Traveling from Bangkok to Phuket by train

If you choose to take the train, there are a few notes for you: there is currently no direct train from Bangkok to Phuket. If traveling by train, you must combine train and bus. You will go through 2 routes to get to the place you want to go. You need a 12-hour train from Hua Lamphong Station (Bangkok) and arrive at Phun Phin (Surat Thani Railway Station). After that, you need another 5 hours to move to Phuket by bus.

This way is not too expensive, but very few people choose it because this way requires a lot of time and effort to bring travel packs from the train to the bus.
