Koh Samui Airport Car Hire Guide

The Koh Samui Airport is named as the most beautiful airport of all, mostly by the travelers who have gone all around the world. This airport can be found in the island of the same name in Thailand. The city center is the Chaweng Village and it is a two-kilometre ride from the airport. This airport seems different because it doesn't have any indoors. The only building with a roof around here is a gift shop.

The main attraction of the island is of course, the beautiful beaches and all the natural wonders surrounding it. The whole place is a paradise perfect for royalties. To travel around the island, you can rent different kinds of vehicles such as a jeep, a car, or a motorcycle. Taxis are easily available as well, but haggling is the key to arrive at the best possible price. The whole area is indeed a great travel destination. However, given that fact, you can quite assume that things could get a little pricey around here.

There are buses running around the island all day. But they stop the service at 11pm. If you are going to travel at a later time, you have to take the taxi. The buses here are trucks with roofs and you sit right there on the top for that perfect view of the city.

Tourists are most advised to get their own vehicle while here. There are many car hire providers available such as Sixt, Avis, and Budget. It is relatively cheaper to hire a car than to use the public transport all the time. Try to book a vehicle before your estimate time of arrival so that the company can prepare your car at the airport's parking lot.

The Koh Samui Island is referred to as most beautiful tropical island of Southeast Asia. From the airplane view, you will easily see all the nice things that the island can offer its guests. Koh Samui is surrounded by smaller groups of islands and it has a good a surfing area. Fishing crafts are parked across the ports along the enticing and calm aquamarine sea, which is mostly the reason why tourists fly over here. Koh Samui is located off the Thailand Gulf.
