1)What are prices like over new years period (drinks, food, snorkeling, ect)?

2)What sort of average age group comes to patong to party? i am 26 and My GF is 21

3) Other than booking through the hotel, what is the best way to get from the airport to Patong and back?

4) Any tips or tricks or suggestions would be greatly appreciated?

Cheers, Mike


Hi leemer101,

Welcome to the forum

To answer some of your questions, 1 & 2 have been dealt with by others.
3 Apart from hotel pickup, you can either use the airport limos to get into Patong (550baht approx) or walk a little to the right on exiting Phuket Airport to the taxi rank where a meter cab will take you for around 400/450baht.

4 The best suggestion for you will be to read as much as you can on the forum before leaving. Anything specific, try entering into the search function and you should get some threads come up to help you.

Apart from that , enjoy the forum, and enjoy your trip
