After breakfast at the hotel, you will meet your guide in the hotel lobby for a full-day tour. Travel to Wat Chalong Temple, located in Amphoe Mueng. It is considered one of the most notable temples in Phuket. There are two molded images of Luang Poh Cham and Luang Poh Chuang, who are highly revered by the people of Phuket. You will then have the chance for a stop at the Laem Phromthep viewpoint, which is said to feature the most beautiful sunsets in Thailand. After that, you will visit Big Buddha, upon which sits the impressive Phuket Big Buddha.
Afterward, head to Phuket Old Town, which was built on the riches reaped from Phuket's tin boom of the last century, when metal was an extremely valuable commodity. In this quarter of the town, you will see grandiose Sino-colonial mansions built by Phuket's tin barons 100 years ago. Go to the street market for the best of what Old Town has to offer. From local snacks to art pieces, all kinds of souvenirs can be found along the street. Much of the old town, especially Thalang Road, still has old shophouses. You can't miss the wafting aromas of Phuket's oldest herbs.
As you stroll along Thalang Road, you will see The Herb Shop, which opened in 1917 and has remained a magical place over the years. If you are craving ginseng or perhaps dried insects, stop here to stock up on Chinese herbal remedies or to simply watch portions of herbs being mixed. Return to your hotel.
