Phuket Tours & Trips 2022/2023

01 How many days are enough for Phuket?

As you can expect, there is no easy answer because everyone has different lengths of annual leaves, different budgets or live at different distances. If you live far away from Phuket, it is better to stay longer, mainly to recover from jet lag.

We conducted a few surveys based on visitors past experiences, and the verdict was interesting. A good summary of how long people stayed in Phuket is as follow:

The minimum stay in Phuket is usually 4 days.

We recommend between 10 days to 2 weeks for a great holiday in Phuket.

02 Where to go after Phuket?

If you have a few extra days to spare while you're in Thailand, or are living here and looking for an interesting place to go for 2–3 days, consider one of these great side trips from Phuket.

04 Where should I stay in Phuket for the first time?

The most popular section of the island, Patong offers the widest selection of places to eat, drink, shop, and stay, but some visitors are solely attracted by the rowdy (and, often, sleazy) nightlife. Closer to the airport is the expansive and more recently developed region of Bang Tao, where many of the upmarket resorts face a lovely stretch of uncrowded beach, while other hotels are clustered around isolated manmade lakes.

Not far south of Bang Tao, Kamala is delightfully low-key, somehow retaining the feel of a fishing village. Close to Patong but far quieter and less congested, Karon does lack character, though the range of resorts is impressive and many are wonderful for families. Just down the coast from Karon are the enchanting and serene coves of powdery-white sand called Kata Yai and Kata Noi. Easy to miss between Kamala and Bang Tao, Surin is a petite cove that is becoming increasingly developed, yet maintains an intimacy and charm rarely seen elsewhere.

05 How do I get there?

There are many ways you can choose to arrive.By Flight,The Phuket International Airport is the second busiest airport of Thailand after the Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok. There are two terminals in the airport; Terminal 1 is used for international flights while Terminal 2 is used for domestic flights. Well connected to Bangkok,Chiangmai,and other international cities.
