ERROR: At the start and end of this video, I say that the Carnival Magic amusement park is in BANGKOK. That's WRONG! It's in PHUKET, Thailand. I'm sorry for the error. There is no Carnival Magic in Bangkok. I should have known better since I filmed all the footage in this video!
Phuket is a 12-hour drive or 75-minute flight from Bangkok.
In mid-November 2024, hear me speak at the Extraordinary Travel Festival in Bangkok, Thailand!

History and Development
- Envisioned in 2003 by the parent company Phuket FantaSea, with the aim to create a fantasyland celebrating Thai culture and traditions.[3]
