Since 2004 the Malacca Sentral (or Melaka Sentral) Bus Terminal, Malaysia’s first air-conditioned bus (state and express) and taxi terminal, has been servicing passengers in Malacca. The express bus, domestic bus and taxi are pooled together in this terminal for the convenience of passengers travelling around Melaka. Another reason of building this terminal is to improve from the previous bus terminal at Jalan Tun Ali, which makes passengers troublesome especially boarding and alighting during the rainy day.
In the bus terminal, city bus is at the right hand side and long distance express bus is at the left hand side from the main entrance of Melaka Sentral Bus Terminal. At the main entrance, you can also see the operators who serves the express bus services in the terminal.
Once you enter the long distance express bus area, you could see the operator directory and ticketing counters from respective bus company. Few popular bus company like KKKL, Causeway Link, Transnasional, Mayang Sari could be found from the directory.
Malacca Sentral serves the express bus service leaving for and coming from Singapore and major cities (like Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Johor Bahru, Ipoh, Mersing etc) in Malaysia. Two most popular and highly sought-after routes are bus from Melaka to Singapore, bus from Melaka to Johor Bahru and bus from Melaka to KL.
Besides that, new routes of Melaka to KLIA/KLIA2 and KLIA/KLIA2 to Melaka provided by Transnasional are welcomed by the tourists coming to Malaysia. In the past, tourist needs to take shuttle bus from airport to KL city before transferring another bus from KL to Melaka. They can now come to Melaka right after landing at Kuala Lumpur Airport by taking Transnasional direct bus without the need to go Kuala Lumpur city and vice versa. This service is extremely convenient to tourists.
There are number of bus operators running the operation in Melaka Sentral, few of the more prominent and long-historic companies are Delima Express, 707 Travel Group, Transnasional, Causeway Link and KKKL.
Malacca Sentral is located at Jalan Tun Razak Malacca Town opposite Tesco. This area is slightly off from the major tourist attractions (A Famosa, The Stadthuys etc) in Melaka. Therefore, most people would either take a cab or domestic bus to city centre (tourist attraction area). Kindly note that some less popular routes are served with irregular interval.
How do get to Malacca Sentral?
There is no LRT network in Malacca. The cheapest way is by domestic bus to get to Malacca Sentral.
Alternatively, you may take a cab, which costs around RM20 per cab from Malacca centre area to Malacca Sentral bus terminal.
