Itinerario
Patong es una ciudad balnearia en la costa oeste de la isla de Phuket, frente al mar de Andaman en el suroeste de Tailandia. Su playa arenosa de media luna está bordeada de cafeterías, restaurantes y bares.
Destino conocido por sus pintorescas vistas del océano, las playas y los exuberantes alrededores de la isla.
Karon Beach se refiere a una playa, y la ciudad contigua, en la costa oeste de Phuket, Tailandia. La playa es un destino popular para los turistas. Generalmente más tranquilo que el vecino Patong, es popular entre familias y parejas.
El más importante de los 29 templos budistas de Phuket es Wat Chalong o formalmente Wat Chaiyathararam, ubicado en el subdistrito de Chalong, distrito de Mueang Phuket.
La ciudad de Phuket, en la isla de Phuket, es la capital de la provincia de Phuket en Tailandia. En el casco antiguo, Thalang Road está bordeada de coloridas casas comerciales del siglo XIX y edificios sino-portugueses.
Una visita a la fábrica de anacardos en Phuket es imprescindible para los amantes del anacardo. El anacardo es un producto nativo que se cultiva en Phuket y otras provincias del sur de Tailandia, y es relativamente barato en comparación con los precios en los países occidentales.
El Gran Buda de Phuket es uno de los hitos más importantes y venerados de la isla. La enorme imagen se encuentra en la cima de las colinas de Nakkerd entre Chalong y Kata y, a 45 metros de altura, se puede ver desde lugares tan lejanos como la ciudad de Phuket y la playa de Karon.

Amazing tour! Adha and Chai Yo are a big asset to Phuket and Viator tours! I highly recommended. Yesterday, doing The Big Buddah tour was so special and with these two great tour guides made it that much more amazing!!
Dear Kendra, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are absolutely delighted to hear that Adha and Chai Yo made your Big Buddha tour so special. We truly agree—our guides are the heart of what we do, and we consider them a massive asset to the team here at iAsia Thailand. We will be sure to share your kind words with them; they will be thrilled to know they made such a positive impact on your trip. Thank you for the high recommendation, and we hope to see you back in Phuket soon! Best regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
Nong was waiting for us at the end of the cruise pier and we were soon travelling out of town to a panoramic view-point of the coast. From there we journeyed inland and ascended a mountainous small road to the Big Buda statute, which also provided more panoramic views. Next was a Thai temple, subtly different from temples we’d seen before, but interesting, nevertheless. On to get some cashew nuts from a local “factory”, where you can buy every flavour imaginable. Then to the old market for souvenirs, all cheap as chips. An enjoyable private tour giving us a great introduction to Thailand, thank you.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your kind review! We are delighted that you had such an enjoyable introduction to Thailand with Nong. It is great to hear that you enjoyed the panoramic views from the Big Buddha and the unique atmosphere of the Thai temple. We also love hearing that you found some 'cheap as chips' treasures at the old market and enjoyed the variety at the cashew factory! We will be sure to share your lovely feedback with Nong. We hope to welcome you back for more island adventures in the future! Best regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
Our guide Aida was wonderful. She cared about having the knowledge of each location visited. She also took great photos of us and knew right where to position us. We were fortunate to have her as our guide!!
Dear Jennifer, Thank you so much for the glowing review! We are absolutely delighted to hear that Aida made your private tour of Phuket so special. Our guides take great pride in their deep knowledge of the island's history and culture, so it is wonderful to know that Aida’s insights resonated with you. We also love hearing that she captured some great memories for you—our team knows all the 'secret spots' for the best photos at the Big Buddha! I will be sure to share your kind words with Aida; she will be so happy to know she helped make your day 'wonderful.' We hope to see you back in Thailand soon! Best regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
The driver and guide was available promptly at the hotel for pickup. The entire experience was about 6 hours. We went from our hotel to a viewpoint over looking the island and seeing a view from a distance the Big Buddha. Due to a previous landslide we were unable to walk around Big Buddha and only got close-ish from the side viewpoint. From there we went to a cashew nut facility. We were shown workers breaking down the nuts and preparing them for the next process of cleaning them and cooking them. Then we were given a taste of each flavor. We felt inclined to buy a box. Then from there we went to a random Jewler. There was a ride that we went on that was Disneyland light. It showcased history of mining in Thailand and the popular jewels including pearls that come from the region. From there a guide at the Jewelry company took us to show us ones working on Jewelry in a room and then we went to the show floor and were encouraged to buy jewelry. We politely declined many times. We tried to find our way out of this large shop and finally did. We reconnected with our guide and made our way to Old Town Phuket and it was not our scene, hot crowded streets selling stuff made in China but it was nice to see quickly the old area and the French Quarter style architecture. Then the long the travel home in stop and go traffic and we were done. Overall a good experience but some interesting qwerks and things along the way.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review of your Phuket tour. We’re glad to hear your driver and guide were prompt and that you enjoyed the scenic viewpoints and overall experience. We’re sorry that access to the Big Buddha was limited due to the landslide, but appreciate your understanding. Regarding the cashew factory and jewelry shop stops, we understand these may not be for everyone. As noted on our website, the visit to the jewelry factory is optional — simply let your guide know on the day if you prefer to skip it. Your feedback is very helpful, and we’ll continue to ensure guests feel comfortable with all itinerary choices. It’s great that you were still able to experience Old Town Phuket, even briefly, and enjoy its unique architecture. Thank you again for your honest and thoughtful comments. We’re pleased the day was overall enjoyable, and we hope to welcome you on another tour in the future with an even smoother experience. Thanks, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)
First of all, Big Buddha temple has been closed for months, but the advertisement still refers to it (indeed AFTER we booked and paid, the operator sent a message to inform us about this). The trip included some nice panorama points to take photos and look around, a stop at a temple and the rest was made up of shops where the guide pushed us to buy stuff. The last stop was meant to be the old town of Phuket, and we didn’t even manage to get there. We felt ripped off, and the guide was too pushy and kept rushing us and insisting to buy stuff (including expensive jewelry).
Dear Ema, Thank you for your review and for sharing your thoughts. I’d like to address the points you mentioned. Firstly this is NOT a tourist trap. The Big Buddha has been closed for entry due to a landslide, and this has been noted on our website for the past eight weeks. Additionally, our team informs all customers before the tour that while you can visit the site, entry is not permitted. This information was shared prior to your booking as you mentioned, confirming that. Regarding shopping stops, the only scheduled visit was to the cashew nut factory, which is clearly listed in the tour details online. The jewellery factory is OPTIONAL and again states on the website. After speaking with your guide, we were surprised to hear no concerns were raised during the tour. As this was a private tour, you had the flexibility to adjust the itinerary to suit your preferences—our guides are always happy to accommodate. Simply communicating your preferences on the day would have resolved any issues. I would also recommend reviewing the tour description on our website before booking, as we strive to ensure all details are clearly outlined. I am happy to send you screenshots. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the chance to serve you again in the future. Best regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)

We received notification a day before that the Big Bhudda is closed due to landslide in the area. Wish we were told at the time of booking we may have chosen a different activity. The tour to the old town and the temple was good and the guides knowledge was spot on. Thank you!

Fantastic way to explore and see the sights of Phuket, travel privately and in much comfort. Having a private guide was the way to go, and Adah provided a professional and extremely friendly day trip around beautiful Phuket. Adah was very knowledgeable and provided some great detail and insights, as well as answers to our many questions on Phuket throughout our journey. It made the tour that much better. Our driver was excellent, the van was spacious, clean and comfortable and he always provided ice cold water and towels after each stop, much appreciated. Thoroughly recommend this way to see some fantastic parts of Phuket, and its a great, effective and valuable way to do a tour. Particularly for families or small group of friends.
