An Thoi is the main southern gateway for many Phu Quoc itineraries. Travelers head this way for south-island accommodation, Sunset Town, boat trips, and access to the Hon Thom cable-car departure area.
Because "An Thoi" can mean a town area, hotel, port, or attraction entrance, the exact destination matters.
Direct road transfer
Taxi and private-car transfers are the simplest point-to-point choices from the airport.
For a pre-booked vehicle, send:
- flight number;
- exact destination pin;
- hotel or attraction name;
- passenger count;
- luggage count.
If you are connecting to an activity
Do not schedule a tight connection between your flight and a boat, tour, or timed attraction.
Allow for:
- flight delay;
- baggage collection;
- meeting the driver;
- road travel;
- finding the correct entrance or port;
- check-in requirements.
If missing the activity would be expensive, build a generous buffer.
An Thoi vs Hon Thom
The road transfer does not take you directly onto Hon Thom island. The Hon Thom cable car begins from the An Thoi / Sunset Town area and continues over the sea to Hon Thom.
If your booking says "Hon Thom," confirm whether the operator expects you at the cable-car station, another meeting point, or a boat pier.
Luggage
Large luggage can be inconvenient if you plan to go directly from the airport to an attraction. Check storage rules before travel.
If staying overnight in the south, dropping bags at the hotel first is often simpler.
Return to the airport
For a departure from An Thoi, do not base your pickup only on a map's best-case estimate. Add time for hotel checkout, loading luggage, traffic, and airport procedures.
FAQ
Is An Thoi the same as the Hon Thom cable-car station?
The cable-car departure is in the An Thoi / Sunset Town area, but you should confirm the exact station entrance for your ticket.
Can I go directly from the airport to a south-island tour?
Yes, if the timetable has enough buffer. Avoid tight flight-to-tour connections.
Is a private car necessary?
No. It is one option. Taxis and other services may also be available, depending on time and group needs.
What should I put as the destination?
Use the exact hotel, port, station, or map pin rather than only "An Thoi."
