Phuket Travel Guide 2019 Phuket Travel Anti-Pit Guide

Phuket is a well-known tourist destination with very rich tourism resources and complete supporting infrastructure. Various cultural elements with local characteristics have been well preserved and carried forward, attracting people from all over the world. In order to attract the attention of tourists, I will share with you a detailed guide below.

Three major beach experiences in Phuket:

Patong: complete water sports, clear sea water, crowded and lively

Recommendation index: ***< /p>

Karen: There are few water sports and the waves are very big! If you like playing in the sea, you must go to me! Don’t be afraid! And the coastline is long! The sunset is the most beautiful beach!

Recommendation index: * ****

Kata: Didn’t skip it

Recommended market/not recommended market:

The most popular Internet celebrity night market is Banzan The seafood night market

You can go and have a look, but it’s too busy, especially for Chinese people. I don’t recommend it. The night market stall next to it is much better. I recommend the mango sticky rice there

Recommended Night market: CHILLVAMARKET

A night market that Thai locals like to visit. Indeed, there are relatively few Chinese people in this night market, but it has quite an atmosphere. There are many small things to buy, but there is not much to shop for clothes. The main reason is the atmosphere. ~ It is recommended to go but it is a bit far.

Guide to prevent pitfalls:

1. Don’t take a taxi here. Don’t take a taxi. Don’t take a taxi. I’ve said it 3 times. Please listen to me. Let’s rent a motorcycle for 300 baht a day.

You can negotiate a price of 250 (24 hours a day). Convert to RMB: 300 baht = 66

Why not let you take a taxi? Because it’s too confusing. First of all, I want to say that the distance between three beaches does not count. It’s far, it takes 20 minutes to drive a motorcycle from Karon to Patong

Not to mention 20 minutes is a long way. The driver will charge you 35 baht for this journey. You can pay 1,00 baht for just one day’s taxi ride. , that is, two or three hundred.

2. Internet celebrity restaurants recommend that you go to Zhihu, Dazhong and other apps to read reviews before going there! Please! There are also some restaurants that have group purchases, so you can buy them directly from the restaurant people I won't cheat you.

3. Let’s talk about two restaurants in particular

Two brothers: very popular and delicious. Online shopping only costs more than 200 for two people. It’s more cost-effective to have more than half left over if there are more people. Eat, recommended. There are so many copycats here that we just ate them. Please check the location before navigating.

4. Don’t go out to sea for more than 15 minutes during the rainy season, please! For your own safety, I know that distant islands are beautiful, but if the weather is bad, you may be photographed there In the Waves

It is not recommended to go to sea when the weather is bad. Bad weather means everything on the island is bad.

5. Book a hotel and check out Airbnb. For 20 you can get a nice room and it’s very stylish.

6. When you come to Phuket, especially the male friends, please control your hormones and go make appointments with people nearby. Basically, the people you call are gangs committing crimes. The only baht you can negotiate is when you come. Turn it into RMB, and the RMB you talked about will turn into US dollars when it’s over! If you don’t pay? Threaten to call the police, the gang will rush in and make a fuss, throwing cups and beating people.

7. There are a lot of scams when renting a car. A common trick is to say there are scratches when returning the car, and then ask for compensation of 3,000 to 5,000 baht. Therefore, when renting a car, you must inspect the car body in advance, take photos and videos to make backup copies.

8. When you park your rented motorcycle or car on the side of the road, leave it for ten or twenty minutes. When you come out, you will find that the wheels have been locked by the police. When you come out, you will be asked to pay a fine of 500-1,000 baht to unlock them. Therefore, When parking, try to get together and park in the parking space. Don't feel like there are a few local cars parked there, which is safe. In fact, roadside vendors and motorcycle taxi drivers are in the same group as the police. If they find foreigners coming to park, they will As if he saw fat meat, he immediately notified a familiar police officer nearby and collected the fine and split it between the two of them.

9. Riding a motorboat on the beach is fun. I also like riding. It is very exciting. However, more than once, a bit of paint was damaged while riding a motorboat. The compensation offered was two to thirty thousand baht, and the police and ambassador The museum can’t control it. Last time, a tourist spent an entire afternoon at the police station, riding a motorboat in big waves and scratched the paint. He just asked for 30,000 baht, but he didn’t let go until he finally got 17,000 baht. The kitten can speak Thai, so he went to translate and scolded him. The police finally solved the problem and asked for 5,000 baht to settle the matter. This kind of incident had happened several times before. It was better not to deal with it. If it happened, it would start at 20,000 baht.

Misunderstandings in Phuket:

The three beaches are not as far away as everyone thinks

Although it requires going up and down the mountain, it only takes 20 minutes. There is no need to stay in the hotel, go for a walk, go to Patong to eat, go to Karon to play in the water, or go to Kata for vacation? These three points are not inconsistent at all, okay?
