Mixed emotions, beautiful but crowded
Speed boat ride about 45 mins was rather rough. Hang onto your ud83dudc52 nPhi phi even in low season was SO BUSY. water when swimming was beautiful and clean but there were so many boats, I'd hate to see it in high season. Beach at phi phi was lovely, fine white sand, but again, hard to find a free spot in the shade!! Pot for sale, bars all over. Do yourself a favour and skip the included lunch. It's buffet style, average at best and again, so crowded!
Amazing cooking class in Lanta
Wonderful experience in Thai Lanta cooking class. Me and my wife chose the lunch class and cooked 4 recipes both on our own stove. The main cook was lovely and spoke good english. Definitely give it a go if you come by to Koh Lanta!
Happily recommend!
I had a lovely time learning to cook some thai dishes at Koh Lanta Cookery school. nThe methods and ingredients were explained well and they helped us along the way. The cookery book we will be using at home. nThey were very friendly and the setting is beautiful. I would happily recommend this class!
Great snorkelling, great staff!
The staff were very kind and funny, the skipper even took me over to see a gorgeous pink jellyfish. So many iridescent fish, anemones and clownish! Great meal which included vegetarian options. Great communication beforehand and throughout.
Not worth the money
I found it very touristy. Guide was good. Lunch was good. I hated PhiPhi. Ripoff everything at least twice the price of elsewhere. I had a beer then had to pay 30baht to use the washroom. Snorkeling was okay not great. nEverywhere we went was crowded with other boats. Trip back and forth to Phi Phi had extra passengers so boat crowded. Went to monkey bay but there were no monkeys so we didnu2019t stop
traumatic experience
Traumatic experience :Just two words to describe my experience from visiting Phi Phi Islands during my journey to Tailand at the firsts of August 2022 . My Group (travelling with Cosmorama Travel Agency from Athens Greece ) was attacked by a gang of monkeys just after our boarding off at the Phi Phi Island . They were trying to grab our bags . One of them grabbed my bag and when i tried to take it back it bit me ! I was injured , fortunately not very badly and to this helped me that i was wearing upper swimming cloth that was covering my arm . Vaccination treatment was provided to me six times after the incident in PHI PHI islands afterwards to Samui and afterwards to Greece. It was very difficult to find vaccines in Greece! Notice that our Agency leader gave us just a simple warning , while the half of the people of the group had already boarded off! u0022be careful the previous time i was here a monkey grabed my bagu0022 (This scene is recorded by my camera ) The response of Cosmorama travel Agency was the minimum and offending : u0022You can take 150 euros as you deserve from the insurance you bought before tavellingu0022 Not one call of excuse from the time of my accident till now i am writting these words!nI am expecting your proper support!nCheers!nTakis
Below average
Great crew but the whole experience was a bit underwhelming. T&Cs suggested it would be a max of 10 people but in fact we were closer to 30. The visibility in the water was very limited and on occasion, we found ourselves coming out of the sea with pretty bad itches.
Good but too many tourists
The trip was all as advertised, and the guides were very nice and efficient, however unlike the rest of our activities Phi Phi island is too busy for us, especially Maya Bay, so if you are okay with crowds of tourists then this trip is fine, otherwise avoid it.
Fun trip
Really fun trip. The emerald cave was spectacular. Fun to visit several islands. Nice lunch. Good boat.
It was really great ud83dude01ud83dudc4dud83eudd70
My teacher San is an amazing and very sweet teacher! I had fun and learnt so much about cooking my favorite Thai dishes. nThanks San ud83dude01ud83dude4f
Stay away from this company!
Safety of the passengers was compromised with no remorse or refund. Speedboat day tour took off even though there was a risk they couldnu2019t bring us back to Ko Lanta - we (passengers) were not advised of the risk until the harrowing, very choppy speedboat ride ended and we set foot on Phi phi islands. Once we got there the captain told us there were storms expected for 3 days and they likely couldnu2019t take us back to Ko Lanta where we were staying until the storms had passed. Island hopping and all aspects of the activities as part of the tour were also cancelled. To reiterate, This was supposed to be a day tour, so if there was even a risk that the tour would be affected, the company shouldnu2019t have started the trip. We found out later that all other travel agents (through other hotels on the island) had already cancelled due to the high risk. nWhat commenced after that was unprofessional, rude behavior by this company on the phone to refuse refund and coverage for an alternative ferry ride to take us back to Krabi, and 2 hour drive back to Ko Lanta. Our resort (Pimlai) in Ko Lanta also tried to speak with the company on our behalf to ensure we got back safely and compensated, but Pimlai met with the same rude behavior (literally SCREAMING at us on the phone hysterically).nI strongly urge all to avoid this company as it is a matter of safety and ethics. nFor the record we still have not been refunded. I understand that weather can be somewhat unpredictable but there should be consideration of the risk and clear communication of the risks involved to the passengers.
Very good expirence!
Very good trip and friendly staff! Got to see everything you can imagine. A must when you are in phuket/krabi area! Would do this Again
Good tour
A memorable tour that featured two snorkellings near Phi Ley bay. Lunch is much better than we thought it would be and served right after the first snorkelling was considerate, but second snorkelling right after the lunch was a bit too much.
Delicious, fun and professionel
Me and my sisters went to cooking class with Pan as the chef, at it was a great experience. The food tasted delicious and it was easy to understand it all. Pan was good at english an to explain all about the ingrediens. It was so fun!
Excellent!
Wonderful, knowledgeable teachers. Our best experience on Koh Lanta. Already cooked for friends at home, and they loved it! Easier to cook thai than you would think. Thank you!
Disappointing kayak tour
1. pick up was time consuming. We had to pick up two more people who booked a private tour. They still had breakfast when we arrived at there Hotel and we waited 15 minutes in the sun.nn2. we booked kayak in the mangrove forest. On arrival we had to do a 90 minutes stupid long tail boat tour to drive to some island where we did not leave the boat. This is not listed in the tour description. Then the guides found out that we did not full day tour and we retourniert to pier. Ok between we had to change boats on the oceans.nn3. nobody talked to us about what is going on. Nobody did speak a word of English. Tour description says different.nn4. tour description says that all fees are included. On arrival we had to pay an entrance fee.nn5. restaurant was not super nice. We opted for take away food. Food was basic fried rice, but tasted ok.nn6. return transport back was again chaotic. For last 2km we had to change taxis, no idea why. Nobody talked to us.nnWe simply wanted to do kayaking in the mangrove forest. Kayaking lasted 30 minutes. We visited some apes that jumped on the boat. We only stayed in the big river.nnAll together we can not recommend this trip if you want to go kajaking. nnTour guide was nice and fun. Organisation and management was a total mess.
Great Experience
We had a great experience with our guide, Sing. I am in a wheelchair and he handled it like a pro and was incredibly helpful. He pointed out crabs and explained things well. Our kids especially loved the monkeys hopping into our boats. Warning: If you drive yourself, at the entrance to the park, there is a con-man who will try to stop you and get you to pay him, so just drive on past him until you get to the park and see the wooden bridge.
very nice morning with a boat trip in the mangrove
A canoe ride along magnificent cliffs, with a swimming break, and the observation of swimming monkeys on the way back. There were only 6 of us, plus an escort and the captain of the boat. The atmosphere was serene and pleasant, far removed from crowded tourist excursions; ideal for a couple. There is little information provided regarding the organization but it worked without worries, including the transfer from the hotel.
The cave was cool
The first snorkeling spot was really bad. Cloudy water, you hardly saw anything. Second spot much better, there was a lot to see. The island where lunch was also good. Here you could relax and take pictures. The guide was super cool. There was plenty and unlimited water on board. Transport in the morning was half an hour late, but OK.
Absolutely fantastic and affordable excursion!
Perfect, Absolutely fantastic and affordable excursion! we recommend; A taxi came to pick us up at the hotel, the guide was super simple
