The tour was great. Since we are here during the rainy season, it seemed that not many people had booked the tour, so there were only two of us. We were driven around in a new, clean car by the nice guide. All the stations were very nice and interesting and there were no unnecessary stops.

This tour was a great way to see the highlights of Phuket without taking up a full day. We spent just about the right amount of time at each place, however had I not already have been staying in the Old Town, I probably would have wanted a bit more of an in-depth walking tour. The guide/driver was very friendly however and pick up was very efficient.

Pam was our tour guide who was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable. He spoke very good English and knew all of the history of Phuket. We were the only two people on the tour on the day so it was very personal and not stressful, with information and guide from Pam as well as space and time for pictures and to take in the scenery. The tour is well worth the money and we thank Pam our tour guide!
