Thailand's Island Gem

Golden beaches, jungle hills, island-hopping and spicy street food—Phuket delivers the full Thai escape.

Phuket is where postcard views meet real-life adventure. With white-sand beaches, turquoise waters, and jungle-covered hills, it’s the kind of place that draws you in—whether you’re here to relax, explore, or dive headfirst into Thailand's culture.

Beach-wise, there’s something for every mood. Patong is lively and loud, known for water sports by day and neon nightlife by night. Kata offers a calmer vibe that’s great for families, while Freedom Beach is tucked away and tranquil. Wherever you end up, the sea is warm, the sand is soft, and the sunsets are reliably stunning.

But Phuket is more than just a beach break. Its Old Town is a colourful tangle of heritage shophouses, temples, and lively markets. Stop by the towering Big Buddha for sweeping island views and a touch of quiet reflection, or join a cooking class to learn the secrets behind Thailand’s famously punchy cuisine.

The island is also a perfect launchpad for day trips. Head out to the Phi Phi Islands, cruise around Phang Nga Bay, or dive into the coral-filled waters of the Similan Islands. You don’t need to go far to find lagoons, limestone cliffs, or hidden beaches.

When it comes to food, Phuket doesn’t hold back. Feast on spicy curries, fresh seafood, and street food favourites like Pad Thai and mango sticky rice. Between meals, unwind at a world-class spa, take a yoga class, or simply sit back and soak it all in.

What we like about Phuket is its easy mix of laid-back luxury and vibrant local life. It’s the kind of island that suits beach-lovers, culture-seekers, and adventure-chasers alike.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!

It was a dreamy holiday on the Kenyan Coast - Far and Wild, their efficiency and professionalism allowed us to relax and be the happiest family alive !! We cannot fault them, their care and understanding of what we wanted from a holiday ensured we had the most memorable trip. We will be booking with them again for sure!
