I do not know. I will have to reach out the hotel to see what they offer from the group hotel. The tours suggested were from the boat. I can also ask the boat if any other tours from Khao lak exist that they are aware of.

Please do a group room before and after 2nd week. You have my flight info. Single or shared is ok. Roger.

Roger we do NOT have your Return Home Phuket HKT to Bangkok BKK flight leg - please email to trips@singledivers.com and we will complete adding your Group Hotel dates to the tracking list in the top post. Thanks! :diver:

 

 

 

That is because Roger, Brenda, myself and probably Laura have not bought it yet. I think we were going to get them there.... will double check those planning this after trip excursion which ANYONE is welcome to join us! Right not it is very fluid and we hope to join Laura since she is heading to BKK after the HKT part of the trip.

 

 

My current plan is to fly into bangkok @ noon on the 16th .if my bags get there with me I will likely fly right to phuket that day..I am going to stay in phuket on the 16th, 17th, 18th ( having the 17/18th to sight see) before getting on the boat.. and then when we get off on the 28th I am going to take a speedboat to either Phi Phi and spend the day/1 night there, then on the 2nd speedboat to Railay beach/Krabi and spend the day 1 night there...not sure which one first.... and then on the 3rd fly to Chiang Mai, spending 2 nights in Chiang Mai spending time at the elephant sanctuary (where there is no riding :) ) and then on 5th fly babk to bangkok and spend the 5th and 6th exploring the temples before flying home from bangkok on the 7th .... I would love country hopping buddies if anyone wants to join me..... I have not booked air from bangkok to phuket..I may hold off literally until I know my baggage gets there... and I have not booked air back from phuket to chiang mai yet but will shortly... just trying to make sure the elephant package I want is available on the 4th because it is very important to me :) ..... thoughts....ideas.....  Ill be getting rooms in phuket for the 16th, 17th, and 28th ( assuming the bags get there on the 16th with me) ....

Hey girl...thank you for sharing your plans. I would have loved to stay until the 7th but have to be back to US in time for the Bonaire trip March 10-17. That being said the 3 of us want to squeeze in as much as we can after the trip but also ensuring we can fly home the 5th. If we can join your plans that could work as well. Otherwise we will look to do Temple Tours and other exciting aspects of Bangkok for the days we have after the end of the 2nd cruise/trip.

 

Thank you!
