Dear Jennifer, Thank you so much for your kind words! We are delighted to hear that you had such a lovely morning exploring the Big Buddha, Wat Chalong, and the viewpoints with us. I will be sure to pass your praise along to Yo. He is indeed a fantastic host, and we are so pleased his knowledge and helpfulness made your tour special. We also appreciate your mention of the extra stop at the gem factory; our team always strives to be flexible and accommodate our guests’ needs, such as waiting for your rings to be resized, to ensure a stress-free and enjoyable day. Phuket Old Town is the perfect place to wrap up the tour, and we hope you captured some incredible photos there! Thank you for choosing IAsia Thailand. We hope to see you again soon for another adventure! Warm regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)

Loved the ride and the...

Loved the ride and the explanation about the locations we visited. Tour guide was excellent. However, no where in the description did it mention about visiting a cashew factory or a gem factory. Please make sure that you have that in your description. We were not interested in those two factories. We could have seen more tourist places in that 2 hr timeframe.

Operator response

Dear Sahil, Thank you for taking the time to share your review. However, it appears there has been a misunderstanding. If you refer back to the information on our website, it clearly states that the cashew factory visit is included in the itinerary, while the jewellery factory stop is entirely optional. The details of all locations visited, along with the tour conditions, are fully outlined on the booking page. I’d be happy to send you the link again for your reference. As this was a private tour, any adjustments can easily be made by speaking directly with your guide during the trip. Our records show that no such request was mentioned on the day. Once again, I’d be happy to resend you the tour details from our website so you can confirm that everything included was delivered as described. You can send an email to the General Manager who will be happy to send you the link. His email is nick@iasiathailand.com Kind regards, Paul

Tour guide Tou

Our tour guide Toy was lovely and very happy and enthusiastic and always making jokes! She was patient when waiting for everyone to return to the bus at the end of each experience. I was travelling alone and Toy offered to take my photo at every location and even pointed me in a better location to get a better photo. The photos she took were amazing, so thank you!!
