keestha Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Simple question from an out of towner. I was confused because a customer told me that after arriving at Phuket Town bus station, he had to take a motorcycle taxi to the downtown (market area) to board a bus to Patong. Are there really no buses to Patong and Karon leaving directly from the bus station? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmitch Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Absolutely right. No buses from the main bus station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenl Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Absolutely right. No buses from the main bus station. Don't the pink buses pass by the busstation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenBravo Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 There are two bus stations. One for destinations off of Phuket and the other is local buses. The two are at least a kilometer, or two apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I remember reading a news story (can't find the link right now)that due to publc complaints about the distance and inconvenience, a bus service between the 2 bus station was being planned.

Doesn't sound good, anything planned without big announcements has probably not been realised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
