Thai Island Hopping West | 2026/2027

8 days of exotic lands and those much hyped perfect Thai beaches sit ahead of us. The high-on-life vibes will be inevitable as we join forces in Phuket. We'll start getting acquainted after our 6pm kickstart and allow ourselves to start slipping into island time. The bright lights and wild antics of Bangla Road can take things up a notch this evening!

Well good morning explorers, it's your first full day so time to get movin' and shakin'. Choose to spend some of the day with rescued elephants at the Phuket Elephant Sanctuary or if you'd rather, take to Phuket Town and admire the Chinese influenced local architecture - swing high or lay low, the choice is entirely yours. Then, with a free evening ahead, why not treat yourself to a relaxing massage, dive into the buzzing street food markets, or stock up on any last-minute essentials before we set our sights on Phi Phi tomorrow.

It’s an early start today, so grab a quick breakfast before we set off for the Andaman Sea in search of one very famous beach. Next on the agenda: turquoise waters, island scenery and the journey to one of Thailand’s most iconic destinations. Arriving in Koh Phi Phi feels like stepping into a postcard. Surrounded by towering limestone cliffs and bright blue waters, this island paradise is home for the next few days. Spend your time exploring the coastline, sampling local favourites like khao yam, or simply soaking up the atmosphere. Then, as evening rolls in, we'll head out for a sunset hike to Koh Phi Phi’s highest vantage point. With sweeping island views and golden-hour colours, it’s a moment you won’t forget.

The island is your playground and the day is yours to do whatever your heart desires. We're recommending our Day on the Bay Free Time Add-On - the perfect mix of island hopping, swimming and chillaxing. Afterwards, squeeze in one last beachside stroll with the flickering island lights as your backdrop, soaking up the island sounds and Pad Thai smells... this is what we call living.

Although we're leaving Koh Phi Phi and heading to mainland Thailand today, our sun-kissed spirit won't change a bit. Enjoy a slow morning on the island before we jump on a ferry to the exotic paradise of Krabi. After checking into our hotel in Ao Nang we'll get the evening started. Tonight, join an optional Krabi food tour and taste your way through the region’s best bites, from street food favourites to local hidden hangouts. Foodies, this one’s for you.

Back on the Thai mainland we'll take in the island vistas from the charming setting of Krabi. Today you can opt for a speed boat cruise of Phang Nga Bay to see the famous James Bond Island. Local markets, cheap massages & sunset cocktails can reward us from our adventurous day out.

Rise and shine, you have a full free day to make the most of everything Krabi has to offer! Maybe chillax on Railay beach or explore at your own leisure. Tonight, you're free to grab your crew for an included Thai dinner and end the trip in style.

After one final morning in paradise we'll head back to Phuket where our adventure comes to an end. Have one final goodbye with your travel fam, then take our transfer directly to the airport or you can opt to return to our start hotel.
