Question

How well-developed are regular taxis or public transport in Phuket for getting comfortably to shopping malls or attractions?

Insider's Response

The transportation system in Phuket is well-developed, and there are several options for getting to your desired location.

Taxis and tuk-tuks are the most convenient options. They are fast and comfortable, with tuk-tuks being suitable for short trips.

Public transport, known as “Songthaew” – a small bus that follows specific routes – is a cheaper option.

Tours and transfers: Many hotels and tour companies offer transfer services to attractions and shopping malls.

Renting a bike or car: This gives you the freedom to travel without relying on schedules or drivers.
