The Benefits of Chartering a Yacht in Phuket, Thailand.

You have many options for your next holiday in Phuket, Thailand…

– thousands of package tours and resort hotels where you can get a great tan, dine with your family and friends, and maybe find a club to go to in the evening.

So why charter a yacht?

We believe that chartering a beautiful yacht is the ultimate way to spend a holiday. Our clients tell us over and over again “This was the best vacation ever in Phuket”!

A yacht charter holiday vacation gives you these benefits:

Stay in a different location each night without re-packing
Avoid the holiday crowds while going to the most desirable locations
Learn new skills that are valuable for a lifetime
Be as relaxed or active as you like with full use of any water toys at your disposal
Learn about the region from experts without taking tours

Being on a boat brings you much closer to your friends and family, because you have shared a magical experience enhanced by being free on the water together.

Many people worry that they’ll be too cramped on a boat, and that the close quarters will lead to problems. Having put literally thousands of happy clients on yacht charters, we simply have not seen this occur (unless the people really didn’t belong together and knew it beforehand).

You spend so much time in the water, on the beach, or just enjoying the experience, that the closeness rarely seems to be a problem. If you feel cramped for any reason, just take a book to the bow deck and you’ll feel refreshed and invigorated. Or take a dinghy to shore and explore!

A vacation like no other…

The combination of freedom and accomplishment that you get on a boat is a powerful, nearly addictive force. Which is why people who charter a boat once tend to do it time after time, and won’t settle for a hotel room when they can have the entire sea as their vacation home!

We get literally hundreds of glowing reviews a year from clients – you may read some of them on our TRIPADVISOR page.

There is plenty of information on www.tigermarinecharter.com to help you decide in finding the perfect boat.

Crewed Charters…

All Luxury Yachts and nearly all Motor Yachts that come with an experienced crew that is familiar with both the boat and the local waters. When you charter a luxury yacht the crews can range from 2-infinity. There are different jobs within the crew. You typically have a host and skipper. It truly becomes the most luxurious place in the world! We work closely with the crews, providing the most memorable experience for our guests. We visit the yachts and meet and greet all our guests, on embarkation and disembarkation, having the best time on your holidays in Phuket Thailand that you will remember long after your holidays.
