Itinerary

  • Karon Viewpoint

    Your guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel on Phuket for a 5-hour exploration of some of Phuket’s most famous sites. We start our journey with a visit to one of the most notable viewing points along the west coast. As the name implies, Karon View Point is an elevated natural sight along the main access road away from Kata Beach for panoramic views over not only Karon and Kata Beach. Offering magnificent views over the various bays and beaches along Phuket’s western coast line, it is locally known as “Khao Saam Haad” (Three Beaches Hill) as visitors can indeed admire three of Phuket’s main beaches from this spot.

    1 hour

  • N/A

    Promthep Cape is an absolute pinnacle of watching the sea and the land coming together in a natural way gives a new definition of a panoramic view with a high dose of awe and amazement. Located in the deep south of Phuket, sunrises and sunsets make Promthep Cape a much adored landmark during the day.

    1 hour

  • N/A

    The road trip includes the island’s most important religious site, the glistering Wat Chalong. The renowned monastery housing bronze images of the monks Luang Pho Chaem and Luang Pho Chuang, who are highly respected by Phuket inhabitants.

    45 minutes

  • Old Phuket Town

    A guided tour into Phuket Town brings forward the Sino-Portuguese style influences, and there is also an opportunity to shop at one of the local markets or boutiques. Phuket town was originally settled about a century ago by Chinese residents of Malaysia who were drawn to the lucrative mineral deposits. Tin and rubber fortunes created by the great rush formed the great Sino-Thai dynasties, which still dominate the economies of southern Thailand.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Gems Gallery Phuket

    Before we end this half day, we make a final stop that shows you some of Phuket’s finest. Phuket is well-known for its gem stones and a plethora of stones that can be found in the grounds on the island. A ‘ride into history’ is includes as we take you on a journey to get an up-and-close view of gem stone mining. After seeing some of the most precious stones displayed, we will bring you back to your hotel.

Good value

Published on Jul, 2019

Great half day. Highly recommend as soon as you arrive in Phuket . Clean bus and very organised Thank you

A half day well spent

Published on May, 2019

Our guide was Kong, and what he did not know about the areas we visited wasnt worth writing down. We were taken to all the trrue attractions in the area like the Big Buddah, The Buddist Temple, The Gem Gallery and the Lookout plus a few others. Value for money this rates very well because its for the whole family but please keep in mind appropriate dress when visiting the Big Buddah. They have that covered, excuse the pun, with garments that can be borrowed whist you are there.
