I really enjoyed visiting the honey producer the interior was beautiful, and the beekeeper was very knowledgeable about his bees. There were so many wonderful products to see! I also loved exploring the Big Buddha and Health Park; the peaceful atmosphere and amazing nature, including the mischievous monkeys, were unforgettable. Phuket Old Town was absolutely stunning so vibrant and colorful. Naturally, the elephants were a highlight as well; they were calm and gentle. Our guide was cheerful, kind, and fun. Like many others, I skipped the Night Market because I was too tired. The only downside was the limited time we could have easily spent a full day on this trip. I also had some knee pain and needed assistance getting in and out of the minibus. The only reason I’m deducting one star is because of the rushed pace, but overall it was definitely worth the money!

Our guide Buket and driver Bam Bam were excellent. The only improvement I would suggest is allowing guests to wash the elephants as well as feeding them.

The trip was enjoyable, and we especially loved the elephant sanctuary, feeding, and caring for the elephants it really gave us a boost of positive energy! We also liked Phuket Old Town, but only had about an hour there, which felt too short. It would have been better to skip the viewpoints, nut factory, and bee farm to spend more time in Old Town. Our guide, was mostly quiet throughout the tour, which was a bit disappointing since we had hoped to learn more about Thailand, the places we visited, and to get some local tips from him.

Feeding the elephants is truly an enjoyable activity. We loved spending that time with the animals, and our guide, Nice, was fantastic. He shared a lot of information during our visit to Wat Chalong. However, we did not get to see the cashew nut factory, and the time spent at the night market was far too short we were only given 45 minutes.
