Discover Selangor Through Its Very Own Hop-On Hop-Off Tour Bus
Great news! Visitors to Selangor will soon have a new option to tour the state, via its newly launched Hop-On Hop-Off (HOHO) bus. Spotting an eye-catching blue, red and yellow livery, the HOHO bus is part of the state’s “Pusing Selangor Dulu” campaign with the objective to boost the development of tourism.
Selangor’s very first HOHO tour bus was launched at IOI City Mall on 20th May 2023 by the Honourable Mr Hee Loy Sian, EXCO of Tourism and Environment in Selangor. This HOHO tour bus service allows both local visitors as well as international tourists to do some sightseeing and shopping in Selangor during their long transit or layover at KLIA or KLIA2 while waiting for their next flight.
Using the Hop-On Hop-Off bus, visitors can easily tour Selangor at their own leisurely pace, hopping off to check out a tourist spot of their choice before hopping on the next bus to continue their tour.
The Selangor HOHO bus tours will be available every Saturday and Sunday from 9.30am to 9.30pm starting from 4th June 2023. Equipped with live commentary, the partially open-top bus will bring passengers to visit various tourist attractions and points of interest in Selangor.
