Phuket has innumerable eco tours which always attracts foreigners because of Phuket’s beauty and deep hidden natural beauty. It has so many places to see, visit and experience for people that you can never forget. You can visit Phi Phi island which is one of the gorgeous islands of Thailand. A large number of movies have been stages in this island and a significant number of travelers constantly visit this island. You should also visit Maya Bay which is a permanent location for the Hollywood film ‘The Beach’.
Another unforgettable activity is a Similan Island stopover. It only takes 90 minutes to arrive at the Similans where you can find majestic rock formations and lush green deep verdant jungle with marine life.
The diving and snorkeling at this nine-island archipelago is legendary and all this is augmented by the fact that there’s absolutely no hurry to leave. You’re here for the night so let the sounds, sensations and the atmosphere of these magical islands sink in and work its magic.
Our Number Three tour comprises good food, fantastic seascape and leisurely cruising; surely the hottest recipe going for a great day out. There are several ways to visit the majesty of Phang Nga Bay but this, cruising in a genuine Chinese junk, is the most laid back and idyllic way.
Visit a sea gypsy village perched above the water on stilts at the top of the bay, check out the ‘Man with the Golden Gun’s’ lair at James Bond Island and take in some of the most impressive rock formations in the world. All this and a delicious Thai buffet, too. Superb.
It’s hot, it’s wild, it’s the ultimate in a family evening out – it’s Phuket FantaSea. Set in 140 acres of seaside opulence, FantaSea has so many attractions going that it’s impossible to list them here but let’s start with one of Asia’s biggest buffets. Able to seat 4,000 diners, FantaSea’s buffet bursts with flavour and if that’s not enough there are several other nook and crannies throughout the theme park where you can snack and dine. As for the show, think Las Vegas meets Thailand where fact, fiction and fantasy intertwine and frolic for 80 dazzling minutes.
Never seen a flying elephant? You can at FantaSea. This is a real full-blooded extravaganza that will leave your head spinning. Unforgettable.
Hit the green with the greats. If Tiger Woods says Blue Canyon is, “One of the best I have ever played on” then who are we to argue against? With 720 acres of lush greenery and the mountains of Phang Nga Bay as a backdrop as you tee off at one of the two award-winning 18-hole courses, Blue Canyon at once impresses with its easy rapport with Mother Nature.
Built around, not over Mother Nature’s contours, the courses are sumptuous yet challenging. Take the family – there are great facilities, including a top-rate spa, a large swimming pool, shopping and fine dining.
The best of both worlds; Phang Nga Bay is rated tops in the ‘Wow’ factor by day but just imagine exploring it by nigh Head off after lunch to discover the unforgettable sights of this scenic wonderland.
Dine on board your ‘mother ship’ and as the sun goes down paddle silently into the ‘hongs’ or caves of this magic domain and discover just what Mother Nature gets up to by night. Access to these hongs is only possible at certain levels of the tide so put yourself into the experienced hands of John ‘Caveman’ Gray and take it all in.
The watery arteries of lush Phang Nga Province, just north of Phuket, are gush down from the mountains from June to November each year and this is when you can experience the thrill of your life by whitewater rafting down them.
Everyone knows that elephants are gentle creatures and what better way to get to know them better than by gently riding through the jungle on the back of one? You’ll be amazed just how dainty a powerful pachyderm can be!
What’s better than learning fascinating facts? Learning fascinating facts while having loads of adventurous fun, that’s what. Zoom through the jungle, along beaches, through mud puddles while learning about the flora and fauna of Phuket. Experienced guides stop at key locations and point out unusual and interesting facets of wildlife on Phuket. The great thing about this tour is that although it’s top-drawer adventure, it’s very well thought out and absolutely safe as houses so take the kids along and discover more in a few hours than in days of reading about the jungle
Rafting down Mountain Rivers, elephant trekking through the leafy jungle, observing wildlife in its natural habitat and witnessing the spectacle of Phang Nga Province’s Ratchaprapha Dam; you can do all this on the Khao Sok Safari Overnight tour. ‘Base Camp’ is made up of tailor-made luxury tents and from here you can venture forth to see wildlife unique to this area – the largest tract of tropical rainforest in southern Thailand. You will never forget the majestic Ratchaprapha Dam with its Cliffside walls rising vertically out of indigo-blue water and its teeming wildlife.
Phang Nga Bay is another world by night. Its silent serenity can leave a lasting impression on you and the sense of timelessness in this beautiful place is tangible. This cruise brings out the romantic in you: watch the sun sinking behind Phuket into the Andaman as you sip a glass of wine and watch the amazing scenery float by. Enjoy a Thai buffet while drifting in the velvet darkness listening to the night’s million sounds all around you. Stretch out on the cushions strewn out on deck and count the stars above.
