Phuket

Thailand

Phuket, Thailand’s largest island, is a vibrant blend of cultures. Once a key port on the Silk Road, it attracted people from all over the world in search of new opportunities. Today, Phuket Town, the island’s capital, reflects the rich heritage brought by migrants from China, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, and more.

As you explore the colorful streets of Old Town, you’ll be charmed by its unique Sino-Portuguese architecture. Every building has a story to tell. Visit Phuket’s first hotel, made famous by The Beach movie, and stroll down Soi Rommanee, a former red-light district now considered one of the most beautiful streets in the world.

At the amulet market, you’ll find talismans for good luck, while the former governor’s house offers a glimpse into Phuket’s past. You will see hidden gems: historic buildings whose walls have witnessed the passage of time, and vivid graffiti that pays homage to Phuket’s unique culinary traditions.

Phuket's cuisine is a fragrant blend of influences — Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Peranakan. During the tour, you will get to know the island’s most iconic dishes, which earned Phuket Town the title of UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy. You might taste history itself: traditional snacks from a century-old eatery, roti pancakes paired with curry in a Michelin Guide-rated café, and 3D ice cream shaped like one of Phuket’s landmarks.

As you journey through Phuket, every sight invites you to discover more about this remarkable island.
