Getting to Phuket Airport by Taxi


Transfer from any beach of Phuket to the Airport is best done by a taxi that your hotel recommends.
Prices for a taxi range from 550 Baht (Surin Beach) to 1000 Baht (Nai Harn Beach). 
For a van the rate is about 50% higher. 

Please do NOT take an illegal taxi with a white number plate.
We recommend:
Book your taxi from Khao Lak to the Airport in advance by internet
-- from Internet Booking Service Khao Lak, if you want to come very safely by Taxi Number 171 or by SUV by Miss Beauty (for 3 passengers) or by safe minibus
--->  send your transfer request to Amy Minne: khaolaktransfer(at)gmail.com
Transfer from Khao Lak to
Phuket Airport is only possible by Taxi 

NO public transport exists from Khao Lak to Phuket International Airport.

The only recommendable means of transport is by taxi which takes about 70 minutes, depending on the location of your hotel.

There are 3 options for taxis:

1)  Book the transfer from your hotel. This is only rarely a private taxi. Mostly you have to go by minibus which picks up guests from several hotels so that you have to endure a long trip through Khao Lak before the taxi departs to the airport.
We do NOT recommend this nerve racking service.

2)  We also do NOT recommend to take a private car or an illegal taxi from stalls along the road, even when they carry fancy names. They have a white number plate for a private car and have NO taxi license and NO insurance for a taxi.

3)  Transfer by legal Taxi
From Khao Lak to Phuket Airport with safe and legal taxi drivers

Taxi Number 171 - Services
Tel.: 099-3174242
Taxi Number 171 (เท็กซี) (KhaoLak)

Miss Pimmanee (nickname Jiab) obtained the first legal taxi license in Khao Lak in 2009.
It took 10 long, long months to get the green number plate with the number 1 (later by government order changed to 67). She had to pass a difficult taxi driver course and had to fulfill many unforeseen requirements like a real garage for her car. Her taxi has a first class insurance (300 Baht per trip).
Miss Pimmanee is very friendly and speaks enough English to communicate with her passengers.
The transfer from Phuket Airport to Khao Lak costs 1700 Baht per trip for 2 persons.
If passengers get delayed she wants to be informed by a telephone call or by SMS.
If you did not book your hotel with the help of Internet Booking Service Khao Lak, you may still use the taxi service of Khun Pimmanee by mailing to khaolaktransfer@gmail.com

Taxi Number 171


Miss Chananya

Only cars with a green number plate are registered taxis
and only company minibuses with a yellow number plate are legal minibus taxis

Registered taxi drivers are fully insured, including a first class insurance for the passengers.
An accident will be handed over immediately to the insurance whose agent handles the case professionally according to international standards. 
An accident will remain an unpleasant event, but not develop into a nightmare.

Every private car insurance becomes invalid when the car is used as a means of transport for tourists. Don't expect you can convince the police that you are family members or close friends -- they find out the truth easily.
What a high risk for a Thai friend who offers to take you to the airport with his own private car!
Whoever tells you that this is not true, has never made the experience himself.


The first green taxi number plate of Khao Lak
(issued Nov. 2009,
now changed to number 171):
Fully insured taxi of 
Mrs. Chananya,
1600 Baht per Airport trip,
and fully insured taxi of
Mr. Gaeng for 2000 Baht,
both taxis driving very safely for Internet Booking Service
Khao Lak

If you want to use the taxi "Number 171" of Khun Chananya for a pleasant, joyful drive back to the airport, for 1600 Baht for 2 passengers, or the SUV of Miss Beauty, for only 2000 Baht for 3 or 4 passengers, then please click here.


If you wish to book a rental car for a longer period and want to drive to Khao Lak yourself, we highly recommend Airport Car Rent which has the office exactly opposite the exit gate of the Airport.

Dairy Hut Seafood (แดรี่ ฮัท ซีฟู้ด) (PhangNga)

The Dairy Hut Seafood Restaurant is another highlight in the restaurant scene of Phang Nga. The remarkable building is situated in the south of town near the Shell petrol station beside the road to Thap Put. The building with the pointed roof is located in beautiful landscape beside a small lake with Nipa Palm trees below a limestone mountain. All furniture is aesthetic and strong. Thais seem to prefer to eat in the air-conditioned room whereas the terrace beside the lake attracts guests of all walks of life. The background music is of an unobtrusive volume. The immense menu is a piece of art with all dishes attractively photographed. Naturally the seafood dishes take up most pages in a variety that I have never seen before. Other dishes are a wide spectrum of the Thai cuisine as well as a large variety of international specialties. Our first test revealed that each dish ordered was first class, the presentation as well as the taste. The free drinking water was continually refilled, a nice trait of the Thai food culture in general. Naturally the price range is in the upper region but still far below the typical prices in an upper class tourist hotel. We will surely come back soon to enjoy another meal in the Dairy Hut Seafood Restaurant.
