Full-day Phuket Explorer



Start the morning with a scenic drive to a viewpoint along some of Phuket’s beautiful beaches. Continue to an elephant camp and enjoy a 10-minute elephant ride through the tropical landscape. Then visit Wat Chalong, the largest and most famous temple on the island. Our next stop is at Phuket’s oldest Chinese temple, where you will learn more about the Chinese influence on the island. Enjoy a visit to a 100 years old Chinese mansion in town. Famous movies such as "Young Indiana Jones", "The Killing Fields" and "Heaven and Earth" were filmed here. You will have a chance to go for a short walk through the Phra Teow National Park. Enjoy rare species of palms, rattan and tropical rain forest vegetation. In the national park we will invite you for lunch, Thai style! You will enjoy a great blend of local dishes in a local setting. The food is guaranteed fresh and tasty, and not too spicy! In the northern part of the island we will invite you to a local farm. Here, the tradition is to use trained monkeys to pick coconuts. An event to enjoy! Please do respect that the monkey is still a wild animal! Also, see how villagers grow different Thai herbs and see a fish fight. The locals will invite you to sit down to enjoy refreshments. We also will take you for a ride on water buffalo cart through the rural landscape. A scenic drive along the coast brings you back to your hotel.
