About this experience
Want to see the authentic beauty of Phuket and visit less crowded picturesque spots? Join me on a journey where you won't get bored of the typical 'look right-look left' routine and see the island through the eyes of someone who has explored it inside out. Wild beaches, breathtaking viewpoints, snorkeling in crystal turquoise waters, jungle trekking, atmospheric temples, colorful markets, and unique flavors – we will tailor the route based on your interests, and you'll get a photo album as a bonus.
What to Expect
Exploring the Island with the Wind in Your Hair and at Your Own Pace
This day will be planned specifically for you: we will discuss in advance what interests you on Phuket, and I will create an individual program. I will gladly show you the following locations of the paradise island in any combination:
- Beaches – wild, secluded, with idyllic landscapes and underwater beauties. A hidden path will lead to the pristine Laem Sing beach, at Banana beach you can enjoy excellent snorkeling, and Siam beach will offer a tranquil rest under the palm trees. These are just three of the many uncrowded beaches – no matter where we go, you will encounter clear azure waters, lush greenery, and underwater filming!
- Viewpoints: from Karon view point, you'll see the three most famous beaches in Phuket; at Promthep Cape, you'll gaze upon neighboring islets; you'll admire panoramas at the windmill and next to the Big Buddha statue. For hiking enthusiasts, I will guide you through the jungles to the most picturesque and secluded viewpoints.
- Jungles and Waterfalls: part of the day can be dedicated to trekking to Phuket's most beautiful waterfalls – Ton Sai and Bang Pae. This non-touristic route will appeal to adventure lovers.
- Main Attractions: the route will include the must-see places of Phuket. Firstly, the temple complex, where you will see the gigantic statue of the Big Buddha, learn about the island's faith, receive a monk's blessing, and tie a ribbon for luck. At Wat Chalong, you will observe traditional decorations and details of the Buddhist temple, meditate in the pagoda, and immerse yourself in the vibrant and serene atmosphere of this place.
- Authentic Markets and Cafés, where you will taste Thai dishes and delicacies, savor a variety of tropical fruits and freshest seafood, and maybe even dare to try the taste of fried crickets, larvae, and cockroaches.
How to 'Tame' Phuket
With me, you will feel like friends, not tourists. The journey will be accompanied by light and engaging stories and conversations about life in Phuket. I will tell you about relocating to Thailand, help you feel like a local, and provide tips on how to make your stay in Phuket perfect: where to eat deliciously, where else to visit, what to be cautious of, and where to shop.
