Phuket & Krabi
The Andaman, Done Right
Phi Phi by speedboat, four islands by longtail, and sunsets that earn the hype.
Consult Our Travel PlannerJourney Highlights
- The Phi Phi day by speedboat — Maya Bay’s limestone amphitheatre, snorkelling at Pileh Lagoon, monkeys ignoring you at Monkey Beach.
- Krabi’s four-island tour by longtail: Phra Nang’s cave beach, the sandbar walk to Tup Island at low tide.
- Sunset from Phuket’s Big Buddha, 45 metres of white marble looking down the whole Andaman coast.
- An evening in Old Phuket Town — Sino-Portuguese shophouses, weekend walking-street food, buildings in ice-cream colours.
- Railay Beach, reachable only by boat, where climbers inch up cliffs behind the sunbathers.
- A Thai cooking class morning in Krabi — pounding green curry paste you will attempt exactly once at home.
- The last night at Ao Nang’s beachfront, grilled seafood and mango sticky rice, longtails silhouetted offshore.

TWO SIDES OF ANDAMAN
Phuket and Krabi share one sea and split one holiday neatly — three nights of energy, two of calm. Direct flights from Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru land in about four hours, and Thailand currently waves Indian passports through without a visa, which is half the reason this trip books itself.
Phuket carries the set pieces: the Phi Phi speedboat day, the Big Buddha, Old Town’s shophouse evenings. Then a two-hour transfer to Krabi trades speedboats for longtails — the four-island tour past Phra Nang’s cave beach and the low-tide sandbar at Tup, with Railay’s cliffs for the ambitious.
The Andaman here is genuinely as advertised — jade water, karst cliffs straight out of the water — and genuinely shared; Maya Bay takes visitor caps seriously and still fills by 10 am. Krabi runs quieter and greener than Phuket, and both coasts turn rough between May and October, when boat schedules become suggestions.
Some moments are built for lingering: the engine cutting inside Pileh Lagoon and the sudden silence in a bowl of green water; the tide pulling back to reveal the walkable sandbar at Tup; the 6.30 pm light at Ao Nang going pink behind a line of anchored longtails.
Built for friends’ groups, couples, and families who want their beaches with restaurants and life around them. Not for seclusion purists — this is the busy, sociable Andaman — and not ideal June to September, when the sea decides which islands you visit.
Good to
know
Do Indians need a visa for Thailand?
Currently, no — Thailand has extended visa-free entry to Indian passport holders, with a digital arrival card filed online before landing. The permitted stay and rules get adjusted periodically, so your curator confirms the current position before you book, not after.
