Thailand splits cleanly into two trips — Bangkok and the temples, then the Andaman coast and the islands. This itinerary gives you both in one week without feeling rushed: two nights in Bangkok, then a short internal flight south to the beaches, with island-hopping built into the second half.
The Phi Phi Islands day trip is by private speedboat, not a shared tourist boat — you arrive at Maya Bay and Bamboo Island earlier, spend longer at each stop, and skip the crowd-packed lunch barges. Krabi is your base for the last two nights, giving you the Railay Beach sunset and the Four Islands tour on a shared longtail boat.

What our clients love about us.
"From the first interaction through a friend referral the service was excellent. Mike was wonderful and timely from airport pick up to drop off. The office staff were great. The tour planning and guidance came handy. Everyone I interacted with was very professional."
"This is an excellent guide and car service which we used in Nairobi and also on an overnight trip to the Homa Peninsula. They came highly recommended by an NGO that works in Kenya and we are glad we hired them. Mike was an exceptional driver on many different road conditions! We travelled in a comfortable Land Cruiser Prado to rural dirt paths and crazy urban traffic jams. He also was very knowledgable. It was reasonably priced and very flexible with our changing schedule."
