Surat Thani Province Holiday Packages

Holidays To Surat Thani

Surat Thani holidays will turn you loose in a province that truly lives up to its moniker, which translates to "City of Good People."

A fascinating diversion on its own, Surat Thani is also your gateway to the natural beauty and good times found in Thailand. Whether you're looking for a tropical place to "Thai the knot" or a party atmosphere to "Thai one on", Surat Thani will provide.

Things to Do in Surat Thani

Surat Thani enjoys a slower, quieter way of life than other Thai hot spots, and when you book one of our Surat Thani holiday packages you’ll be ready to indulge in complete relaxation. Kick back in a quiet pub with the locals, or explore colourful Buddhist temples and fragrant markets. For cheekier fun, visit the Monkey Training College about 8 km out of town. It's easy to reach if you pick up one of Wotif’s Surat Thani car hire options. At the college, the handlers train their simian charges in the fine art of coconut collecting, which involves charging up the tree trunks and twisting off each nut until it drops. The teaching is reward-based and humane…and adorable to photograph. Just saying!

Ready to head out to sea? Take a tour of beautiful Ang Thong National Marine Park. This archipelago of more than 40 islands lies just off Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand. Turquoise waters lap beaches near limestone mountains covered in dense jungles. Turn up the activity metre with snorkelling, diving, kayaking and swimming, or keep it set low as you laze on a beach with a good book.

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

Your Surat Thani holiday isn’t complete without snagging a few souvenirs for your mates, right? Several collectives around town sell handmade baskets and woven textiles you'll pay less here than you would in a busy shopping centre, and you'll be supporting local communities. Win-win! The night market on Saturdays is fun and lively, crowded with local families. Set along the banks of the Ta Pi River, which flows through town, it sells mostly clothes and souvenirs. Further out is the sleek and modern Tesco-Lotus shopping centre for all your Western essentials.

The night market is also the place to gorge on delicious southern Thai street food. Soft and flavoursome skewers of meat, fried and soupy noodle dishes, sticky desserts and fresh juices will keep you loosening your belt throughout your stay. Several eateries shuck the large local oysters Surat Thani is known for, along with plating up delicious incarnations of all your avourite Western meals.

The city's smattering of friendly, quiet bars are perfect for a chat over a few cold drinks. Meanwhile, make the most out of our Surat Thani packages by taking a trip to the region's islands, most notably Koh Samui. Head out around Koh Samui's main beach, Chaweng, for smooth cocktail lounges or relaxed bars with sports and funky live music. The island's legendary nightclubs come to life later on and crank the party well into the next day with international DJs and dazzling light shows.
