So guys Phuket is one of the best places I have been to so far and trust me each and every bit of it is way too amazing and it has loads of places to visit but it depends on you that what are you interested in the most ,some people may like the islands and would like to stay there for a night or two and on the other side many people would just like to do a day trip to the islands and enjoy thier night sipping a beer and enjoying in some clubs .

So guys when I came to know that I will be going to Phuket in some days and the tickets and all are booked i was on top of the world and wanted to do many things and visit many places but at the end we need to plan our trip so that we make the most of it by visiting every part a bit and enjoying each and every place.

So as I stay in Mumbai I took a direct flight from Mumbai to Phuket that was approximately a 4 hour journey ,I started here from 1.30 am and reached Phuket airport around 6 am in the morning as Phuket’s time is 1hr30 min ahead of us .so it took around 1-2 hours at the airport for the Visa stuff and immigration process ,the visa is free on arrival but they do charge some service fee and do remember to take passport size photos with you as it’s way too costly on the airport and we were not informed to take it so we had to unfortunately pay for the photos ,after that we went to our hotel and freshened up and started exploring the nearby places .I would suggest you to stay near patong beach as the vibe there is nice and it’s nearby also from all the main sightseeing points .

The journey from Mumbai to Phuket was a amazing journey a bit tiring but the view of the islands and all we’re amazing.

So here is my itinerary which I made so that we can enjoy all the places and do not miss out on any place.

DAY 1:

So we arrived in Phuket in the morning and it took a couple of hours in the airport for the Visa and immigration process then we went to our hotel freshened up and went to have some food .after that we went to the patong beach for the sunset and it was way to amazing sitting there with a chilled beer and watching the sunset.

After that we went to the fantasea show which was the best show I have ever seen in my life .there are many small shows which would take around 2 hours then comes the main show in the fantasea palace which was the best circus ever . Unfortunately in the main show you are not allowed to take your phones so you have to deposit it at the counter and you can take it after the show.

Trust me if you are in Phuket fantasea show is something you cannot miss out on .so after the fantasea show we went for dinner and then went to our hotel back .

DAY2 :

So we started our day with the place I was excited about the most and it was tiger kingdom.the tiger kingdom is a place where you can come and touch the tigers and take pics with then and also play along with the small tigers .so they have different sections for the small , medium and the big tigers .we opted for the medium tigers and to my surprise thew were quite big .the price for the small and medium is same and a bit more for the big tigers ,but it’s one of the best places in Phuket if you have ever dreamed about taking pics with tigers then this is the place for you .

After that we went to the bird show which was also amazing and you would love it if you like birds .then we went for some shopping which is the most important part when you go abroad.after shopping we went so the famous temples there and it was quite good

After doing a half day sightseeing we returned to our hotel and then we visited the best place and trust me if you are a nonveg lover then it’s a heaven for you .banzar market in patong beach is a must visit place if you are foodie .they have a wide range of dishes to choose from be it seafood , desserts or cocktails .

Even if you don’t eat nonveg then too you can visit this place for some amazing desserts like the pancakes and the coconut dessert is something you should defy try.

DAY 3:

This was again an exiting day as we were gonna go to the phi phi islands which is known to be one of the best ones in Phuket.so we started our day a bit early as the starting point for phi phi was a bit far ,from there we took the big boat option .there are two options the big boat which takes 2 hrs and the speed boat which takes 1 hr but I would suggest you to go for the big boat as it’s a comfortable journey with a nice service .

After a 2 hour journey we arrived at phi phi and it was like a dream ,it’s one of the best islands and the most clean beach I have visited.

We had our lunch there and enjoyed for some hours then head back to Phuket .we opted for a day trip to phi phi you can also go there for a night if you are someone who is interested in islands more . After returning back to our hotel we freshened up a bit and went to the best party lane one could ever imagine ,patong beach is Known to be the best party spot in Phuket and it’s filled with loads of clubs and the best part about Phuket is that the drinks is cheap and you are also allowed to drink on road and in open and I would also suggest you to go to illuzion which is one of the best clubs in Phuket .the entry here is free and the the best part is they have exiting offers when we went there they had offers like 600baht that is around 1500 for unlimited drinks which is a great deal for a superb club like this so make sure you add this place in your buket list if you are in Phuket.

So after a superb tiring day and enjoying the whole night at superb clubs we decided to have the next day for leisure and shopping

Day4:

for the day 4 we had dolphin show booked which was a amazing show and I would definitely recommend it it’s a 1 hr show which is a must watch

After the dolphin show we went for some lunch and then shopping and then back to the hotel .if you are in Phuket I would suggest you to for the Thai cuisine as it’s something different we have in our usual days and also the Indian food here is way too experience and not that great .there is also a small Arabic shawarma place in the patong beach lane which is a must try and pocket friendly and also the beer here is cheap and Chang is the best one here so do give it a try .

So we were in Phuket for 4 nights and it was a amazing experience and hope my itinerary helps you a bit to plan your trip to Phuket and also the main expense here is the flights so make sure you book it in Advance to have a great deal rest all other expenses are not that big and you could enjoy Phuket to the fullest at a great price if you book the tickets in advance and plan your trip accordingly.
