Hi JJ, I know I know what you mean lolx… So you just wanna play safe by getting the information yourself first 😀 Rest assured their service level is generally quite good, at least in getting information. The counter in First World Hotel has about 10 to 20 staffs. If one gives you that heck-care attitude, move to the last one! 😉

thanks alot! was worried that the First World hotel staff would hv a heck care attitude haha

Hi JJ,

I believe they are in the same building but i have never been there nor take the cable car. You can ask the reception upon your arrival and they would be able to advise you instantly. It is kind of easy to get information over there from the staffs so no worries 😉

my initial plan was to go to Lower Station (B4) and buy a ticket from there. unfortunately, on the day that i leave genting , the cable car will be closed for maintenance 🙁 so im worried i cant get to Lower Station.

RW website says there is a shuttle bus to replace the cable car during shut down. The shuttle bus plys Genting Skyway Complex (Level T1) and Genting Grand

do u know if Genting Skyway Complex (Level T1) and Lower Station (B4) are in the same building?

thx alot!

Hi JJ,

Thanks for leaving a comment! 🙂

RM 4.60/pax is not the cheapest from RW Express Bus (Red) because based on a quick online search, the website below offers a relatively lower rate from Genting Skyway Lower Station (B4) RM 3.50 to Puduraya (KL Chinatown) and RM 3.30 to KL Sentral. In order to get to Genting Skyway Lower Station (B4), you have to use a cable car which cost RM 5.00 per trip.

Before you decide on the above, I have a few suggestions for you which you could try to see whether you can get a better rate.

1) Go to Transtar Express located near to Resort World and ask them on the rate from Genting to KL. I have no idea how much it cost and whether they provide such a short journey.

2) Take a free shuttle bus service right infront of First World Hotel (far left corner and the farthest bus lane away from First World Hotel) during normal operation hours, go to Mushroom Farm Terminal and check all the rates they offer from Genting to KL. There are approximately 10 counters there of different bus companies so I am sure you would be able to get a good rate from one of them.

Assuming all the bus companies do not go KL, you still have a backup plan to take the cable car to Genting Skyway Lower Station (B4). The tricky part here is whether you should buy the ticket in ADVANCE from Genting Skyway Lower Station (B4) to ensure seats on the actual day (which means you have to take the cable car 2 times x RM 5.00 just to get a KL bus ticket), OR you could get it on that day of your departure (which is risky).

The last suggestion is to ask the reception of the hotel which you stay – whether you would be able to get a bus ticket without taking the cable car. At least now you have a rough guide that it would cost less than RM 10.00 to go to KL.

I hope my suggestions help and you could probably leave me a comment after you come back on how you get your KL ticket and how much it cost! Looking forward to hear from you 🙂

I wish you a pleasant journey and have fun in Genting! 😀

i read that we can buy bus ticket from Genting Skyway Lower Station (B4). it is for Genting Express (red bus) and costs RM4.60/pax. is this the cheapest way?

thanks!

Hi Shirley, I hope to give another perspective on the importance of insurance and to encourage others to invest in their travel security.
