Since you should experience the finest that Phuket has to offer during your stay, the best experiences have been reserved.
Take a look at the photos and excursion schedule provided below.
Please be aware that the times are fixed, not flexible, and you cannot arrive later.
Transportation is provided at no extra cost to you.
As a token of appreciation to our friends, a portion of the excursion expenses has been taken care of at no additional cost to you. Your payment toward excursions includes only 70% of the total cost.
This means that you must be on time and in attendance. We will inform you the night before each on what time to meet in the main area of the villa near the entrance. The time to meet will be predicated on the pick up time. Times listed below are the start times of each excursion.
If any excursion is elected to not attend, this must be expressed prior to May 1, 2025 so that we can modify the count. This would save us from losing some money. Note: if you elect out of an excursion, the chef will NOT be preparing meals while we are gone (lunch).
In the event that transportation is missed at no fault of the host, there will be no refunds for any part of the excursion, and the host should be compensated accordingly.
