What you can expect

The Private Tour: Amazing Phuket Tour with Big Buddha offers an exclusive and immersive exploration of Phuket's top attractions, including a visit to the iconic Big Buddha, one of the island's most revered landmarks. This private tour allows you to discover Phuket’s cultural, historical, and natural highlights at your own pace, with the comfort of a personal guide and driver.

It is the ideal way to be introduced to some of the cultural landmarks, iconic beaches, sites and sounds of Thailand's largest island in just half a day. The tour is intended so that newcomers to Phuket will get their bearings, seeing the most popular sun-drenched beaches, the largest temple on the island, the extraordinary Phuket Old Town, the Big Buddha and more.

Begin by seeing Patong Beach, the island's most popular beach, and move up to Karon Viewpoint. Stop here to take in the incredible panoramic spectacle of 3 beaches—Kata, Kata Noi, and Karon. Then at Promthep Cape snap photos of the breathtaking scenery at the island's southernmost tip. Nearby is another stop, Wat Cholong, one of the most venerated temples in Phuket. Admire the beautiful designs of Siamese architecture, and observe the practices of local Buddhist culture.

A further stop will be made so you can admire the magnificent statue of the island's Big Buddha. This is one of the most important and revered landmarks on the island and is highly recommended! The large Buddha statue sits on top of the hill between Chalong and Kata and, at 45 metres tall, can be seen for miles. The views are simply amazing!

Lastly, head back to Phuket Town. Pop into a cashew nut factory to learn about one of the Phuket's biggest sources of income then taste and shop for nutty souvenirs, if you want, before cruising through the streets of Phuket Old Town to admire the well-preserved and historic Sino-Portuguese architecture of the city. Your outing ends at the biggest gems factory in the world where you can opt to stay to enjoy its favours before hopping on a bus to be dropped off back at your hotel.

The Private Tour: Amazing Phuket Tour with Big Buddha is a perfect way to experience the best of Phuket in a personalised and relaxed setting. From the spiritual serenity of the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong to the natural beauty of the island’s beaches and viewpoints, this tour offers a well-rounded introduction to Phuket’s cultural and scenic treasures. With the convenience of a private gu
