Getting around Kuala Lumpur

Arriving in KL by bus from Singapore this afternoon and unsure about the best transportation. Friends suggested Grab, but we're worried about the cost.

The KLIA Transit train is a good option from the airport if your bus drops you near there. It's faster and often cheaper than Grab for longer distances. For shorter hops around the city center, the LRT (Light Rail Transit) and MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) are efficient and affordable. Grab can be useful for point-to-point travel, especially at night or to areas not well-served by public transport, but plan your routes carefully to minimize costs. Consider using the GoKL free bus service if you're sightseeing in the city center – it covers many tourist spots.

Check out the food stalls near the Faculty of Medicine. They're super popular with students and the food is usually pretty decent and cheap. Also, wander around the residential colleges – some have little canteens or mamaks that are surprisingly good. Look for places that are busy with students – that's usually a good sign of quality and hygiene. Avoid anything that looks too quiet or deserted. And honestly, just exploring the area a bit will turn up some gems. You'll likely stumble upon some great little places you wouldn't find online.

That's great advice! I hadn't thought about checking out the residential colleges. I usually just stick to the main campus area. Thanks for the tip about looking for busy places – that makes total sense. I'll definitely explore a bit more – sounds like a fun lunch-time adventure.
