Top Ten Must Do List: Take a Drive: Get out and see the "real" Phuket away from the tourist areas

 

Coconut, pineapple and rubber plantations, rural villages, and stunning sea and bay views are all on offer.  You will be amazed at what you'll find, a Phuket that even many local residents don't know about.  Soi Bangla is interesting, but it isn't really Phuket.  As long as you are coming to the island, you might as well see what is here.  Check out Phuket's Best Island Drives. Self drive or hire a car and driver for the day.

 

A couple well-reviewed drivers with cars are here: Phuket People. Read Phuket Car Rent for information about driving on Phuket and how the Car Hire situation works here. This two-meter statue of Ganessha is one of the surprises you will find, but you'll have to go hunting for it yourself
