Tour of Phuket Old Town with Thalang Road Night Market

Spice up your Sunday evening with a walking tour of Phuket. It's a foodie start, with a visit to a cashew nut factory, followed by the famous Blue Elephant restaurant. Then, after a walking tour of Phuket old town, hit the atmospheric night market. Try street food or pick up a souvenir.

Kick off with a tour of a cashew factory, learning how the nuts are shelled and products such as cashew butter and caramel are elaborated. Then it's onto the Phuket Blue Elephant for tea or coffee. This renowned restaurant is housed in a century-old Sino-Portuguese mansion that was originally the governor's residence. Chaipong says, ‘Chef Nooror is the founder and head chef of the Blue Elephant. Phuket and sold in 45 countries.'

Next, we'll take a walking tour of the old town – at night, the streets really come alive. Wander by the colourful colonial buildings, then hit Thalang Road night market.
