Today on Travels with the Russells, we arrive in Phuket, Thailand aboard the Celebrity Millennium and take the tender ashore for a relaxed and easy-going day exploring a resort area and Patong Beach 🌴 Phuket is one of Thailand’s best-known cruise destinations, famous for its tropical scenery, lively beach towns and beautiful coastline. As Phuket is a tender port, we show what it’s really like getting ashore independently and enjoying the island at a slower, more comfortable pace. Rather than racing off on a busy excursion, we prefer to walk, observe and take in the views, and today is all about that relaxed style of cruising. We enjoy a gentle stroll around the resort surroundings before heading to Patong Beach, one of Phuket’s most famous beaches. While Patong is known for its energy and buzz, it’s also a great place for simply watching the world go by, enjoying the sea views and soaking up the atmosphere — without needing to lie on the sand. This is a senior-friendly cruise port day, perfect if you enjoy seeing beaches rather than sunbathing on them. We take our time, enjoy the scenery, and show how Phuket can be enjoyed comfortably and independently, even if you don’t fancy long walks or organised tours. 🚢 In this vlog you’ll see: • Tendering ashore in Phuket from Celebrity Millennium • What to expect at a Phuket tender port • Resort area surroundings and coastal views • A gentle stroll along Patong Beach • A relaxed DIY cruise day in Thailand • Why Phuket works well for slower-paced travellers If you’re cruising to Thailand, planning a stop in Phuket, or wondering whether Patong Beach is worth visiting on a cruise, we hope this gives you a realistic look at what the day can be like. ❤️ If you enjoy relaxed cruise vlogs, honest port days and travel at a sensible pace, please like, subscribe and comment — it really helps the channel. 👉 Join our friendly Facebook community here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/372710791279047/ Thanks for watching and cruising along with us 🌍 #PhuketThailand #PatongBeach #PhuketCruise #CelebrityMillennium #CelebrityCruises #ThailandCruise #CruiseVlog #CruiseLife #CruisePortDay #PhuketResort #AsiaCruise #TenderPort #CruiseWalkingTour #SeniorTravel #Over60Travel #SlowTravel #CruiseCouple #UKCruisers #TravelVlog #TravelsWithTheRussells
