What’s the best way to get from Phuket Town to Patong?

The easiest way to travel from Phuket Town to Patong is by taking a taxi or a Grab car, which is quite convenient and allows for door-to-door service.

• Alternatively, you can hop on a local bus, known as a 'songthaew,' which is a more budget-friendly option. Just be prepared for a longer journey, as the bus makes several stops along the way.

• If you're feeling adventurous, consider renting a scooter! It's a great way to explore the island at your own pace and enjoy some scenic views.

Phuket traffic can make short map distances surprisingly slow. Choose an area that matches the activities you will do most often, then check walking conditions, evening transport and current opening hours.
