FAQs
The 10-hour clock starts from your requested pick-up time. You have total flexibility! Whether you want an early 08:00 AM start to catch the morning breeze or a 12:00 PM (extra late night drive charge may be applied) start to enjoy the nightlife and night markets, just let us know at least 24 hours in advance.
Yes! Our “Driver cum Guide” is handpicked for their ability to communicate in English. While they are not history professors, they are local experts who can share insights about Thai culture, recommend the best local food spots, and help you navigate the island’s best-kept secrets.
Absolutely. That is the beauty of a private tour! If you find a beach you love and want to stay for 3 hours instead of 1, just tell your driver. We are happy to adjust the route on the fly as long as it stays within the 10-hour limit.
Yes, the price you see on ON9Tour.com is inclusive of fuel, parking fees, and road tolls. There are no hidden fuel surcharges at the end of the day. The only extra costs you should plan for are your meals and any entrance fees to specific attractions (like national parks).
We understand that sometimes the sunset is too beautiful to leave! If you go over the 10-hour mark, an hourly overtime rate will apply (payable directly to the driver). We recommend discussing this with your driver if you feel your plans might run late.
Definitely. Our drivers are locals who know the back roads of Phuket. If you want to avoid the tourist traps and see where the locals eat or find a quiet cliffside for photos, just ask for a local’s recommendation.
If your 10-hour tour starts or ends at the airport, we can certainly arrange that (additional charges may applied)! However, please note that for hotels located in the far north of the island (like Maikhao or Nai Yang), a small distance surcharge may apply due to the extra travel time for the driver.
