What to expect

Phuket is a real holiday haven when it comes to sightseeing and mouth-watering cuisine. Thankfully, the two go hand in hand well, and this guided tour is designed to show off both aspects of this Thai hotspot. Night markets, the old town, a cashew factory – you'll visit all of them on this trip. And, you'll have your fill of the best street food around.

Your outing kicks off with a trip to a cashew nut factory. They're one of Phuket's biggest exports, and you'll see how they're processed en masse during a tour of the facility. You'll see how the nuts are taken out of their shells, as well as how cashew butter and even caramel are made. After your visit, you'll then make your way to Blue Elephant, a fine-dining restaurant in Phuket, for a tea or coffee. The restaurant is housed in a 100-year-old Sino-Portuguese building that used to be the Governor's residence.

Once you've recharged your batteries a little, you'll head out around Phuket's Old Town at night with your guide for a walking tour. This place really pops at night, thanks to all the colourful colonial buildings that have an extra laidback atmosphere after dark. You'll eventually reach Thalang Road Night Market, where street food is the star of the show. You'll have loads of time to try a few different kinds here, like spicy salads topped with green papaya and peanuts, pad Thai, noodle soups, fried seafood and more.
