We had a fantastic day on this Phi Phi Islands speedboat tour. Everything was well organized, and we had a lot of fun throughout the trip.Our guide spoke English very well and explained everything clearly and in an interesting way. The islands were absolutly beautiful, with stuning scenery and crystal-clear water If you’re planning to visit during the monsoon season, the most important thing is to get lucky with the weather. Fortunately, we had good conditions and really enjoyed the experience. The lunch was served buffet-style at a restaurant with a beautiful sea view. The food was tasty, and there was a good selection, including vegetarian dishes, salads, tea/coffee, and fresh fruit.Overall we were very happy with the tour and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Phuket.
Very loud boat engines.. suggestion hand out ear plugs! Loaded on board with very cramped seating! Didn’t stop long enough to enjoy snorkeling and 1 stop waited for 15 minutes for 1 couple to return no fault of boat crew who I would rate 4/5. Lunch looked great but everything was cold..big disappointment! Took much oil in a lot of the prepared dishes. Only thing great was the Salad which was thankfully cold. I would not book this tour again. I would pay higher cost and go on boat with less the 12 passengers. Pay a lot for comfort see less stops stay at great snorkeling places longer.
My friend and I are really glad we booked this tour. They really checked everything off our list. Our tour guide Dada was so knowledgeable and kept the energy really high. We saw the gorgeous waters, we rented a private long tail boat for an extra 2500 baht and got amazing pictures. The lunch was great and catered to our allergies. I definitely think you should book with this group, you will not be disappointed.
This tour brought us to some of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. The snorkeling was the best I’ve done in the world aside from the coast of Belize. The staff - Tommy, in particular, was kind, fun, and very helpful. The included lunch on Phi Phi Island was very good, and overall the cost was very reasonable, especially considering it includes pick up from your hotel. I only rated it four stars, however, because you spend so much of the day in transit and almost all of the places we stopped, were very over-touristed in my opinion. Still, definitely worth the trip to see these stunning places.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the stunning scenery and had such a great snorkeling experience - that’s wonderful to know. Tommy will also be very happy to hear your kind words about his friendly and helpful service. We’re glad you enjoyed the lunch on Phi Phi Island and found the tour good value, especially with hotel pickup included. We completely understand your comments about travel time and busy locations. Phi Phi is one of Thailand’s most popular destinations, so some areas can be crowded, and reaching multiple island highlights in one day does involve time on the boat. Thank you again for your honest feedback and recommendation. We’re happy you still found the trip worth it and hope to welcome you again in the future!
We had a great time! Very affordable and worth the price for what you get. We left our airpods in the boat and they dropped them off for us. We had a lot of fun I would definitely recommend!

The experience to Phi Phi Island was amazing from beginning to end. Our guide, Sandy, was incredible and hilarious. We loved seeing the longboats, baby sharks, monkeys, and jet skiing as well as the lunch. It was a little crowded on the boat, but overall such a fun-filled day!

This day was worth the money. Wonderful crew Omar tour leader explained all the itinerary captain Nicholas was a great driver so trip was not too bumpy and Terry and Spy were there to help you in and out of the boat. We saw many fish when snorkeling all gear except fins provided, four islands stops for relaxing, swimming, beautiful lunch at The Anchor Restaurant. Day was very full but not rushed would highly recommend this tour

Pickup was around 7:30am, everything was well organized. At the pier there was free coffee, tea and snacks before departure from the beautiful Royal Phuket Marina.The islands were amazing, but my favorite stop was the Blue Lagoon. The water was crystal clear and so salty that you can just float and relax. Super nice place for swimming.Lunch was a Thai buffet with vegetarian options and a great sea view. We also visited Monkey Beach and got lucky because the monkeys were there that day! Overall, an awesome trip with friendly staff and beautiful scenery. Definitely recommend this tour if you’re visiting Phuket. We attached some photos too.
