A private car and a dedicated photographer-guide cover roughly six sights around Phuket in one 6-to-8-hour run: Big Buddha, Wat Chalong, Old Phuket Town, Rock Beach Swing, Karon Viewpoint and Patong, with a Phang Nga Bay, Samet Nangshe or Black Rock stop swapped in on some days depending on light and traffic. That’s a tighter, more realistic run than the tour’s own listing data suggests — Similan Island, the Phi Phi Islands and James Bond Island turn up in the supplier’s stop list but aren’t reachable by private car in a single day, and aren’t part of what the guide actually covers according to the operator’s own FAQ.

The photographer angle is the differentiator: rather than a driver who also grabs a few shots, the guide’s job is posing and scouting angles at each stop, working from the traveller’s own phone or camera — no professional camera is supplied, so bringing one, or relying on a phone, is worth planning for in advance.

Because the whole car is private, the day’s pace and stop order can flex around a group’s preferences rather than a fixed schedule, and it accommodates parties of up to 15 without sharing the car with other bookings. Lunch and admission fees at the temples and viewpoints are built into the $172 price, along with bottled water throughout.

Key Facts:
  • Duration: 6-8 hours, private
  • Price from: $172
  • Rating: 4.9 from 684 reviews
  • Group size: up to 15 people
  • Operator: ForeverVacation Thailand
  • Includes: private car, lunch, admission fees, photographer-guide
  • Excludes: professional camera equipment
  • Cancellation: full refund up to 24 hours before

Insider Tip: Charge a phone battery pack in advance — the guide works from a traveller’s own device across six-plus stops, and a dead battery cuts the photo session short.

Watch out: The exact route varies by day and traffic, so an optional stop like Samet Nangshe or Black Rock isn’t guaranteed — confirm the day’s plan with the operator ahead of time if one particular viewpoint matters most.

Itinerary

1

Phuket Big Buddha, or The Great Buddha of Phuket, is a seated Maravija Buddha statue in Phuket, Thailand. The official name is Phra Phutta Ming Mongkol Akenakiri, shortened to Ming Mongkol Buddha. Sitting atop Nakkerd Hill near Chalong, construction began in 2004

2

The most important of the 29 buddhist temples of Phuket is Wat Chalong or formally Wat Chaiyathararam, located in the Chalong Subdistrict, Mueang Phuket District

3

Lively Phuket Old Town is known for brightly painted, century-old Sino-Portuguese townhouses, with a well-preserved row along Soi Rommanee. Main street Thalang Road has stores selling artisanal ice cream and batik fabrics and a Sunday market for souvenirs and street food like fried banana.

4

Well-known destination for picturesque views of the ocean, beaches & lush island surroundings.

5

Take some amazing photos at Rock Swing Beach and enjoy the spectacular view!

6

Patong is a beach resort town on the west coast of Phuket Island, facing the Andaman Sea in the southwest of Thailand. Its sandy, crescent beach is lined with cafes, restaurants and bars.

7

Breezy island viewpoint & sunset spot overlooking the Andaman Sea, with a kiosk & road access.

8

A nice place to go while in Phuket Town. Beautiful architecture. Some good little shops and great places to get fresh coffee and home made chocolate and cakes

9

The Phi Phi Islands are an island group in Thailand, between the large island of Phuket and the Straits of Malacca coast of Thailand.

10

If you want to experience complete immersion of Patong craziness, this is the place. Incredible street foods, entertainment, crowds of people from all walks of life, shops, bars, sunglasses!

11

Black Rock Viewpoint, known as Pa Hin Dam in Thai, is challenging to get to, but certainly worth the effort. Totally unknown before 2016, it's located high up in the rainforest above Ao Sane, and it offers a stunning view to the south of Phuket,

12

Phang Nga Bay lies between southern Thailand's mainland and Phuket Island. Also known as Ao Phang Nga National Park, it's characterized by limestone cliffs and rock formations, as well as mangrove forests and small islands.

13

Located in Phang Nga National Park, James Bond Island displays excellent profile of karst (limestone) topography. One can see and explore picturesque stalactites, stalagmites, pillars and helictites here.

14

Restaurants & resorts line this happening white-sand expanse for swimming, snorkeling & sunbathing.

15

Promthep Cape is the island's most photographed and perhaps best-known location. Every evening, large tour buses, scooters and private cars sweep through Rawai Beach and up the island's southernmost hill to watch the sunset.

16

Mellow beach with snorkeling & dining

17

Natural cascade in peaceful surrounds

18

Kata Noi is a beach on the southwest side of the island of Phuket in Thailand. It is adjacent to Kata Beach to the south. The beach is bordered to the north by the Mon Tri's Villa Royale Resort, and most of the beachfront is occupied by the resort of Kata Thani.

19

Temple in Phuket surrounding area.

20

Karon Beach refers to a beach, and the town adjoining it, on the west coast of Phuket, Thailand. The beach is a popular destination for tourists. Generally quieter than neighbouring Patong, it is popular with families and couples. It is also especially popular with Scandinavian tourists, with many businesses catering especially to them. Karon Beach was heavily damaged by the tsunamis following the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, especially in its southern regions, but has since largely recovered and by 2008 showed little evidence of tsunami damage.

21

A beautiful street in Old Phuket Town with food and colorful buildings.

22

Similan Island is the most impressive set of Islands accessible from Phuket, blessed with incredible white sand and clear blue waters.

23

Phang Nga Bay is an absolute must-do, with jaw-dropping limestone cliffs and flooded caves

24

Plane Spotting in Phuket has become a viral phenomenon the day it became forbidden. The more it’s forbidden, the more people go there, and this once deserted beach had become an Instagram mad playground. And why not? Seeing these enormous flying machines approaching from far and getting closer to you in a roar is jaw-dropping.

25

Promthep Cape is not as grand as you might expect, but it still attracts busloads of tourists every evening at sunset time. The elevated location at the very south of the island offers beautiful views on the bay and the few nearby islands.

26

Koh Panyi is a surprising small fishermen village built entirely on stilts in the middle of Phang Nga Bay.

27

Samet Nangshe has been discovered quite recently and the view from up there is jaw-dropping. As it is just outside Phuket island, it takes some dring to reach it, but the beauty of this natural wonder is well worth the effort!

28

Black Rock is not as hard to reach as Samet Nangshee listed higher in this page, but it still requires a little bit of climbing. It’s not too difficult to find as the path is not well defined as you can see on our page. The view from up there is fantastic, offering a superb birdview of Nai Harn Beach and the islands around

29

James Bond island is one of those bucket list items many people want to tick-off their list when in Phuket. There are many positive and negative opinions about James Bond Island, and most are justified.
