The road
Route 402 south all the way into town. No tolls; the Central Phuket junction is the slow part in the afternoon.
Worth stopping
- Old Town’s Thalang and Soi Romanee streets are narrow — the driver drops you at the nearest point.
Good to know
- Honest note: the airport bus to Phuket Town and the Smart Bus are much cheaper (about ฿100 per person, airporttransferportal.com, July 2026); metered taxis also cost less than our fixed price. With us: name sign, waiting time, the same price at night.
- We follow your flight number: the 60 minutes of free waiting start when the plane actually lands.
- Toyota Alphard ($100): captain seats and room for up to 5 people with luggage — the usual choice for families and business travellers who want a quiet, roomy ride. Same driver standard, same inclusions.
