Cultural Tours by Laguna Phuket
Thailand is renowned for its traditional customs and Phuket, due to its
geographical location, has a very interesting, unique and rich story of its own.
Burmese invasions, tin mining, rubber trading, various religious beliefs and
tourism have all played a role in shaping the Phuket we all enjoy today. On this
tour guests can relax and enjoy a trip back in time as the Laguna Leisure Host
ventures off the beaten trail giving a real insight into Phuket culture.
