Phuket Explorer - Half Day Tour
The largest island in Thailand, Phuket is frequently referred to as the "Pearl of the Andaman" or the "Pearl of the south." Phuket offers guests much more than what most people think of when they hear about our island: serene blue waters, miles of white sand beaches, bright sunshine, a rainforest for hiking, and world-class scuba diving. Phuket City is a popular tourist destination because of its breathtaking Sino-Portuguese architecture. Travelers from all walks of life have always been impressed by the island's unique culture and way of life.
Discover Phuket Island's hidden gems by taking a full- or half-day trip that takes you through our rich history, distinctive culture, and picturesque landscape. Off-the-beaten-path locations and people are carefully concealed behind all the newest resorts.
Old Phuket Tour, a local business founded in 1992 with the goal of organizing tours that promote the culture and way of life of the inhabitants, is in charge of The Phuket Explorer. Our products have been highly successful for over 20 years thanks to our beneficial collaboration with renowned Phuket locals and history professors at the local university. We take great pride in the fact that we work to promote and educate tourists from all walks of life about the history and culture of the amazing island of Phuket. Not what most tourists see, but how Phuket used to be before its numerous resorts became the primary source of income for its residents.
