Thailand Tours in November 2026

I had Sea as my tour guide and she has been by far the best tour guide I have ever had!!!! I’ve been on multiple tours and she was so incredible and lovely, she made the trip so fun with her bright bubbly, funny and kind personality!! She made sure to include everyone and remember things about each person. She was so caring and went above and beyond even after we were done the tour, she helped us organize our transfers to our next destination and made sure we were safe every step of the way. On the tour she was so nice and got so many good photos for us and gave us so much information about Thailand and our itinerary. She was also an amazing friend that we met along the way, she helped when I wasn’t feeling well and got everyone medication when we needed it. She always brought amazing energy to our days and it was so nice to have her as a tour guide. I would love to have her for every tour if I could!!! Thank you so much Sea for everything you did.

Our guide Champ was brilliant. So attentive to the needs of the group, as well as providing so much information throughout the trip. A varied itinerary, with superb food all the way

Overall, the explore elements of the trip were great, the Elephant walking was wonderful and interesting (could write more but I don't want to give any spoilers) and the kayaking through the mangroves were highlights. Some of the optional trips were less good - mainly the bio luminescent trip. I wouldn't recommend this trip to people as it isn't what was advertised in the local trip notes. It was commercialised travel on a speed boat with only 30 minutes of snorkelling at one destination (we were told several sights of snorkelling) and the swim with the bio luminesence was good but that was only for 10 minutes. Additionally the organisation of the trip (after the explore guide had booked) was horrendous. We were on and off buses/taxis and no clue where we were heading. We did eventually get the right boat, but I wouldn't recommend this optional extra to others. We were lucky with the time of year we went and were able to experience a couple of night markets which are well worth visiting for the local food. Our guide Por, was kind and caring and ensured we got to the right pier at the right time. Some of the speed boat people are a little hap hazard with your luggage, so you will need a strong piece of luggage. Overall though, a great trip to see many islands, see the sun, sea and sand (though we did have a lot of thunder and rain through out the trip too). There is a good mix of activities and relax time though I think my favourite island was Koh Hai - the first island.

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!!!

A great all rounded trip. Our guide was v accommodating and happy to please. She gave us plenty of stops for snacks and coffee. She explained not all meals come at once in a group, nor starters. Food was good and cheap and well catered for vegetarians etc. Accommodation was good overall. Would have liked one less night in the jungle and an extra night at the Dolphin Bay resort to use the facilities. Great to have water provided at every hotel and a kettle. Lots of optional activities on this trip which add to the price but all v good. Expect some trips to be v busy in the touristy areas. Well recommended.

Great trip . The overnight train and the homestay wasn't something I'd normally do ,but it was an experience and added to the variety of the trip. Our guide was very helpful and his knowledge and passion for his country was first class. Highly recommend the trip but it is as described 'full on' so don't expect much time to relax .
