Wana treat my parents a better buffet and chose the Suriyama which is 800 baht more. Nice golden palace deco in this so called the VIP lounge with private buffet spread. I was disappointed and blood boiled by the suriyama hostess. As we paid the difference at the ticket counters. We were brought to a round table with two other... More

Please do not expect any excellent performance or show because this is Phuket Island in Thailand. After the reservation at the hotel, a shuttle bus picks you up at the hotel and sends you to the show place. You need to buy the tickets including dinner and you can choose a language for the tickets from several choices. However we... More

food is terrible. don't bother with it. the show is ok. the elephants are ador-diddley-able. fantasea has a very kitschy feel. it makes for an amusing enough evening, but it maybe isn't worth the price. More

Compared to the other attractions we did while visiting Thailand, Phuket Fantasea was quite expensive. However, we'd heard a lot of hype about it so decided it must be worth visiting. How wrong we were! The 'cultural themepark' is just an array of overpriced shops. Sure, there were some nice colours and we got some good photographs in front of... More

This show while enjoyable is overpriced. Booked through hotel tour desk for gold seats, dinner and transfer which cost THB2150. When you get to Phuket Fantasea you have to exchange your voucher for your ticket and receive a sticker for your dinner. When you are dropped off you are among hordes of tourists and no one really tells you where... More

As soon as you walk in you realize how amazing the Thai culture is. Bright lights, wild animals and good shopping although it is all theme park prices. The show it's self was very well done and the buffet dinner was great! People have said don't eat the buffet as it made them sick but when in a foreign country... More

We booked the trip from Dewa Resort, 8400 Baht for dinner, show and transport for 2 adults and 2 children. We weren't picked up from our Resort until 6.20pm and it was a 40 or so minute trip to the site. I would have preferred to have been picked up an hour earlier so we could have comfortably seen everything,... More

After years of ignoring the hype surrounding Phuket Fantasea, we decided to visit with family this week. Although, we can see the attraction for children (who do not know any better) it was disappointing to see a 'theatre'  full of adults seemingly blissfully unaware of the inappropriate animal management. Prior to entering the theatre, you are offered a 'Jungle trip'... More

The Fanta Sea show does have a lot of hype in Phuket. We booked through the site with a shuttle pick up/return, buffet, and gold seat. The shuttle just drops you off with hundreds of people out front and you are left figuring out what to do. Even if you have conformation tickets printed out, you need to line up... More
