Why you'll love this trip
  • From vibrant Phuket, set sail on the beautifully calm waters of the Andaman Sea on a private yacht and watch unforgettable sunsets from the deck every evening.

  • Feast on delicious food onboard thanks to your private chef who will be whipping up Thai favourites daily. You’ll also have the option to head to some of the local seaside restaurants.
  • Discover Koh Hong's mysterious caves – nicknamed the ice cream caves, for their distinctive stalagmite shape.
  • Take comfort in knowing that your biggest decision each day will be whether to snorkel, paddleboard or kayak.

Is this trip right for you?
  • As most of this trip takes place on a sailing boat, you’ll need to feel comfortable with moving about the vessel, including stairs. Your friendly crew will be able to help with the effects of sea sickness if needed.
  • Time on the water also means time in the sun. Remember to pack sun protection, such as sunscreen and a hat, and drink plenty of water to keep hydrated. See ‘Essential Trip Information’ below for a full packing list.

The skipper will allocate the rooms on arrival to the boat and single travellers will be paired up with another passenger of the same sex, this may mean sharing a double mattress. The skipper will also be sharing the catamaran's facilities and sleeping quarters.

This was a fantastic short holiday! The itinerary was excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this trip. About the only thing I would change would be the disembarkation point of Ko Phi Phi, which was far too crowded for my tastes. Highly recommend this trip!

This one week sailing trip was excellent. Captain Nolte and team took a nice care of all the people on board. The local thai food cooked on the ship was very delicious. I experienced one ofv the best sunsets and night sky in my life. I enjoyed the company of my fellow travelers from different parts of the world.

I had a great time on the 4 day sailing tour from Phuket to Ko Phi Phi. I've never done a sailing trip before and I was worried about getting sea sick but it was smooth sailing. Island hopping, snorkeling, kayaking, cave exploring, and of course just chillin on the front deck were all highlights of this trip. Food was amazing! The only thing I didn't like were the sleeping quarters. I stayed in the twin (bunk bed) cabin. It was very tight spaced and hot. There is a fan, which helped a bit but be warned, it does take a day or 2 to get used to. Otherwise a minor inconvenience. I would highly recommend this tour. Expect high quality as usual from Intrepid. Much appreciate.
