# Is the Avatar World Tour from Phuket Suitable for Children?

**Short answer:** Yes: our Avatar world card says the day suits people of any age, children aged 4 to 9 pay the child price and under-fours travel free. Plan for a long one, though, with pickup at 07:00 and the drive back at 19:00, and ask when booking whether your child can ride on the quad bikes.

## The day, hour by hour

Twelve hours, nine stops, a lot of water. Here is the order on the card.

- 07:00 — pickup at your hotel
- 08:30 — the café with giant water lilies
- 09:30 — the white temple
- 11:00 — bathing an elephant on the beach, then a short baby elephant show
- 12:00 — lunch
- 13:00 — the Samet viewpoint over Phang Nga Bay
- 15:00 — a calm bamboo raft down a jungle river

- 16:50 — a waterfall and a swim
- 17:30 — hot springs and pools on Natai beach, then the sunset
- 19:00 — the drive back

## What children do at each stop

The elephant bath is the stop children talk about afterwards: you pour water over the elephant, scrub its back and play with it in the water, then watch the baby elephant dance. The bamboo raft is described on the card as calm, a slow float between green walls of jungle.

The morning starts gently: photos among giant water lilies at the café at 08:30 and the white temple at 09:30. After lunch the Samet viewpoint gives a panorama over Phang Nga Bay, and the waterfall at 16:50 has emerald cascades in the jungle, cool water for a swim or a quiet spot to sit.

At the end of the day the hot springs resort has a hot pool at around 40°C, an icy one at around 16°C and a freshwater pool, then the beach for the sunset. The card lists no age limits for any of the stops; the quads are the one thing to clear in the chat first.

## Can children ride the quad bikes?

The card doesn't set a minimum age for the quads on this day. Ask in the chat before you book, with your child's age, and we'll tell you how riding works for them. On our other quad day, the rafting, elephant spa and ATV tour, the bikes are 250cc and the card asks for basic experience with motorbikes or quads, which is why we'd ask first on any ATV day with a child.

## What children pay

Children aged 4 to 9 inclusive pay the child price, and under-fours travel free. Send the ages rather than 'two kids', because the age decides the price. The same bands across our other tours are on [what children pay on Phuket tours](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/child-prices-phuket-tours).

## A long day with a child: how it goes easier

Twelve hours is a lot for a five-year-old, so treat the van rides between stops as nap time. Bring swimwear for everyone, a towel, comfortable shoes for the jungle paths, sunscreen with a hat and sunglasses, mosquito repellent and a phone in a waterproof case. Pack a full change of clothes for the drive back after the springs.

If twelve hours sounds like too much, the [Phuket tours with kids](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/family-tours) page lists shorter days.

## Pickup, and the northern beaches

Hotel transfer is in the price. Kamala, Surin and Bang Tao count as far areas on this tour, and the card adds a surcharge for them. Guests staying in the north of the island either reach the lily café on their own or skip that stop. How pickup works from each beach is on [Phuket tours by where you stay](https://phukeo.com/en/guide/tours-by-area).

## What's included, and what's not

Included: hotel transfer, lunch, entrance to every stop on the programme, the elephant bath and the show, the viewpoint, the bamboo raft, the quads, the waterfall, the hot springs and pools, and medical insurance. Not included: drinks at lunch, personal spending and tips, and massages or spa treatments at the hot springs resort, which are optional. A romantic dinner on the beach can be added if you ask.

## Other jungle days with children

On the rafting and elephant spa day the minimum age for rafting is six, and you choose bathing or a ride at the elephants. The Khao Lak safari includes both. Which day bathes and which rides is set out on [does the rafting, elephant and ATV tour include elephant bathing](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/elephant-bathing-included), and the viewpoint stop on this day is compared with the morning trips on [Samet Nangshe at sunrise or in the afternoon](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/samet-nangshe-sunrise-or-afternoon).

Every tour in our catalogue runs with an English-speaking guide. Send the date, your hotel and everyone's ages in the chat. Payment is agreed there after we confirm, and ask about cancellation terms at the same time.

## Worth knowing

Ask about the quad bikes for your child's age before you pay. Everything else on the Avatar world day is open to all ages, according to our card.
