Go-Karting

One of the great things about vacationing in Thailand is that many of the activities available are far cheaper to experience than in the west. This is true of Go Karting, which is becoming very popular with visitors to Patong. Additionally, Go Kart Racing in Thailand takes place outdoors, instead of on indoor tracks, as the weather is conducive to this. This means you will be racing on far larger kart tracks than you possibly have at home.

There are two Go Kart tracks on Phuket. The first of these is Phuket Kart Speedway, which is located in Kathu, on the way into Phuket Town, over Patong Hill, on the right. The second is Patong Go Kart Speedway, which is conveniently located right opposite Phuket Kart Speedway.

Both of the go kart tracks on Phuket have a wide range of karts available. This includes standard karts, twin seat karts, karts for children, race karts and super speed karts. Whatever your taste in kart racing, you will find a kart to your liking. Alternatively, why not spend a day trying out all of the different karts? However, be warmed, karting can be addictive, be prepared to visit the track again and again during your vacation.

Food and drinks are available at both karting venues, as well as plenty of shaded seating for spectators. Unlike in the west, a day go karting on Phuket is something the whole family can enjoy. Instead of a serious, race meeting focused experience, a day karting on Phuket is a much more lighthearted event. Children are welcome to try the karts, whilst the adults enjoy a cold beer in the shade after working up a sweat on the track.
