Better to rent small car because most of the roads are narrow

Try to avoid rush hours. Make sure you have a parking spot at your hotel. Relax, don't drink and drive!

One of the most exciting aspects of any trip abroad is exploring the countryside. This is especially so in Phuket City because of its vibrant surroundings. However, if you truly want to get out and explore, then driving your own vehicle is the best means to get off the beaten path car, as the only other options in the city are taxis, buses, or tuk tuks.
Excited to begin your trip in Phuket City? If so and you are planning on renting a vehicle during your time in the city, Phuket International Airport’s hire car counters can be found in the Arrivals Hall.
Drivers new to Phuket City should make sure to keep their eyes peeled for any animals or pedestrians crossing the road suddenly. In the case of animals, there are many strays located in the outskirts of the city that often enjoy sunbathing by the road, so be cautious when driving. In terms of pedestrians, Phuket City is a lively town (especially at night), so many pedestrians will be out and about.

Car pickup was easy, terms were well explained. Car return was difficult as the counter opened much later than promised. Luckily I didn't miss my flight because of the delay

They had no capability to cancel. They refer you to a page that doesn't exist. Then they do not respond until after your reservation date, and they tell you that you cannot cancel after the reservation date. Even though you were trying to cancel prior.

One month later and I am still waiting for my deposit to be returned. The car was in terrible condition. Would not recommend this company if they were the last rental company in the world.
