Magical Khao Sok National Park

After your first night of getting to know the gals we grab breakfast first thing as we are heading off to our first destination - Khao Sok National Park. Emerald green waters, floating bungalows and raft houses surrounded by limestone mountains and wildlife. We take a minivan and then a long-tail boat to our destination. Gals, this is THE bucket list moment. The scenery we get to fully immersive ourselves in by swimming, and kayaking, is honestly something else, it’s one of our fave places and we hope you love it just as much as we do. As the sun goes down, we will continue getting to know each other in this magical place, starting off the trip as we mean to go on ❤️

A Railay good time!

It’s a chilled morning with breakfast lake-front with the gals. Today we bid farewell to the jaw-dropping Khao Sok National Park and head to our next destination Krabi! We check into a beautiful resort located in Railay, and relax by the infinity pool surrounded by limestone mountains. Freshen up before hitting the beach. We’re sailing into the sunset as we have a magical kayak around Railay. We get to explore the hidden gem of Phra Nang Cave, an authentic Thai experience, known to bring good fortune and fertility from the legend that is Phra Nang sea princess goddess herself. As the sun goes down, we paddle back to the beach where a coconut or cocktails are calling our name.

Viewpoints and rock climbing baby!

It’s an early one this morning, we leave the hotel around 8 am and take a hike up to one of Thailand’s most famous viewpoints. The views are breathtaking, and the hike, maybe a little breathtaking too...But so worth it when you get to the top and a stunning photo op. This morning’s hike is optional if you fancy a lay-in! In the afternoon we head out rock climbing! Gals, this activity is so much fun, you get to climb the limestone cliffs and see the stunning sea from so high up! In the evening we hit up the best beach bars for a relax and chill.

We’re in Phi Phi BEACHES!

Next stop Phi Phi Island! Golden sandy beaches, pristine blue waters Phi Phi is heaven. We catch the boat across and once arriving, the afternoon is yours to do as you please. Chill on the beach, grab an acai bowl or relax at the hotel. There’s no better place to watch the sun go down than the famous Phi Phi viewpoint, so we head there for sunset. It really is one of the best sunsets we have ever seen - the skies are golden orange and candy floss purple. Pure perfection. Phi Phi’s nightlife is incredible, so if you want to experience the fun, head out with the gals, watch the wildfire show on the beach and party your flip-flops off.

Day 6

Island hopping Phi Phi!

This morning you wake up to the sounds of the waves, and get greeted by the fresh crisp sea air, enjoy the chill morning before we head off on our next adventure. It’s time for island hopping, so we jump on the speedboat and head off into the turquoise blue waters and take in the outstanding beauty surrounding us. We’re heading to Monkey Island, Viking Cave, and Pileh Lagoon. All three spots are so uniquely different but equally as spectacular. We then spend the afternoon snorkelling and swimming, followed by some delicious lunch onboard. As we watch the sun go down, we get to witness the water by night, where the plankton shines bright and lights up the sea. This trip is just full of neverending memorable moments like this.

Today we sadly say goodbye to Phi Phi, and catch the ferry and a minivan back to Phuket. The largest of the Thai islands! The afternoon is free to chill and do whatever you fancy! From action to relaxation, Phuket’s got it all, your gals who guide can point you in the right direction for any afternoon activities you want to tick off that bucket list.

An El of a good time!

Today is our last full day together and so incredibly special. We get to head to the local elephant sanctuary to visit Thailand’s national animal. We get up close with these friendly giants and learn how they are rehabilitated and cared for day to day. Animal welfare is extremely important to us at gals who travel, and the elephants here are free to roam and are not here for the entertainment of tourists. We educate ourselves and use this opportunity to distribute funds to programmes that do good. We arrive back early afternoon and have a few hours to get ready for our final evening altogether as gals. We head to one of Phuket’s most famous spots for sunset in Promthep Cape and have a delicious dinner on the beach and reflect on the most incredible trip we have alll experienced together.

It’s time for checkout, so make sure you are all packed up and ready to go. Have a chilled morning and lap up the last few hours with your new besties, as you have just shared the most incredible journey of building once-in-a-lifetime memories. Your gals who guide will be able to help you with any onward travel, whether it be on to another gals who travel trip, a solo adventure or just heading home.

Taro was was an amazing guide
Taro was so so lovely and welcoming. We had some delays with our plane and Taro helped out so that we didn't have to worry. He gave so many recommendations and sent lovely helpful messages everyday. He always helped with restaurant recommendations and explained each dish. He was great fun and it was lovely to learn about him and his country. He made sure that we always arrived with time to get snacks, go to the toilet etc. and always communicated these times with us so that we knew how much free time we had and when we needed to get ready to leave. He has organised my further travel to th...

9 day Thailand Paradise
I went on the 9 day Thailand paradise that started 02/22/25. The tour went through Phuket, Khao Sok, Railay Beach and Phi Phi. This tour was packed with adventure while still allowing time for relaxing and free time. While the itinerary was fantastic and the experience was amazing. Sea, the tour guide, really made the trip fantastic. She created a fun, safe, united environment which allowed all the girls on this trip to bond and explore a new culture and country. She went above and beyond in every aspect and became a friend, not just a tour guide, by the end of the trip. Overall, it was a 10/1...
