What people love about Southern Thailand Tours
- Thai Intro 18 Day
Jess was a phenomenal tour leader. She was always available to answer any questions, and/ or research answers to the ones she did not know. She made herself a part of the group enough that we all felt comfortable. Could not imagine having had another tour leader.
- Thai Intro 18 Day
Thai Intro was awesome!! Great overview of Thailand and everything is sorted so you don't have to worry and can just focus on taking it all in. Great way to meet people for onward travel too. Highly recommended!!
I did 18 day thai intro after hearing from others that had been on the 9 day one before and loved it. Even after hearing from my mates it was far better than I could have ever expected. Just a good mixture of activities from wild nights out to zip lining and bathing elephants. The digs you get are spot on, just basic but for all the time you are in your room theyre perfect, all had a/c and were clean. Going on this tour I done things I wouldnt have done if i went myself like a thai cooking class which was a great laugh. The tour makes it so easy travelling and you dont have to carry your bags for any length of time which is a huge bonus. The leaders, Adam and Jack, were bang on aswell. They were a great laugh and made your life so easy! They are also a great with help for your onwards travel after the tour helping us with booking planes and buses everywhere. Overall cant recommend doing the 18 day tour enough! Get yerself booked up!

"The trip was an unforgettable experience for my son. Tour guide Biggy was very helpful and super friendly! Unfortunately, the other participants in the group told us that they all paid almost half the price we paid for the tour. That makes us very thoughtful. ????

Discover Southern Thailand tours for every budget
Southern Thailand's budget tours hit the sweet spot at 11-16 days, giving you real Thai experiences without breaking the bank. Starting in Bangkok, you'll weave through local canals on long-tail boats and visit temples before heading south. Our travelers can't stop talking about Khao Sok National Park's floating raft houses - there's something special about drifting off to sleep with jungle sounds and waking up to limestone cliffs. The tour mixes island time across Koh Phi Phi, Koh Phangan and also Koh Tao where you'll swim, snorkel and spot sea life. What makes these tours work is how they blend culture, beach relaxation and hands-on activities like Muay Thai classes and jungle walks.
The Andaman Sea sailing tours really shine for luxury travelers. You'll get a beautiful catamaran with your own chef cooking fresh Thai dishes right on board. Our captains know all the hidden spots - they'll take you to caves and beaches the big boats miss, and time visits to popular places like James Bond Island when the crowds are gone. These 6-7 day trips come with kayaks, paddleboards and snorkeling gear for whenever you feel like exploring. The small groups mean you can either join activities or just relax on deck watching the islands go by. You'll get plenty of time to discover quiet corners of Phang Nga Bay and the Phi Phi Islands that most visitors never see.

Demographics
Island-hopping through Southern Thailand works really well if you're traveling solo - our groups click fast, especially during those shared moments in floating bungalows at Khao Sok National Park and camping nights on Bottle Beach. The tour starts smoothly with airport pickup in Bangkok, where guides introduce you to proper Thai street food and local hangouts along Khao San Road. Days fill up naturally with swims in clear waters, proper Muay Thai training, hands-on cooking classes and also cave explorations by canoe. What makes this perfect for solo trips is how it balances group time with personal space, plus you won't have to figure out those tricky ferry schedules between islands.
Our private island tours hit that sweet spot for couples who want both quiet moments and exploration. You'll cruise through Phang Nga Bay from Phuket on quality boats, finding hidden caves and peaceful lagoons perfect for private swims and snorkeling. We've picked all the hotels carefully - you get beachfront bungalows and smaller boutique places with proper sea views. Having your own guide means you can take your time canoeing through mangroves, hiking up to Phi Phi's viewpoints and also wandering Krabi's night markets. The real plus is how you can shape each day - stretch out beach time, linger in places you love or skip anything that doesn't catch your interest.
Our guided group tours really connect with young adults because they mix social vibes with proper experiences. You'll stay in cool spots like jungle treehouses and beachfront hostels on Koh Phangan where meeting people just happens naturally. Each day blends active stuff with local culture - think hidden bay snorkeling, real Muay Thai training, proper cooking sessions and also nights out at Phi Phi's beach bars. Everyone loves taking that overnight train south from Bangkok, staying in floating bungalows at Khao Sok and joining beach parties on Koh Phangan. The guides know exactly where to take you, whether it's quiet swimming spots, sunset views or real local food markets.
