My guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He and his driver picked me up, and dropped me off, at my hotel, even though it is well north of downtown. The Grand Palace and Wat Arun are amazing. I strongly recommend this tour. Be prepared for a LOT of walking.

The giant Buddha statue is a MUST to visit the in Phuket. But try to go in the early morning as the sun will rise facing the Big Buddha and you can get a nice picture of the Buddha with clear blue sky behind.

We used I Asia Thailand (we used them last year) and we rented a van with guide Woody and driver. We requested Woody after good comments and feedback. We did a 8 hour day trip and they were punctual, dressed well, excellent English and very informative. We started from Patong and made our way north before stopping for lunch and then east road back to the south to the many view points. The van was clean with great aircon and wifi!!!. We also had our own hand sanitiser and also wipes throughout the day. I would suggest and recommend I Asia Thailand to any family and friends. We would happily use their services again!

These are wonderful waterfalls in the spiritual mountain. The hike is easy for first 4 tiers, then become moderately difficult for some people. It is worth getting to the top. We could witness the effects of global warming on this mountain and the reduction of the water at the top fall. Although it is still beautiful at all of the falls, visit them while they are still exited. Kayaking on the River Kwai is nice and easy.

Nice touring company that we wanted to book with, but didn’t as they support animal suffering. Elephant backs are the most vulnerable part of their bodies, which no one should use for leisure (or work, for that matter). Also, these elephants are captured from the wild and broken in (=beaten till they surrender). No animal loving human being would support these practices.

Tony was a great guide for this tour. He knew a lot about each place we visited, and he had it timed perfectly for sunset at Wat Huay Pla Kang and then for the Blue Temple's illumination. We arrived at the clock tower about ten minutes before the music and light show started. Tony actually created a short video and sent it to us! We highly recommend this tour with Tony!
