Beautiful Phuket with its gorgeous beaches, cultural temples, colorful towns, and picturesque coastlines is one of the most scenic islands Thailand has to offer. If you’re looking to spend the day in Phuket’s most Instagrammable spots or just want to admire the beauty of the island, this full-day tour is for you!
Don’t let the name fool you! The old town of Phuket is known for its vibrantly colored, century-old Sino-Portuguese houses that will transport you to a different era. We’ll wander around the streets, taking in the sights and sounds, and explore Soi Romanee, one of the most famous streets in the old town.
Up next is Chaithararam Temple or Wat Chalong. It is the largest and most sacred temple in Phuket, as it houses a bone fragment of Buddha. We’ll wander around the temple, taking in the decorative walls and ceilings that depict mosaics of Buddha’s life.
After taking in the glory that is Wat Chalong, we will head over to The Big Buddha, aptly named for the large 45-meter-tall alabaster statue of Buddha sitting atop a hill. We’ll snap some photos of this famous landmark as well as the surrounding scenery. We’ll later take a breather and partake of a delicious local lunch before making our way to Promthep Cape to take photos of even more seascapes and gorgeous views to memorialize the day’s adventure.
To end the day, we’ll head toYaNui Beach where we’ll have some free time to rest and relax, snorkel and swim.
