Phuket

7 Days · 8 Nights

Phuket is easy to do badly. This departure picks one west-coast base — Kamala, Surin, or Kata, depending on the group — and refuses to change hotel mid-week. There is one day on the water and one day in Old Phuket Town. The rest is the beach you came for.

Highlights

A single beach base for all eight nights
One island day, Phi Phi or Phang Nga, only if the sea is fit
Old Phuket Town, Sino-Portuguese streets, and a proper coffee stop
Promthep or a headland sunset that does not require a show ticket

Good to know

November is a shoulder month on the Andaman. Showers are part of the plan, which is why the island day has a land alternative.
Patong is not our default base. We will say so on the quote if a group specifically wants it.
Park and marine fees change. They are itemised, not folded into a vague “package”.

An indicative flow

How the days usually sit.

This is the rhythm we recommend. It is not a contract. Weather, opening hours, and your flights will move a day, and the final plan is written after we speak.

Arrival

Straight to the beach

Private transfer from Phuket Airport to the resort. No city tour on the way. The first evening is dinner and an early night.
Island day

Out only if the sea agrees

A speedboat or a longtail day toward Phi Phi or Phang Nga Bay. If the Andaman is rough, the day becomes a driver and the old town, not a miserable crossing.
Town day

Phuket’s older streets

Old Phuket Town on foot: shrines, shophouses, and lunch somewhere with a table rather than a queue. The Big Buddha is included only if the group asks.
The rest

Unscheduled on purpose

Four days with no excursion sold in advance. A cookery morning or a spa can be added once you are there. Departure is a morning transfer.
