  • Ferry and Coach: There is no direct road link due to the South China Sea separating Borneo from Peninsular Malaysia. Travelers may first take a ferry or a connecting flight to Peninsular Malaysia (e.g., Johor Bahru or Kuala Lumpur), then proceed to Ipoh by express bus or train. The total duration varies but could take upwards of 12-18 hours, depending on transfer times.
  • Combination of Flights and Ground Transport: Book a flight from Kuching to Kuala Lumpur, and then connect to Ipoh via a domestic flight or take a train (ETS) from KL Sentral to Ipoh, which typically takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes by train from Kuala Lumpur.
