Rent from Europcar. They are in the airport terminal, no shuttle bus necessary.

Better to rent small car because most of the roads are narrow

KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Phuket City

  • One of the most exciting aspects of any trip abroad is exploring the countryside. This is especially so in Phuket City because of its vibrant surroundings. However, if you truly want to get out and explore, then driving your own vehicle is the best means to get off the beaten path car, as the only other options in the city are taxis, buses, or tuk tuks.
  • Excited to begin your trip in Phuket City? If so and you are planning on renting a vehicle during your time in the city, Phuket International Airport’s hire car counters can be found in the Arrivals Hall.
  • Drivers new to Phuket City should make sure to keep their eyes peeled for any animals or pedestrians crossing the road suddenly. In the case of animals, there are many strays located in the outskirts of the city that often enjoy sunbathing by the road, so be cautious when driving. In terms of pedestrians, Phuket City is a lively town (especially at night), so many pedestrians will be out and about.
  • Rush hour in Phuket City is luckily not nearly as severe as it is in Bangkok. On a normal day, the morning rush hour is a mere hour long and lasts from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. during the work week. However, the afternoon and evening rush hour is somewhat more severe and it generally starts at around 4:00 p.m. and then tapers off at around 7:00 p.m.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Phuket City for S$ 21 or less
  • Economy rental cars in Phuket City are around 36% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Phuket City

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Phuket City?

    Phuket City’s streets are, for the most part, large and well maintained. Drivers should have no issues driving all sorts of vehicles, from SUVs and trucks to sedans and compacts. If you plan on exploring the countryside, it may even be advantageous to have a larger vehicle. In the city, however, some of the streets can get narrower, so larger cars may have to stop at times to let other cars pass. Large cars are popular in Thailand, though, so drivers shouldn’t have any problems.

  • What’s the speed limit in Phuket City?

    Speed limits in Phuket City and Thailand are set at four general standards. Specifically, 50 km/h (31 mph) in dense urban and residential areas, 80 km/h (50 mph) on larger roads in built-up areas, 90 km/h (56 mph) outside of built-up areas, and 120 km/h (75 mph) on motorways.

  • Where are the best places to park in Phuket City?

    For the most part, parallel streetside parking is the most common option available to drivers in Phuket City. Additionally, drivers can expect most businesses and restaurants to have their own private parking. Aside from those two options, there are some parking lots and garages in the city, but they are not too common as streetside parking is so amply available.

  • How much does it cost to rent a car in Phuket City?

    On average a rental car in Phuket City costs S$ 25 per day.

They had no capability to cancel. They refer you to a page that doesn't exist. Then they do not respond until after your reservation date, and they tell you that you cannot cancel after the reservation date. Even though you were trying to cancel prior.
