Bewertung - Germany - 2025-07-09
"Toller Service – ich war wirklich zufrieden und werde auf jeden Fall wieder buchen." Phuket Private Day Tour – Around the Island Highlights
Lim - Singapore - 2025-07-08
"We visited Phuket as a family with both young children and elderly parents. Oriental Escape provided a baby seat and a wheelchair free of charge, which made everything much more convenient.
Our guide, Nancy, was incredibly helpful and ensured everything ran smoothly. The restaurant she recommended was perfect — great food and even a play area for the kids, so the adults could enjoy their meal in peace.
The van was clean, comfortable, and up to high standards, with bottled water provided. Our driver was calm, kind, and very professional. We truly appreciated the thoughtful service throughout the day." Phuket Private Day Tour – Around the Island Highlights
Daniel - Australia - 2025-07-06
"I’ve had bad experiences in the past with local taxis taking me to jewelry shops or tourist trap stores — it’s frustrating and uncomfortable. But with Oriental Escape, everything was different. The driver was polite, flexible, and truly professional. We were traveling as a family with kids, and as expected, snacks and messes happened in the car — but I noticed that the driver quietly cleaned and kept the vehicle spotless whenever he had a moment. He drove calmly and safely, which made us feel very at ease.
Sure, Oriental Escape isn’t the cheapest option — but it’s definitely the right one if you value peace of mind, reliability, and a quality experience." Phuket Private Day Tour – Around the Island Highlights

"At first, I planned to rent a car and drive myself around Phuket. But once I arrived, I realized that hiring a private car with a driver was a much safer and more relaxing choice. I’d like to thank our driver, Khun Chai, for taking us around exactly as we wanted. He helped fine-tune our route to avoid backtracking, which saved us a lot of time and allowed us to visit every place on our list. He even helped take great photos of me and my wife. Thank you so much for the excellent service!" Phuket Private Day Tour – Around the Island Highlights

"الخدمة كانت رائعة والتنظيم ممتاز. شكراً لكم على كل شيء." Phuket Private Day Tour – Around the Island Highlights
Sue - United Kingdom - 2025-04-28
"Overall, the service was good. There were a few moments where communication in English with the driver was a bit difficult, but he quickly contacted the office and had us speak with a staff member to clarify everything — which was helpful. Still, I was hoping the driver could speak a bit more English directly.
Also, traffic in Phuket was heavier than I expected. We had to skip one or two planned stops because we ran out of time." Phuket Private Day Tour – Around the Island Highlights
Questions about Phuket Private Day Tour – Around the Island Highlights (5)
Q
Can I book a photographer or drone shoot during the tour? Yusuf - 68 Days ago
A
Yes, you can add a professional photographer to your tour. They’ll help capture beautiful, natural photos throughout the day, with light editing included. All usable images will be delivered via Google Drive within 48 hours.
For drone shoots, please note that Thai law requires advance permission and restricts flying in certain areas (e.g. near airports or private properties). If you’re interested, kindly share your planned itinerary with us in advance so we can advise on feasibility. Toni - answered within 1 minute [TicketID # 7205]
Q
Is an English-speaking driver enough, or should I add a licensed guide? Lee - 72 Days ago
A
Our service includes a professional driver who is familiar with the local area and can communicate in basic English. If you’ve already planned your itinerary and are mainly looking for private transportation and flexibility, the driver alone is usually sufficient.
However, if you prefer in-depth information about the places you visit or would like help planning the route, hiring a licensed English-speaking guide is highly recommended.
Please note: According to Thai law, only licensed guides are allowed to provide commentary or historical explanations at cultural and heritage sites. Drivers are not permitted to perform this role. Wittaya L - answered within 2 Hours [TicketID # 7203]
Q
Can I customize the itinerary or choose where to stop? Yusuf - 88 Days ago
A
Yes, absolutely. This is a fully private tour, so you’re free to tailor the itinerary based on your interests. Whether you’d like to focus on scenic photo spots, hidden beaches, cultural sites, or stylish cafés — just let your driver know. You’ll have full flexibility to enjoy the day at your own pace. Wittaya L - answered within 2 Hours [TicketID # 7204]
Q
I’m not sure how many hours I’ll need. Can I book 6 hours first and pay for any extra time after the tour? Susan - 98 Days ago
A
Absolutely. You can book the 6-hour option to start with, and if you decide to extend the tour, we’ll simply charge the additional time afterward based on the actual usage. David - answered within 26 minute [TicketID # 7202]
Q
Can I add a stop for sunset or beach time at the end of the tour? Vancoff - 130 Days ago
A
Yes, absolutely. We’ll help plan your day so you arrive at the right spot in time for sunset. The sunset time in Phuket varies by season, so proper timing is important. Phuket offers both popular viewpoints and quieter, hidden spots known mostly to locals — we’ll tailor the stop to your preference for a perfect end to your tour.
