LOVED IT! - Such a great experience! It all began with perfect transfer from hotel then meeting our amazing guide who took great care of us and ensured he shared a lot of insights into the places we visited. Unfortunately the weather was far from ideal so we didn’t get to wander old Phuket town as we would have liked but that’s no issue. The big Buddha is also closed and the fog meant we didn’t get to see much of it but was still good to be there and see how majestic it appeared. Viewpoint was awesome (but no sunset due to aforementioned weather). The temple was quite nice to see in person after having heard much about it. But by far the stand out of this tour was the elephant sanctuary!!! What an incredible time that was!!!! Just so grounding to see the rescued elephants and hear of their stories, and get to Pat and take photos with them, and feed them! Epic! An expeience I will never forget And the food they let us choose from for lunch was amazing!!! One of the best hokkien noodles and pad Thai with dumplings and spring rolls we had tasted!

Must do! - The city tour was so much fun! We got picked up by our hotel, the van was comfortable and the guide was friendly and knowledgeable. We saw a lot, learned a lot and the elephant sanctuary was amazing!

Something for everyone! - I enjoyed the City shopping area. Many of the shops offered well made and unique items that I hadn’t seen during my stay in Thailand so far. Lunch was also very good and I liked savoring the local food and dessert. All in all it was a lovely day, or guide Rita was very knowledgeable and made our experience comfortable and enjoyable. Our driver, Mr T, kept us safe on the busiest roads and welcomed us with cold drinks and blessed air conditioning!

Pet the elephant - Great experience. Has a fun time feeding and petting elephants. Even with the elephants roaming free and walking in the same area I felt safe will be going back next time I'm in phuket.

Beautiful Places - I had a blast doing this tour! The tour guide was very knowledgeable and always gave us a information on the places we visited. The elephants 🐘 were absolutely beautiful, it was great seeing them cared for and loved. Disappointed that we didn't get to see the Big Budha but that wasn't the tour guides fault at all! I definitely recommend this trip!

Fun fill day! - This was a great tour from start to finish, drivers were on time for pick up to start, then our Tour guide Rainy was absolutely hilarious, informative, flexible and helpful, there was also a photographer with us throughout the day to take pictures. I would highly recommend this tour, we had a group of 14.

Fantastic experience - definitely recommend! - - Great trip covering a good amount of Phuket to get a nice feel for the overall place. - Tour guide was super enthusiastic, funny and very informative. Enjoyed her as the host. - The elephant sanctuary visit and also the temple were amazing, and the quick wander through old town we had time for enticed us to go back again the next day to spend more time - Overall a great experience. Only things I might have changed is getting yourself to the meeting point as the pick up/drop offs of other guests added quite a lot of time (mainly due to traffic), and also would have been nice to have a bit more time in a couple places. - You can book this tour (and your holiday!) through me as an independent travel agent - on Instagram I am @__travel_tapestry__

Girls trip - The food part of the tour was very good. We had lots of wonderful authentic Thai food to choose from. The elephant sanctuary was different than I expected but it was good. I did not expect there to be pens on the property. The elephants appear to be well taken care of. It was fun to take up close photos and be able to touch them.

Time management is key. - Elephants were priceless. Can’t say enough about the sanctuary. Driver on time for pick up. Unfortunately the guide let 1/5 on the tour dictate the time spent at the temple and we did not get to the Buddah before it closed. Huge disappointment. 4/5 sat in van waiting for the one. Absurd. Complete waste of time even driving there knowing it was closed.

Disappointing - Pros: - adherence to schedule for pick-up - The elephant sanctuary: the tour was done in the company of one of the guides of the sanctuary , full of explanations , a little slow but the natural setting of the site is beautiful. Less positive points: On the weather side, we haven't been spoiled rain most of the day and fog late afternoon so we zapped the big Buddha and the viewpoint. Visiting temples of any kind without any explanation from Guide. The tour of the old town is without Guide , so no more information on the site. Finally, lunch honestly very short of Thai cuisine , besides bordering on the infective.
