A great excursion. Many different views of the diverse province of Phuket: views of the famous beaches, and the islands next to them, and the Big Buddha is visible (even in cloudy weather). We saw the noisy streets of the old town of Phuket with its original architecture. At the snake farm, we learned about the types of snakes that live in the jungles of the island. Many tourists from our group even rejuvenated themselves by drinking a cocktail of snake blood. And for dessert, an original cafe with large water lilies. Everything is interesting and I even wanted to stay longer at each location and enjoy these beauties.
We recently took a sightseeing tour of Phuket and absolutely loved it! It's a great way to get to know the island, especially if you're new here.
Thanks to Vladislav for an interesting excursion. Everything is clear and detailed. The second year we are with "Treasure Island" - you are the best!
Review of the excursion "Phuket Sightseeing" with guide Vladislav Excellent excursion! We looked at the Old Town of Phuket with its Chinese-Portuguese architecture, saw stunning views from the observation deck on Mount Rang Hill, visited a cozy cafe with giant water lilies. The guide is knowledgeable, tells interesting stories. We were satisfied!
A very interesting excursion, thank you Evgeniy for the interesting story, everything went easily and informatively.
The excursion was interesting, I especially liked the old city and its locations, beautiful views from the observation platforms. Our guide was a wonderful girl Arina, she told us very interestingly about the history and government of Thailand. We didn't know a lot. It was educational.
Everything was great! Unlike free hotel excursions, they didn't take us to markets and shops. Gorgeous locations! Amazing views! I would have liked to walk around the old town longer (not 40-50 minutes, but 1.5-2 hours) taking into account a snack/lunch. The guide Vera told us a very interesting story! Overall, the connection with her was amazing. She helped us with joint photos. An amazing time. And the excursion time was chosen perfectly (not too early and not too long).<br>
Everything is great! Ideal for exploring the island: beautiful views, photogenic old town with its alleys and architecture, temples, cafes with water lilies. We express our gratitude to the organizers and especially to the guide (Vladislav).
Mixed impressions from this excursion, which we went on July 27. The locations are beautiful, but it was like riding in a taxi. The guide Vladislav mechanically and soullessly told us some general facts about Thailand that all tourists who have been here at least once know. Since his activities are illegal, he only talked to us on the bus, and then we figured it out ourselves. But he was very enthusiastic about the snake farm, setting us up to buy very useful snake bile and leather goods, the quality of which is not available anywhere else. The program includes a paid lunch in a cafe with water lilies. This is the last location, where we arrived at about 2:00 pm hungry and expected to rest and have lunch (at our own expense). To which Vladislav said: do not order food, it will take a long time, we will not have time. But in order to take a photo against the background of water lilies, you must definitely order something, at least a smoothie. The waiters keep an eye on this. True, it really takes a long time to bring the order. Don't count on taking photos in the boat either, you need to order it in advance. I don't understand what the problem is with including lunch in this cafe in the program rate, so that tourists arrive and they are immediately served? What's the point of going to this cafe? We've only wasted time. And that's the cherry on the cake. We're going hungry to the hotel, only our family is left on the bus and Vladislav says: Let's look at real estate?! What if you decide to buy real estate in Phuket, you'll understand what's what. Just 2 hours of your time, let's go, huh?! In general, with such an attitude, it would be better if we traveled around the locations ourselves.
Today we visited a wonderful excursion "Real Phuket", the author's program of the company "Treasure Island". We visited two wonderful observation platforms with magnificent views, and also visited the Old Town, a snake farm and the Buddha Temple! The guide Ksenia told us about the island and the life of the Thai people in a very exciting and interesting way! Everyone was charged with positive emotions, thank you very much Ksenia!
