Most visitors start at Phuket International Airport (HKT). The car rental centre is in the arrivals hall - 2 minutes from baggage. If you are staying in Patong, Kata or Karon, you can also select hotel delivery. This is popular in high season when you don't want to queue at the airport.
Popular locations:
All locations allow different drop-off. You can pick up at HKT and drop off in Patong.
Driving in Phuket is on the left. Roads are well-paved around the airport and west coast, but can be steep and winding around Paton Hill and Big Buddha. A small car is easy to park, an SUV is more comfortable if you plan to explore the north of the island or Phang Nga.
You will need:
Traffic drives on the left and motorbikes are everywhere. Take it slow at night and avoid driving after heavy rain.
All cars come with air conditioning. Book early for December - April high season.
