Thai Island Hopper West (8 Days)

Good morning, adventurers! It's your first full day, so let’s get ready to dive in. You can explore Phuket Town and appreciate its charming Chinese-influenced architecture. Whether you prefer to swing into action or take it easy, the choice is yours. Tonight, you might want to ramp things up with the vibrant lights and lively atmosphere of Bangla Road!

It’s day three, and the group vibe is all about 'mai pen rai – don’t worry, be happy.' Start your day with a leisurely breakfast and soak up some sun before we set sail on the Andaman Sea to find a certain famous beach. Arriving in Koh Phi Phi will leave you enchanted and joyful. More picturesque than you could ever imagine, this island will be your home for the next few days. Enjoy glorious days filled with sunshine, warm evenings, and endless opportunities for ocean adventures. Savor the herb-infused rice salad known as khao yam, catch the sunset from the highest point on Koh Phi Phi, or wander along beautiful beaches where playful monkeys might greet you. It’s an evening you’ll definitely remember!

The island is your playground, and today is yours to spend however you wish. We suggest our Day on the Bay Free Time Add-On, offering a fantastic combination of island hopping, swimming, and relaxation. Later, enjoy one final beachside walk as the twinkling lights of the island create a magical backdrop, while you soak in the sounds of the surroundings and the delicious aroma of Pad Thai. This is what we refer to as truly living!

Even though we’re departing from Ko Phi Phi and making our way to mainland Thailand today, our adventurous spirit remains as vibrant as ever. The alluring paradise of Krabi awaits us, and we can’t say no to that! This afternoon, we’ll immerse ourselves in the laid-back atmosphere of Ao Nang, where welcoming locals, cozy massage spots, local markets, and refreshing cocktails by the sea will enhance our day like kaffir lime in a mojito.

Returning to the Thai mainland, we’ll soak in the stunning island views from the delightful locale of Krabi. Today, you have the option to embark on a speedboat cruise through Phang Nga Bay, where you can visit the iconic James Bond Island. After a day filled with adventure, treat yourself to local markets, affordable massages, and refreshing sunset cocktails as a perfect reward.

Wake up and get ready, because today is yours to fully enjoy all that Krabi has in store! You might want to explore the impressive rainforest-covered boulders of Phi Phi, relax on the stunning Railay Beach, or try out the optional rock climbing adventure. As tonight marks our final evening together as a Contiki group, why not plan a team dinner for one last night of fun and memories?

After a last beautiful morning in paradise, it's time to board the coach back to Phuket, signaling the end of our adventure. Enjoy those final moments with your travel companions before we transfer you either to the airport or back to our starting hotel.
