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!

The best tour in Phuket!!! It’s really affordable via Klook but we were able to vidit a lot of tourist spots like Big Buddha (the highest in Phuket), Wat Chalong (with a lot of temples), Old Phuket Town (with a lot of souvenir shops, stores & restaurants), Big Bee Farm (where honeys are harvested), plus the cashew nut factory & gems store and most of all, the photo & video shoots with the elephants (my personal favorite). The friendly tour guide is really knowledgeable to the places with a lot of infos & trivias and the driver of the van is very safe & careful in driving. The tour is on-time and guests were given enough time to photos & videos, the tour guide is very accommodating but that she even offers to take pics. My pickup from hotel is even free since I stayed at Patong (some areas are free to pickup, minimal fee only for those areas not covered). The best part is you can book solo via Klook, unlike other tours that got minimum number of guests per booking. Highly recommended!!!

Honestly, it was a great experience. The guide was super nice, and the activity definitely deserves five out of five stars. They asked us if we wanted to regularly check our speed and many other things. Honestly, there are so many places to see, and the swing was really beautiful.
