Bus ticket counters at Kuala PerlisAnother option is to go to the nearby Kangar Bus Station where there are much more frequent departures.
To travel from Kuala Perlis to Kangar you can either take a taxi or get one of the Maraliner buses that leave from K. Perlis to Kangar.
Or you can ask one of the long distance buses to take you there (costs around 5 MYR - they will not sell you a ticket at the counter - you just have to ask one of the bus drivers).
