Andaman to Gulf, Small Group Tour

Phuket → Surat Thani 6 days Up to 8

About this trip

Six days across southern Thailand, moving between the Andaman coast and the Gulf side, taking in beaches, forest, and a different pace of life from the north. Small group of up to 8, so it stays personal.

You'll get a proper mix of nature and culture — waterfalls and cave canoeing one day, an old temple and wild orchids the next, then time on the islands and turquoise water the south is known for.

It's a good fit if you want beaches alongside some genuine activity and local culture, rather than just lying on sand for a week.

What you'll do

  • Walk to waterfalls in Khao Phanom Bencha National Park
  • Canoe through the Tham Le Khao Kob cave
  • Visit Wat Phra Mahathat, one of Thailand's oldest Buddhist temples
  • Spot wild orchids and lotus flowers in the forest
  • Explore islands and beaches along the Andaman coast
Good to know
  • Small group capped at 8 people
  • Mixes activity days (canoeing, hiking) with beach time, so it's not a pure lie-on-the-sand trip
