Great, one of the best things we have done this holiday. Bernie are guide was brilliant. Both my kids loved it.
Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the farm. Very educational and beautiful surroundings. Bernie our guide was fantastic. Recommend this place for a visit
This was a really neat and different tour. It was a great experience.
We had an eye opening ride from the Port to Old Phuket Farm, and very nice welcome upon arrival. Tour guide Sont was thoroughly enjoyable. Spoke very good English and had many interesting stories about life in Thailand, former and now. The farm was amazing. Experience of meal prepping, rice planting, tinning, rubber tree extract, and livestock was memorable. Even met the third generation family member that currently manages the enterprise. Highly recommend.
Whole experience at the farm was wonderful, from the friendly welcoming greeting, to the fun and interesting tour by Bernie our guide. Was looking for an immersive cultural tour and so pleased we found it at this farm. Highly recommend this experience.
Very good tour. Our guide was funny, knowledgeable and made it interesting. There are opportunities to try out rice planting and tin panning in the water which I recommend- wear shoes easy to get off and on. The whole farm is tidy and beautiful and they are good to their animals. The tour takes place a lot in the sun, so hat and sunscreen are wise. They offered parasols to borrow, too.
It was a wonderful experience. Highly recommend this. Our guide Victor was amazing, full of energy and gave us a lot of information on the Thai culture and agriculture. The whole team is just adorable. Thank you so much guys!!!!
We’re so glad we went to Old Phuket farm. Bernie was our tour guide and he did a great job of showing us around. We learnt lots about traditional farming and processing of rice and rubber. We also got our hands dirty and tried planting rice, cleaning the water buffalo and processing the rubber from the tree into a sheet. Highly recommend.
What an amazing experience! My family had a blast learning about farm life. The highlights were definitely getting hands-on with rice planting and showering the buffaloes! The staff were so welcoming, and our guide made everything easy to understand. We also really enjoyed exploring the beautiful Thai house. Highly recommend for families with children.
We had a terrific guide! It is touristy but it is hands on and it was really fun for my son and informative for me! We learned a lot about Thai culture and it was a really nice couple hours of our day! Definitely recommend!
A fantastic outing for the whole family - a little slice of rural Thai life, but it's only a short drive off the highway, so not remote to get to by taxi. Experience the traditional Thai way of living, meet the buffalo, learn how rice is grown, and taste a fresh Phuket pineapple. The gift hut is packed with handmade crafts at a great price. There were several groups of Thai school children on field trips - super cute to see!
Excellent and enriching cultural experience and our tour guide was awesome! Thoroughly enjoyed each part of the tour!
It was a lovely experience, the area is beautiful and the staff wonderful. We got to plant some rice and also see the process for collecting rubber and make rubber sheets We highly recommend
Great time learning about their old ways of farming in Thailand. Loved the hands on experience they give you. This is their old ways of living, definitely now how they live today but still was nice to experience
Me and my husband got the great experience inside farm. Minus: buffalos with nose piercing. I felt sorry for these animals.
This place is a true jewel. What we learned and experienced was other worldly and just so refreshing. I absolutely recommend for families and just everyone to learn and partake in this hands on tour. Love love love and the people are soooo wonderful and professional ❤️ you feel like family there!
What a hidden gem! We visited Old Phuket Farm (2 families 2 adults & 5 children) and had such a brilliant time. Was definitely a highlight of our time in Thailand. It was very quiet and we had a tour for just us led by Faya. She was incredibly kind, informative and taught us so much of the traditional farm work of Thailand. We had hands on experience of panning for tin, rice planting, buffalo feeding, rubber making and separating rice grains. The kids (and adults) were thrilled to be involved and thoroughly enjoyed our time. We ended our tour with a yummy lunch at the restaurant on site. Thank you Old Phuket Farm
Very good explanations. English was very easy to understand. The tour went for an hour and then you could keep yourself busy. There were actually two hours advertised.
