Need a Phuket airport transfer to Patong, Kata, Karon or anywhere else on the island? IslandTransfer books you a real, licensed local driver — not an app account — at a fixed price agreed before you fly. We also cover private taxi hire by the hour, day trips, pier transfers for your Phi Phi or Krabi ferry, and intercity transfers to Krabi and Khao Lak. No meter, no airport taxi-counter haggling, no surprises.
Why travellers trust us
We are not a big anonymous platform. We are a small network of local Phuket drivers with one promise: you will never feel lost or cheated here.
Hand-picked local drivers
We started with drivers we personally know — family and long-time friends from Phuket. Every driver is vetted, licensed and drives a legal public-service vehicle.
Fixed prices, zero surprises
The price you see is the price you pay. Fuel, tolls and airport parking included. No meter games, no night surcharges invented on the spot.
Pay after the ride
No prepayment, no credit card required. Pay your driver in cash or by Thai bank transfer when the ride is done.

Questions travellers ask us
How do I find my driver at Phuket Airport?＋
We agree on an exact pickup point with you before your trip — for example a spot right outside arrivals, or a nearby landmark such as a 7-Eleven. Before the trip we send you the driver’s name, photo, vehicle photo and licence plate by email and WhatsApp, and the driver can also call or message you directly to coordinate. If you cannot find each other, message us on WhatsApp and we will connect you immediately.
How much is a taxi from Phuket Airport?＋
It depends on where you’re going. As a guide: about ฿500 to the closest north-island beaches like Mai Khao, ฿700–850 to Bang Tao, Surin or Kamala, and ฿1,000–1,100 to Patong, Karon or Kata further south. Every price is fixed and agreed before you fly — see our full price list, or message us your hotel name for an exact quote.
What happens if my flight is delayed?＋
Nothing bad! You give us your flight number when booking, and we track it. Your driver adjusts to the actual landing time at no extra charge. If a delay is very long we will message you with an updated plan.
How do I pay?＋
You pay the driver directly at the end of your ride — cash (Thai Baht) or Thai bank transfer. No prepayment, no credit card needed, and the price is exactly what you saw when you booked. Online payment options are coming soon.
Is the price really fixed?＋
Yes. The price you see when booking is the full price — it already includes fuel, tolls and airport parking. No meter, no night surcharge surprises, no luggage fees for normal luggage. If your plan changes (extra stop, different hotel), tell us and we confirm any new price before the trip, never during it.

Free cancellation up to 24 hours before pick-up. We usually confirm within a couple of hours.
