The tour was very well organized and Daisey was a wonderful guide, providing a lot of information about each tour stop. Mr D. did a great job as our driver.
We had a great tour of Big Buddha, Wat Chalong temple and time to spend in Phuket town. We were picked up from hotel 8.45 and returned 2.45. Air conditioned mini bus, lots of space and Daisy as our guide. What a lovely person, gave us lots of facts and stories of areas we visited and happy to take photos of us. I would definitely recommend, very good value and an easy way to see some lovely sights and island viewpoints.
My family thoroughly enjoyed our Phuket city tour. We chose this tour as it had hotel pickup for ease. The transfer itself was very nice and comfortable with amazing air con. Each spot we visited was perfect and picturesque, our tour guide Daisy was very knowledgable especially when we were visiting the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong. Daisy was such a sweet guide too and was extremely friendly and would always be happy to take pictures of my family to help make the trip even more memorable. The trip to old Phuket town was gorgeous too with plenty of time to roam the shops and admire the architecture. For the price of the trip I was extremely happy and satisfied and would recommend to anyone!
