Pick up on time at our hotel. We were only 2 to do the excursion by chance so it was the guide who came to pick us up directly. Everything was perfect, we had time to do everything and at our own pace, we even did things that weren't on the program. Our guide was great, he gave us all the info and we stayed an extra 2 hours with him, we ate together. I recommend

Thoroughly enjoyed this trip! It was neat to drive through all the beach towns, and discover a little more of Phuket. All stops were great, and sufficient time to view them was given. Pick up was right on time, and the guide did a great job at getting us from place to place and giving us information on each stop. Highly recommend!
