Hi.

I am wanting to know if anyone knows a company that lets you hire cars that allow you to take them off the island. I want to do a trip up north for a week or so.

Thanks.

happy days in chalong rents cars....they have a couple of saloonas and a yaris

or if you have no luck there, nina's car rental just around the next street has cars also...i rented one and drove up to krabi....from memory i think it was a mazda 3

Almost every rental will do, just insist that they take out the paragraph about the out-of-province rental. Maybe they will ask some more money, though. But be sure you tell them about leaving Phuket.
