The Thai bus is probably the cheapest way to travel within Thailand. Buses depart from Phuket town in all directions and are also used by local. A trip from Phuket City to Patong Beach (ca. 1Hour) costs 25 Bath. The buses are organized, that they drive from Phuket Town to the beaches, However, not commute between the beaches. For a drive from Karon Beach to Patong Beach, you have to change trains in Phuket City, yielding more than an hour driving time, as required by taxi or tuk tuk.
A ride on the local transport should have made every once.
You must do the following in order to travel to the Thai public bus: either you wait (all 20-30min should take a Thai bus pass) at a terminus or is on the route of the bus on the road and waved when he comes.
Payment is made during the trip, by a Busbegleitung goes through the car and collect the necessary fare.
The alighting from the Thai bus get in is as simple as that.
People with a strong voice to a vociferous “Stop” bring the bus to hold and thus come out at the same time as culturally untrained tourist, while readers of this blog; simply pull the slightly hidden stop buttons on the cornices.
