Dear friends, Phuket, Thailand is one of the most popular warm places in winter. A few days in advance decided to join the group in Phuket, Thailand.
Phuket D1: November 26, 2014 (Wednesday)
The first day of the tour: catch a plane. It's a day of waiting.
On the first day of the tour, I was still in a daze in Chengdu. 20: The flight is a mu573 charter flight from China Eastern Airlines to Phuket Island (Chengdu used to fly to Kami in Thailand, and it will take 4 hours to get on the island after arriving). Boarding normally at 22:20, taking off normally at 22:45, arriving at 2:50 the next day, traveling more than 2700 kilometers, flying for 4 hours, sleeping on the plane.
At 2:50 the next day, the plane arrived at Phuket airport. It's very hot outside the airport. Take the air-conditioned bus to the seaside resort. It's an hour's journey. 3: Arrive at the hotel at 8:00 and check in at 3:30. 4: Go to sleep at 8:00. The tour guide said that the bed call will be made at 9:00 tomorrow morning and the tour will start at 11:00 tomorrow morning.
Phuket D2: November 27, 2014 (Thursday)
On the second day of the tour, visit the project of Panya Bay.
7: 30, get up habitually. 8: 00, breakfast, very rich. We stayed in an international five-star hotel, not a local five-star hotel.
The hotel has been out of Phuket Island, is in the south of Thailand's native Panya Province - Koala Sea View Resort. The hotel is close to the seaside with beautiful scenery.
After breakfast, leave the hotel and go to the beach not far away. The sun is very big, the temperature is high, and it's more than 30 degrees. I've changed into a short suit and slippers, walked on the beach, listened to the sound of the waves, and felt good.
11: Get in the car and set off. The guide said that Phuket Island is located in the south of Thailand. In the Indian Ocean, the salinity of the sea is twice that of the Pacific Ocean. Use sunscreen more than 50 times to avoid sunburn. Sunscreen is sold everywhere here
Panya Bay. One and a half hours after boarding the bus, we arrived at Panya Bay. There are many islands all over Panya Bay, which is called "Guilin on the sea". After getting off the bus, take a long tail boat which is unique to Thailand to visit Panya Bay. It takes about 30 minutes.
In Panya Bay, you can see the famous mangroves, intertwined with each other.
Huimin village on the sea. It's already past 1 p.m. when we arrived at the "maritime Hui village" by boat. The purpose here is to eat the so-called "seafood meal". There are crabs in the group meal, one for each person. Other dishes are very common.
Houses in Huimin village are built by piling into the sea. There are mosques in the village, but there is no time to visit them.
007 island. After dinner, board 007 island by boat and play on the island for 40 minutes. The island was famous for its 007 films.
There are some weathered caves on the island. The real purpose of going to the island is to photograph a reef shaped like "Chinese cabbage" outside the island, very similar.
Cut throat island. Take a boat to cut throat islands for 60 minutes. Boating is two tourists in a rubber boat rowed by local fishermen, passing through various caves and stalactites.
When passing through, all the people on the boat should lie flat and drill through the cave close to the water surface. When passing through, they feel like cutting their throats.
Fruit elephant garden. Take a bus to the fruit Elephant Park for 1 hour. Elephant riding. Two people ride elephants steered by local people. We were caught in a heavy rain and got half wet. Rubber plantation. Visit the rubber garden in the park to see how the workers cut and process rubber. Orchard. Visit all kinds of fruit trees and taste mango, watermelon, jujube, ginseng and other Thai fruits in a small dish.
At 5 p.m., the whole trip in Panya Bay is over. After taking a bus for more than an hour, I drove from Panya to Phuket. It turned out that the activity of the day was not in Phuket Island, but in Panya Bay.
On the bus, the guide arranges the third day's regular itinerary: big PP Island - around the island, small PP Island - feicui emperor Island - Dabao reef. Also arrange self funded projects: climbing on the lover's beach of xiaopp Island, snorkeling at the national coral center, swimming in Paradise Bay, going to Cuizhu Island, 2 hours of Thai massage and fruit dinner, return transportation, etc.
It's strange and unaccustomed to "Thai style food" for dinner. At 19:00 p.m., move to a three-star hotel in the city center.
Phuket D3: November 28, 2014 (Friday)
On the third day of the tour, I played with sea water all day. It was the best day of all.
Due to the arrangement to go out to sea all day long, swimsuit is required from morning to dinner.
Little PP island. 8: I'll take the bus to start at 8:00. 9: 00, in the dock by boat to the small PP island. The island is not big enough to live on. There are cliffs all around it. To go to the island is to play "lover's Beach" for 40 minutes.
The beach is not big, but the sand is very fine, white and soft, reflecting the quiet blue water. There are abundant bird's nests in the cave on the island. You can enjoy the golden silk Swallow Cave in Thailand nearby.
Paradise Bay. After playing in little PP Island, take a boat to Paradise Bay for swimming. Paradise Bay water is so green, green people feel so unreal, really beautiful. It is known as the "natural swimming pool" because it is surrounded by mountains on three sides and can swim freely at any time without wind and waves.
Play here for 50 minutes, no matter whether you can swim or not, put on your life jacket, the whole regiment will float in the water, pull the circle, and have a good time. The water surface of Paradise Bay is calm and clean, and the buoyancy of the sea is great. Everyone has become a master in playing with water.
Big PP island. Continue to take the boat to the big PP island for lunch. The lunch is a buffet. There are few patterns, and you are full.
Big island has evolved into an entertainment Island, similar to Gulangyu Island in Xiamen. From the high-grade sea view restaurant to the roadside stalls and stalls, there are all kinds of bars and hotels in the evening, just like any holiday resort in Thailand. If you have the chance, you can choose a tour group to stay in the big PP island for one night, which is very worthwhile.
Great Barrier Reef. After lunch, go snorkeling in the national coral reserve for 40 minutes.
Wearing life jackets, face mirrors and breathing tubes, the whole regiment floats on the upper reaches of the water and plunges into the water to see the coral and various colored fish on the bottom of the sea. However, it's not as good-looking as you think. Coral is relatively single, and there are not many kinds of fish.
Cuizhu island. Take a boat to Cuizhu island for 1 hour. The island's characteristics are not significant, or play beach and sea, but the sand is very thick, more prickly. The beach area is large, with coconut groves and woods.
The tour guide provided a fruit feast (a self financed project) for everyone to enjoy. There are pineapple, mango, mangosteen, watermelon and other Thai fruits. They are very sweet and delicious, but there are too many to eat.
King's Island. Take a boat to King Island for 40 minutes. The island is small and has no special features. It is a kind of island for eating, drinking and leisure. There are all kinds of seafood barbecues and fruit stalls on the beach, filled with all kinds of leisure chairs.
It's getting dark. It's beautiful to watch the sunset on the island.
19: 00, took the speedboat back to Phuket Island, this day all day in the sea, relatives as long as you want, clothes do not need to change, you can go into the water at any time, very happy day.
After dinner, I wanted to find a busy place, but I didn't. The original hotel is in the center of the city, and there is no bar around. I wanted to take a taxi, but it was said that there were only 22 taxis on the island, so it was very inconvenient to travel, so I had to give up.
Phuket D4: November 29, 2014 (Saturday)
On the fourth day of the tour, you can enjoy the beach, sea water and sunbathing all day. It's a day of enjoyment.
Shenxian peninsula. 8: 30 to the Shenxian peninsula. This island is one of the best places to take wedding photos (the other is said to be Cuizhu Island). The spectacular cliff landscape is the main feature of the Shenxian peninsula. The boulders and palm trees under the cliff show the unique coastal style of Southeast Asia.
Walking on the slope, looking at the blue sea, white boats, green islands, tall palm trees, like a fairyland. It's a good place to watch the sunset. Unfortunately, we came here during the day and left the peninsula after 30 minutes.
coral island. Take a bus to the dock. Take a 10 minute boat from the dock to coral island. 11: 00 on the island, play on the island for 3 hours. The island is surrounded by colorful coral reefs. It has beautiful scenery and is a place to enjoy water sports, sun bath and sea bath.
The long white sand beach is full of reclining chairs and beach chairs. On the island, there are speed boats, deep diving, parachutes and other self financed activities. Groups of tourists are playing in the water, basking in the sun, making sand and playing projects, which is very leisure.
After having lunch on the island, I spread a bath towel in the shade of the beach. From time to time, I jumped into the sea to take a bubble bath. I went ashore to bask in the sun. I lay down and listened to the sea breeze and the sound of the waves. I enjoyed a seaside life.
Arrange us to do "essential oil spa", which refers to the use of water resources combined with bath, massage, application of essential oil to promote metabolism of a physical and mental enjoyment.
National bird's nest center. From the spa shop, into the bird's nest center, listen to the introduction, taste the bird's nest (a small bowl, 0.5g).
Show. Come out from the bird's nest center to watch the show. There are three performances every day, 6:00, 7:30 and 9:00. The first two performances are for Chinese people.
For one hour, most of the performances are Thai folk songs and dances, Korean and Indian Songs and dances. China is involved in the "plum blossom" solo and the current domestic popular "little apple" group dance. There's a song that plays both male and female roles by single player, which is the same as ten years ago.
19: 30. Have a small self-service hot pot dinner in the dining room of the performance venue. The bottom of the pot is seafood white soup. You can eat meat and vegetable dishes at will, but there is no oil dish and other domestic hot pot ingredients.
Phuket D5: November 30, 2014 (Monday)
On the fifth day of the tour, in addition to visiting a scenic spot, you can enter the store for shopping. It's a shopping day.
Hailong temple. 8: 30 bus to Hailong temple. This is a Hinayana Buddhist temple.
Tourists gather around the four Buddhas representing peace, career, marriage and fortune, each offering three incense sticks; Three circles around the Puti tree; Take off your shoes and go to the house to worship Buddha, listen to the sermons and sprinkle holy water; Please open the Buddha statue.
National jewelry center. Leave the temple and enter the center with the aquarium.
Cashew local specialty store. Cashew nuts, durian, banana and mango are the most famous specialties in Phuket.
Royal natural latex center. Sell all latex mattresses and pillows.
Snake research center. " First watch the snake playing performance, then listen to the introduction of various snake medicines in the small hall.
Tax free center. Sales of all kinds of crocodile skin products, pearl fish skin products, snake medicine, gems, watches, bath products.
Dinner is Thai barbecue hot pot, which is actually Thai style barbecue buffet. There are many things to barbecue, including 30 kinds of Chinese, Thai and Western cuisine, fresh meat, sea shrimp, crab meat, cold dishes, snacks, vegetables and so on. There is an extra charge for drinking beer, ranging from 100 to 140 baht per bottle.
I changed my hotel in the evening. I moved from the city center to the Badong district and stayed in an international five-star hotel in the bustling center. The location is very good. It's very close to the bar street and the beach of Badong.
Night life is very lively in Badong District, with red lights flashing all over the street. There are a lot of people on the streets of the bar in Patong, and foreigners are crowded inside and outside the bar. There is deafening music. Every night at 21 o'clock, Patong's nightlife begins. It's a city that never sleeps.
At a disco bar at the corner of the street, they crowded into a group of foreigners, ordered beer and listened to the rock band. I haven't felt that for a long time. Although all the songs are in foreign languages, the singer works hard, the foreigners make a lot of noise, and they are very excited to hear them, so they don't want to leave for a long time.
Dear friends, it would be a pity if you don't stay in Patong for one night, because this is the soul of Phuket.
Phuket D6: December 1, 2014 (Tuesday)
The sixth day of travel is a day of free activity. I didn't go to sleep until 3:00 the day before, and I got up at 8:00. After enjoying the rich breakfast of the international five-star hotel, you can walk out of the hotel coastal beach, and you can play at will on the Patong Beach.
Badong beach is located in a groove. In the distance, several white cruise ships stand out against the blue sky and the blue ocean. Many foreigners wear swimsuits, or walk on the beach, or swim in the sea, or bask in the sun on the beach.
Badong district can be said to be a residential area for foreigners, where you can eat, play, shop, etc. Taxis, which are rare in the city center, line up here and occupy both sides of the road.
Patong is quiet in the morning, in sharp contrast to the noise at night.
It's two hours before we leave the hotel. Swimming in the hotel open-air swimming pool, the water is very clean, Wang blue, Wang blue, swimming very comfortable.
12: 00 left the hotel, the bus drove to the central shopping mall of Phuket Town, and all the staff got off to go shopping. The bus doesn't pick up until 20:00 p.m., which is the free activity arranged by the tour group. Almost all the groups from Chengdu came here on the sixth day.
The shopping mall is very big, with four floors, including food, drink, shopping, cinema and massage shop. Shopping here is cheaper than that in Hong Kong. Cosmetics, clothes, shoes, bags, even me! It's better to spend time.
20: 00, bus pick up to Thai massage shop massage, two hours, was pressed to sleep. At 24:00, the bus arrived at the airport, and after checking in according to the procedure, the company said goodbye to us.
Phuket D7: December 2, 2014 (Wednesday)
The seventh day of the tour is a day arranged by myself.
The plane is flight mu574, which takes off at 2:45 on time and arrives in Chengdu at 6:45. At this time, Beijing time is already 7:45, and it is the red eye flight to return home. The plane landed, the tour ended, and I arranged it all day.
Summary:
Phuket's seven day five night tour group or six day five night tour group has less than four days to play, two days by plane and one day shopping.
The itinerary of each tour group to Phuket Island is basically the same. It doesn't matter if some tour groups visit one or two more islands. They go to the sea every day, and the scenery is almost the same. In the later stage, they will be numb.
There are three beaches in Phuket: Patong Beach, Kalong beach and Kata Beach. You must go to one or two.
The local five-star hotel is only equivalent to the three-star hotel in China.
Thanks for sharing! 2014.12.14
