Don't pay a fortune: ECO Guesthouse near Naiyang Beach, Phuket
 
Some of ECOG's guests wish to get an overview of tropical animal life at one day. We suggest a trip by a taxi driven by an experienced and English speaking driver to the zoo and the aquarium.
It a lot to be seen. Try to start early in the morning!

*1* Phuket Zoo
is around one hour by taxi off ECOG. Have a look to the presentation of local animals as there are birds, snakes, insects, fish, ...

They offer daily shows of elephants, monkeys and crocodiles. Watching elephants and monkeys working like a circus artist is surely a fun, especially for children. But to see how young men work with crocodiles - even putting their heads into crocodile's mouth - is not everybody's fun. More info at their own website

*2* At Phuket Aquarium

other dangerous creatures together with peaceful ones of course may be seen. One of the most attractive architecture elements is a tunnel of glass passing a big water tank like a tunnel passes a mountain.

But different to a dark road tunnel this tunnel opens the view into the fantastic environment of local sea's population. Admire sharks, rays, turtles, colored fish and unterwater plants.

*3* Floating Restaurant

Don't want to return home hungry? Here's the help: After having passed Phuket Town northbound after one hour have a break. Make an U-turn on H 402, go back direction Phuket Town until intersection to Laem Hin Port. Follow the road until its end (~ 5 km). Take a boat there and have a transfer (10 min) to a floating restaurant. Don't care about the darkness. The boatman knows the way. You may trust in him. The short passage and seafood dinner are worth your time and your money. One of our guests said afterwards: "The most impressive excursion and the nicest dinner of my stay in Phuket."
