  1. kelso4 near here? https://www.google.com/maps/@8.1094789,98.3354942,316a,35y,354.4h,44.95t/data=!3m1!1e3
  2. We priced it awhile ago and flying direct to Krabi was significantly more expensive, especially for 4 tickets.
  3. pagallim thx - if she nixes any type of van/taxi for her own reasons, I will look into this. I'd at least rather take a taxi in the right direction to catch a bus at the terminal ????
  4. Richard gotcha, thanks for clarification. A private car/van would be an nice option, if I could convince her. We've taken 'public' mini-bus rides before, and they usually pack in 10-12 people, but if it's just us that would make a difference. I will check Bolt or another means once we are in our Phuket hotel. We arrive at night so are staying one night at a Phuket hotel near the airport, heading to Krabi the next day.
  5. I can't argue there, I do tend to be that way when visiting Thailand. I think it's a natural defense mechanism from paying the "skin tax" so many times.
  6. UPDATE - my wife doesn't like the mini van rides. Too fast, too cramped. I think we are stuck with the bus. Maybe price Bolt once we are there and show her that. She has also sworn off the ferry, she thinks it is too windy/dangerous in June. I think she is naturally gravitated towards whatever is the most complex and costs the most. It's a gift ????
  7. FriendlyFarang that's a solid idea I will look into that, thank you.
  8. Hi, Is there a way to catch the big bus to Krabi right from the Phuket Airport district? The main bus terminals all seem to be far away south from the Airport, opposite direction as Krabi (airport hotel quoted 650b to taxi to bus terminal). I'm wondering if we have to taxi down to the bus terminals, to then just bus back up where we just were, or is there a "bus stop" near the Airport district that will pick up passengers on their way to Krabi? We will have luggage, we are a family of four. We live in America. I have a Thai wife from Krabi, and two kids. We used to live in Krabi, but never been to Phuket. You would think she might know this, but nah, not a chance! I have to figure it all out as if she's from Iceland or Kenya ???? Thanks, Scotty
