Phuket and Krabi Itinerary 2026: 6 or 7 Days from ₹49,999

A 6-day Phuket and Krabi itinerary with us costs from ₹49,999 per person with return flights from Ahmedabad, and a 7-day week starts at ₹56,999, or ₹74,999 for our Phuket-based honeymoon week (prices checked 16 Oct 2026). The simplest split is two nights in Phuket for Old Town and a Phi Phi day, then three nights in Krabi for the four-island circuit, Railay and the mangroves.

All three trips list return flights from Ahmedabad, 4-star stays on twin sharing with daily breakfast, transfers, the listed island days and a trip captain with a local crew. GST and TCS are shown in your written quote.

Prices checked 16 Oct 2026 from our live trip pages. Visa rule checked with the Tourism Authority of Thailand's newsroom, and sea conditions with the Thai Meteorological Department, in October 2026.

How do you split 6 or 7 days between Phuket and Krabi?

Start in Phuket, because the flights land there, and finish in Krabi, where the four-island, mangrove and Railay days begin. Two nights in Phuket and three in Krabi give you three full days on or near the water and one easy travel day. This is how our Phuket–Krabi Island Hopper runs.

What a seventh day adds

Use a seventh day as a rest day in Ao Nang between boat days, not as a fourth island. If you add a night to the 6-day plan, we price it in your quote.

The other way to spend seven days is our Thailand: Islands & Street-Food Nights week: two island days on private longtail boats among the limestone islands, a Phuket Old Town street-food walk with a local chef, a free day, a private beach bonfire night and four dinners included.

How much does a Phuket and Krabi trip cost from India?

Our prices on 16 Oct 2026, per person; the price for your dates is confirmed in the written quote.

For a couple or a family, multiply the per-person price. Children's prices depend on age and bedding, so we price them in the quote. These totals are before GST and TCS.

Not included: lunches on free days, optional add-ons, alcohol, personal shopping and tips, and travel insurance. For the wider budget, read our Thailand trip cost guide.

Entry rules for Indians

There is no visa fee for a holiday of this length. From 15 Sep 2026, Indian passport holders can stay up to 30 days without a visa for tourism, replacing the earlier 60-day rule (TAT Newsroom, tatnews.org, checked October 2026). File the Thailand Digital Arrival Card at tdac.immigration.go.th up to three days before arrival, carry a passport valid for at least six months from departure, as our trip pages ask, and be ready to show proof of funds at immigration if asked (TAT Newsroom visitor information, checked October 2026).

How do you get from Phuket to Krabi?

On the Island Hopper the crossing is day 3 and part of the included transfers: by road around Phang Nga Bay or by ferry, settled with you closer to the date based on the sea, your luggage and who is travelling.

We don't print a fixed journey time, because it depends on the route, the traffic and the sea. Treat it as a travel day. You don't need to go back to Phuket at the end: the last day flies home from Krabi or back via Phuket, depending on the flights for your dates.

Which island day trips fit the plan?

The first three are in the Island Hopper; the fourth is in the honeymoon week.

• Phi Phi by speedboat. About 45 minutes out, depending on the sea, for Maya Bay, Pileh Lagoon, Monkey Beach and lunch on Phi Phi Don. Booked on its own, our Phi Phi Islands Speedboat Day is ₹5,999 per person with national park fees, snorkel gear and lunch; transport to the meeting point is extra.
• Krabi's four islands. Poda, Chicken Island, Tup Island, where a sandbar at low tide lets you walk between two islands, and Phra Nang beach, with snorkelling at each stop.
• Railay and the mangroves. Kayaking through the Ao Thalane channels between limestone walls, then Railay, which you can reach only by boat.
• Phang Nga Bay by private longtail. Limestone towers in flat green water, sea caves at the right tide and a lagoon you can enter only at low water.

To compare speedboat and big-boat options, see our Phi Phi island tour price guide. For other Phuket and Krabi trips, see the Thailand destination guide.

Is this route easy with children or parents?

Yes, if you pace it. Island days are full days on boats with swimming and snorkelling stops, which suits children who are comfortable in open water and parents who are steady getting in and out of boats.

• Children: on the Islands & Street-Food Nights week, swimming is not required; every water activity has a float-vest option and the cliff jump is optional. Speedboats bounce over open water, and the back seats are calmer than the front.
• Elderly parents: our notes for the Island Hopper suggest rest between island days, which is why we suggest the 7-day version with a free day in Krabi. If a parent would rather skip a speedboat day, we can plan a beach day instead and price the change.
• Vegetarian and Jain food: tell us when you enquire, and your trip captain checks each included meal and island lunch.

When is the sea calm on the Andaman coast?

Phuket and Krabi face the Andaman Sea, which takes the southwest monsoon. TAT's newsroom describes May to October as the monsoon on that side of Thailand, with September the wettest month, ferry crossings choppier than usual and many smaller islands shut (tatnews.org, checked October 2026).

October is the changeover. The Thai Meteorological Department's forecast for the southern west coast, issued on 17 Oct 2026, expected scattered thundershowers and isolated heavy rain in Phang Nga, Krabi and nearby provinces, with waves of about 1 metre and above 2 metres in thundershowers (tmd.go.th, checked October 2026). For October or early November dates, keep a free day between boat days.

What does a honeymoon version of this route look like?

Our Thailand Honeymoon Edit keeps you in one villa for six nights. It is from ₹74,999 per person, or ₹1,49,998 for two before GST and TCS. The trip page lists a private pool villa with a floating breakfast twice, a longtail chartered for two into Phang Nga Bay, a two-hour couple's spa, an afternoon in Old Phuket Town, an island day by private speedboat to Phi Phi or the quieter Coral Island, and a candlelit dinner on the sand on the last evening. If you want Krabi's cliffs too, we can swap a night for Railay and price the difference.
