Some folks tell me Thailand is cash only and in Phuket a driver will take us to an ATM. Sounds like a good way to get robbed. Taxis won’t take USD.
Someone suggested GRAB to me but others say taxi companies won’t let them pick you up AND they still want cash.
Any advice? I have been all over the world and only scammed once.
Sorry, turn Left at End of pier, not right.

Been to Phuket many times. award there just last Feb off Celebrity Millenium. You can walk right off ship, up pier to street, turn right and you will come across money exchange booths and ATMs within literally a minute walk. And no, Thailand is not a cash only place, and they love US dollars. We lived in northern thailand in 3016 when my wife retired.

There are some mud baths just outside of town, about 25 mins from cruise port.

Any taxi can take you there.
Would you let taxi drive you to ATM in Phuket, Thailand? (cruise ship)

Millenium tendered. But once at dock must walk to road, just a few minutes walk. you are then on main beach road, most everything is to your left. Do not need taxi to walk around town if fit.
