What's Included & Excluded
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a SIC or private tour?
This package is a mix of both: Day 2's James Bond Island tour and Day 3's Phuket city tour are SIC (Seat in Coach), shared with other travellers, while Day 4's Khao Sok excursion is run privately.
Is elephant bathing safe and animal-friendly?
Yes – the Khao Sok elephant experience focuses on bathing, feeding, and interacting with the elephants under guide supervision, rather than elephant riding.
What should I wear for the elephant bathing and bamboo rafting?
Wear clothes and shoes you don't mind getting wet and muddy, and bring a change of clothes for after the activity.
Do I stay in the same hotel for the whole trip?
No – you'll stay 3 nights in Phuket (Days 1–3) and 1 night in Khao Sok (Day 4), with a private transfer included each way.
Are there different hotel tiers?
Yes – choose between Ashlee Plaza Phuket or the higher tier Fishermen's Harbour Phuket, both paired with Khao Sok Riverside Cottages.
