Hi



We were staying in Kata Beach and we took a metered taxi from the airport - cost 450B. A lot cheaper than the other ';taxi%26#39;s';. We had to pay 600B to get back to the airport from Kata as we weren%26#39;t sure how to get a metered taxi back again (didn%26#39;t see any around town). When you exit Phuket airport, turn right and walk all the way to the end. You will see the sign for metered taxis and you book at the window. Karon might be 400B as it is the next beach up.

do exactly as Sony recommends. Just heard last night that the taxis have increased their prices. Eg from the airport to Kata it now costs 800 baht and to Chalong/Rawai 700 baht!!





For your trip back to the airport try and get a business card or telephone number for the meter taxis. Their numbers are not even listed in our local directory!





Have a good holiday!

I think rental a car with company outside the Airport is cheaper.



They accept both of driving licenses.%26lt;international or standard%26gt;




Try booking one of the local guides. We always use Mr sam. he is reliable, honest, reasonably priced, speaks great English and lots of fun. You can get to know him on your trip from the airport and then hire him as your driver during your stay. Well worth it.. HE WILL ALSO GREET YOU AT THE AIRPORT, NO HASSLES



you can email him at: samthailand@gmail.com



good luck
