bangkokpoppys Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 Taking the family to Khao Lak and am wondering if it is worth while hiring a car for sightseeing purposes, struggling to get much info on this. We are flying into Phuket then was thinking to pick up a 4x4 there. Us there much to see around the area? Thanks for your TV-wise suggestions in advance.

craigt3365 Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Yes, it's a great idea. But first, what are you really interested in doing on your holiday? If you plan a bunch of beach time, it might be best to just get your car in Khao Lak for a few days instead of your entire trip? Might save you some money. The drive up from Phuket can be very beautiful, especially if you stop and explore some of the beaches.
bangkokpoppys Posted February 9, 2014 Author Posted February 9, 2014 Thanks all for your responses. We have young kids 5 & 3 years old so apart from the resort we have booked, I am looking for things that might interest them. Looks like there is a heap of things to do - I like the idea of visiting the dam not sure the kids know where water in the tap comes from yet! Thanks again!
