With the opening of borders to Johor Bahru, you’re probably planning to visit our favourite shopping and eating haven soon.

But.

But.

Is visiting now worth the massive crowd on buses into JB?

For those who are facing this issue, I’ve got something good for you.

Other than driving your own vehicles and taking public buses to JB, you now have another option to travel; via taxis.

And the prices aren’t exorbitant.

The taxi service will drop you off at Johor Larkin Taxi Station

It costs S$12 per pax to get onto the taxi. If you’re going in a group of four, that’s like renting your own vehicle to cross the borders in comfort for less than S$50.

Of course, be prepared to share the cab if you’re travelling in a group of fewer than four pax.
