Thailand Tropical Nature & Beach Holiday 10 days

Arrive in Bangkok, where you’ll be met by your guide and transferred to your hotel in the city centre.

After check-in, the rest of the day is yours. You might like to head out for a wander, grab a bite nearby, or just take it easy after the flight.

Morning

Start the day with breakfast before heading out to explore some of Bangkok’s best-known temples.

First up is Wat Traimit, home to the world’s largest solid gold Buddha. From there, take a walk through some of the older parts of the city before visiting Wat Pho, known for its massive reclining Buddha.

Continue on to the Grand Palace, one of Bangkok’s top sights. Take your time exploring the complex, including Wat Phra Kaew, where the Emerald Buddha is housed.

Stop for lunch at a local restaurant before heading into the afternoon.

Afternoon

In the afternoon, head out onto the water for a long-tail boat ride through the canals on the Thonburi side of the city. It’s a great way to see a quieter side of Bangkok and get a glimpse of local life along the waterways.

You’ll also stop at Wat Arun, one of the city’s most recognisable temples, set along the Chao Phraya River. Take some time to look around and enjoy the views before heading back.

Morning

Start the day with breakfast before transferring to the airport for your flight to Surat Thani.

On arrival, you’ll be picked up and make your way to your accommodation. Check in and take a bit of time to settle in.

Afternoon

In the afternoon, head out for a half-day guided hike in Khao Sok National Park.

Known for its lush rainforest and diverse wildlife, it’s a great spot to get out into nature. As you walk through the forest, you’ll leave the busy city behind and take in the quieter surroundings, with plenty to see along the way.

Morning

After breakfast, head out on a shared tour to Cheow Lan Lake (also known as Ratchaprapha Dam), one of the standout spots in Khao Sok National Park. Take in the scenery - calm water surrounded by limestone cliffs and dense rainforest.

You’ll spend time at a floating raft house, where you can go for a swim, relax by the water, or hire a kayak and explore a bit further if you’re keen.

There’s also the option to head out on a short walk along nearby trails to see more of the area, including hidden spots like small waterfalls or caves.

After a relaxed day on the lake, return to your hotel.

Morning

This morning is free for you to enjoy at your own pace. You might like to relax at the resort or join one of the optional activities available (extra cost), such as rafting, canoeing, cycling, or a cooking class.

Check out around 11:00, then transfer to Krabi pier to catch the ferry to Phi Phi Island.

Afternoon

On arrival at Tonsai Pier, make your way to your hotel. It’s a short walk from the pier, so you can settle in and relax once you arrive. If your hotel is further away, local transport is available at your own expense.

The rest of the day is yours to unwind and enjoy the island.

Enjoy these days at your own pace on Phi Phi Island.

You might like to spend your time relaxing on the beach, going for a swim, or heading out to explore more of the island and its local spots. It’s a great chance to slow things down and enjoy the laid-back island vibe.

If you’re keen to get out on the water, there’s also an optional Phi Phi Island by Speedboat Full day tour to explore nearby islands, including Phi Phi Don and Phi Phi Leh - well worth it for the scenery (additional charge).

After breakfast, make your way to the pier for your ferry over to Phuket.

Once you arrive, check in and enjoy the rest of the day at your own pace. You might like to head out and explore, grab a bite, or just take it easy and enjoy the beach.

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel before checking out.

At the arranged time, meet your driver and transfer to the airport for your onward flight.
