Thailand Island Hopping: Phuket, Koh Samui & Krabi
Tour Overview
Ready for a week of sun, sand, and island-hopping? This trip takes you across three of Thailand's most famous spots. We start in Phuket, where the energy is high and the beaches are wide. You'll spend your days on speedboats hitting up places like Maya Bay—yes, the one from the movies—and catching some sun on the Phi Phi islands.
Next, we head over to Koh Samui. It’s got a different feel, a bit more relaxed but with a serious party side if you're there for the Full Moon. We've included the boat transfers so you can hit the beach at Koh Phangan without worrying about how to get back. Finally, we land in Krabi. This place is all about the massive limestone cliffs sticking out of the water. You'll hop on a traditional long-tail boat to explore the Four Islands, where the water is clear and the sandbanks appear out of nowhere at low tide.
We've picked hotels that put you right in the middle of the action—close to the night markets, the local food stalls, and of course, the beach. It’s a straightforward, fun trip designed for people who want to see the best of the Thai coast without any fuss.

Phuket Arrival & Chill Time
Land in Phuket and we will have a driver waiting to take you straight to your hotel in Patong. Once you check in, the day is yours. You can walk down to Patong Beach, which is just 200 meters away, or grab some street food at the nearby markets. It is a lively area, so there is plenty to see and do right outside your door.
Phi Phi Islands by Speedboat
An early start to beat the crowds. We head to the marina for some coffee before zooming off to Maya Bay. You will get to swim in the Pileh Lagoon and see Monkey Beach. Lunch is served on the island, and you'll have plenty of time to snorkel in the clear water before heading back to the hotel.
