Description

Begin your adventure with a picturesque drive through the island's scenic landscapes. The road leads you to the iconic Big Buddha, a colossal statue perched atop Nakkerd Hills, standing 45 meters tall. Ascend and marvel at the panoramic views of Phuket's coastline as they unfold, revealing a captivating blend of turquoise waters and lush greenery. Venture to Wat Chalong, a revered Thai Temple known for its intricate architecture and spiritual significance. Immerse yourself in the traditions and culture of the local people, capturing vibrant photographs that encapsulate the essence of Thai Buddhism. Continue your journey with a stop at Wang Talang, Phuket's oldest local gems and handicrafts gallery shop. Be introduced to the island's artistry and craftsmanship, a testament to its rich heritage. Step into Phuket's Old Town and find yourself transported back in time to the colonial-era Sino-Portuguese period. The streets come alive with the charm of ornate, colorful buildings that tell tales of a bygone-era. The vibrant street art adorning the walls adds a modern twist to this historical enclave. The grand finale of this exploration takes you to Rang Hill viewpoint, where you gain a breathtaking perspective of the city below. Two iconic viewpoints bookend our journey—the imposing Big Buddha at the outset and the sweeping vistas from Rang Hill as our adventure concludes.
