We are absolutely confident that this time of Phuket has never eat drink is silence, but no Bellman to your luggage.

20 tips to avoid strain. Royal paradise is a small number of high-rise buildings, can be said to be the landmark Oh.

Carrefour is also very close to home, the breakfast is rich.

Personally think that price is very high.

5/24 time full so chose the Cliff Bay 1 day tour of the project.

(We buy tickets when you have to select the right seat, abcd is the first 4 rows and then is 20-35, compare middle seat.

Agent there decided to seat number, must be specific to several row number. Otherwise, spend the money they receive vip is very eccentric seat also is possible)

Theatre provides drinking water to a Cup, no longer take drinks in.

The car very early pick up, when exactly is the end of the previous field, are good team renyao greet photo, for some reason now charges are 50 baht/Chang Oh, General is 40 baht per picture. Slippery will come over "of Goblin by hand" Note charges is double the price, so take time to calm and speak good later called Pat, no beats, is unable to collect the money.

Show quite nice, not colour worldly, stage lighting, costumes are great, is recommended to look at.

5/25 by boat to the island's northern, Pipi car to pass through the town of Phuket, you can directly go to the guests of the hooded Phuket Town, contact well in advance and agent.

The return trip is open, go to the North of the ship that is not open to reconsideration of tongsai but change horses in the middle of the boat.

We just missed the boat transfer to tongsai.

Also good to eat when we encountered was to compatriots holiday inn's so discuss chartering, reduces loss. General shipping price is 300 baht/hour depending on the location and time taken together.

On the way go bamboo Island, mosquito Island, snorkeling.

(Bamboo island and Maya Bay is on the island of 200 baht/person fee) is no good, solid waste pollution. Recommendations directly in shallow waters.

5/26/1, holiday inn trance can be found in the hotel's private beach (canoe, snorkeling (better than the sea, something rarely) Beach hammock, the evening can catch crabs) and many other hotel facilities (swimming pool, recreation room or something, like a hotel for diy system, unattended and guide the little play, the air conditioning did not open) in particular the hotel waiter is essentially dormant state, do not expect a warm service (in addition to the check in time is a pretty careful service mm) since no matter.

Eat is even worse, in addition to breakfast, bread and drinks point color is other, supplies or cost too high do not know, anyway, I had the worst hotel breakfast. Buffet was heard so no attempt. If you want to eat well, another point ***.

The following specific introduction hotel

On the room:

According to my observation, low season come garden room on OK, the spacing of the House is small, and walk the remaining money more nourishing fruit, in the room there is little difference.

The last row of garden houses have been built on the "Hill", but if there is almost no season opened generally compare top arrangement, so there is no much difference.

About eat

Holiday inn on the island in addition to their own restaurant (Flash GUI) outside there are 2 family, a home is a fisherman, affordable so business Flash is good, it is said that serve to 1 hour.

No way, are scarce. The table is open on the beach, only dinner. Rain words not chutan, indoor only 3 table needs to queue up an appointment.

Another is a bit petty bourgeoisie of exotic, the price is cheaper than a hotel, but less expensive, and small to arrive at a surprisingly slow, and the pace of life, even to eat 3 Leighton down have the impulse to flee.

About bath

Northern energy limited are relying on their own generator supply, air conditioning needs long time to cool down the water a little salty but much better than sea water, hotel every day 2 bottles of water, 4 star hotels in bath and bathroom compared with remark or can improvise.

Green bath towels every day will supplement (2-day 1 wrap sheets)

On rainy season

The rainy season it rains or very frequent night it started to rain in the morning, morning rain in the afternoon sunny or cloudy.

Rains scenarios we have not met, has no effect on the trip, but his passion for waterProject friends to consider, after all the rain after what you want to dive light sea water.

Summary

The scenery is nice, but is not passed on to the land, or sea from the southern tip of the day after day, to not really a bit busy excruciating.

5/27 today to check out the southern island to Pipi, Hotel requires prior to 11: 00 check-out.

And then we and understanding friend chartering to the southern way to Maya Bay snorkeling. However, the weather suddenly changed, the crest is great, so won't be able to log on the beach can only be read on the boat and then directly to the tongsai Bay for lunch. Tongsai Bay is very lively, streets are massage, agent shop, souvenir shop, tattoo shops, restaurants, convenience stores, the Exchange store. So everything is very convenient. Here live also much less expensive. However unbeatable sea views on the poor. Because of too many boats and visitors only have a small piece of Riviera Beach. That night we stayed bayview resort. Also the cabin structure, unusually can see tongsai Bay facing the sea, everything is good is the place too, feel is going to end. Surrounding the beach is near bars and vessel wastes pollution, is a school next door.

5/28 morning run out after dinner with a long tail boat to the hotel to tongsai terminal for the ship back to Phuket, a day long great Halo (prepare seasickness pills or wise) dimly the Phuket Pier.

And to discuss future drivers directly we go shoping.

centeral festival

1. on the mail Pack: 3f to cinema in the opposite direction to the end some help desk, send packets, translation, rebates where invoicing.

2. with regard to eat: 2f has many places to eat, do not go to the big c there besides kendeji only one chafing.

3. buy: 1f have sale field (underwear is duanma, you can see)

Supermarket: because the big c bought things so there is no careful shopping, you should have a lot of souvenirs you can buy.

High card: the airport can get its map data, Shopaholic recommends prior survey good price

Ikea: Japanese cosmetics, the price is higher than your little Japan, but still cheap

Naraya: store comparison difficult, style, only the bow section of the bag and white clothes, etc., not to buy.

4. with regard to the Exchange: there are banks, in turn, displacing the exchange rate table for a period of not less than five, choose a price most appropriate exchange ratio in Alba East also cost-effective

big c

Out the back door (opposite homework) to the left, go straight on for 5 minutes you can see, is the local supermarket, eat much, mostly daily necessities, the specialty is also very small.

Recommended not to go.

Ask the taxi to Alba East, about the price down to 300 baht (sign is 350, you can find the driver on the price).

Today in the ibis hotel economical, room is very small.

But very new and clean Oh. The program also is one of several hotels in the best, we check out too early in the morning, the hotel has also prepared the intimate breakfast packaged services, although there is no rich content, but my heart is very happy.

5/29 return

Morning flights departing 7.00 way Bangkok airport back to Shanghai

Last stop today is the Bangkok airport, which is the largest duty-free shops at the airport, it really worthy.

Here specialities, bird's nest, cosmetics, high card a lot. However are heavy-like, prices are uniform, not tired, just like the price.

Where Exchange is big loss, loss of, the best way is to use UnionPay card.

No fees, the price is around 1: 5.

Bought a bunch of elephant chocolate and nausea pattern of Thailand tobacco, there is the legendary Nivea whitening series.

These I have seen out there also. Finally meet the woman's shopping desires, on the flight home. (By the way don't work under head blood Ah, this airport storm incredibly, leave some time to get to the boarding gate, e10 at the end of the airport, but also customs clearance check again. I think many people) are quick-Jet, almost. Woman woman as duty-free shops and cosmetics will head is spinning, the excitement!

Special Note:

1. Phuket many local people not understand English, with good Web hosting or need.

2. sunscreen to Alba East of Carrefour buy cheapest la, airport is expensive (suit needs 480b).

3. the owner doesn't allow it's up to people or go to the mall to buy cost-effective, it really is not so easy to make a counter-offer.

4. a tip is not so necessary, many people do not give.

Generally only need to pay to hotel Bellman and room cleaning.

5. camera waterproof bags use or need, we encounter a paste-type waterproof bags leaking or dive time due to the pressure too great camera direct

Scrap of Comrade.

I buy is what kind of screw screws, no leakage, but fog, can only be used in underwater filming and photography.

Taobao to buy, the price is $ 70.

6. Carrefour in diving tube prices is not cheap, usually 60-200 Yuan between.

Or buy cheap ~ Taobao's opening line of the tube

As long as snorkeling not to underwater drilling is not the water.

7. snorkeling vest and be sure to pick the right own build, not too uncomfortable for the General Assembly.

8. local voltage and Shanghai is the same, there is no need to buy converter, however 2 eyes, you need to plug in the computer's own 3

Eye converter.
