Berlitz Pocket Guide Phuket is a concise, full-colour guide to this beautiful region, giving you all the information you need in a handy pocket-sized format.

The opening Top 10 Attractions feature highlights the best places to visit and things to do in Phuket, including the loveliest beaches, the best island-hopping, where to spot elephants, and the best places to go to watch the sun go down with a nice cold drink. We outline a perfect two-week tour of Phuket, with our suggestions for creating a memorable trip - such as relaxing in a luxury spa, scuba-diving, beach bumming, exploring the caves at Phang Nga Bay, discovering wildlife, and much more. Handy full-colour maps on the cover flaps help you get around with ease.

You'll find a brief history of Phuket, and a section on Thai cuisine and eating out. Carefully chosen listings help you plan where to stay and where to eat in Phuket, and an A-Z directory gives you all the travel information you'll need. A practical section on What to Do gives advice on water sports, Thai culture, shopping and festivals.

Berlitz Pocket Guide Phuket and your swimsuit are the two essential items to take with you on holiday to Thailand this year.
