Good variety of experiences - Lots to see. Good variety of experiences. Very informative guide with good personality. Driver excellent. Lunch much better than was expected. Great to be picked up and returned to resort which was a bit out of the way. Loved Old Phuket Town and could have spent longer there. Had fun day

Best tour operator ever - The tour operator Roi was outstanding. She is probably the best operator that I have come across. She brought the total experience together to make it so memorable.

Highly recommend this tour - We had a great tour with Noi as our guide. She has a great way of explaining the history, and has a working knowledge of the techniques used in the farm tour. Pick up from the hotel was on time and well organized.

Informative Island Tour - It was very fascinating to see how rubber was first tapped, collected then acid added to set it to the firm state and then to put it through the rollers. Seeing how rice starts and then grows and harvested. I can’t recommend this tour enough, from the minute we were picked up right through to drop-off, Mark involved all of us in chatting and he remembered our names and where we were from. Mark is very informative and such a friendly host, and makes the tour come alive with his stories on different topics and how he ties it all together.

Not Totally what Expected but fun! - Wasn't quite what expected, We went to the cashew factory, a pearl factory, an old house showing western influence, we saw the Chalong Temple and another temple but didn't get to the Buddha because it was closed due to a landslide, and we didn't go down to the cape which I was hoping to see while there. We did get to do some shopping in Old Town though which was fun! We finished at the Old Farm where we did get to see some neat stuff and have a good meal for lunch.

Informative day trip - The guide was very nice and told us a lot. The highlight was the farm. They also served a great lunch there. There were five of us. It was very pleasant. The pearl factory and cashew exhibition were more like shop visits. But even there we learned things that we hadn't known before.

Good….bur not as advertised - Overall the tour was good however the activities stated on the itinerary and where we actually went were different. That was very disappointing.
The tour guide was very good and very knowledgeable and gave us a great insight into Thai life.
