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.

PHUKET, LET’S GO

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. We’ve got a big day tomorrow, so take some time to recharge and relax with a spa treatment or massage, the perfect addition to a jam-packed past few days.

Day 8

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.

9 Day Thailand Paradise Tour
I have just returned from TruTravels’ 9 day Thailand Paradise tour, led by the lovely Biggy, and I can honestly say it was one of the most incredible, fulfilling, and unforgettable experiences of my life! Biggy was a faultless tour guide: friendly, fun, professional, informative and now a good friend to all of us on the tour! The trip was perfectly planned, stress-free, and showcased the best of Thailand! Highly recommend!

Thailand Paradise
A once-in-a-lifetime experience! The tour is packed full of activities and transport to beautiful places, which is probably very stressful to organise and to get everyone in the right place at the right time. Our tour leader, Biggy, made it look easy. He was always relaxed, friendly and approachable and made sure the trip ran smoothly. I felt like I was safe and looked after 100% of the time, which meant I could focus on enjoying the trip to the fullest and exploring beautiful Thailand! Made friends with some incredible girls and have memories to cherish forever!

Biggy was the best tour guide!
! Made the whole trip seamless from start to finish. Was so helpful every step of the way-looked after us and made sure we had plenty of time for photos etc!! We would have been lost without him! The trip was with the best girls and made memories we won’t forget!! Trip of a lifetime 💕x

I travelled on the Gals Who Travel trip with Biggy as our tour guide. Biggy was a superstar and we honestly would have been lost without him. He was a constant support for us all and kept us relaxed throughout the whole trip. Nothing was too much of an inconvenience for him and he was so so sweet looking after the people who fell ill checking in with them and giving them advice on how to deal with the humidity and heat. I am not a photograph person but am going home with a host of photos, both solo and group, as Biggy insisted on taking some spectacular photos of everyone so we all had memori...

What an experience
! Pushed me out of my comfort zone from the second I got on the plane! Lucky to have a group of girls who made everyone feel comfortable and included! Biggy was also an amazing tour guide. Never once felt unsafe and he got us from A to B so smoothly with no hiccups! He was there in a heartbeat when anyone needed him and made sure we got the most out of every single experience! Trip of a lifetime 💕

A stress free trip of a life time…
A stress free trip of a life time thanks to our tour guide Biggy! Biggy was amazing at showing us around Thailand, being a brilliant translator, nurse, and friend. Really appreciated all the information and recommendations from new fruits to try to which bar to head to.

Amazing

If you’re thinking about it, just book it :)
This was such a great experience for girls who want to travel but don’t have any friends to go with. Im leaving with some great friends who I’ll hopefully visit in a bit. Biggy made this trip a 10/10 for me. Us girls were so lucky to have him as our guide. If any of us were hurt, ill, or had any questions he was there pronto. I’m also so awkward in front of a camera and he was the best at directing and taking our photos, we all got some really great photos which we’ll cherish forever. Thailand had so much to offer and I feel like we had a jam packed trip but also appreciated how much free ti...

Biggy was an amazing guide
! A guide, nurse, translator, photographer, karaoke partner, map and also a friend. Such a fantastic, helpful, professional guide, I don’t know what we would’ve done without him! Everything was planned to perfection with a great itinerary and also a lovely amount of free time to use as we pleased. Thailand was an incredible place full of wonderful people and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the trip to friends and family, with the hopes that they’d all be lucky enough to have Biggy as their guide too!
