Highlights

Phuket: We aim to please right from the get-go. This Beach Resort on Patong Beach will do just that with ocean views and tranquil vibes.

Phuket: Enjoy and learn about Thai flavours, yum!

Phuket: This morning we’ll be taking a sightseeing tour, led by a local guide, to get to know Phuket. We’ll ooo and ahh at the wonderful Wat Chalong temple (plus a few more spots to get fully oriented with this wonderful city).

Phuket: Welcome to the bright lights of Phuket. Grab yourself a beer, and check out the crazy nightlife, as this is the ultimate haven for party animals.

Phi Phi Islands: Kick back with your new Contiki fam at Koh Phi Phi Viewpoint – feeling like you’ve just won the lottery of life.

Krabi: Fill your plate with spicy Thai food, grab a Singha beer and admire the famous view with 20 of your new BFFs.

Krabi: Okay, so, there aren’t actually any tigers here, BUT this Buddhist temple has the advantage of being high up in lush green mountains and features stunning gold-covered towers and a cave with tiger paw prints (aww!!).

10-10 would do it again, no questions asked. For the price you cannot beat this tour. The hotels we stayed at were some of the best Contiki resorts I’ve ever had. And the FTAs were a blast and our guid was amazing. The party’s on the trip are a blast and occur nightly, but as always optional. Definitely get the bucket!!!

Everything was so easy from booking online to the documents and then to starting the trip on day one. Our trip manager Jess was so amazing! Taking us to all the places, tours and taking us to local food places that were all so amazing! I loved that I didn’t have to organise anything myself and I just had to show up. Highly recommend as a solo traveler as you can book everything through contiki and just focus on having fun. I had the most beautiful people in my group and we all did the free-time add on tours together and had a blast! If you’re thinking about it just do it!
