Driver in Phuket

Hello fellow travellers,

We will be in Phuket in 2 weeks (counting the days!) - Is it better to organise a driver before we arrive or wait until we get there?

If so, can you please recommend a driver who speaks reasonable english?

Much appreciated!

Cheers

Driver in Phuket

My recommendations; Mai (hknuch@hotmail.com) and Koy (koyphuketdriver@hotmail.com). Both speak english well, are trustworthy, reliable and friendly.

Best to book before you go.

I have used Pure Car Rent http://www.purecarrent.com , they also have car with driver. But if you can drive, driving in Phuket is not difficult. Just drive carefully and beware motorcycle.

good luck

So Augie, are you the owner or do you just work there ? Remember, beware motorcycle, lol.

I would recommend Daj ( kanidaj@hotmail.com) , he speaks English, safe driver, has great sense of humor ! I emailed Daj before leaving Oz .

We also used a tuk tuk driver named Tom (mobile 081-6195081) ...he owns a very cool tuk tuk, comfy seats and clean, and he always played music for us ;)

We would call Tom and he would pick up from our hotel, and then call him again when we were ready to go back to hotel. Tom was very friendly and safe, and didnt good rates..saved us from constantly bargaining prices with tuk tuk drivers!

What sort of prices did TOM charge? Can you give a couple of examples?

Thanks

sorry correction on my last post ';and didnt good rates'; .. he DID give good rates
