The places are beautiful. I loved the monkeys and elephants. The boat ride through the jungle was interesting, and we saw a small crocodile. We had a delicious lunch at the sea gypsy village. The guide told an interesting story. The big downside is that it's a long 40-60 minute bus ride between locations. Apparently, it's a peculiarity of the island, and there's nothing you can do about it. The journey leaves you very tired, and it took three hours to get from the last stop to the hotel in traffic! No exaggeration. We left at 6:10 AM and arrived at the hotel at 8 PM. In total, we rode for 14 hours. The child was exhausted 😔

A very good tour! The managers were always available and picked us up from the hotel on time. We were lucky with the group; everyone was very friendly. The guide, Mikhail, was very welcoming, answered all our questions, shared lots of interesting information, eased the tension, interacted easily with the group, and everything went exactly according to plan. He even played a game with us on the way back. The journey from point A to point B was fun. The locations were interesting, and we got a lot done in one day. I highly recommend it!
We had a blast, and we'd like to thank our guide, Evgeny, for sharing his insights into the history of Phuket Island and the Kingdom of Thailand in general. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it.
It was fantastic! The guide shared a lot of interesting and useful information about the tour and the country. We visited so many beautiful and picturesque places during the tour. I highly recommend this tour.
We went on a tour to the Amazing Phang Yanga with guide Georgiy on September 18, 2025. We were a bit unlucky with the weather, but we were very lucky with our guide and company! He didn't rush us, explained everything clearly and understandably. I had food poisoning the day before, and he kept asking how I was feeling! We enjoyed the tour, but I really want to highlight Georgiy's work, as there are very few guides like him, and you want to fully immerse yourself in the tour, not just rush through Europe. Everything was great!
