Thailand is magic! With turquoise waters that don't look real, floating bungalows surrounded by limestone mountains, island-hopping days, and some of the best food in the world. Honestly? Thailand ticks SO many boxes and it is a perfect choice for a girls' trip!
When we created the Gals Who Thailand Paradise 9-Day Tour, we wanted to show you the absolute perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, culture, nature and that special feeling of connecting with an incredible group of girls. Whether you're thinking about joining us or you're planning your own route, this itinerary will show you exactly how to make the most of your Thailand adventure!
Phuket is the perfect place to start! You'll arrive jet-lagged but ready to explore. Your Gals Who Crew will be waiting at Phuket International Airport, ready to pick you up! No need to worry about getting to the first hotel, we've got that sorted too!
The first day is always about settling in, catching up on sleep, topping up your tan and finding your feet in a new exciting country! Check into the gorgeous hotel, freshen up, and ease into island life. In the evening we will have our welcome meal, you'll meet your group of girls (most are solo travellers like you), and of course you'll get to you know your amazing Gals Who Guide! Your guide will make sure everyone feels at home.
Next, we're heading to Khao Sok National Park, one of Thailand's most amazing spots. We're talking emerald-green waters, limestone mountains, and floating bungalows, yes, they are just as amazing as they sound!
We'll jump in a minivan through lush Thai countryside, and then a long-tail boat to arrive at this amazing place. The floating raft accommodation is surrounded by wildlife and towering cliffs. Grab a cocktail, walk out onto the wooden deck, and literally step into crystal-clear water. This is what dreams are made of!
Today we are saying goodbye to Khao Sok! It's time to explore Ao Nang. We'll arrive here in the early afternoon and we'll freshen up before hitting the beach. We’re kayaking into the sunset surrounded by natural beauty. As the sun goes down, we paddle back to the beach where a coconut or cocktails are calling our name.
Today is for the adrenaline junkies! We're taking a day trip over to the famous Railay Beach and going rock climbing on Railay's famous limestone cliffs. We'll spend the rest of the day chilling on Railay Beach, grabbing lunch at a super cute beachfront spot, and soaking up those rays. This evening, we've got the perfect beach bar to visit, we're talking great views, great vibes and of course great company!
We're hopping on a boat to Phi Phi, and the moment we arrive, you'll understand why everyone's obsessed. Check into our hotel, then head straight to the famous Phi Phi Viewpoint for sunset. The views of the twin bays are one of the most amazing things you will ever see! We'll get an early night because tomorrow we are off on a marine adventure!
It's finally time to island hop the day away! Picture this: you're jumping on a speedboat heading to Monkey Island, Viking Cave, and Pileh Lagoon, you're snorkelling in turquoise waters, swimming in hidden lagoons, and soaking in all the rays. We'll have a stunning and super fresh lunch on board and as the sun goes down, the water lights up with bioluminescent plankton - it's like swimming in stars.
When we arrive back in Phuket, your Gals Who Guide will have all the suggestions for exploring this cool Thailand hotspot. We also need to tick off a key Thailand moment, a massage! This is the perfect activity to add to our final few days in Thailand. We've also got another bucket list moment for the penultimate day too: we're going to see elephants! We'll head to the Elephant Sanctuary to meet Thailand's national animal. Don't worry, this isn't a tourist trap. Animal welfare is so important to Gals Who Travel. We visit a Sanctuary where the elephants are free to roam, properly cared for, and the primary focus of the visit is for us to learn about the elephants' rehabilitation here while supporting important conservation work.
For our final evening as a group, we'll visit a Gals Who favourite and one of Phuket’s most famous spots for sunset in Promthep Cape. We'll have one final delicious dinner on the beach and reflect on the most incredible trip we have all experienced together. As always with a Gals Who farewell, there will definitely be tears (the happy kind), but mostly there's this feeling of pride, you did this, you stepped outside your comfort zone, and you have made new friends for life!
1. Safety First: You're never alone. Your professional, trained guide is with you every step, plus you've got your crew of girls around you. For first-time solo travellers aged 19-25, this changes everything.
2. The Perfect Pace: You're not rushing through spots or getting burnt out. You're spending real time in each location, actually connecting with places instead of just ticking boxes.
3. Adventure & Relaxation: One day you're rock climbing and island hopping, the next you're getting a Thai spa massage and floating on emerald lakes. It's balanced.
4. Culture & Nightlife: You're meeting local communities, learning about Thailand, visiting sanctuaries... but you're also partying on Phi Phi and experiencing the buzzing nightlife. It's the full experience.
5. Community: This is the whole point. Gals Who Travel is about finding your people. Most girls on these trips are solo travellers navigating the world alone, and with that comes an instant understanding and bond that forms.
- When to Go: Thailand is amazing year-round, but Nov-Feb is peak season (dry, warm). May-Oct is the rainy season, but there will be fewer crowds!
- What to Pack: Swimwear (obvs), sun cream, comfy walking shoes, a nice outfit for dinners, light layers. Thailand is hot and humid - think minimal, packable stuff.
- Flights: You're flying in and out of Phuket International Airport. The tour includes airport pickup, so literally just arrive and your guide is there.
