Taxi From Singapore To Tioman Island
Location of Tioman Island
Inside a group of islands off the east coast of Malaysia you’ll find a tiny hidden world called Tioman Island. You can reach the islands by land transport, the only modes of transportation being either the more popular ferry or small planes.
Most travellers choose to travel to the Mersing Ferry Terminal by private taxi before taking a boat to the island. If you are traveling from Singapore, it’s approximately 148km or just about 2-hour direct drive.
At Mersing Jetty, you’ll board a boat with 1 to 2 hours of travel time on the water to reach the island itself.
