Top Phuket Day Trips

Our Driver, Joe, was brilliant. We had an idea of where we wanted to go and he made other suggestions along our route. He spoke excellent English and was really friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. We visited Big Buddha, Tiger Park, Wat Chalong and Phuket Old Town. A fantastic experience all round.

Here are some recommendations. 1) Bring Toilet Paper, baby wipes, or napkins with you. Many of the restrooms don't have toilet paper in the bathrooms. 2) DO NOT WEAR TENNIS SHOES (Bring Flip Flops, you will be in and out of the water) 3) Wear and bring sunscreen & mosquito repellent 4) Bring some spending money just in case you would like to buy things while you are out 5) HAVE FUN 😆 They will provide a light snack before you leave and lunch is included. Also, there is an option to buy food If you would like.

The tour guide Ellie was very nice, the driver drove very safely and reliably. The stops were well chosen, so we were always on site when there were not so many people there yet. Our hotel was a 1-minute walk outside the pickup area, so we provided the next intersection at the hotel. We were picked up at the hotel at the end 👍🏻

Picked up by a taxi from the company to our hotel. Once there, we were offered socks and boots. First we saw a video explaining the operation of the sanctuary of the ‘retired’ elephants. After an instructive walk between the elephants who each have their private companion and the good explanation of the guide, we were offered lunch. This one was vegetarian and tasty. Very friendly service at everything and very neat. A lovely place for the animals who really do what they love to do.

Our guides Ben and Honey were awesome! Getting to see the Bay and James Bond Island puts this at the top of the list of the most beautiful places I’ve been, and the kayaking in the caves was incredible. The whole crew were really nice, they took really good care of us all day, served us so much food and unlimited water and soft drinks, it made it for a very easy day. All of the use of water toys and slide was also really nice at the snorkeling spot. What a perfect day!

This was an incredible day trip from Phuket and I loved each and every activity. Ken, our guide was so amazing and even though our group was 42 I felt like at times we had our own private tour. I got to canoe and see James Bond island together it was spectacular.

Just wanted to share my experience — overall it was amazing thanks to the tour guides. They truly made the day fun, safe, and memorable. My only real critique is the check‑in and checkout process. It feels rushed when they want you to sign paperwork, but then you end up waiting forever when it’s time to go home. This excursion was great. Definitely wear something you don’t mind getting dirty because you will get dusty. We even got dusty before taking pictures at the Big Buddha, but honestly it all flowed together and didn’t ruin anything. The tour guides were incredible — bring cash to tip them because they work hard to make sure you get good memories, great photos, and feel comfortable, especially during the zip lining. My only “grow” is better communication with drop‑off. We waited about 20 minutes for a ride back, asked about it, and were told it would be another 15 minutes. At that point we were tired, dirty, and ready to go, so we just used Grab (their version of Uber). The price of the excursion is absolutely worth everything you get to experience, but we didn’t use their transportation again since we already had a ride there and didn’t want to wait 40 minutes to get home, especially being an hour away.

Great team that explain throughout the entire experience very well! Super nice people who got everything under control - we really felt like they were taking care of us! Always counting whenever we had to go back to the boat multiple times to no one was missing. Very good experience!
