5.00Seeny and Mr. Dom are wonderful, fun people! We had a great half-day tour. Seeny was very informative and professional. I recommend this trip to anyone looking to see more sights around the city. The drive itself was really nice, as we got to see so many different neighborhoods in Phuket. It was a little annoying having to pay extra to be picked up in Kamala. No other tour we did in Phuket charged extra. But, everyone else on our tour was picked up in Patong, so we understood.
