We pick up for all hotels and accommodation on Phuket Island. I Asia Thailand will contact you with your pick up time before the tour.
Patong Beach, Patong, Thailand Patong Beach is the true heart of Phuket, and what makes it so attractive to many. Patong is big, bold, crowded, bright and loud. And yet millions of people flock here every year like flies on honey. If Bangkok is the Big Mango, then Patong is the Big Durian: you’ll love Patong!
Karon Viewpoint, Karon, Thailand Karon Viewpoint is one of the most frequented viewpoints in Phuket. From here, it is possible to take in views of Kata Noi, Kata Yai and Karon beaches.
Karon Viewpoint is not visited on the Afternoon Sunset Tour.
Located between Nai Harn and Kata Noi beaches, the viewpoint is busy most days of the year and is a staple of many tour itineraries. Called locally ‘Khao Saam Haad’ (Three Beaches Hill), the local municipality for some reason has officially renamed it ‘Karon Viewpoint’. It’s located just to the south of Kata Noi Beach and looks out directly out to the Andaman Sea but most people have their cameras trained due north at the undeniably impressive eight-kilometre vista of the three west coast beaches in the background.
20 minutes
Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong), Chalong, Thailand Of the many temples found on Phuket island, the Wat Chalong temple is the largest and most revered. The temple complex was built in its current location in 1837. Some remains of older structures have been found, however it is unknown exactly how old they are. The large grounds of Wat Chalong that is officially named Wat Chaitararam contains a viharn, a mondop, a ubosot, a chedi containing a secret relic, a sala and a crematorium. 45 minutes
Methee Phuket, Phuket Town, Thailand A tour of a cashew nut factory in Phuket is a must for cashew nut lovers.
The Cashew nut is a native produce that is grown in Phuket and other provinces of Southern Thailand, and are relatively cheap compared to prices in Western countries. 20 minutes
Old Phuket Town, Talat Yai, Thailand Old Phuket Town, is an area of historical interest in Phuket City. The main streets of Old Phuket Town are Thalang, Phang Nga, Krabi, Dibuk, and Yoawarat. Old Phuket Town is noted for Sino-Portuguese buildings on both sides of the street.
During the Afternoon Tour we will stop and this will be a Walking Tour for about 45minutes. Only during the Morning Tour will we pass through some streets without actually stopping.
Big Buddha Phuket, Chalong, Thailand Big Buddha Phuket is a 45-meter-tall white marble statue visible from anywhere in the southern part of Phuket. It is probably at the top of everyone’s ‘Must-Do in Phuket‘, and for a good reason. The views from up there are breathtaking. The statue is built with people’s donation and is still under construction. If you feel like doing something to help to finish the broad base of the Buddha, you can sponsor a piece of white marble for 300 to 1,000 baht depending on the size. 45 minutes

A good way to get an overview of Phuket if you are only here for a short time. As this was a private tour we were able to customize it which worked well for us.

It was very good. Our tour guide and driver were very professional and kind. The tour was four hours which was enough to stop and visit many places and we still had half of the day for us.

Der Bug Buddha kann wegen Erdrutsch nicht besichtigen werden. Darüber wurden wir nach dem buchen bereits informiert. Wir hatten die Nachmittagstour. Old town Phuket (viel zu kurz), Perlenfabrik (warum?), Erdnussfabrik (ok, ist normal bei solchen Touren, war ganz nett), Tempel (leider ohne Erklärung des RL) , Aussichtspunkt wo man den big Buddha sehen kann (ganz klein , im Hintergrund, nicht Foto geeignet, gibt bessere Plätze um den big Buddha trotzdem zu Sehen). Aber nette und motivierte RL. Es geht dennoch besser.
