Excellent tour, excellent guide. I would prefer to shop one full hour in downtown Phuket, but it wasn't bad 40 minutes.

The tour operator didn’t turn up to take me on the tour, and nobody answered the phone when called a number of times over the space of 2 hours. Now trying to get a refund. Absolutely not acceptable.
