Had an amazing experience on the Phuket Discovery Tour thanks to our wonderful guide Annie! She made the whole half-day trip so enjoyable — from Chalong Temple and the Big Buddha to Phuket Old Town and Khao Rang Viewpoint. Her explanations were clear, interesting, and full of fun facts, and she was super friendly and attentive the entire time. Annie also helped us get the best photo spots and answered all our questions patiently. The hotel pickup and drop-off were smooth and comfortable. Highly recommend this tour, especially with Annie as your guide. Will definitely book again!

We went ziplining again and again, constantly climbing up to the next level to play. We did it many times! The ATVs were very easy to control (not the super large, clunky kind). The scenery along the way wasn't particularly impressive, and there were a lot of people, but the great thing was that the instructors for both activities proactively helped us take photos and even videos, and they took really good ones! So we had a lot of fun!

was a lovely experience starting with an ethical elephant tour where you get to feed them! you can tell the workers really care for them. the zip line course and atv was amazing as well but i would say that taller people beware as you may struggle a bit with the zip line course. the guides were lovely as well , we asked them to take pictures for us with their packages and they went above and beyond to get good shots!

half day tour is amazing to cover the spots that I wish to go - which transport can be complicated. Tour guide is friendly and take care of us, even borrow the shawls for covering shoulder and knee for Buddha visit. Recommend the ATV to mountain top city view. Each spot staying 30 mins is enough, though old town can be spending more time.

It was truly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Momo, our guide, was incredibly organised and friendly. Her communication and helpfulness made the whole trip a lot of fun. I highly recommend booking this tour; you won’t regret it.

This was one of the highlights of my trip!!! ❤️ The elephant feeding experience was absolutely unforgettable. My heart was so full seeing these beautiful elephants up close and being able to interact with them. The tour guide was also very helpful, friendly, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Robertson Mall 2nd Floor Open-Air Parking is free. "Ambiance" type (suitable for customers who prioritize relaxation). "The environment is full of Southeast Asian charm, with a comforting lemongrass scent upon entering, very relaxing. The massage area has soft lighting and gentle music, making it so comfortable I almost fell asleep. The therapist's technique was gentle and meticulous, with appropriate pressure. After the session, all my fatigue was gone, and my mind and body felt completely healed."
