Overview

This is a private tour for 1 - 8 passengers at one price.

After you're picked up from your hotel, make your way to Patong Beach—one of the most popular beaches in the area. Take in the view of blonde sands framed by turquoise waters and framatic rock formations just offshore. From there, continue to Karon Viewpoint, where you can enjoy panoramic views of 3 beaches—Kata, Kata Noi, and Karon.

Drive to Promthep Cape, to snap photos of the breathtaking scenery of the coastline. Make your way to the neighboring Wat Chalong, one of the most venerated temples in Phuket. A further stop will be made so you can admire the magnificence of the island's Big Buddha.

Lastly, head back to Phuket Town. Pop into a cashew factory to taste and shop for nutty souvenirs, and then cruise through the streets to admire the well-preserved and historic Sino-Portuguese architecture of the city. Your outing ends at the Gems Gallery, where you can opt to stay and shop before hopping back to your Hotel.

We decided to eliminate from the itinerary the cashew factory and the cape on the south to shorten the tour but I told the guide I wanted to visit the Jui tui Chinese shrine, he took me to one and he said that was the jui tui I didn’t think it was as pretty as the ones I saw online. When I got to the ship I saw online that it was not the Jui tui temple but the Put Jaw shrine the oldest but more modest shrine. Because of this I have them 4 stars.

I just returned from a 10-day holiday in Phuket. On arrival I was greeted by ground staff and within minutes the private car arrived for the transport to the hotel in Patong. The next day I did meet Tipp the manager of the business to discuss the transport the previous day and any additional tours I was interested in. I had a minor complaint about the driver and the complaint was handled in a very professional manner by Tipp. I was interested in viewing several temples, statues and beaches at the southern end of Phuket and also Phuket Old Town (several famous movies, including "Good Morning Vietnam" were shot there). Whenever I did see something interesting the driver 'Pon' stopped the car to allow me to take photos. Pon was the best tour guide / driver I have ever had. He was full of knowledge about the island, beaches, history and Buddhism. Booking the car for myself certainly was worth paying a little extra. On my departure day the car arrived on time and took me to the airport without any incidents or delay. Thank you to Tipp and Pon for making my holiday in Phuket unforgettable. You deserve 5 stars and I will contact you when I plan my next trip to Thailand. fips52
