The last few weeks ago, I had been in Alor Setar for working purposes. During that period I was there, my colleague and I experienced a chance to travel to Thailand on weekends.
There are two ways to reach Hatyai. You can either drive all the way to Hatyai if you support the travelling insurance (around RM20 only) or you can park your car nearby the Malaysia's custom building and travel to Hatyai by van.
I advised you to travel by van cuz the fare is very cheap which is only costing around 60BAHT for one way from Danuk to Hatyai. Assume that 10BAHT = RM1 and 100BAHT = RM10. Hence it is only RM6. Cheap! Plus the parking near the custom building is free of charge. However, you need to walk for 15-20mins from the Malaysia's custom to Thailand's custom/Danuk to find that van.
