Great way to see Phuket

Great way to see the main sights in Phuket in a short amount of time. Our guide and driver, Manod was good and customised the tour to suit our needs. It was nice being in a comfortable, cool air conditioned vehicle between stops. A bit of a mix up with meeting the driver at Patong jetty in the morning but it didn’t spoil the tour at all. The driver made sure we seen all the sights on the itinerary and even included more!
