Travel Blogs from Johor Bahru, Malaysia
Malaysia - Overview
This is a top pick! ... Malaysian Borneo as well so we can enjoy the rainforest experience. It outstrips its neighbour Thailand in all departments and is a real gem of the Orient. For a stunningly varied trip head to Malaysia, but be prepared for some serious ...
Last Stop In Malaysia
This is a top pick! We caught a bus and made it to our last stop in Malaysia, "Johor Bahru" for 2 nights. Stopped at one museum for a little history and then some shopping and a ...
Stark
This is a top pick! Jackie ran me in to Auckland City Centre to collect my airline tickets from the Sunday collection booth (long story) then it was back over to the airport for another goodbye. She'll never know it but I have such a lot to thank her for. As life-shaping ...
Across the Border
This is a top pick! ... a Yellow cab across the border into Malaysia. We completed all the customs forms again and went through the Woodlands Checkpoint. Shopping in Johor Bahru was interesting and we picked up some dodgey DVDs. We also got a cab down to Danga Bay but as ...
Malaysian Tijuana
This is a top pick! ... a week we had denied ourselves much free time, so he offered - or rather, insisted - that we accompany him to his home in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, for a little break. Johor Bahru, commonly known as JB, is a small town that Jun fondly refers to as his ...
Scouring
This is a top pick! I took a walk last night before retiring to the dorm. I wanted to experience more of the 'living dead' chaos I'd first been introduced to upon my untimely arrival. I walked alone, along the streets of Little India, soaking up the atmosphere: the ...
R and R in JB
This is a top pick! JOHOR BAHRU Having concluded our immediate work in Sri Lanka, we set off to resume our original travels. As hard as it was to separate ourselves from the Sri Lanka project -- which, of course, is far from being over -- we left our friends in Singapore ...
'Get in ma belly, belly!'
This is a top pick! 'Only after the last tree has been cut down... Only after the last river has been poisoned... Only after the last fish has been caught... Only then will you find that money, cannot be eaten...' - An old Cree Indian saying By the time I'd ...
Like a Japanese Flag
This is a top pick! ... throughout the night and for keeping my water topped up while I slept. To Shannon - for our brief moment before she left for Malaysia (and for sewing a new button on my pants.) And to the wild and wonderful Karen for making the whole experience a much ...
Airports!
This is a top pick! (Back to Singapore airport.. i forgot to add) Singapore airport was amazing. There is so much to do. In the middle of the airport i especially liked the mini rainforest, and those goldfish are the largest ive seen in my life! we were there for a five ...
Just Killing time
This is a top pick! Nothing worth mentioning happened in Johor Bahru, except that there was a crazy Japanese guy in the hostel i stayed in. Just somewhere to wait for my flight. The guide books describe it as a place with no tourist vaue, and to be honest i'd have to agree. ...
Johor Bahru
This is a top pick! Hi Guys, You can read our update from Johor Bahru in our entry from Cairns, Australia entitled 'Coast to Coast to Coast'. Cheers, K & ...
our day trip - part one!!
... short on time in singapore we fitted then both into yesterday!! we got up early and caught the express bus to Johur Bahru in Maylasia (its right at the southermost point of the maylasian peninsular) which you get to by just driving over a causeway ...
Malaysia
... inside of it, but that's a start at least. Point to be made: it made me feel much better with my decision of venturing into Malaysia. I tipped my driver fairly well. It was the appropriate way to thank him for the advice on how to get a bus to KL. Once ...
Singapore, Malaysia
Again, Singapore provided us with an amazing hotel for 3 nights ... YES that was 3 NIGHTS in the SAME bed!!! How exciting. Plus the hotel atrium had some very cool lanterns thingys ... again I think the colours attracted us! Our hotel also had a cool ...
Mini trip to Malaysia
... going through counters & x-ray machines like at the airport - scarey when you see the staff carrying guns too! Malaysia is definitely the poorer country, the official buildings (like Customs etc) were dirty and unkempt - the toilets were pretty ...
Shop 'til You Drop!
Hellllllo Johor Bahru! Malaysia welcomes us with some warm weather and a very chill and relaxing atmosphere. Tommi, Jarmo and I took a bus from Singapore to Jorhor, got lost in some funky bus plaza and finally found our way to a quaint little hostel. ...
Livin' in luxury
For the last three days, Simon and I have been enjoying the luxury provided by my wonderful 'Uncle' Peter and Liz in Johor Bahru- as of tomorrow, there will be no more air-conditioning, no more peanut butter, and no more comfy pillows :( But, it's a ...
...Commander in chief of my pimp ship..
Arrived at Larkin bus station in Johor Bahru at about 7.30am very tired and weiry! We jumped in a taxi and went to Meldrum Way, where after looking at a couple of places decided to book a room at Meldrum Hotel for 84RM a night. Once we had put our ...
JB, Nicest border town yet
... walls left something to be desired, we did enjoy the little bit of time we spent walking around Johor Bahru, on the far southeastern corner of peninsular Malaysia. We took the train there from Kuala Lumpur starting early Monday morning, and we arrived ...
Fags on a Fuel boat
... to! ...and what a good decision it turned out to be. It only took about 4 hours to get from the Singapore/Malaysia border to the jetty where the Island boat picks you up from. And after the texting the resort on my arrival, they immediately ...
Johor Bahru
... . The airport was cool & spacious. Just time for a chicken & noodle dish before the short (45 min) flight to Johor Bahru. JB is just adjacent to Singapore on the Malaysian mainland and hence flights to here are much cheaper than international ones. ...
My Trip to Malaysia
Feb. 19 to 29, 2008 Me and my family drove around Malaysia. We rented a van in Johor Bahru and then drove north to Melaka and stayed over night. I learned that Melaka was an important trading port for many centuries. Then we drove to Kuala Lumpur in ...
Trip Cancelled, coming home
Quick message, I'll fill in details once I'm home. GOt sick again, went to hospital, was discharged and I'll be home in a couple days. I'm excited to see everyone but sad about missing most of Malaysia, Singapore and China. See you ...
Johor Bahru
Johor Bahru, the last bastion of cheap food, and indeed of Malaysia. The 10p bus we caught to Singapore involved several arduous stop overs, getting on, going through immigration and baggage searches, and having to empty our prized possessions on tables ...
Great sleep at the airport *pause* NOT
So last night was so relaxing and so restful in the airport.... Not so much. Anywho, I did actually rest a bit here and there, and it wasn't freezing like the airport in Bangkok was when I spent the night there about a month or so, what ...
Visiting Gary's Roots
... except Malaysia key rings. Typical, the one time you actually want to find some tourist souvenirs, they are nowhere to be seen. Johor Bahru itself (or JB as the locals call it) isn’t much of a tourist city, probably as it’s on the ...
Welcome to Tijuana
... .....No This place seems more like.....uh.....well....Tijuana." So It's not just that Singaporians are used to a perfectly manicured Island, Johor Bahru really is a shit-hole. The first thing you do after you walk out of the bus station is walk under a ...
Jahor Bahru - Kuala Lumpur
14/02/2009 Sorted passports for Malaysia and headed to Jahor Bahru train station. The train journey up to KL came recommended and it was pretty impressive cruising through the palm plantations, lush jungle and small ...
