Vacations in Phuket City

Why should you book a vacation package to Phuket?

Five million international visitors to Phuket each year come for amazing beaches but miss so much more. Seventy percent of Thailand's largest island is mountains. Phuket flight and hotel combinations are available, but Phuket package deals include new experiences. Phuket vacation packages mix beach days with mountain trips, snorkeling, sailing, and nightlife options.

Explore the island with Phuket travel deals. Choose active and sports-oriented, indulge in the famous Phuket club scene by night and beaches by day, or explore historic towns, temples, and shrines. Phuket package deals get you more cost-effective ways to enjoy your stay.

When should you book a vacation package to Phuket?

Phuket gets especially busy from November to February. The high season energy is attractive as night spots fill and markets get more active. Monsoon season begins in May with occasional heavy rains and heat. Wet, hot conditions intensify in September and October, making these less popular times to visit.

Thai New Year, or Songkran, is celebrated in April. Everyone celebrates with water, and Patong is the center of the action. This is a good time to leave your good clothes and expensive cameras somewhere else or they'll get soaked.
