It is easiest for a tourist to buy a metro ticket in Kuala Lumpur through ticket machines at stations. They sell single-use plastic tokens. Here is a step-by-step guide:
1. Single ticket (token): Go to the machine (there are almost no ticket offices left at stations). On the touch screen, select your destination station. The machine will show the fare. Insert cash (banknotes and coins, it is better to have coins of 1 and 5 ringgit). The machine will give change in coins and a plastic token. At the entrance, tap it on the reader; at the exit at your station, insert it into the slot of the turnstile.
2. Touch 'n Go transport card: This is the most convenient option if you plan to use the metro for several days. The card costs 10 ringgit (non-refundable deposit). You can buy it at metro stations, 7-Eleven or MyNews stores. Then you need to top it up with cash at the same machines or ticket offices. At entry and exit, simply tap the card on the turnstile β the fare is deducted automatically.
Important for tourists from Russia and China: UnionPay cards do not work in city metro machines (LRT, MRT, monorail). They are only accepted at the KLIA Express airport train. Therefore, you cannot do without a Touch 'n Go card or cash.
