I just completed the 12 day Thai Intro tour with Intro Travel. Highly recommend for first-time solo travellers or travellers (like me) who have limited time to explore a country. The tour was perfectly paced - saw loads without it feeling too overloaded. Rest days were well timed, and really felt like I was getting good value for money. There was nothing I didn’t enjoy! All the accommodations were basic but clean - no issues at all. Remember to bring your own shampoo/shower gel as these are not provided at all locations! Age range was on the younger side. I am 24. I still had loads of fun but did feel slightly older than the majority. However, it was fun to be around people of different ages to me!! One thing I would raise is that all Thai intro tours are grouped together, so you will be in a mixed group of 9/12/18/dive travellers. I don’t think this is super clear on the website. This wasn’t a huge problem for me, but it was a shame to lose people at day 9, and then to leave everyone at day 12 while the rest of the group continues. Just would have been good to know explicitly ahead of the trip! Finally I have to sing the praises of Emma P, our group leader. She really went above and beyond for our group from the moment she met me at the hotel on Day 1. She was such a positive energy, bringing the vibes without fail every single day! She made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire trip. I wanted to feel like I was properly on holiday and not have to plan/think about anything (other than what I eat that evening!!!) and Emma made that happen for me! Anyone who has her as a leader - you are in safe (and super fun) hands and you’re going to have a fantastic time!

Tour was amazing with the accommodation and experiences that were planned. But what really made this tour exceptional was my group leader, Sky. Sky made Thailand so special for me, and I was so lucky to have her as my leader. She not only planned everything with extreme care, but she was also there for every individual on the tour. She made sure no one felt left out and that everyone was having a good time.
Thai Intro 18 Day - M

We had such a great time on our Thailand Islander In 9 Days tour. Once we figured out that WhatsApp is the way to communicate, our guide Long Pham was so responsive and answered all of our pre-trip questions. We had to change flights and had some missed connections delaying our trip. Long Pham did a great job accommodating our changes, making sure our transport was there and even changing a scheduled tour day so we wouldn't miss out on all the fun! We were so happy with the ease of all the transfers, the hotel accommodations, and the arranged activities. It was truly the trip of a lifetime. I would highly recommend and will be using them for future travel plans.

- Summer 2026
Summer tours make the most of water activities and early starts to avoid peak heat. The private tours around Phuket and Krabi let you time things just right - many guests start with sunrise snorkeling at Phi Phi Islands, then switch to shaded mangrove kayaking in Phang Nga Bay when the sun's high. Our group island-hopping tours mix in plenty of swim stops and beach time; people really enjoy the boat rides out to Koh Tao for diving and also Koh Phangan for the beach parties. More active options combine Muay Thai training with jungle walks in Khao Sok, while cultural tours include sharing home-cooked meals with families in small villages. Our travelers tell us they like having scheduled activities but also free time to explore or relax by the pool during the warm months.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn tours in South Thailand deliver a perfect mix of beach time and cultural experiences once the peak crowds fade away. Most of our top-rated trips begin with temple visits and cooking workshops in Bangkok, then venture south to discover the islands. Travelers especially love staying in floating bungalows at Khao Sok National Park, where morning mist, jungle calls and towering limestone cliffs create an unforgettable September atmosphere. Island hopping in the Andaman Sea works beautifully this season - early boats take you to Phi Phi for snorkeling and coral spotting, while afternoons are ideal for gliding through Phang Nga Bay's shaded mangroves by kayak. Small groups share sunrise hikes, learn Muay Thai basics, connect with village families through homestays and cooking and also discover hidden beaches away from the usual spots. Couples and families booking private tours can set their own rhythm around Phuket and Krabi, while solo visitors naturally find companionship during floating resort stays, shared meals and beach barbecues. These autumn departures stand out for balancing active exploration with cultural immersion, plus you'll find better room rates and more peaceful moments at secluded spots like Bottle Beach and Koh Tao's quiet coves.

- Winter 2026 / 2027
The island-hopping tours in Southern Thailand work especially well during winter. Our guests love starting in Bangkok with temple visits and cooking classes before heading south to explore the islands. You'll stay in some really special spots - from floating bungalows on Cheow Lan Lake to tree houses tucked away in Khao Sok National Park. The private tours let you set your own pace around Phuket and Phi Phi Islands, with time for canoeing through hidden caves and snorkeling in quiet bays. December through February tours fill up fast, particularly those that stop at Bottle Beach on Koh Phangan and the quieter parts of Koh Tao. The feedback we get constantly mentions how much people enjoy discovering less-visited places like the viewpoints above Phi Phi and also the night markets in Krabi.

- Spring 2027
Spring tours through Southern Thailand focus heavily on water activities and cultural experiences during the more temperate months. Our travelers appreciate the comfortable temperatures for kayaking through hidden caves near Phuket, swimming in crystal waters near Koh Tao, and also exploring the limestone formations of Phang Nga Bay. Private tours work well this time of year, giving couples and families flexibility to adjust their pace between temple visits in Bangkok and beach time on Phi Phi Islands. Group tours attract solo travelers who connect quickly over shared experiences like staying in floating bungalows at Khao Sok National Park, taking Muay Thai classes and also learning recipes in local cooking sessions. The sailing tours on luxury catamarans visit spots like James Bond Island with perfect timing, when crowds are minimal. What our customers love most is how these tours combine cultural connections through homestays, visits to local markets and also tranquil moments paddleboarding around secluded bays.
