it's a convenient small group tour with "phuket specialty" itinerary, our tour guide Momo was very helpful and took her time to make sure everyone understood about history of places or things production. It's fun and on point, totally worth it

I'm Korean and I was very satisfied. The cashew nut factory and the like are basically shopping time, and the same goes for honey. However, that time isn't long, and considering the expensive Phuket transportation fees, this is very generous. The elephant experience itself isn't long, but you can see many elephants, feed them, and even touch them briefly (the elephant comes to me even if I don't do it). Everyone seems happy, including mothers and daughters, and even grandmothers. It's a great experience to even make friends with foreign couples.

Everything was great, the sea was clear, visibility was excellent, lots of fish, the instructor was very attentive and responsible! I recommend it! 3 dives of 45 minutes at 17-19 meters.

A 10/10, perfect activity for everyone. Having taken the 2-hour quad bike tour, you'll love it. Top-notch staff, and find me this legend (our guide for the session) with whom the ride was perfect. He was wearing grey glasses 🙏🔥

we had a great time here. Abaolutely loved the AtV and feeding elephant, although it was not the elephant camp, just feeding the elephant and taking pictures with them.The guide was very helpful, overall the trip was good.

We (me and my 18 year old son) did the atv 40 minutes and 10 platform zipline experience. I have a huge respect for heights so I was very nervous for the ziplining, but the brilliant guides where amazing and I loved it! The atv was great fun, and we stopped at the view point and the big swing (we choose this instead of the big Buddha) you will get very dusty on a dry day, so do wear the facemask they provide, and also be aware that your clothes will have to be washed. This obviously did not take away anything from the experience. The guide was great also for the atv tour. I would really recommend this as an activity when in Phuket!

A great half day city tour which gives you a glimpse of Phuket. Nice views, a very polite and friendly guide in Mini and our driver Joseph who made this a wonderful day. Highly recommend an early morning trip for grea views with calmer weather
