Phuket Buggy Adventure to Big Buddha – Ride Together, Side by Side
🕒 ∼ 1 hour
Free pickup service available
From: ฿2,599
Want the thrill of off-road jungle riding but prefer to share the experience side by side? The buggy is your answer. Unlike an ATV where each rider is on their own vehicle, our side-by-side buggy lets two people experience the adventure together – same cockpit, same view, same adrenaline rush. In one hour, you’ll take on Phuket’s jungle trails, visit the Big Buddha, and finish at the Skywalk with sweeping ocean views. It’s the ultimate couples’ and family off-road experience on the island.
Why Choose a Buggy Over an ATV?
The buggy offers something the ATV simply can’t: shared adventure. Sit next to your partner, friend, or family member and tackle the trail together. The buggy is also enclosed on the sides, giving a different physical sensation to the open ATV – more of a rally-style experience, planted and responsive.
