Global pub crawl to tour Phuket
PHUKET: A group of fun-seeking Australians will be quenching their thirst on the island next year as part of the first Round-the-World Pub Crawl organized by Australian tour company Thirsty Swagman.
The group of 25 drinking travelers will enjoy a month-long party, traveling “Around the World in 60 Pubs”, starting from London on March 24, 2008.
They will be draining the kegs in more than 60 pubs and bars across four continents over 25 days in 11 worldwide destinations, including Munich, Prague, Reykjavik, Dusseldorf, Austria, Australia, New Zealand, Honolulu and Cancun.
Phuket was the only Thailand crawl-stop location selected by the group due to its “reputation for nightlife and choice of pubs and bars with live music”, said Karen Logan, Media and Online Manager at Thirsty Swagman.
The globe-trotting pub crawlers pay AUS$11,900 for what Thirsty Swagman founder Kenneth Hart hails as, “the ultimate adventure to the finest nightlife destinations on earth, without any boring sightseeing or early wake-ups”.
The fee includes flights from London, three-star accommodation with breakfast, all land-based transportation, entry to pubs and bars with discount drinks at some, video production and, of course, the obligatory T-shirt and certificate.
“Those who embark on this journey will have a story to tell for life. Nothing even close to this has ever been done before, anywhere or anytime. Every place we visit offers something totally unique, and no two pubs will ever be the same,” said Mr Hart.
“From the longest bar on earth in Germany to live music pubs in Thailand, every night is action packed,” he added.
Bookings for the round-the-world pub tour are still available and will be finalized by December 31. The group is limited to 25 participants. For more information visit www.worldsbiggestpubcrawl.com
