Phuket Travel Agent Expert

As a Phuket travel agent advisor, I must admit I’m enamored with the destination. Phuket City, on Phuket Island is the capital of Phuket Province in Thailand. It is one of those unique places on earth that no one can duplicate. For example, in the city’ Old Town, Thalang Road features brightly colored 19th-century shophouses and unique Sino-Portuguese architecture. Then there’s the Baan Chinpracha mansion, which a wealthy tin businessman built in 1903. The estate features shuttered windows, antique furnishings, and floor tiles made in Italy. Besides its history and architecture, Phuket is also home to beautiful beaches and incredible temples. I’ve compiled a list of some of the top attractions to see. 1. Big Buddha: The Big Buddha of Phuket is a stunning figure proudly looking over the island from its lofty perch on top of the Nakkerd Hills. This magnificent 45-meter statue is made from Burmese white marble and can be seen from many parts of the city. The immense statue guards Chalong Bay. 2. Old Town: For a taste of the history of Phuket, make sure to visit the Old Town. Here, you can wander the narrow streets, where you can explore some unique buildings, shops, and historic landmarks. 3. Wat Chalong: One of the most important Buddhist temples in Phuket is Wat Chalong. The main attraction here is the tall chedi, which is adorned with colorful tiles and statues. It’s a great place to learn more about Buddhism and admire the intricate architecture. 4. Phuket Fantasea: If you’re looking for a more lively experience, check out Phuket Fantasea. This interactive show is a unique blend of theater, music, and acrobatics, and is sure to be a hit for adults and kids alike. 5. Karon Beach: Karon Beach is one of the most popular beaches in Phuket and is known for its crystal clear waters, great snorkeling venues. You can also kayak or parasail to your heart’s content. 5. Flying Hanuman: Do you want to try ziplining? If so, Flying Hanuman is a thrilling zip-line tour located in the jungle of Phuket. Visitors can explore the rainforest from a bird's eye view on a series of zip-lines, bridges, and ladders. 6. Bangla Road: Bangla Road is the entertainment hub of Phuket. It's filled with bars, clubs, restaurants, and shops, making it a great place to party and have some fun. Whether you want excitement or serenity, Phuket offers both. Let’s continue with top attractions. 7. Kata Noi Beach: This popular beach is known for its crystal waters, white soft sand, and romantic climate. If you want to see the sunset, this is the ideal place. 8. Phi Phi Islands: The Phi Phi Islands are known for the turquoise waters and soft sands - both which invite scuba diving, snorkeling, and related water activities. 9. Patong: Patong is a vibrant beach with a whirlwind of nightlife activities. 10. Khao Lak National Park: The park is located close to the beach and is known for its diversity of wildlife and impressive waterfalls. As a travel agent professional for Phuket, I’ve given you a top ten list of attractions - places and activities you’ll want to take part in when you visit this destination in Thailand.

Singapore Travel Agent Specialist

As your travel agent planner for Singapore, I can promise you that you're in for a travel treat. While the sovereign island nation is often confused with China, it is distinctly separate. The country subverts traditional images with its on-trend boutiques and contemporary architectural designs. It also is home to temples, pockets of jungle, and fantastic sites, such as the country's National Gallery, Botanic Gardens, and National Museum. Inside the National Gallery, I suggest a visit to the DBS Gallery (supported by the DBS Bank), titled Siapa Nama Kamu? That means, "What is Your Name?" in Malay. The gallery displays a a nice overview of Singaporean artwork from the 1800s to today. The Portrait of Lee Boon Ngan in Gallery 2 is a must see attraction. The lady's collar in the art piece really sparkles in the gallery light. The woodblock prints are dynamic too. One of the prints, "Seascape," represents the collaboration of six artists. A trip to the National Museum is a major undertaking, as the museum is full of so much to do and see. The imaginative venue warrants two visits, as it is home to multimedia galleries that bring Singaporean history to life. During your visit, you will learn about Malay royalty, twentieth century riots, reinventions, fashions, foods, and films. The botanic gardens are also unlike any botanic gardens you've ever seen. Say hello to future endeavors in horticulture and botany. The magical green enclave is a place where space-age biodomes and whimsical sculptures are seen over a sprawling expanse of reclaimed land. Nature lovers and architectural buffs both find the Botanic Gardens’ Gardens by the Bay an urban planning marvel and beautiful city space - home to over 1.5 million plants from around the planet. If you are a foodie, you have to visit Gluttons Bay. The outside hawker stalls were chosen by the Makansutra Food Guide as one of the best places to begin a food odyssey. You can choose from tasty cuisine, such as oyster omelette, satay, the black version or carrot cake, or barbecue stingray. The central bayside location makes it a popular site. I suggest heading to the place early or later so you won't spend all of your time trying to find a table. Am I sharpening your appetite for and interest in travel? I know you will find, as I do as a travel agent professional, that Singapore is one adventure you don't want to miss. Why not call me or email me today when you have a minute? Whether you wish to stay in more traditional lodgings or want to see some of the more modern sites, I can arrange Singapore vacation designed especially for you.
