Here’s an excursion to the paradise of vacation- Phuket

Rated 4.40/5 ( based on 6480 reviews )

Travel to Phuket

Being an island, people often wonder how to reach Phuket easily. The best way to reach Phuket is via taking a flight to Phuket International Airport, which is about 32 km from the centre of the city. Phuket is well connected to different parts of the world through flight and bus services. With numerous flights, like: Jet Airways, Thai Airways, Etihad, Singapore Airlines, and more operating to and fro between Phuket and Indian cities, one can conveniently cover the India to Phuket distance of approximately 3000 kms in 3 hours and 40 minutes or more.

Though there are no railway stations in Phuket, one can either take a bus or ferry from Bangkok up to Phuket. Bangkok to Phuket distance is about 840 km. One can either take a bus or ferry from Bangkok to reach Phuket, depending on their budgets and time.

Given below is our information to help tourists know how to go to Phuket, and how to travel from Phuket to different parts of Thailand.

By Air

Taking a flight from some of the major cities of India like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai and Bangalore up to Phuket is one of the best ways to travel from India to Phuket. There are many direct flights available from Delhi to Phuket at a reasonable price. There are connecting flights available from India to Phuket. The nearest airport to Phuket is the Phuket International Airport, which is the busiest airport in Thailand after the Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok. It is well connected to different parts of Thailand. The airport has two terminals in which the terminal-1 is for international flights and terminal-2 is for domestic flights. If one is facing problems in getting flights from India to Phuket, then they can take a flight up to Bangkok and travel to Phuket by air, ferry or road. There are many flights from Bangkok to Phuket daily.

By Road

Traveling to Phuket by bus or car can be quite tedious and time-consuming. India to Phuket route is via Myanmar. There are many documents and other essential reports required for traveling in Myanmar. One needs to pay double the cost of the private conveyance they are traveling with in Myanmar. India to Phuket distance is about 5100 km and it may take days for a person to reach there. However, traveling by road is convenient in Phuket with a number of public conveyances available for people. There are many bus services that connect Phuket with different cities and make it convenient for locals as well as tourists to commute. Pattaya to Phuket distance is about 971 km and traveling by road via bus is an option, however, taking a flight is much more convenient.

This was some information on how to reach Phuket and travel within Thailand to get to see some of the best places and beaches. The city is pleasant with some of the best beaches and spots for water activities. One must visit Phuket once with friends and family.

Mugdha S

Mugdha's 6 days trip to Phuket

Hotel rooms were good, but located in the interior of the property and without a view. Cabs were clean, drivers were punctual and polite. The ontrip app and their ground support was prompt and excellent. The experience with the agent when planning and booking the trip was excellent. But, one t

hing that disappointed us was the customer handling and conflict that happened which showed clear lack of customer focus and satisfaction. We were promised two physical sims, we clearly told our phones don't have esim facility. , We got only 1 sim and it didn't work until we raised a complaint with Matrix. I had to purchase another SIM. Please don't promise anything that you cannot fulfill, this is my feedback to you. There is one specific person named Tarun who esp. was very rude and argumentative. He lacks the ability to listen to customers and solution, which is key to success in this service industry. On the other hand , Ayush was very professional and handled the conflict well

I find Travel Triangle the best platform for holiday trips where you get the choice of choosing the Travel Agent which suits you.

Rahmanshahla's 8 days trip to Phuket

This text offers a profound and sincere insight into the "tangled life" of a solo traveler – the blend of exhilaration and apprehension, along with confronting fears and stereotypes, is remarkably relatable. I returned home safely after an amazing trip to Thailand. We have countless delightful memor

ies from our time in India, not to mention several souvenirs! I appreciate your help with our travel arrangements; everything proceeded exceptionally well. The hotels were excellent, providing a charming combination of modern amenities and heritage. The guides were always eager to impart their knowledge about the attractions we explored and were willing to adapt to our needs.

Preeti's 5 days trip to Phuket

Everything was good , just if there is change in hotel it should be pre- informed otherwise everything was perfect.

Sujeet Kumar

Mumbai

Sujeet's 6 days trip to Phuket

It was a good trip. Relaxing and memorable. Thanks to Travel Triangle and Navigatio Connect Private Limited for planning and support.

Achoubey's 7 days trip to Phuket

Bala Girish

Mumbai

Bala's 7 days trip to Phuket

We had a wonderful and memorable trip overall — thank you for your prompt communication, on-time coordination, and reliable drivers throughout the journey. These parts really made our experience smooth and enjoyable. Lucky ensured to give his best in getting the trip to sail as smooth as possible.

Kudos to him ! There were, however, a few small coordination gaps across different days (infant count on the 4-Island tour, and the airport drop timing mix-up in Phuket). With slightly tighter internal communication and better clarity passed on to the drivers, the experience would easily have been a perfect 10/10.

Arviynd Raizada

Bangalore

Arviynd's 6 days trip to Phuket

Ms.Tapur and Mr Ayush of Navigatio ASIA are great trip planners and advisers.. They were very helpful and patiently customised our itinerary as per our requirements.. Mr Ayush also guided us about visa and on trip requirements.. Navigatio Asia have a local team in Phuket which is an asset for a sea

mless experience... At the start of the trip, we got International SIM for maintaining basic connectivity and easy low/no mark-up Forex card for local usage - both items helped when on the trip. During the trip, the team was very prompt & responsive for any queries that we had. All the transfers were comfortable and well planned. They ensured transport details for next day was shared in advance on regular basis. The hotel accommodation was as per our requirements. The rooms were great & very clean and as requested..Worth the money spent.. Special mention for Baan Lamai Hotel & Resort from where the Patong beach is easily accessible across the road... It was ensured that we get proper vegetarian food at all hotels as well as on the Boat trips.. All the local operators for island hopping were very polite and informative... They even suggested how to maximize the time we had at every location.. For the day at leisure we had support from their team to arrange for rental cab on payment basis which is much better than local Grab taxi service Our vacation was a huge success !! Would highly recommend Navigatio ASIA for planning an unforgettable vacation...

FAQ's of Phuket

What is the best way to reach Phuket?

The best way to reach Phuket is by air. There are many flights available from some of the major cities of India like Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata and New Delhi to Phuket International Airport. These flights consume less time and help in making your travel experience less tiring and within the budget.

What is the best way to get around in Phuket?

The best way to get around in Phuket is by hiring a car or a bike, because the local transportation like tuk-tuk and taxis may charge you more, and it might be difficult to bargain with them every time one has to travel from one place to another. However, understand all the traffic rules very well before going for the driving experience.
