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!

No one else booked on Monday, so I effectively had a private tour with Palm. He was very cordial, took time and effort to describe or explain each landmark, and was generous with supplying tips and suggestions for what to do while in Phuket. Having been to university in Bangkok, his spoken English was at a high level.

Palm was a fantastic driver. He took us to each place, gave a brief background of each place and gave us time to explore on our own. Myself and my partner were the only ones in the small group tour, so became a private trip. Tour does not include 1:1 going into each temple or place and discussing culture or history, would have liked to understand it all more. Phuket town we got a tour through a few historical places. Would recommend, car was clean and cooler wa s great.
