How safe is Phuket?

I felt very safe in Ohuket. I’ve lived there for half a year, and never experienced any unsafe moments. I liked walking alone at night, especially in busier areas. Never did I have the feeling that someone would rob me. Also, people never catch called or anything.

Family travel

I really loved Phuket! I also visited Bangkok and Pattaya a year later, but Phuket was my favorite! I would say that activities are kinda expensive, but it’s okay. I traveled with my family, so I would say it’s a good place for a family vacation Food was good, Thai massage is great and cheap, Drag Queen Show was amazing as well!
