What are the most popular destinations to visit from Phuket?

From Phuket travelers can easily reach the Phi Phi Islands Phang Nga Bay Khao Sok National Park and Krabi. Day trips and multi-day tours regularly stop at James Bond Island Koh Yao Yai and various locations throughout Phang Nga Bay. For overnight stays the Thumrin Thana Hotel in Trang and Khaolak Laguna Resort provide comfortable bases. A TourRadar traveler noted "Phang Nga Bay's canoe trip through sea caves and mangroves was both peaceful and thrilling, and seeing the famous James Bond Island by my own eyes was a dream come true."

What's the best area to stay in when starting a tour from Phuket?

The beach areas of Patong Kata and Karon Beach serve as primary starting points for most Phuket tours. Luxury seekers often choose the Mandarava Resort and Spa in Karon Beach or Kata Sea Breeze Resort which puts beaches and entertainment within walking distance. Those seeking value accommodations find good options near Phuket Old Town. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The Nap Patong was perfectly located - close to everything but still peaceful and relaxing."

What's the typical duration of tours starting in Phuket?

Most Phuket-based tours run between 4 and 9 days with week-long itineraries being most common. The "Amazing Phuket Trip with Krabi" spans 7 days while the "Thai Island Hopping Adventure" extends to 9 days covering Khao Sok National Park Phi Phi Islands and Krabi. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "During my nine day stay, I got a taste of each of the main islands in southern Thailand - Phuket, Phi Phi, and Krabi."

What accommodation options are available for tours starting in Phuket?

Tours provide lodging across all comfort levels from 3 to 5 stars. Popular Phuket properties include Anona Beachfront Resort Rawai Palm Beach Resort and Avista Grande Phuket Karon. When in Krabi guests often stay at Sea Seeker Krabi Resort or Sofitel Krabi Phokeethra Golf & Spa Resort. Some specialty tours like Intrepid's "Sail Phuket to Ko Phi Phi" house guests on catamarans for a unique experience.

What's the best time of year to take a tour starting in Phuket?

November through March brings the most favorable conditions with dry weather and comfortable temperatures. January sees the highest number of bookings though tours operate throughout the year with adjusted routes during monsoon season from May to October. Water activities and island hopping work best from December through April when the Andaman Sea is at its calmest.

The 9-day Thailand Islands Exploration visits Phuket Phi Phi Islands and Krabi while the 6-day Andaman to Gulf route takes in six spots including Trang Phatthalung and Surat Thani.
