For a 9 hour “snorkelling tour” I was incredibly disappointed with the 30 minutes we actually got. If you like taking instagram photos and being surrounded by tourists this is the tour for you. After a loud and uncomfortable hour in the boat you will reach your first destination, an island with nothing to do except take photos and swim in the shallow people soup swimming area. The second destination (Maya bay) is the same experience, except you cant even swim :( . The ocean was too rough so the tour was shortened - but not too rough apparently to leave the boat rolling in the huge waves while we waited for the sun to set. We couldn’t even see the sunset because the boat was facing the wrong way the whole time. The first 5 hours felt like a complete waste of time, and for the final 2 hours I was tempted to jump overboard and swim back out of boredom and frustration. The short snorkelling session was fine, nothing amazing.
Starting from Phi Phi made the tour easy, and the longtail boat added a local touch. Maya Bay was stunning, but simply cruising around the islands was just as enjoyable.
They denied boarding to one of us traveling with a baby and refuse to refund the ticket. They said it was because of the wind but weather was calm. Nowhere on the description disallow traveling with a baby
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We sincerely apologize for the frustration and disappointment this situation caused, especially when traveling with a baby. We completely understand how upsetting this must have been for you. The decision not to allow boarding was made by our operations team with safety as the top priority. Even when sea conditions appear calm, factors such as wind forecasts, wave patterns, and safety regulations for infants can require last-minute decisions. We regret if this was not clearly communicated at the time of booking. We appreciate your feedback regarding the tour description, and we will review this carefully to ensure clearer information is provided for families traveling with young children. Please feel free to contact us directly with your booking details so we can review your case and assist you further if possible. Thank you for your high recommendation, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide an even better experience in the future. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
My wife and I had a great time. Lots of opportunities to swim and snorkel. We were lucky to get good weather, and thanks to the crew, we all had an enjoyable time
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that you and your wife had a great time and enjoyed the swimming and snorkeling opportunities. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again for another memorable adventure. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
Very little actual snorkeling, only a little over an hour on the half day afternoon trip. Very disorganized tour, had to wait a long time in the heat/sun to load the boat. It was never really a “small group,” as there were several other boats with “small groups” at the same stops. Highlight was the plankton at night.
Very good experience... We swam with baby sharks, saw monkeys and stunning views. Staff is very friendly and nice.....
Thank you for sharing your wonderful review. We’re delighted to hear that you had a very good experience, and that our staff made your trip even more enjoyable with their friendliness. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you on another adventure soon. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
A really good tour. Got to see monkeys. Some snorkeling spots where the guide helped to point out the best spots to see sharks. At the end of the trip the guide asked of we wanted to see the bioluminescent plankton so we stopped for a quick snorkeling after the sun had set. A cool extra for an already good tour.
Thank you for sharing your fantastic feedback. We’re thrilled to hear that you had a great time on the tour and were able to see monkeys and snorkel at some amazing spots. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure soon. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
A great packed day of activity. Meeting point busy but provider found us amongst the crowd. Swim and snorkeling was good; only point to consider is it was tricky getting up the steps back onto boat.. I’m 58 & consider myself agile but struggled & much younger people did too…. Obviously Maya Bay was very busy but the tour worked well being dropped off then walking to the beach. Activities well timed throughout the trip.
Thank you for sharing your thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that you had an enjoyable day filled with activities, and that you appreciated the swim and snorkeling experience. We also truly value your feedback regarding the boat steps, and we will certainly take it into consideration to improve accessibility for all guests. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again on another trip in the future. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
