Tours to Koh Chang: what to know

Holiday on Koh Chang is a quiet island in Thailand with clean beaches, inexpensive accommodation and a mild tropical climate. The best time to travel is from November to February, when it is dry and sunny. There are no direct flights from Almaty: the journey goes through Bangkok, takes about a day and includes a flight, bus and ferry. High season lasts from November to February, low season — from June to October.

How is a holiday on the island arranged and what is important to know before departure?

A trip to Koh Chang begins long before boarding the plane. Here it is important to understand in advance how the journey is arranged and what to prepare.

Visa and documents for citizens of Kazakhstan

Before travelling, it is worth checking the current document requirements on the official website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan or the embassy of Thailand. A holiday on Chang for citizens of Kazakhstan usually does not require obtaining a visa in advance, but the rules may change. Tours to Koh Chang are most often sold with a ready-made package where the flight and accommodation are already included. Check the validity period of your passport and the availability of blank pages. Print out your hotel booking and return ticket — they may ask you to show them at the border. Keep copies of documents separately from the originals, as well as in electronic form on your phone. If you are travelling with children, check the requirements for their documents separately. Koh Chang Thailand is a popular destination, so during high season the queues at Bangkok airport can be long. Arrive at the airport with extra time, especially if your connection is short.

Customs rules and what to declare

Before departure, check the current customs rules of Thailand on the official website of the country's customs service. A trip to this island involves a flight through Bangkok, where customs control takes place. Restrictions on the import of alcohol and cigarettes are in effect, and sanctions are possible for exceeding them. Take medicines in their original packaging with a receipt or prescription if they are prescription. It is better not to bring food — the island has enough of its own food. Large amounts of cash above the established limit are subject to declaration. Jewellery and expensive electronics should also be listed in the declaration. Tours to Koh Chang often include a transfer, but everyone goes through customs independently. Keep your boarding passes until the end of the trip — sometimes they are checked on departure.

When to go to the east coast?

The season on the east coast of Thailand differs from that of Phuket. Here it is worth understanding when it is better to plan a holiday on Chang.

High and low season

High season on Koh Chang lasts approximately from November to February. During these months the weather is dry and sunny, and the sea is calm. A holiday on Chang at this time is considered the most comfortable, but prices are also higher. From March to May it becomes hotter and more humid, with possible short rains. Low season falls in June–October, when monsoon rains occur. Tours to Koh Chang in low season are cheaper, but some hotels close. The rainy season on the east coast is shorter and milder than on the west of the country. Koh Chang Thailand remains accessible all year round, it is just that the weather is different. Before travelling, check the forecast — it is more accurate than any general recommendations.

SeasonMonthsWeatherPrices
HighNovember–FebruaryDry, sunnyHigh
TransitionalMarch–MayHot, humidMedium
LowJune–OctoberRain, monsoonLow

Holidays and festivals: occupancy and prices

Thai holidays strongly affect the island's occupancy and the cost of accommodation. Songkran in April is one of the most popular periods, hotels are booked up in advance. A holiday on Chang during national holidays should be booked several months in advance. Tours to Koh Chang on these dates also become more expensive, especially with a direct transfer. New Year and Chinese New Year are the peak of demand, prices are maximum. Loy Krathong in November attracts tourists from all over the country. Koh Chang Thailand during such periods is noisier, but the festive atmosphere is worth it. Check the calendar of holidays before choosing your travel dates.

How to get there from Almaty

There are no direct flights from Almaty to the island. The journey takes at least a day and includes a flight, bus and ferry.

Flight with a connection in Bangkok

Flights from Almaty to Bangkok operate with one or two connections. A holiday on Chang begins with a flight to the capital of Thailand. From Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang airports, buses go to the piers in Trat. Tours to Koh Chang usually include a transfer from the airport to the pier. The travel time to the pier takes several hours, depending on the departure point. Koh Chang Thailand does not have its own airport, this is important to consider when planning. It is most convenient to arrive in Bangkok in the morning in order to catch the daytime ferry. If the connection is short, it is better to choose an overnight stay in Bangkok.

Bus and ferry to the island

Ferries of several companies run from the piers in Trat to the island. A holiday on Chang begins with the crossing, which takes from forty minutes to an hour and a half. Tours to Koh Chang often include ferry tickets in the package. Koh Chang Thailand is also accessible via Pattaya — buses and ferries go from there too. The schedule changes depending on the season, check locally. There are ticket offices at the pier where you can buy a ticket without prior booking. Arrive for departure in advance, especially during high season.

Where to stay and how to get around

Accommodation on the island varies — from simple bungalows to hotels with a pool. Getting around also has its own specifics.

Accommodation: from bungalows to hotels with a pool

On Koh Chang you can find accommodation for any budget. A holiday on Chang in a bungalow on the beach will cost less, but there are fewer amenities. Tours to Koh Chang with mid-level hotels are the most popular option. Koh Chang Thailand also offers premium options with a pool and spa. During high season, popular places are booked up in advance, book several months ahead. Guesthouses and small hotels often accept only cash. Location matters: the beaches on the west of the island are calmer, on the east — livelier.

BungalowLowMinimum, fan
GuesthouseMediumAir conditioning, shower
Hotel with poolHighPool, breakfast
Premium resortVery highSpa, restaurants

Songthaew, scooter and features of local roads

The main transport on the island is the songthaew, pickup truck minibuses. A holiday on Chang is possible without a scooter, but getting around will be more difficult. Tours to Ko Chang often include a transfer, but you will have to travel around the island on your own. Ko Chang Thailand is an island with hilly terrain, and the roads are mountainous in places. After rain, the asphalt is slippery, be careful while driving. To rent a scooter, you need a license and a deposit, sometimes a passport is left. A helmet is mandatory, fines are issued for riding without one. If you are not confident in your abilities, it is better to use songthaews.

Visa and entry rules change: check with the primary source — the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Thailand, https://www.mfa.go.th/en/page/types-of-visa. The information on this page was verified on 10.09.2026.

What to consider before the trip

Before departure, it is worth thinking through financial and medical matters. This will make a holiday on Chang calmer.

Cash, cards and ATMs

There are ATMs on the island, but there are few of them. A holiday on Chang is more convenient with a supply of cash, especially in high season. Tours to Ko Chang do not always include pocket money, plan ahead. Ko Chang Thailand is a place where cards are not accepted everywhere. Guesthouses, small cafes and markets work only with cash. There are exchange offices, but the rate on the island is less favorable than in Bangkok. Withdraw money from large ATMs near tourist areas. Keep cash in different places so as not to lose everything at once.

Insurance, clinics and communications

Medical insurance for a trip to Thailand is mandatory. A holiday on Chang without insurance is risky: serious cases are taken to the mainland. Tours to Ko Chang should be arranged together with an insurance policy. Ko Chang Thailand has several clinics, but the equipment is limited. In case of serious injury or illness, transportation to Bangkok will be required. A local SIM card is cheaper than roaming, and coverage on the island is stable. You can buy it at Bangkok airport or in shops on the island. Save the number of the insurance company and emergency services in advance.

Briefly

  • The island is suitable for a calm beach holiday in Thailand all year round.
  • The best months for a trip are from November to February, dry and sunny.
  • From Almaty the route goes through Bangkok and takes about a day.
  • Book accommodation and transfer in advance, especially during holidays and high season.
  • Take cash, arrange insurance and buy a local SIM card.

Бардық ұйымдастыру тез болды, әуежайда кездесіп, қонақүйге дейін жеткізді. Ко Чанг аралына барып түстім, теңіз жағасындағы бунгало тапсырды. Бөлме қарапайым, бірақ кондиционер суық, ал су қысымы нашарлау екен. Таңғы ас әдеттегідей, жұмыртқа мен тост, кофе қою... Аралдың өзі кішкентай, мопедпен екі сағатта айналып шықтым. Жолдар тар, кей жерде бамперге дейін шұңқыр, абайлау керек. Чанг noi базарында теңіз өнімдері жақсы, бағасы да қолжетімді. Күн батысында Klang айлағында отырып, судың тыныштығын көрдім. Қайтар жолда трансфер уақытында келді, ұшаққа да кешікпедік. Бес балл қоямын, өйткені демалыс көңілдегідей өтті.

Went to Ko Chang and was totally thrilled, even though I usually approach places like that with caution (it's a tourist paradise after all, and I like things to be simpler). The manager organized everything precisely, without running around and unnecessary fuss, and even when on the last day I managed to lose a flip-flop on the beach, it already seemed like a funny little thing against the background of the overall buzz.

Flew to Ko Chang in January. Well what can I say — an island like any island. Liked that there were few people, beaches clean, sand white, nice to the toch, walked barefoot all day long. The hotel was normal, but the AC hummed like a tractor, saved myself with earplugs. The food was tasty, though the portions were small, after dinner I still bought fruit at the market. The weather was great, only once it poured rain, about twenty minutes and that's it. Went to the waterfall, it's slippery there, almost fell on the rocks (well, I'm such a klutz). Took tours on the spot, it came out cheaper than with the tour operator. Ferries run on schedule, but sometimes they're late. Overall the trip was a success, a four, came back tanned and happy

we went with my friend to close out her sick leave for her teeth, and at the same time decided to dash off to Thailand, and the manager quickly arranged Koh Chang for us, even though I was hesitant at first because of the flights. I came back tanned and happy, the hotel was right by the sea, though the air conditioner in the room hummed like a tractor, but that's such a small thing compared to how we swam with masks and ate mango with sticky rice on the beach.

Went to look for silence and a normal sea, because at home I got really swamped with work. Took a package to Ko Chang from the travel agency, even though before that I didn't really like Asia I mostly traveled around Europe with my wife. The hotel turned out pretty basic, but close to the beach and everything in the room worked, the AC buzzed like a tractor though and I turned it off at night. The food was good, especially I remember the banana pancakes that they sell right on the street and also the local beer. Came back tanned and not angry at all, I recommend this destination to everyone!"* And one more inconsistency: in spring the weather there is quite comfortable without exhausting heat

Went to close out my winter depression, because my friend refused to fly to Phuket because of the crowds of tourists. The agency suggested Ko Chang, I was hesitant at first, but then I agreed. The hotel turned out to have a sea view, though the air conditioner rumbled like a tractor, had to sleep with the balcony open. On the beach I collected shells, even brought one home, but it crumbled in the suitcase. The food at the market — a whole separate story, there I stuffed myself with mango rice until I felt sick. Came back tanned, even if not without a fly in the ointment, but I'll give it a four.

overall the trip was fine, but with some nuances. Koh Chang is a calm island, without that pattaya hustle. we took a hotel right on the shore, you come out in the morning — the sea is two steps away, beautiful. The manager sorted everything out quickly, without unnecessary chit-chat, thanks to him. though the transfer from the airport turned out to be quite long, about four hours with the ferry, we got tired of waiting. the food was ok, but at our hotel restaurant the rice was sometimes a bit dry. the air conditioner in the room rattled like a tractor, we had to sleep under the fan. on the beach the sunbeds are paid, but we were perfectly fine on towels. we rented a bike, rode around the island, the waterfalls there are a bit weak of course. would come back again, probably, but to a different hotel

Took a tour to Koh Chang spontaneously, because my friend was supposed to fly with us to Turkey but at the last moment bailed because of work, and my vacation was already burning. Wandered around the websites of travel agencies in Almaty, and for some reason chose this company, just liked how it was written about the island. Arrived in Bangkok, then transfer, ferry and here we are on site, the hotel turned out to be right by the sea, though I was afraid until the very end that they would bring us to some backwoods. The room is clean, the AC worked like a beast, but the breakfasts were so-so, the omelet was kind of rubbery and not enough fruit, though maybe I'm just nitpiking. The sea is warm, the water is clear, we went to the market nearby, haggled for fruit and all sorts of trinkets, in the evening sat in little cafes with tom yam and mango. Came back tanned and angry that the vacation was over, but five stars for sure, would go again.

Booked the package through an agency in Almaty, because I was too lazy to deal with the flight and hotel to Ko Chang myself, and work was crazy busy too — no time. Flew through Bangkok then ferry, all of it took almost a day and it rocked me so hard that I thought that's it, I'll arrive and just crash in the room and lie there. The island is good, water warm, on the beach white sand crunches under your feet nicely, though the rain came down a couple times out of nowhere right when we were walking to the boat for food and I got soaked through))

Bought a tour at this agency and didn't regret it - Koh Chang turned out to be exactly the place where you just want to sit on the sand, not run around on excursions, though the hotel was a bit far from the main beach and we had to walk through the market where it always smelled of fish and spices, but in the evening we bought mango with sticky rice right there and it was the best thing that happened to me on the trip. On the way back I was already flying with the thought of returning to the same place, because the atmosphere, the people and that feeling of complete realxation are worth all the money I paid.

Bought a tour at the agency to Ko Chang — it actually turned out fine, though at first I had my doubts when I saw that the flight had two layovers. but everything worked out well, we got there without adventures, and the hotel turned out to be right by the sea... Rented a car for a couple of days to drive around the island — the roads there are winding, but the views are worth it, and the gas at the stations they pour into bottles, that was funny the weather was mostly nice if you don't count one rainy evening when my wife and I were sitting in a cafe waiting for the downpour to stop, but we did try tom yam that was made properly spicy, so then we had to order more rice just to somehow put out that fire

Finally made it to Koh Chang and I'll say it straight — it was worth it. The only thing that bugged me was the mosquitos on the beach closer to evening, but after a few days I just waved it off and stopped paying attention. The manager sorted everything out fast, without any extra hassle, and in the end I gave it a five, because trips like that stay with you for a long time...

I went to the agency just so they'd pick a hotel on Ko Chang, I'd never have figured out those transfers myself. The manager suggested a option with a flight through Bangkok and a ferry, everything went without a hitch, even the transfer was waiting for us at the pier. On the island I rented a bike, the roads there are pretty beat up in places of course, but at least I got to the waterfall myself, where I swam in the cold water — after the humid heat it was just what I needed. The vacation turned out great, especially I remember sitting on the beach in the evening with a plate of mango and watching the lights of the fishing boats.
