Singapore Bangkok Trains
By train from Madrid to Bangkok?
I'm thinking of going on an adventure in Southeast Asia. I want to fly to Singapore and take the train to Bangkok that covers a period of two weeks. I have some questions: 1 Is the ride (long) picturesque? 2 I am on a budget. Is there some kind of affordable style Eurorail pass you can get that work in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand? 3 Are the trains safe? Thanks!
Lol the first guy obviously does not know anything about it. What an ass. Well I recently traveled from Singapore to Phuket (Do not worry, the train's route is the same). I bought a train ticket from Johor Malaysia, as the price of the ticket is 50% cheaper due to currency differences. 1. From Singapore ……. Take a train to Woodland or Kranji, and board a public bus to the custom. From there, into Malaysia. Johor (Malaysia), the train station is quite close to the custom zone, walking is a problem that does not. So get a train ticket from Johor is much more get cheaper than in Singapore. You have to buy a ticket to KL. It takes 7 hours to get there. Scenario is not very good though. 2. Once you get to KL, buy a ticket train ticket to Butterworth and Butterworth to Sulat tani (Thailand). Must be a sleeper train, well berths. When you awaken, is likely to reach Butterworth. Butterworth no has nothing, but you can take a ferry to Penang to eat and sightseeing. Why? because you have enough time before your next trip. So, Penang for fun. There is quite retro. Once you think it is time to return to Butterworth, get the ferry back. (The ferry is just a simple transport back as only a small amount) 3. Aboard the train and the way you go (This is the train to Bangkok … long trip). Now the landscape here is pretty good. Fields and so on. After hours of making the usual train inbetween Thailand and Malaysia. Once you do that, you have to address again the exact train. This time it will offer dinner, and then that will make your bunk. The dream of going. For you it is all the way to Hua Lam Pong station. So do not worry about missing your stop. Hope that helps … greetings!
