3 Days in Phuket: Suggested Itineraries
Tip - General Travel, Tip - Suggested Itineraries, Tip - What to See & Do
Dubbed the "Pearl of the South," Thailand's largest and most visited island is one of the world's most famous dream destinations. A whirl of color and cosmopolitanism, Phuket revolves around and thrives on tourism, yet it retains a spark of the real Thailand.
Day 1: Exploring the Island
Even before you arrive on this stunning tropical island, you’ll see what all the fuss is about. Best advice is to see the downtown scene for what it is, get a few trinkets or souvenirs and head out to the real Phuket. The best way to do this is by a morning introduction tour, where an English-speaking guide will tell you all you need to know about your new surroundings. In the evening, be dazzled by the Las Vegas-style Simon Cabaret Show, or combine dinner and a Thai cultural show at FantaSea, where you’ll stare in wonder at the whirling, swirling, vivid display of Thailand's exotic heritage. Oh, and dancing elephants. You’ll love the dancing elephants.
Day 2: Get Active
After your introductory day out and about on the island, it’s time to
get out there and get active! Admire Phuket's pristine landscape by way
of the world's largest land mammal, the elephant. Elephant tours are a
fun and distinctive way to see the jungle scenery, while the Phuket
Safari Tour offers you a comprehensive look into regional landscapes
and customs such as monkey-training, tree tapping, and Thai cooking
lessons. Of course, a vacation in Phuket also means dipping your toe in
that gorgeous blue water. Take the plunge on a trekking and rafting
adventure, combining whitewater rafting and an elephant trek. Go for a
rainforest canoe ride down the Sok River in the island's interior, or
explore the mysterious tidal caves of Phang Nga Bay by canoe.
Day 3: The Surrounding Waters
If yesterday's activities weren't enough of a water fill for you, you're
in luck. Phuket is surrounded by exquisite groups of islands, all an
easy day trip from Phuket. Ride a speedboat to Krabi, famous for its
snorkeler's wonderland of limestone caves and white-sand beaches. Some
say Koh Phi Phi is the region's most beautiful island group, so put it
to the test on a speedboat tour from Phuket. If you'd rather sail more
leisurely, ride a ferry to Phi Phi, with free time to swim, snorkel and
soak up the sunshine.
We have been to Thailand 5 times and this was the first time doing this tour.It was really good value we both enjoyed it very much we went to the cashew nut factory and learned how the nut grew which we did,nt know how much work they need to do on them.Now when we look at the prices of them in the supermarkets they are not that pricey at all .A very good tour and excellent value

The show was sensational, excellent choreography, costumes, acts and highly recommended. The dinner was good considering the number of people catered for and the value price. Great atmosphere and shopping prior to the show. The whole event runs like clockwork with entry and exit well managed so you don't wait too long. I have never encountered better organisation/logistics anywhere in Australia.
