ddoff Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I'm planning to fly to Phuket airport and to go straight from there to Krabi. What is the most efficient (both time- and moneywise) way to get there? As I understand, it is easy to get to Krabi from Phang-Nga, but how to get to Phang-Nga from the airport?

And going to Phuket town adds 40 km in one direction and 40 km back - -does it make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyGreaves Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Yes same issue. I am paying for 5 people and 5000 baht return * 5 BKK - Krabi as opposed to 1500 * 5 (airasia) BKK-Phuket. So would like to get 5 people to Krabi after 1 afternoon/night relaxing phuket. What's the best option again: air-con regular coach ,(about 150bt, 4 hrs)? Any Ferries? Taxi ?

Regards JOhn <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We were in krabi in Feb 2005. We arrived at Phuket airport and we took a taxi from the airport to Ao Nang. The trip took one and a half hours and cost 2000 baht. There is no need to reserve the taxi in advance, there are plenty waiting outside the arrivals terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
