Krabi to Phuket

Travel from Krabi to Phuket by private car or van, a shared road service, or a speedboat from the Ao Nang area. Private transfers can take you to the hotel or airport selected in your booking, while shared tickets may end at a bus terminal, a named bus stop or a pier. Choose your exact pickup and final destination before comparing fares: arriving in Phuket does not always mean arriving at your accommodation.

Private taxi or van to your hotel or Phuket Airport

Andaman Taxis offers private car and van transfers, with pickup selections including Krabi Town hotels, Krabi Airport and Ao Nang hotels. Choose the destination that matches your plans, such as Phuket Airport or Patong Hotel Transfer, and provide the full address when booking a hotel transfer.

A private transfer suits travellers who want an arranged pickup and a vehicle reserved for their group. A van is another vehicle choice for a group, but confirm passenger and luggage capacity for the specific vehicle. “Any time” or “Flexible departure” means the pickup time is arranged for the booking; confirm that time in advance.

Shared van or minibus between named stops

Shared van and minibus tickets are available for Krabi Bus Terminal to Phuket Bus Terminal 1. These terminal-to-terminal tickets require you to arrange the journey to the departure terminal and onward from the arrival terminal to your accommodation. Compare the ticket plus those local journeys with a private transfer to your hotel.

The Goodluck Lanta minibus instructions specify counter 7 at Krabi Bus Terminal and reporting at least 30 minutes before departure. Follow your ticket instructions and check for updates. The assigned vehicle may be a minivan or minibus, and it may pick up or drop off passengers along the way. A journey without a vehicle change can still include stops.

Speedboat from Ao Nang to Bang Rong Pier

Green Planet’s pier-to-pier speedboat connects Noppharat Thara Pier in Ao Nang with Bang Rong Pier in Phuket. This ticket ends at Bang Rong Pier and does not include a Phuket hotel transfer. Arrange transport to the departure pier and from Bang Rong to your final destination unless those journeys are explicitly included in the product you choose.

This option can suit travellers starting near Ao Nang who want a sea crossing and can plan the onward road journey. Intermediate island calls may form part of the itinerary; check whether your departure involves a boat change. For any ferry or combined ticket, read the full itinerary and transfer coverage rather than assuming that every service uses the same Phuket pier.

Starting in Krabi: Krabi Town Hotel Transfer, Krabi Airport, Ao Nang Hotel Transfer and Noppharat Thara Pier are different pickup selections. Noppharat Thara Pier is also written as Nopparat Thara Pier. Use the meeting point on your confirmation, especially when your accommodation is away from the selected town, beach area or pier.

Finishing in Phuket: Phuket Airport, Phuket Bus Terminal 1, Bang Rong Pier and a beach hotel transfer are different destinations. A ticket to Patong Bangla Bus Stop also ends at a named stop, rather than your hotel. Check the remaining journey before choosing a fare.

Airport arrivals: If you land at Krabi Airport, provide your flight details and allow time to collect your bags and reach the transfer meeting point. Confirm where to meet the driver and how waiting or a flight delay is handled. For an onward flight from Phuket, select Krabi Airport to Phuket Airport transfers when you need the airport-to-airport route.

The road journey from Krabi Town to Phuket Town is approximately 163 km between city-level endpoints. This is a general distance reference, not the distance for every hotel, airport or pier transfer. Your actual pickup and drop-off addresses can change the route.

Private car examples: The Krabi Town Hotel Transfer to Phuket Airport service is estimated at about 2 hours 15 minutes, while the Krabi Town Hotel Transfer to Patong Hotel Transfer service is estimated at about 3 hours. These estimates apply to the named services, not every journey shown under Krabi to Phuket.

Shared road service: The Krabi Bus Terminal to Phuket Bus Terminal 1 van and minibus services are listed at about 3 hours between the terminals. Add your journey to the departure terminal, the required reporting time and the transfer from the arrival terminal to your hotel.

Speedboat: The Noppharat Thara Pier to Bang Rong Pier service is listed at about 1 hour 20 minutes pier to pier. Add travel to the pier, the reporting time on your ticket, disembarkation and your onward Phuket transfer. Sea conditions can affect the sailing, and road traffic can affect the land portions of your trip.

Use the search form above to select your pickup, destination, travel date and passengers, then open the trip details. Check whether the fare is per person or for the private vehicle or group, and confirm which road and sea portions are included. Compare the final total for everyone travelling, including any separately arranged local transfers.

Connecting to a flight: Choose Phuket Airport as your drop-off and work back from your airline’s check-in and bag-drop deadlines. We recommend allowing additional time for traffic and other delays. The transfer’s estimated arrival time is not a guarantee that you will make a flight.

Connecting to a boat: Match the drop-off pier to your onward ticket. Bang Rong Pier and Rassada Pier are different locations; arriving at one does not complete a connection from the other. Allow for the transfer between them if needed and follow the onward operator’s reporting requirements. Book any separate onward boat ticket yourself unless it is explicitly included.

Luggage, children and extra stops: Give the number and size of your bags and ask about oversized items, accessibility needs or a child seat before choosing the vehicle or boat. Confirm special requests, waiting charges and any requested stop in advance. Read the selected product’s change and cancellation terms before paying.

If you are planning the journey back, compare Phuket to Krabi travel options separately and match the return pickup and drop-off to your itinerary.
