How to get to Kulai
-
By car, taxi or Grab:
the most straightforward option. If you’re driving from Singapore, both Woodlands and Tuas checkpoints are about the same distance away.
-
By bus:
you can hop onto a bus straight to the Johor Premium Outlets via JPO2 (Woodlands Checkpoint, RM4.50, departs every three hours starting from 9am) or JPO3 (Tuas Checkpoint, RM6, departs every three hours starting from 10.30am).
Both journeys last around 45 minutes, and cash or Visa are both accepted. After that, it’s just a short 5-minute Grab ride to the town of Kulai.
-
By train :
there are no direct trains from Singapore to Kulai. However, you can get a 45-minute train from JB Sentral station four times a day.
