One of the best transportation means in Indonesia is bus. Compared to having stuck congestion on the street and paying more, most local residents prefer to travel by bus. The number of buses available is also quite a lot with buses arriving almost every 15 minutes. One thing I suggest is book your bus ticket first from redbus.id�because every day bus tickets were sold out quickly. This website offers tickets at a wide range of buses such as economy, express and VIP. Travel by bus will cost between Rp 50.000, - to Rp 200.000, - it all depends on the class of buses booked.I recommend you to book an express bus because this type of bus has fewer stops and will certainly take you to the destination faster, if you are being chased the time. You can book a ticket on an economy bus, if you're saving your spending. The VIP bus is a separate bus class with seating and is equipped with movies and snacks. Book your bus ticket now and plan a fun holiday.

It is a 24 storey building with its ground floor exclusively dedicated for boarding and arrival of buses.

Not to forget if you reach too early there is also a moview theatre here with a seating capacity of about 1500. You can catch up on your favourite movies here to kill time. The tower is located in one of the most prime areas of Singapore and is quite easy to reach via an Intercity Bus. In the vicinity of Golden Mile tower there are shopping malls like Bugis Junction, Bugis Cube and the very popular Suntek City Mall.
