Ipoh: Getting Around

Getting around in Ipoh was something that was easy for us due to the fact that we had a car. However, we did notice that there were no train railways that ran over the towns in Ipoh, and we only caught a glimpse or two of a few buses turning corners at junctions.

Although the best way to get around Ipoh is to walk (the town areas are small enough to cover on foot), there are several public bus services available. It may be worthwhile to take note that there are several "main spots" in Ipoh: 
  • Kidd Road (Medan Kidd)
  • KTM Ipoh Railway Station
  • Perak Cave
  • Kampung Tawas
  • Persiaran Tasek
  • Tesco / Jusco (Kinta City)
  • Pantai Hospital Ipoh
  • Giant Hypermarket
  • Lost World of Tambun
The bus fare is typically RM2.00 per person (although the fare varies according to the bus ridden), and as most cover the main areas in Ipoh, there should be no real trouble in getting around the city. Furthermore, there are plenty of taxis available!
