Patong Beach – Phuket

Trip overview

Beaches and history across three countries: Phuket and the Phi Phi Islands, Ho Chi Minh City with the Cu Chi tunnels and Mekong Delta, then Cebu's island hopping and canyon-blue Kawasan Falls.

Three nights in Phuket give you the Phi Phi Islands by speedboat, the Big Buddha and Old Phuket Town. A direct flight takes you to Ho Chi Minh City for the Cu Chi tunnels and a Mekong Delta boat day. The finale is three nights in Cebu in the Philippines, with island hopping off Mactan and a day in the south for Kawasan Falls and the Oslob coast.

Good to know

Phuket: Stay at Kata or Karon for a calmer base than Patong, with nightlife still close.
Ho Chi Minh City: Visit Cu Chi early to avoid heat and crowds.
Cebu: Oslob whale shark feeding is controversial; we suggest the Moalboal sardine run instead.
