Phuket.Thailand


Visiting Thailand is one of the most magical adventures you could have and while you will be inundated with things to do in Thailand, a stay in Phuket will provide you with a completely different voyage. With flights to Phuket you can incorporate a visit to the island before you head over to the mainland, creating a twin-centre trip to this exotic paradise. Come rain or shine, there’s plenty to do once you’re there, but these are some gems that you really shouldn’t miss.

Visit Phang Nga Bay


An afternoon here will make you realise just how breathtaking the world can be. Take a moment to absorb the beauty of the limestone cliffs that jut out of the waters and take a tour of James Bond Island and Koh Panyee – two of the more popular sights in the bay.

Wander Old Phuket Town


You’ll be surprised at just how much you can find in this sleepy capital. From the funky shops and Chinese architecture to the delicious fare at the local restaurants that will help to keep your energy high, the old town is an absolute must-see.

Spend a day in Chalong


Located in the southern portion of the island, Chalong is home to a whole host of sights to see, including the Wat Chalong temple which is as beautiful as it is inspiring. As the island’s spiritual centre, it’s as popular with the locals as it is with visitors.
Meanwhile, the Big Buddha may be a fairly recent addition to the island, but as it towers over the southern portion, it helps to reflect the importance of spirituality on its island home. As you drive up to visit the monument, you will be able to catch a glimpse of authentic Thailand and once you’re at the top, the panoramic views are incredible.

Relax on Phi-Phi Island


Take a day or two to fully appreciate the beauty and splendour of this Thai hotspot. For many, it’s the reason for a visit to Phuket and its laid-back nature, golden sands, azure waters and beach-fronted jungle add to its allure.

Take plenty of time to appreciate the wonders that Phuket has on offer. From boat trips and diving opportunities to exploring the old town, fill your itinerary with adventure and you will realise why so many people love this area of South East Asia.
