Taking a flight from some of the major cities of India like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai and Bangalore up to Phuket is one of the best ways to travel from India to Phuket. There are many direct flights available from Delhi to Phuket at a reasonable price. There are connecting flights available from India to Phuket. The nearest airport to Phuket is the Phuket International Airport, which is the busiest airport in Thailand after the Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok.

Drsaurabhtiwari's 5 days trip to Phuket

My agent Kajal really helped me with every details. She made this trip very comfortable for me. No significant issues I faced during my travel. The only request is to inform the travellers about SIC. They keep calling 1 hr before the expected time and are very rigid. Otherwise I had a great trip. B

Sanjana's 7 days trip to Phuket

Our trip to Bangkok, Chiang Rai, and Pattaya was fantastic and exceptionally well-organized. Everything from the hotel transfers to the city tours happened exactly as planned. A special shout-out to our driver for the Chiang Rai portion—he was professional, always on time, and made the long journey

very comfortable. The sights, especially the temples in Chiang Rai, were highlights for us. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a stress-free Thailand experience!

Aditya Srivastava

Aditya's 7 days trip to Phuket

Trip was fantastic…. Raisha was very supportive throughout the trip as well as operation team also. Room of Naina Resort was little bit confined that could be upgraded. Also I would recommend to go with travel triangle.(especially book trip through Raisha of holiday paradise)

Piyush Kl

Ahemdabad

Piyush's 5 days trip to Phuket

The itinerary was scheduled in a very hectic manner, as if the focus was only on achieving targets rather than ensuring a comfortable travel experience. Insufficient time was allotted at most locations, which did not allow travellers to properly enjoy or explore the places. The food arrangements, es

pecially for Indian cuisine, were not managed satisfactorily.

Garg Neeraj

Delhi

Garg's 4 days trip to Phuket

Thailand was an absolute dream! We had an incredible time exploring Poda Island, Maya Bay, and the Phi Phi Islands. The adventure activities like river rafting and the ATV rides were highlights of our trip, and we’re leaving with amazing memories and photos. However, our experience at Naina Spa and

Resort was the complete opposite. The staff behavior was unprofessional and rude, and the service was overall pathetic. It was a major dampener on an otherwise perfect vacation. While Phuket is stunning, this resort made our stay quite miserable. I would recommend enjoying the sights of Phuket but staying elsewhere. We have some best memories from Phi Phi Island, Poda Island and Two Bay beach. I would like to visit Thailand beach and beauty again.

Renjikthomas's 5 days trip to Phuket

We recently returned from a wonderful family trip to Bangkok and Pattaya, flawlessly organized by Trave Terra at TravelTriangle From the start, the booking process was incredibly efficient, taking the stress out of the planning phase. What truly set this apart was the support from Vikas during the t

rip; when we encountered a minor concern with our hotel, the Vikas stepped in immediately. Having an agent advocate for us on the ground was a massive advantage and resolved the issue instantly. Even any concerns he answered promptly giving us satisfactory resolutions. All arrangements and logistics were handled with precision, and the communication throughout was consistently transparent and proactive. Thank you for being a reliable, professional travel partner for our holiday

Tiwari Roopak

Bengaluru

Tiwari's 8 days trip to Phuket

Everything was well arranged and managed. Team on one trip was great and responsive. The karabi cha da hotel was not a satisfactory choice. Bathroom shower was defective and was not attended despite requests . Alternate arrangements could have been made. There were slight coordination issues between

teams working but resolved after discussion. Overall a very good travel experience. Thanks to Kush ji and his team.
