Phuket is a perfect blend for fun-in-the-sun vacation and cultural experiences. Once a city in the prosperous trading route between India and China, Phuket inherited diverse culture which still live on up until today.
Start from Laem Thap, this tour will take you cycling along coastal road to Koh Sirey, home to the largest community of Chao-Le or sea gypsies. Here you will get to see how their lives harmoniously intertwine with the sea. From that spot you can also see the mini replica of Golden Rock, modelling after the sacred shrine in Myanmar. Then, get a close encounter with monkeys and stroll along a fishing port to see wide arrays of fresh fish. Afterwards, cycle through downtown and marvel at diverse heritage that live on in the forms of Sino-Portuguese architectures, food and religious practices. Here you can learn the history of Phuket at Thai Hua Museum and pay respect at the Jiu Tui Shrine, which is famous for its role in the Phuket Vegetarian Festival. Before wrapping up the day, visit a local recreational park, Saphan Hin, and finally go up to Khao Khad, a famous lookout offering a stunning sight of Phuket sea.
