Itinerary
Khaolak Elephant Sanctuary
3 hoursAdmission Ticket IncludedObserve and learn about elephants while creating herbal vitamins with a knowledgeable guide. Witness the elephants in their natural habitat and gain insights into their caregivers.Takua Pa
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeTakua Pa is a charming little old town with a similar upbringing as Phuket's Old Town, but it remains undisturbed and much quieter. Takua Pa Old Town is a small pocket of a well-preserved local community with several beautiful and colorful Sino-Portuguese-style houses all lined up, waiting for you to explore. Most of these houses are owned by families that have been living here since Takua Pa was still a thriving economic powerhouse.Old Takua Pa Sunday Market
3 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeIf you are in Takua Pa on a Sunday, you are in luck. The entire Takua Pa Old Town will be turned into a Sunday Market where you can find all kinds of street food stalls, performances from local talents, and people hanging out at tea houses and vibing with the city. Unlike the night markets and walking streets in other touristy cities like Phuket, this Sunday Market is the real deal. This is as genuine and authentic as it gets, where you get to actually experience a proper market the way the locals do in Thailand. The market only happens on a Sunday from 4 PM to 8 PM, so be sure to plan your visit accordingly. It can get a little hot at 4 - 5 PM as the sun is still way up in the sky, so I recommend you visit the place around 6 PM for dinner. There is no shortage of great food here, so do empty your stomach and enjoy the culinary delights.
