Day 35/36 Thailand: Phuket

Day 29 Dubai to Phuket, Thailand

After a very relaxing 6 hour flight with Emirates from Dubai to Phuket, we arrived right on time at 8am on Saturday morning. As I had heard and read a lot about the Taxi Mafia in Phuket we booked a private transfer to our hotel for about 20€. For Thailand standards this is alot of...
