Details

Set out on a full-day island adventure to discover some of Thailand’s most beautiful sights by speedboat. Depart around 9:30 AM and return to the pier by late afternoon, with hotel transfers available for convenience.

Visit Maya Bay, the world-famous setting of The Beach, where you can take photos of the pristine white sands and emerald waters (swimming not permitted due to conservation). Continue to Pileh Lagoon and swim in its calm turquoise waters — or opt for a short ride on a traditional longtail boat for a classic photo opportunity (extra fee applies).

At Monkey Beach, spot wild monkeys playing along the cliffs and shoreline, then head to a snorkeling site teeming with tropical fish and colorful coral.

Enjoy a buffet lunch at a seaside restaurant on Phi Phi Don Island, with halal and vegan options available. You’ll also have some free time to explore the island at your own pace before sailing past Viking Cave, home to the swiftlet bird nests used in traditional cooking.

Finish your day at Khai Nok Island, where you can relax on soft white sands or swim in the clear, shallow water before returning to Phuket.

We visited beautiful places, but there were a lot of other people. Because of the amount of people, you couldn't see how beautiful it was, couldn't even see where you were!

This day trip was absolutely amazing!! Clear communication from the start. We were picked up and driven to the pier and at the pier we paid our 400 baht entrance fee and were given a coloured wristband to signify which group you were part of. Morning tea was provided, toast with varying toppings, fresh fruit, tea, coffee and water. Each coloured group got called forward and their guide was introduced running through the days activities. Anyone who wanted to buy Water Shoes to make the day easier had the opportunity. We got on the boat, which was a little tricky riding sideways trying not to slide into the person next to me, but it was relatively comfortable. We were advised at each stop if we could swim or if it was just for photos. Mossi was a great guide, lots of fun and laughs, and he was very attentive to the people who got seasick. Would highly recommend. I love to snorkel, I only wish there was more places to.

It was a full day of boating. Bus to harbor and back was excellent. Rainy season so seas were rough. Be prepared -45-60 minutes there and back. Sites/snorkling/swimming/areas were beautiful. Consider bringing water shoes or your own snorkel (if you want). M man was a great guide. Plenty of water on board

Mossi and his team are outstanding! We went in off peak season so some beaches were closed but we didn’t feel like we were missing out. Offpeak also means the boat trip was very dangerous, we felt safe the whole time but I would recommend not taking kids, elderly or if you get seasick. The boat was very very full which was uncomfortable at times. We thoroughly enjoyed the day and would do it again!!

We had Bobby and Mossi as our guides and they were both excellent. The entire trip was very well organized. We were picked up from our hotel on time. At the gathering place, we were offered coffee, tea, sandwiches, and snacks. We were happy about that because we didn't have time for breakfast before we were picked up. The speed boat ride was much better than I expected. It was a bit bumpy, but not bad. I normally get sea sick so I did take a pill at the beginning. I didn't get sick at all! The spots they took us were absolutely gorgeous. We had time to walk around on our own at each spot. Even though the beaches had fine sand, but I still suggest to wear water shoes if you go into the water. There were a lot of rocks and would be difficult to walk without water shoes. We were offered lunch at Phi Phi Island. It was buffet styles and it was excellent with many dishes to choose from! Overall we had a fantastic time on this trip and highly recommend it!

The places we visited are absolutely beautiful but there was way to little time for everything and we felt rushed all the time. I was always checking the time and there was always to little time for everything. I know they are trying to show us as much as possible in one day but maybe the program can be done differently so that people can enjoy more.

An amazing day! We had a lot of fun during the activities, snorkeling, swimming, and enjoying the landscape. Our trip was organized quite well and the guide kept us informed about all details. Johann and his team did a great job ensuring everyone had a fun and safe trip. The supply of complementary snacks and drinks was extraordinary. The only downside was the how crowded the boat was, as limited seating caused some chaos.
