“We were very privileged and blessed to have Rita as our tour guide and King as our driver. We found them highly professional, knowledgeable, patient and extremely flexible, accomodating us throughout the tour. Rita even served as our photographer and absolutely nothing was too much trouble. The refreshments and the food was amazing.

Taste 15+ Phuket dishes, visit family-run food spots, and learn Old Town’s Chinese, Malay, and Baba culinary roots in four hours.
“The portions were outstanding. The seasoning, spices, and taste was phenomenal. All the food tasting was wonderful. I appreciate visiting places outside of the normal tourist spots.

The walking path was not strenuous. the extra stops along the route that included historical places, temples or sites. The excursion was within a reasonable time-frame.”
