For Day 3, I booked a tour cum photography package from Phukettour website. It costs me about $660+! But the photographer served as a tour guide and photographer for the whole trip and we had a private mini van that took us to the places. The travelling time from our hotel to the places took about 2 hours! It was a long journey! We only managed to visit a few places because the travelling from one place to another and the photo taking took up quite a bit of time.
Eventually, we only managed to go to see the turtles, visited a temple nestled along Karon – the longest beach in Phuket, took some photos along the beach, went to have lunch at the bamboo rafting place, took some photos at the bamboo rafting river, experienced elephant ride, and watched a baby elephant show. After that, we took 2 hours to travel back to our hotel again.
We did not try the bamboo rafting as we were lazy to bring extra clothes to change. So the tour guide cum photographer brought us to see the turtles, temple and beach instead.
We bought back dinner from a Thai restaurant again as the kids were tired.
