      Couldn’t even locate the service
      Didn’t go, couldn’t find the service. Ended up laying for a private tour with a local and his long tail boat, highly recommend doing that and not booking these overcrowded scams

      Amazing islands tour
      Amazing islands tour, with our friends, the guide guy was cute and Always helpfull. The finish with fluorescent plancton was a little bit disappointing, because I expect something spectacular but no match effect in fact.

      Absolutely great tour
      Covered several very scenic locations, and in a stylish way with the longtail boat. Reasonably prices for what is offered - highly recommended!

      Impressively run trip that delivered what it promised
      Well run trip. V efficient Thai lady led the trip well. Boat was quick, got to islands early before the crowd. Decent time at certain locations. Lunch could have been better

      Be ready for an adventure most of which will e the boat ride
      This was a wilder ride than anticipated. The water was choppy. Front seats get soaked. The arrival to Maya Beach park dock was like a wave ride at an amusement park. I could have skipped the stop as we were pushed through lines like cattle to the beachfront only to be told we could enter to our ankles. That said the park ranger in the megaphone was hilarious. Think Parks & Recreation Thai style. The snorkeling at the nearby cove was very good. I was also underwhelmed with Monkey Island as we’d had many monkey encounters already at other locations. I wish the “guides” would have provided more interpretation. We heard very little about the history, geography, flora and fauna, etc. etc..

      The trip was amazing! I would highly recommend a long boat tour if you are a couple. The guide was great. The stops were great. We wouldn't have changed anything.

      Highly recommend
      The tour guide was a local to Koh Phi Phi. He was a personable and entertaining guide who shared his local knowledge with all us tourists ☺️ The weather was variable the day we went due recent rains. He made sure to take us to different snorkeling areas that were going to be the most protected from high waves so there was more visibility and a better experience overall. Very well organised tour Shepherding a lot of half asleep tourists into groups with coloured wristbands to ensure we didn’t get lost! Starting the tour with a cup of tea and mango sticky rice was an unexpected bonus 😃

      Phi Phi with Maya Bay
      The trip was great, our boat was the first in Maya Bay, great spots for snorkeling and making incredible memories. I would highly recommend to anyone, getting up early really pays off.

      Well planned itinerary for Phi Phi boat tour

      Beautiful islands, great value for money
      Such an amazing trip for the price we paid!! Got to snorkel 4/5 times, chances to swim with sharks (if they were there) and free time on bamboo island and maya bay. The staff were amazing and made sure we knew not to touch the monkeys and the reefs. Included was an orange juice drink, waters, sandwich and a veg rice box! Definitely the best trip out there and was well worth it!

      Amazing day!
      Truly amazing!!! We had such a fantastic day on this private boat tour around the beautiful Phi Phi Islands. Everything went so well from our meeting point in the morning, to our delicious lunch provided and then our fantastic guide/boat driver Tong, topped it all off. It really was a memorable experience.

      Long day, great views
      The islands were amazing, the views were spectacular. It’s a great way to see a lot of the islands in one day. There’s a lot of snorkelling and water time involved. We’d give it more of a 3.5/5 rating overall. The tour was a bit slow starting off - we were waiting for about half an hour before we got on the boat (i believe this was for other people to join the tour group). There were 15 people in the group in total. If you’re sitting at the back of the boat, bring ear plugs! It’s quite loud back there. I feel like lunch provided wasn’t great at all compared to other excursions I’ve been on (but to be fair, it’s hard to provide food for people on a boat). For the last stop of the tour after sunset, we were supposed to see bioluminescent plankton. However they were barely visible and no one in the tour stayed out for that long to look at them. It’s a very long day so make sure you’re full of energy and bring snacks!

      A paradisiacal day
      An excellent day of beautiful landscapes, diving and beautiful beaches. However, the Longtail boat is uncomfortable and, for those who don't dive, it is complicated by the lack of toilet facilities.

      Need to limit number on boat and lift boat cover higher .
      Tour was over an hour late starting and there was 16 people On the small boat , 18 with guides. Cover on top was really low so couldn’t even see out properly . We were near back so literally couldn’t see any of the view and we couldn’t move around as it put the balance of the boat out . Places we could get out at were beautiful but far too many people on boat and need a higher cover , especially for Taller people . Also a non smoking boat as that was also really unpleasant hving smokers on board. Don’t like to give a bad review but really disappointed that we literally could only see the bottom of everywhere we went because of the low Cover on boat and way to many people Onboard. Also back early so didn’t want to wait 2 hours for swim. I would recommend shorter tour then this one and also ask the tour what the maximum people On board is.

    Weirdly, the tour guide just ignored me and kept taking other guests. Other guests also kept butting in front of me in the line. It’s an issue with my personality that I don’t stand up for myself enough. I’m working on it. At a certain point, the guide stood up and said that all who had checked in should follow him. That was literally everyone standing there but me. I hadn’t been checked in yet. He had ignored me.

    When he came back, he started checking in more people. Of course, none of them were me. At one point, I made a comment and he either didn’t hear or didn’t understand. Others in the line did. I had been trying to check into my tour for 20 minutes, ignored the entire time. He reached out his hand and asked for the people next to me’s ticket. They didn’t give it to him. Instead, they just looked over at me. He motioned his empty hand again. I slid my phone with its ticket into his hand. He handed the phone back to me, and took the ticket from the next guest. I walked to the back of the line. I have no idea what the issue was.

    When I had finally checked in, I was placed in the 10:30 group and not the 10:00 group.

    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.

    Technically all that was advertised was provided - the stops, snacks, water, and snorkeling mask. I wouldn't repeat it as the "guide" was talking loudly on his phone every minute the boat was moving, and he sat in the bow smoking which blew smoke on all 12 of us passengers.
    The 2 diving spots were wonderful, with great corals and variety of fish. Maya bay was a parade of people and you can't go in the water from the beach you pay to visit. I'm glad they are healing the bay but it didn't seem worth the entrance fee. Monkey beach did have monkeys.. but no beach with the afternoon high tide.
    I think you get random guides/drivers with this booking so some a probably better. We would have spent more to have a private boat and more freedom to snorkel.

    The snorkelling was definitely a highlight of this trip the reef was absolutely beautiful so many fish and even saw a black tip reef shark it was absolutely beautiful I really recommend going snorkelling while in phi phi islands. The longboat ride itself was really fun, a little bumpy when waves hit but very fun experience and nothing to worry about. Maya bay is beautiful but swimming is prohibited in the bay which unfortunately I didn’t realise beforehand, really crowded but a nice spot for photos only since you can’t go into the water so prepare for that. Water and fruit is provided for the half day tour that we took.

    Don’t do it. Waited 45 minutes on the pier before tour started. Guides chain smoked the entire trip, some might not mind this but we did and it spoiled the experience. Guides were rude (accounting for language and cultural differences, guides communicated by shouting and ordering). Everything was rushed. Food was a jam sandwich, orange cordial drink and rice with cabbage, onion and two bits of carrot. For just a little more (ironically our private tour the next day cost the same) you could hire a private boat and have a much better experience. I regret going on this tour immensely.

    This was lovely as you got to see the beautiful islands. But everything was rushed- no information about the places visited from the tour guides. Was sad to see how commercialised & over populated by tourists the damage is doing to these beautiful islands.
    If you are going to visit Phi Phi pay a bit more either stay on the island or have your own visit tour.

    Had a great day exploring all the must see snorkel spots of phi phi island. When booking, know that this is a tour run by locals and not a fancy tour company. You get a basic sandwich and orange juice when you get on, and fried rice in the afternoon.

    We did 7 stops including Maya Bay, Monkey Beach and swimming with plankton. My advice would be to sit at the front end of the boat as the back is very loud and you can’t talk during the transfers to the next spot.

    All in all I think the trip exceeded my expectations. It’s a nice way to see all the major attractions of the islands on a budget.

    The experience was average. Guide just named the places and hadn't explained anything about them. But please make sure everyone gets a receipt for THB400 national park fee (This no one checked inside the national park), don't know if was it even legal or just a SCAM.

    This tour was a lot of fun, you get a full day travelling around in longtail boat, swimming and snorkeling. I am not a strong swimmer and have never snorkeled before, but we had life jackets if you wanted and snorkel masks to borrow, so I had no problems and got to enjoy swimming in the ocean and seeing lots of colourful fish and sea urchins
    Our guide had limited English, however enough to effectively communicate. I thought we had the right amount of time at each stop and the guide made sure no one got left behind by doing regular headcounts. Lunch and snacks were pretty basic, if you have a big appetite I'd consider bringing extra snacks - rice, simple sandwich, sliced pineapple
    Make sure you have lots of suncream. When snorkeling, the water cools you down so you don't realise how hot the sun is. I got VERY SUNBURNT despite applying suncream in the morning

    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.
