Penang to Medan Gopeng Ipoh Destination Reviews

WB
Bus was nice enough but the journey time was completely inaccurate. It took over 4 hours and was supposed to take around 2. Traffic was minimal so don’t see how we would have ever arrived in the time they said.

Decent aircon. No WiFi. No sockets I could see. Left on time. Journey delayed by an extra 45 mins due to traffic. Was a full bus. Okay.

When I got to the bus company I was sent on the wrong bus (KL instead of Ipoh). Before entering and on the bus I'd ask the staff several times if this was the bus going to Ipoh, which they confirmed. And yet, when someone checked tickets (after one hour) I was told to get off the bus and wait for 30 minutes to get on the right bus. When I finally got on the right bus, there was no seat with the number printed on my ticket. So I ended up being moved around until a staff member finally gave me a seat that hadn't been booked.

Despite there being large no smoking signs all over the bus. The driver smoked while driving with the window open 5cm. Even wearing a mask the smell burned.
