Great great tour! Daisy, our tour guide, was fantastic: she was very attentive, accommodating, kind, and knew a lot of interesting insights and information that she provided throughout the journey. I highly recommend doing this tour, as it allows you to check all the main sightseeing spots in Phuket, which are pretty far away one from the other, so it would be very complicated to visit them all on your own. The tour was super complete: from beautiful sights, to temples, to the local cashew nut factory and the old town of Phuket, where you have time to wander around and buy souvenirs. Enough time was provided in each location. The van was comfortable, not too crowded, and fresh water was available at all times. The Big Buddha is currently closed for renovation, but they still took us under it to see it, although we could not enter, we really appreciated this (check when you book so that you are aware of this aspect). I also advise to check in advance the district of your pick-up point, as they charge extra for some areas (but it’s totally worth it). Great value for money, 100% recommend!
