Booked a ride to Genting Highlands one day in advance. The driver was very punctual, the trip was smooth and enjoyable, and we had a pleasant chat along the way. Thank you for the great service. Highly recommended!

Everything went smoothly for the transfer from Kuantan to KL. The transport provider emailed me and the driver Mr Jaya WhatsApp me one day before the trip. Even though the pickup was scheduled for 12 noon, we saw Mr Jaya’s van parked beside the hotel at 10.30am. Mr Jaya was patient, giving my elderly parents time to slowly board and alight from the van. He was also considerate, stopping twice during the 4.5-hour journey for us to take toilet breaks. He also helped us to load and unload our luggage and bags, and drove carefully, ensuring our safety.

Excellent service. The driver arrived early and kindly assisted us with our luggage. We were also able to clear customs more quickly as we used the bus lane, making the journey smooth and hassle-free.

I had a pleasant experience taking the Leo City bus from Singapore to Desaru. The booking process was simple and straightforward, and the pickup point was easy to find. The bus arrived on time and the journey was smooth and comfortable throughout. The seats were reasonably comfortable, and the driver was professional and drove safely. Immigration clearance was manageable, and the overall travel time was as expected. The service was convenient for travelers heading to Desaru without the hassle of driving. It was a cost-effective and relaxing way to travel between Singapore and Malaysia. I appreciated the organized arrangements and clear instructions provided before the trip. Overall, I am satisfied with the experience and would consider using this service again for future visits to Desaru. I would also recommend it to friends and family looking for a convenient transport option.

Arrived on 1/2/2026 for the New Year. Arrived early in the morning before the opening time of 10:00 am. Even though it was early, the check-in counter was already open. Exactly at 10:00 am, the gate was opened for customers & our family was the first to enter…very smooth & easy…All games can be used except the Swarf Wall (was informed early during check-in)…Very satisfied to be able to play all the games…very safe for children…always guarded by Lifeguards at almost every game….almost all children's water games must wear safety jackets…Very satisfied bathing here…Fun & satisfying experience. queue time: easy for online booking booking facility on Klook: very easy facilities: very comfortable price: reasonable

When we visited the place, only 6 of us book for a tour. The place was so quite n peaceful. We are so lucky to see the firefly with the bonus of seeing the monkey n a monitor lizard. We are also so lucky that 1 curious firefly went inside our boat n come close to us. Its a very nice experience for the younger generation to see the real firefly specially my son. He was so happy n we are so grateful. Our tour guide was so good and friendly. You will never get bored hearing all the information that she was telling to us. For me its worth a visit😊

What to know before visiting Kota Tinggi

Quick snapshot of Kota Tinggi and what to do

Kota Tinggi is a compact getaway best known for water-based fun and outdoor adventure: water parks, cruises and water activities lead bookings here, with a smaller share for guided tours and sports. Demand on Klook shows a clear yearly rhythm, with visitor numbers much higher in certain months and quieter in others.

Best months to visit and how prices move

According to Klook booking data, November is the busiest month while August is the quietest. Prices are fairly stable for most of the year, with a small peak around February and the lowest typical prices usually in June. If you prefer lower prices and fewer people, consider visiting in June or August when demand is lower; if you want the lively peak-season atmosphere and bigger crowds, aim for November. Overall, demand and prices mostly move independently here—crowds spike in November even though prices remain broadly steady across many months.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia

Most visitors from Malaysia book very close to travel dates: typical bookings happen about one day ahead, and many experiences are available last-minute. That makes Kota Tinggi a good option for flexible, short-notice trips—look for water park and cruise options that can be reserved a day or two before you go. If you plan to travel in November, consider locking in key activities a few days earlier to secure spots during the busiest period.
