Phuket
& Phi Phi

Arrival · Trisara, Phuket Northwest

Arrive Phuket · Trisara · Welcome Dinner at PRU

Touch down at Phuket International, where Trisara's private chauffeur is waiting — a thirty-minute drive south through the rubber plantations of the northwest, then down the dramatic private road that descends into Trisara's hidden bay. Settle in to an Ocean Pool Villa: forty-five-degree views to the Andaman, a private infinity pool over the bay, the original architecture by ML Tridosyuth Devakul that established the standard for villa luxury in Thailand. The Welcome Dinner is at PRU — the Andaman coast's only Michelin-starred restaurant, where chef Jimmy Ophorst sources entirely from the resort's own farm and the surrounding sea, with a tasting menu paired with Thai-inspired cocktails on the open-air terrace.

Round One · Blue Canyon Country Club

Blue Canyon — Canyon Course

Forty minutes inland to Blue Canyon Country Club — Phuket's most acclaimed course and the venue of Tiger Woods' first PGA Tour victory in Asia (the 1998 Johnnie Walker Classic). The Canyon Course was carved by Yoshikazu Kato in 1991 from a former tin-mining valley; its signature is the dramatic 17th, a par-3 played across a 200-foot ravine to a green hung above the water. Tiger called it among the best par-3s in Asia. Lunch at the colonial-style clubhouse with views back across the eighteenth, then return to Trisara for the afternoon — the spa pavilions tucked into the hillside, the long beach below the resort, sundowners on the terrace as the sun drops directly into the Andaman.

The Helicopter Day · Phi Phi Islands

Helicopter to Phi Phi — Maya Bay, Pileh Lagoon & Bamboo Island

The headline day. A pre-dawn departure from Trisara's helipad — fifteen minutes by helicopter directly across the Andaman to the Phi Phi archipelago, the chopper banking low over the karsts as the morning sun rises behind them. Land at the private heliport on Phi Phi Don, where your dedicated speedboat and Mosaico crew await with breakfast. First, the controlled early-morning slot at Maya Bay — the cove that defined a generation of beach photography (and where Leonardo DiCaprio filmed The Beach), now under careful conservation management with limited visitor access. Arriving in the first slot of the day, you have the cathedral of cliffs and the shallow turquoise water largely to yourselves.

Onward to Pileh Lagoon — a natural pool of impossibly clear water, fully enclosed by limestone walls. A long swim, paddleboards from the boat, and a private chef-prepared lunch served on board at anchor. Afternoon snorkelling at Bamboo Island — soft white sand, a coral garden in shallow water — and a quiet stop at Monkey Beach. Late afternoon return chopper to Trisara, arriving in time for sunset on your villa's deck.

Old Phuket Town & The South

Old Phuket Town · Big Buddha · Wat Chalong

A slower day on the island. Morning with your private guide to Old Phuket Town — the Sino-Portuguese quarter of pastel shophouses (yellow, mint, lavender) lining Thalang and Soi Romanee streets, the legacy of Hokkien Chinese tin-mining merchants who arrived in the 1820s. A traditional kopi-tiam breakfast at one of the century-old coffee houses; a tour of the Peranakan mansion museum; the Sunday Walking Street market if your day aligns. Lunch at Raya — a multi-generational family Phuket-Hokkien restaurant in a 1933 Sino-Portuguese mansion, the kind of meal you cannot replicate anywhere else.

Afternoon to Wat Chalong — Phuket's most important Buddhist temple, with its golden-tiled chedi housing a fragment of the Buddha's bone — and the climb to the Big Buddha, the 45-metre white marble statue overlooking the entire southern coast. A late-afternoon return to Trisara, perhaps a session at the spa, a quiet villa dinner with the Trisara private chef.

Round Two · Red Mountain

Red Mountain Golf Club & Trisara Beach Afternoon

A morning round at Red Mountain Golf Club — the most dramatic course in southern Thailand, designed by Schmidt-Curley across the landscape of an abandoned tin mine. The routing climbs and falls through ravines and ridge lines; the soil's namesake red iron-rich earth gives the course its distinctive character; the elevation changes are the largest of any Phuket course. Ranked top five in Thailand by Golf Digest. Lunch at the clubhouse, then return to Trisara for the afternoon. A long session in the sea, a paddleboard around Trisara's bay, and the resort's signature tail-fin sundowner service on the beach as the sun drops — bites and cocktails brought down to your sand-set chairs by the resort's beach team.

The Yacht Day · Phang Nga Bay

Private Yacht to Phang Nga Bay · Hong Sea Caves · Farewell Dinner

The second sea day. A private yacht departs Trisara's beach at mid-morning, heading north-east across the bay toward the karst seascape of Phang Nga — five hundred limestone islands rising from emerald water in a setting that has been a national park since 1981. First stop: James Bond Island (Khao Phing Kan), the dramatic karst that anchored the 1974 climax of The Man with the Golden Gun, photographed from your tender at the angle the cameras used.

Onward to the Hong Islands — the term "hong" means "room" in Thai, and refers to the hidden lagoons inside the limestone islands accessible only through narrow tunnels at low tide by sea kayak. With your Mosaico-arranged kayak guides, you paddle through the cathedral-like tunnels into the hongs, where the cliff walls rise hundreds of feet on every side and the water is so clear the hull seems to float on air. Lunch on the yacht at anchor in a quiet bay, an afternoon swim, and the slow return as the karsts glow copper in the late light. The Grand Farewell Dinner is at Trisara's beachfront — long teak tables on the sand, lanterns, the resort's chef preparing a final southern Thai tasting menu paired with Trisara's wine collection.

Departure · Phuket

Leisure Morning · Onward Travel

A leisurely final morning. Late breakfast on your villa terrace, a final swim, perhaps a closing session at the spa. Trisara's private chauffeur for the thirty-minute transfer to Phuket International for your onward flight. Mosaico's concierge is at your side until check-in.
