Itinéraire
Le point de vue de Karon est l’un des points de vue les plus fréquentés de Phuket. De là, vous pourrez admirer des vues sur les plages de Kata Noi, Kata Yai et Karon.
Du point de vue du moulin à vent, sous les pales du rotor qui produisent de l’électricité pour la région (son nom officiel est "Phromthep Alternative Energy Station"), vous pouvez apercevoir le trafic maritime de passage, depuis les bateaux à longue queue avec leurs longs moteurs convertis des bateaux de pêche se rendant dans l’Andaman, des pétroliers et même des navires de croisière de très grande taille venant de Singapour et rentrant à Singapour. Objets volants Le point de vue du moulin à vent est également un lieu de rencontre pour les amateurs d’aéromodélisme, ainsi que pour les amateurs de deltaplane qui surfent dans les thermiques tropicaux, pour finalement atterrir gracieusement à la plage de Nai Harn. Loin au-dessus et parfois parallèlement à la colline, des cerfs-volants brahmanes et des aigles de mer glissent gracieusement. On pourrait penser que, malgré toute cette activité aéroportée, le point de vue du moulin est un endroit surpeuplé: c’est n'importe quoi mais surtout parce qu’il ya très peu de places de stationnement. Pourtant, ce n’est pas seulement un point de vue privilégié du coucher du soleil; c’est aussi un lieu attrayant toute la journée avec une mer particulièrement azurée à midi.
Promthep Cape est l'un des endroits les plus photographiés et peut-être les plus connus de l'île. Chaque soir, de gros bus de tourisme, des scooters et des voitures privées parcourent la plage de Rawai et la colline la plus au sud de l'île pour observer le coucher de soleil à son apogée. Sur le sommet de la colline se trouve un parking achalandé où les véhicules dégorgent une foule de gens venus des quatre coins du monde.
(rouvre à partir de mars 2026) Le Grand Bouddha de Phuket est l'un des monuments les plus importants et les plus vénérés de l'île. L'immense image trône au sommet des collines de Nakkerd, entre Chalong et Kata, et, du haut de ses 45 mètres, on peut la voir d'aussi loin que Phuket Town et Karon Beach. Le site offre les meilleures vues à 360 degrés de l'île, avec des vues spectaculaires sur Phuket Town, Kata, Karon, la baie de Chalong et plus encore. Relativement facilement accessible par une route sinueuse de 6 km menant à l'artère principale de Phuket, c'est une destination incontournable de l'île.
Les wats - ou temples bouddhistes - sont parmi les symboles les plus importants de la Thaïlande, en partie parce que la majorité des Thaïlandais sont bouddhistes et en partie parce qu'ils sont si beaux. À Phuket seulement, il y a 29 temples bouddhistes répartis autour de l'île. Wat Chalong accueille chaleureusement les visiteurs depuis plus d'un siècle. Les habitants viennent pour prier et les Occidentaux viennent pour apprendre quelque chose sur le bouddhisme.
À la différence de nombreuses capitales de province thaïlandaises, la ville de Phuket brille assez avec personnalité et nulle part ailleurs plus que sa vieille ville. Dans cette partie de la ville riche en histoire, vous trouverez des sanctuaires, des temples (bouddhistes et chinois), des "shophouses" joliment conservés et préservés, des cafés pittoresques, de minuscules imprimeries, des musées privés et publics impromptus et même un mini quartier de lumière rouge. La vieille ville de Phuket a été construite sur les richesses tirées du boom de l’étain à Phuket au siècle dernier, alors que le métal était une denrée extrêmement précieuse. Dans ce quartier de la ville, vous verrez de magnifiques demeures sino-coloniales, autrefois occupées par les barons de l'étain de Phuket il y a 100 ans. La vieille ville de Phuket est suffisamment compacte pour se promener. Le meilleur moment pour le faire est tôt le matin ou après la fin de la journée.
La colline de Khao Rang est l’un des points de vue les plus célèbres de Phuket. Situé au nord-ouest du centre-ville, son sommet offre une vue sur la ville, le sud de l’île, les îles voisines et le long des collines qui forment l’épine dorsale de l’île, sur laquelle se trouve l’impressionnant Big Buddha de Phuket. Avec un parc joliment aménagé avec une aire de jeux pour enfants, trois restaurants et bars, un parc de fitness et une terrasse panoramique - construite en 2014 - officialisant le statut de point de vue du sommet de Khao Rang, l'endroit est attrayant et offre à ses visiteurs une bouffée d'air frais la capitale de l'île de Phuket.
Le marché de Banzaan est le fruit d'une famille bien connue de Phuket qui a cherché à offrir aux clients une expérience différente de la visite d'un marché local typique. Le mot «banzaan» désigne le marché du frais à Hokkien, un dialecte chinois populaire dans de nombreuses communautés chinoises d’outre-mer dans l’Asie du Sud-Est.

Avis(17)
We did a city tour in Phuket City today and overall the experience was underwhelming. The guide mainly drove us from place to place and only spoke when we asked direct questions. We expected a more informative, engaging, and lively tour, especially given this was a guided experience. At the end of the tour, we asked to be taken to a massage place and were brought to Mookda Spa, which felt like a tourist trap and not something we would recommend. It gave the impression that the stop may have been commission-based rather than chosen for quality or value. Overall, the tour did not meet our expectations.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the Phuket City Tour did not meet your expectations. A guided city tour should indeed be informative and engaging, and we regret that you felt the guide’s commentary was limited. Your comments have been noted, and we will review this internally to ensure our guides are more proactive in sharing information and creating a more interactive experience. Regarding the stop at the massage spa, we understand your concern. When guests request recommendations, our guides suggest places commonly used by visitors for convenience and availability. However, we appreciate your feedback and will remind our team to better explain options and ensure guests feel comfortable with any suggested stops. Thank you again for your honest review. Feedback like yours is important to us and helps us improve the quality of our tours for future guests.
This was a nice tour, hit all the stops on the itinerary except the Bazaar. We didn’t get so much history about Phuket. We were the only ones on the tour which was a little od. Halfway through the guide picked up his wife who couldn’t speak English. Once he picked her up - he stayed sleeping in the car while she took us around. When it was lunch, we offered to pay for (and did) their lunch and he still asked for a tip at the end.
It was just the 2 of us on this tour, but wongsak boonkong our tour guide was excellent, he took us to all of the attractions as stated on Tripadvisor! Being a local his knowledge of the area was exceptional, also because it was just the two of us, we asked him to join us for lunch which was very special. Highly recommended and 🙏🙏 Soon!
Thank you for the review and 5-stars rating! We are very happy that you enjoyed this day with us and hope to see you again at Phuket!
No-one showed up to take me on the tour. They told me that they were 20 minutes late and that I wasn’t there. I waited almost an hour but they were a no show and they did not answer their phone the day before so that I could confirm pick up or the day of the tour. We tried to contact them at least 6 times.
Dear Lynette Bishop, You put Australian phone number in your booking and we tried to contact with you by WhatsApp and have sent you messages, but didn’t get a respond. Also we have sent all pick up details trough Viator chat. The driver with a guide was late for 20 min and we informed about that when hotel staff called to us, but when guide come to you hotel they didn’t find you there. Anyway, we had issued a full refund for this booking. We are sorry that this experience was unsuccessful and wish you only successful experiences in the future.
Lots of seeing and doing. Very extensive and for that money you really can't complain. Seen monkeys and can pet elephant. Only not nice that we are the only Dutchman in a full bus with Russians and therefore got no explanation. Also very strange that you don't get lunch when it ends around 3:30 pm
Thank you for choosing Phuket City Tour with us. Thanks for review and 5star rating, we are really appreciate it. Best regards, PTT --------------------- Bedankt dat je voor Phuket City Tour bij ons hebt gekozen. Bedankt voor de beoordeling en de 5-sterrenbeoordeling, we stellen het zeer op prijs. Met vriendelijke groet, PTT
Was an amazing tour apart from stopping to feed the baby elephant that was in a really small cage. We didn't know this was part of the tour. If we were aware of this, would never have booked this tour. Also, the tour is advertised as English Speaking tour guide but our tour was 95% in Russian which neither myself nor my partner speak or understand. This tour should be advertised as Russian Speaking and not English Speaking! The tour guide gave us a very brief description at the first couple of stops, but after that it was just to tell us how long we have at the stop!
Thank you for writing review! We appreciate it very much and delighted that you enjoyed our tour. Usually in our program and schedule no have stop near elephant farm, it makes only if participants asked about it. We apologised and hope will see you soon on another kind of our tours.
We booked through trip advisor using reviews which we thought sounded better than those you can book in patong town. Once all 4 other pick ups were completed in the morning, we soon found we were the only British ones on the tour, everyone else was Russian including the tour guide. Despite this, we were ensured that we would still be included by the tour guide providing the information first to us then in Russian. On multiple occasions, we were bypassed and not spoken to by the guide therefore missing parts. Most of the trip, the tour guide was more interested in his own personal phone than the job he was being paid for! The very worst part of this is experience was the surprise we were told about half way through.. we stopped at a side road to ‘feed and meet Bella’. Bella was an alone elephant cornered into a tiny enclosure marked off with scaffold poles, commanded to complete the same 4 poses for the tourist paying 100baht for a bowl of food. THIS WAS NOT WHAT WE BOOKED OR SPECIFIED ON TRIP ADVISOR BOOKING INFORMATION. We are not tourist who exploit such beautiful creatures so we were beyond furious. Secondly, the tour felt very rushed. No lunch was included which we understood but we were given no time to find anything to eat despite it being an all day trip. We therefore wasted our time at Phuket old town finding a quite bite to eat, meaning we saw little of the famous walking street at all. As previously stated, this was meant to be an all day trip yet we were back by 3pm at the latest, with the tour guide being home at 2 as he was dropped off before we were even back in patong! (Perhaps that’s not part of his job but we haven’t had that on the other trips!) Combining the parts of the trips which were not included in the booking information along with the feeling we were just constantly getting in and out of the mini bus all day, I would not recommend with this company. However I would recommend the trip to big Buddha, Buddhist temple and the viewpoints
Thanks for the feedback! We are very sorry that you had any misunderstandings with the Tour guide. Ussualy in our program and schedule there is no have stop near elephant farm, it makes only if participants asked the guide. We apologized for any inconveniences and will make every effort to improve our service and hope to see you again in Phuket.
Thank you Kim. Our guide is a very proud Thai and provided good insight to the Thai people and culture. The tour was one of the most comprehensive ones I found and it did not let me down. There was enough time at each stop and a lot of stops.
Thanks for the review! We are very glad that you enjoyed our Phuket City Tour. Best regards, manager Maxim P.
It is a half day tour. Visited Karon beach. Took pictures of Kata beach and View Point. Took pictures of rawai. Spectular views the beach are crystal clear. Went to Chalong Temple visited the Buda. Went to the nut factory. Also visited a gem factory and saw a video of how gems are made. Passed through phuket Town and saw the old town. It is a good trip to see lovely beachs
Thanks for the review! We are very glad that you enjoyed our tour. Best regards, manager Maxim P.

Thanks for the review! We are very glad that you enjoyed our tour and you described it as a great way to see Phuket. Best Regards!
