Phuket Travel Guide 20 18

Clear blue sea water, soft white beaches, caves and stones of different shapes, warm eyes and beautiful and pleasant landscapes are all symbols of Phuket.

Many people are eager for it, but most of them are from China. Next, Bian Xiang Xiao tells you what you need to prepare for Phuket!

Optimal travel time

The best time to travel in Phuket is from 10 to April 65438-065438 every year.

Phuket is located in the tropics, with a humid tropical climate, often with summer without winter.

April to September is the rainy season in Phuket every year, especially in May, when it rains almost every day. At this time, there will be a vegetarian festival that advertises asceticism.

On June 5438+065438+ 10, from the carnival at Patong Beach to the seafood festival held at the end of April the following year, not only the whole Phuket was a lively scene, but also the sky was mild and the sea was blue.

Power supply and voltage

The power sockets in Thailand are both two-hole, 220V and 50 H. The plugs in three hole socket are different, so you need a converter. The sockets of the two holes are the same, and no converter is needed. There are converters in 7- 1 1 on the streets of Thailand, but it is cheaper to buy them in China and get them there.

Exchange rate and cash

At present, 1 yuan is about 4.9 baht. To exchange Thai baht in China, you need to exchange it at the counter of China Bank, and sometimes you need to make an appointment in advance, so you don't need to bring too much Thai baht abroad.

It is also convenient to exchange money in Phuket. Both the airport and Phuket Town can exchange money, and the exchange rate at the airport may be slightly different.

Lower it.

There are ATMs and money exchange shops all over the island. Purple ATM has the highest exchange rate and charges a handling fee of 50 baht. The exchange shops are very formal, and there is basically no deception. You can find more shops with higher exchange rates. UnionPay cards or credit cards can be used in big shopping malls and hotels, and credit cards need to pay a handling fee of 2%-3%.

The Bank of Thailand has an ATM, which provides currency exchange service between 8: 30 am and 6:00 pm. Onong

There are several banks near the hotel.

internet access fees

The wireless network in Phuket is very developed. Most hotels have WIFI service, but there are also hourly charges, 30 baht/hour. Most cafes can also provide free WIFI, and there are also many Internet cafes in Phuket Town, which cost about 20 baht/hour.

Telephone and communication knowledge

China Unicom Mobile's card can be used in Thailand, but you need to dial the corresponding domestic customer service number in advance to open the international roaming service. It is suggested that customer service block the data roaming function and only open international roaming. Mobile needs to pay for international roaming, while Unicom does not need additional conditions for international roaming.

The suggestion of international roaming is only as a preventive measure to prevent missing important calls. It is more convenient and affordable to buy local calling cards in Thailand.

There are three kinds of calling cards commonly used in Thailand: Truemove card, Happy card and 1-2-Call card. Turemove card is widely used and has a good reputation, followed by Kaixin card. 1-2-Call card is more expensive and has a wide range of applications. There are three card fees for each card: 399 baht, 199 baht and 99 baht.
