WE DIDN’T EXPECT TO LOVE PHUKET THIS MUCH! The best things to do while your here 2023

Welcome back to our adventurous travel vlog, where we embark on an unforgettable journey around Phuket exploring the the best beaches, hidden lookout points, indulge in delightful vegan cuisine, and dive into the mesmerising underwater world through snorkeling!
Phuket is usually known for being a party island and this week we were determined to show you the wholesome side of travelling this wonderful place.
So get comfy, and enjoy the vlog. :)
👫 About us:
Oh & we should probably introduce ourselves...
We are Benny and Meeka, a travel couple from Australia who have been travelling on and off for 10 years and even lived in the UK from 2019 - 2021.
We are currently in SE Asia and are making our way back to the UK to reunite with our Mercedes Sprinter van we purchased before the world shut down and we left back to Aus.
About 4 months ago we decided to document our travels as we make our way across the globe, so join us for the ride.
Disclaimer:
In saying that, we have a lot to learn in the filming world and please note we filmed everything with our iPhone, but have currently upgraded our equipment so our videos will be better quality in the future.
Thanks, Benny & Meeka

Black Rock View Point, those views!! UNREAL!!!!

[@BrianaisGoingPlaces]

p.s. I tried to click your drone link and it didn't work. If you usually copy and paste from an old description or something it copies the ... instead of the right link! It happened to me just wanted to let you know!

[@bennyandmeeka]

Thank you 🙏🏽 ✨ it was epic to say the least!

[@wycheee]

Wonderful ❤ I've never been to keen on Phuket but i may have to rethink it as you shown Phuket in a great light. The old town and the view point were my favourite 😊

[@bennyandmeeka]

We were sceptical on visiting as well, but in the end we really enjoyed it! I think those two are our favourites too 😋😋

[@balabee5238]

Hi Benny and Meeka! We love your channel and content and we were wondering what month you were traveling through Pucket and and Phi Phi Island area? We are doing the best to get good weather and wanted to ask you. We love your itinerary and are hoping to follow in your footsteps. Thanks for sharing your amazing journey!

[@bennyandmeeka]

Hello ☺️✨ thanks so much, we really appreciate it! We travelled around November to February. The weather was amazing! You will have the most wonderful time exploring Thailand ✈️☀️

[@sntshkmr60]

I have been watching all your Thailand videos to note down snorkelling spots.

[@bennyandmeeka]

Oh cool! We do a lot of snorkelling so I’m sure you’ve got a pretty good list going 🤣😋

[@สมภาสสงวนวงศ์วิจิตร]

Love❤❤❤

[@bennyandmeeka]

Thank you ☺️

[@Dogmama1212]

Love your video! What area did you guys stay in Phuket?

[@whistler1989]

Thanks for your videos! If you had to choose one of Phuket, or Koh Samui which one? Me and my girlfriend is traveling to Thailand 23Januar, hard choice for us!

[@bennyandmeeka]

Thanks so much for watching ✨☺️ oooh, that’s a hard one… they are both really nice to visit. I think I would visit Koh Samui and your very close to some other islands like Koh Phangan or Koh Tao as well if you want to visit some close by places! ☺️

[@erinjackson8010]

Hi, I'm new to your channel and I love the content ❤ Where would you recommend getting a bike from in Phuket (Thailand in general), tops tips or things to know? xxx

[@bennyandmeeka]

We normally just google scooter rental Phuket and pick one with good reviews. To save time I message them on what’s app and ask for a price and what they have available. - always take a video of the bike to show the condition it’s in when you rent it. Uhm, to avoid atm fees, you can go to the bank to withdraw. Download the grab app so you don’t need to haggle for a ride and for convenience. You can even link your card so you don’t have to use cash. ☺️

[@BrianaisGoingPlaces]

I need to go back to Phuket! I didn't expect to have so much to do there and did NOT spend as much time as I would've liked.

[@bennyandmeeka]

It’s such a diverse place hey! We hope you make it back come time soon 🙏🏽✨☺️

[@prasadmankar7650]

2021 nostalgia all around me.

[@bennyandmeeka]

We hope that’s a good thing 🤗🤣

[@prasadmankar7650]

Phuket is the most expensive province in Thailand but I am sure you can find something affordable there.

[@bennyandmeeka]

Yes it is a bit more expensive! It pays to look around for a good price 🤗
