Driving around Kata and Karon

  • The coast road from Karon over the hill to Kata and on to Kata Noi and the Karon Viewpoint is steep in places; take the bends slowly.
  • The road from Kata to Chalong crosses the hills in about 15 minutes and is the quickest way to Phuket Town and the Big Buddha road.
  • Patong is about 20 minutes north along the coast.
  • Do not park at red-and-white kerbs near the beaches — it is not allowed and cars there get clamped.

Which car to take

For two people a Toyota Yaris Ativ is enough even on the hills. For a family, heavy luggage or a villa at the top of a steep drive, the MG5 has more power and the 7-seat Toyota Fortuner has the most ground clearance.

Delivery and return

Send the hotel name or the villa location. The ฿700 fee covers delivery; collecting the car at the end is another ฿700. Taking the car free at the airport and driving to Kata yourself takes about 70 minutes.

What renters say

5.0 5.0 out of 5 on Google, 6 reviews
Ben & his Wife were amazing- extremely kind, generous & friendly. Their service was fantastic - both delivering & collecting the Car to Bang Rong Pier, so it is very convenient if you are coming or going to the Koh Yao Islands. They are also close to the airport! An efficient way of getting around as to booking / waiting for taxis. All the Cars are kept in amazing condition & extremely clean. I rented a Toyota Yaris, which was wonderful - super slick with the steering & offers comfortable, smooth travelling. Particularly great for either a Single or Duo travellers. Ben was always at hand to answer your messages & queries if needed, so it felt supportive & secure should their be any problems on route. I definitely recommend their services for anyone travelling to Phuket!

We had a very good experience, Ben and his wife are really nice and the car was perfect. He made a contract and were very serious. Finally the price was quite cheap compared to other agencies
