Phuket Airport to Kata by Fixed price Taxi = Bt 750, Mini bus (wait till it fills up with 10 passengers) =Bt 180, Metered Taxi = Bt 450.

No one will admit the existence of Meter Taxis. Tourist Info at Airport will grudgingly point you in the right direction.

Hotels will only call a fixed price Taxi, so I don't know how you get a Meter Taxi outside the airport.

At the Airport turn right out the arrivals and walk to the corner. Meter Taxis are Yellow/red and have an illuminated TAXI sign on their roof .

The Meter Taxis are a fairly new phenomenon and I guess the Taxi Mafia just like things the way they always have been.

Is the Ferry from Ban Rac (Big Budda) to Had Rin running yet?

Thanks anguid.

Also have to say that you take cool photos.

I'm looking to rent a Bicycle on Koh Phangan for two weeks, any ideas? A good Mountain Bike would be good. Or do I need to rent on Samui?
