One of the biggest problems tourists used to face when they first arrived in Phuket was how to get from Phuket International Airport to their accommodation. In the past, tourists had to negotiate with taxi drivers at the airport to arrange transportation. However, today, thanks to Phuket Smart Bus, tourists can reach their destinations more comfortably and quickly without paying high taxi fares. With this innovation, visitors can now travel safely and affordably to almost anywhere on the island using the Phuket Smart Bus.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cfigure data-align=\"center\" data-width=\"1060\" style=\"display:block;width:1060px;max-width:100%;text-align:center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https://r46gu.upcloudobjects.com/tripkolic-images/content-assets/richtext/757f3702-c2ff-417c-a8f6-28306fc21c67.jpg\" alt=\"pksb-map-02 Large.jpeg\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;display:block;border-radius:12px\" /\u003e\u003cfigcaption style=\"text-align:center\"\u003e\u003c/figcaption\u003e\u003c/figure\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently Asked Questions About Phuket Smart Bus\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cfigure data-align=\"center\" data-width=\"538\" style=\"display:block;width:538px;max-width:100%;text-align:center\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https://r46gu.upcloudobjects.com/tripkolic-images/content-assets/richtext/57d8030f-62f1-42e8-a391-917d38c1fdc7.jpg\" alt=\"timetable-pksb-01-07-22-scaled.jpg\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;display:block;border-radius:12px\" /\u003e\u003cfigcaption style=\"text-align:center\"\u003e\u003c/figcaption\u003e\u003c/figure\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e📍\u003cstrong\u003e What is the Phuket Smart Bus route?\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ePhuket Smart Bus starts from \u003cstrong\u003ePhuket International Airport\u003c/strong\u003e in the north of the island and continues along the \u003cstrong\u003ewest coast\u003c/strong\u003e, all the way down to the southernmost areas of Phuket.
