Highlights of Phuket Town

Experience the charm and character of Phuket from an entirely new perspective on our scenic “Highlights of Phuket Town” tour. This compact yet captivating journey blends Phuket’s pristine west coast with its historic heart, offering a seamless overview of the island’s natural beauty and cultural landscape.

Shortly after takeoff, the coastline unfolds beneath you as the helicopter glides toward Nai Thon Beach, one of Phuket’s most serene and unspoiled stretches of sand. From above, the contrast between turquoise waters and lush jungle-covered hills creates a striking first impression. The route continues south along the glittering Andaman coastline over Bang Tao Beach, where luxury resorts and sweeping beachfront villas line one of the island’s longest bays, before drifting past the elegant shoreline of Surin Beach, known for its crystal-clear water and refined coastal charm.

Leaving the coast behind, the flight turns inland toward the vibrant core of the island. As you approach Phuket City, the scenery transforms from tropical coastline to colourful heritage architecture. From the sky, the pastel-toned Sino-Portuguese buildings, temple roofs, and lively streets of Old Town create a beautiful mosaic of culture and history framed by rolling green hills.

The journey continues over Koh Kaew, offering views of the marina lifestyle and peaceful waterfront communities nestled along the east coast. From there, the helicopter traces northward across Thalang, where Phuket’s rich past and rural landscapes meet — a patchwork of greenery, temples, and quiet neighbourhoods revealing a different side of island life.

Perfect for first-time flyers, couples, families, and photography enthusiasts, this 20-minute flight offers a balanced and beautifully paced introduction to Phuket — from tranquil coastlines to historic townscapes — all seen from a graceful bird’s-eye perspective.
