Take a Ride, Take a walk - Touring Amazing View points! - A very easy to handle, walking and van riding tour. Most of the experience was done at various stops where we learned about the location and its history. Amazing places to take photos and videos! Our tour guide, Sue was so amazing and knowledgeable! She spoke beautiful English and had a great sense of humor and kind spirit. The one note to be aware of is that big Buddha is currently closed due to a landslide that happened last year. It was a tragic event, but subsequently kept the location closed to tourists. It doesn’t mean that you won’t be able to see it from another location very close to the big Buddha, but you see it from the left rear side. I wish I would’ve known this beforehand, but after doing the tour it would not have made a difference because it was an excellent viewpoint and photo spot! Lunch was super delicious at Local, generational restaurant. Lots of beverage breaks and a very comfortable Van ride with good AC! I highly recommend this tour! It’s a great way to see parts of Phuket that you would otherwise not be able to see on your own.

Great views - A little slow to answer text messages . But once that was all sorted out we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Lunch was excellent and was included. Tour guide Arranged a taxi for us after the tour as we were short on time to make our flight. He also stayed with us until the taxi came! We experienced old town Phuket, beaches, oldest temple area in Phuket. This trip is a “must have” to experience the other side of the island.

Strongly Recommend this Tour! (Solo traveler/Private option) - I had the absolute best experience on this tour! I booked a private tour as a solo traveler and it was one of the best choices I could have made. My tour guide Rita was an absolute gift of a tour guide. She was friendly, warm, and open, sharing all about Phuket, Thai culture & cuisine, and answering all my (many) questions. Rita was also a phenomenal photographer which I had not been expecting. She went above and beyond taking photos and even putting together video montages for me. I can not recommend this tour enough. It was a great way to experience some key places in Phuket with an efficient schedule and excellent guides.

Not Worth My Time - If you are staying in Maikhao, Talang area ( Marriott Phuket Beach Club) don't waste your time. Tour information said 5 to 6 hours long. We were gone from our hotel for 9 1/2 hours and it wasn't because of bad weather. You start out with the old city tour. All you are doing is shopping and not really seeing anything. The lunch was good but we did not eat until 2pm. The other location were fine but nothing to brag about. The tour guide Sue was friendly but I would of never book this tour if I knew 80 percent of the time was sitting in the van.
