"Phuket Let's Go" - Amazing Phangnga Treasures x James Bond Sunrise Trekking!

View from James Bond Island

I love Adventure - Well, when it comes to travel...I want everything in between, from walking in the street to taste the best local foods in town to try the best spas and, to stay in luxury resort. But, if sunrise or  sunset is what I am going to see? definitely, I'm up to that adventure and experience! It's been 5 years since I last did the Ko Phi Phi Island tour in Phuket and I couldn't help to do another adventure again but this time, I took the adventure of -  Phangnga Treasures x James Bond Sunrise Trekking by Phuket Let's Go!  

Phuket Let's Go http://phuketletsgo.com/ was actually my friend's recommendation since she loved how Phuket Let's Go tour went out (The Real Phuket - No Shopping Sightseeing Tour), "in a small group, unique trip and lastly, price was reasonable". On this trip, they fetched us at our hotel around 4:50AM and arrived back at the hotel around 1:30PM. We were only four people on this tour and this trip only cost us THB4000 - per person. So, here are the amazing photos I took during our trip!

Here on this trip, we did the below amazing itinerary!

1. Trekked up to the Samed Nangshe viewpoint (approximately 15-20 minute walk on slope). A light snack box and hot coffee/tea were served over stunning sunrise in Phangnga bay.

2. Embarked on a private longtail boat with our local villager captain. 

3. First stop will be the famous Koh Tapu aka James Bond island. At that time of our visit, there were not so many tourists as we were there around 830am. We spent 30-40 minutes walking around the dual battle scene seen in “James Bond: The Man with the Golden Gun”.

4. Did some bouldering to see odd-looking limestone, stalagmites, stalactites, sleepy bats, crystal-like rock formations and never-ending mangrove.

5. Explored several islands and caves, sea-canoeing into hidden lagoons at Koh Hong

6. Visited the hidden 5,000 year-old shell cemetery which is nestled around a sheer cliff and mangrove forest where an ancient treasure map is painted on the wall with clay and animal blood. 

7. Lastly, Had an amazing lunch with the view which is included in the package!
