00:09To board the night bus, you need to arrive early at the ticket booth on the right side of Sung
00:15Gaiwang Plaza to exchange your ticket.
00:18After exchanging your ticket, you can go to the lane in front to ask for the bus number.
00:23Around 8 to 10 buses will stop at the entrance at the same time, each with a different number.
00:30The ticket booth will provide the number.
00:32If you arrive early, you can queue up next to the corresponding bus.
00:38Generally, queuing early increases your chances of getting a front row seat on the upper deck, based on the order
00:44of arrival.
00:46Basically, one person, one seat.
00:49The roof area is quite cool, so if you're worried about catching a cold or a training, you can wear
00:55a light jacket.
00:56The scenery around the bus was quite nice, but in some places, seats might be taken, so everyone usually waits
01:04on the bus.
01:05Although the announcements on the bus introduce the attractions in English, the volume is low, so it's recommended to familiarize
01:13yourself with the attractions beforehand to better understand them.
01:18Tourists from many countries take this bus.
01:21If you have limited time and don't have much opportunity to explore, you can choose the night bus.
01:27The weather is cool, and you can see all of Kuala Lumpur's major landmarks in one trip.
01:34I was sitting in a seat in the rooftop area of the bus, waiting for departure, when I was told
01:40that my ticket didn't allow me to sit in that area, and I was moved inside.
01:45The staff then told me that if I entered the rooftop area, I would be asked to get off the
01:51bus.
01:52Once the tour started, I could only see the lower parts of the towers, and I could only take pictures
01:58from inside the dirty windows, which made me feel uncomfortable.
02:02With the windows and doors closed, I couldn't even feel the slightest breeze, and I spent nearly two hours in
02:10agony.
02:10I would have been better off getting around by grab on my own.
02:14My friend didn't say anything to me since I had arranged the tour, but there was an awkward atmosphere throughout
02:21the tour.
02:23After placing the order, I received the e-voucher quickly, and exchanging it for the bus ticket was also very
02:30fast.
02:31The queue started at 7.30 p.m., but there were only about five to six buses for the night
02:38tour.
02:38There were no special signs on the front of the buses, and no staff, so passengers had to ask at
02:45each one, leading to some queue jumping.
02:48The bus departed promptly at 8 p.m.
02:52Although the night tour was more comfortable than the daytime tour, the cool breeze still gave me a headache.
02:58The two-hour night tour included stops for photos at some attractions, but unfortunately, we couldn't stop at the Petronas
03:06Twin Towers for photos.
03:09The night view of Kuala Lumpur is beautiful.
03:12It's definitely worth experiencing, but I didn't know that arriving early would allow me to reserve a seat at the
03:19counter, so I ended up having to sit inside, which was a real shame.
03:24The title is a bit off, but while other buses stopped at the first stop, the most beautiful Kuala Lumpur
03:31Tower, Manara KL Tower, our bus didn't stop and went straight to the next stop.
03:37Be ready to take photos to capture the most beautiful night view.
03:42Securing your seat an hour before the meeting time is essential.
03:47Check in with your voucher.
03:49Book an outdoor seat.
03:50Once your reservation is set, kill time by wandering around a nearby shopping mall.
03:57Experience the 360 degrees panorama.
04:01Great photos too.
04:03I was able to take lots of pictures of the towers changing colors and from various angles.
04:09Sitting inside isn't worth it, so the outside is the only option.
