Fantastic Day
What a brilliant day from start to finish. Very well organised. We were picked up from our hotel and took to the marina. Breakfast and drinks were provided free of charge before you boarded the speed boat. Our guide u2018Icecreamu2019 was fantastic and so friendly. nWe had various stops throughout the day and chance to snorkel and kayak which was amazing. Snorkelling equipment and Kayak was included in the tour. We saw the monkeys on Monkey beach and also stopped at Maya Bay. nLunch was in one of the restaurants on Phi Phi Don and there was a great choice of food. nWe were also fed and drinks were readily available on the boat as well. nIt was a bit choppy on the way back and Icecream kept checking we were alright. nIn summary what a fantastic experience which I would highly recommend. Icecream and all the crew were brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. Highlight of our holiday

Best day of the holiday
Wonderful trip excellently organised. Fed and watered adequately throughout the day and visited some marvellous, picturesque sights.
Great ATV trip and ziplining
Fabulous day out for older parents and 4 adult kids. Started with zip lining across 18 platforms which was extremely exhilarating. The staff were very safety conscious but fun and happy to take photos u2026 nThe ATV tour was great fun, 2 hours long and included a trip up to and walk around the big Buddha.
Paid premium service for nothing, disappointing
I recently booked a Viator tour to Similan Island, opting for a 2nd-floor seat at a premium price. However, upon arrival, everybody was assigned to seat on 1st-floor seats, regardless that I have paid for a higher-tier service. This discrepancy between what was promised and what was delivered was extremely disappointing.nnMoreover, the way the situation was handled by both the tour operator and Viator's customer service team was incredibly disappointing. Not only did they fail to provide the service I paid for, but their refusal to refund the price difference was accompanied by rude and unhelpful communication. The operator's complete disregard for my messages without any apology added to the frustration and lack of accountability.nnThe lack of accountability and customer service was frustrating and left a sour taste in what should have been an enjoyable experience. I highly advise against booking through Viator for this specific tour, as the experience fell far below the expected standard.
Memorable day trip with so many highlights
This trip had so many highlights: a buddhist temple inside a cave, an interesting ride by longtail boat in the mangrove with the numerous islands in the background, lunch in the Koh Panyee floating village that boasts a golden dome mosque, the famous James Bond Island, and a canoe ride inside sea caves and through mangrove where we spotted walking fish! Our guide Emma did an excellent job throughout the day and the ice tea and cookies served upon returning from the canoe tour were much appreciated!
A day out not to miss!
Fantastic Day, well organised and thought out. Loved it and would definitely recommend it. Soft drinks and food were available throughout the day and the lunch was great, sights were just amazing. All the crew were brilliant but big shout out to Kim who helped us take some photos we would not have thought to do. I have a mobility issue and all the crew were great in helping when needed. Memories that will stay with me. Thank you.
Great fun on the ATVs around the tracks up to the big Buddha
The trip was well organised from the start picked up from hotel and taken to the location.nGreat fun riding round the tracks up to the big Buddha on the ATVs, the lead riders were great fun to ride with and held our cameras and took some great photographs and videos of us. well looked after.
Jet Skiing for 5 hours!
Jet skiing to 7 different islands was one of the many highlights in Phuket. Fair warning thoughu2026your arms get plenty tired after the five hour excursion. The jet skis were brand new and in good condition with the ability to reach up to 81 km/hr! There were 7 jet skis on our tour and we were always led by two guides on one jet ski so we were never alone. Although we visited 7 islands (monkey island was the mail fun!), we didnu2019t touch down on all seven islands which was fine. (Arms needed a break). Lunch was very minimal but enough for me and was a nice break from jet skiing all afternoon. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience the thrill of a fast paced once in a lifetime experience. nThe only downside is the transportation (included in the $250/jet ski) provided for people staying in the patong beach area of Phuket. Due to traffic, it was an incredibly long (about an hour and a half)and very curvy/windy road to get to their jet ski base. Not recommended for people who get nauseous during curvy ncar rides. The drive home was worse. It took two hours in heavy traffic and the driver was like a jackrabbitu2026full acceleration and then hard on the brakesu2026not easy for any passenger!nBut all in all, would recommend and do again if I go back to Phuket. nnDue to
Great views of Phi Phi Leh and Phi Phi Don
I opted for the Phi Phi Cruiser to have a better overview and it was the right choice. The smaller boats were sailing in the proximity and the islands and the majority had a roof, so the views were probably not the best. On the Phi Phi Cruiser one had a great panoramic view from the upper deck, with no obstacles in front or above. Soft drinks, coffee and snacks were available on the lower deck. Lunch at Phi Phi Hotel on Phi Phi Don, with traditional Thai dishes. Plenty of employees at the Rassada Harbour and on the ferry to guide us through the boarding process and the programme upon arriving at Phi Phi Don.
Beautiful Islands of Phuket
Phi Phi Island hopping tour was one of the highlights of our Phuket trip. The entire tour was conducted smoothly from start to finish. The van pick up from our hotel was on time, worth mentioning is it was clean and comfortable inside. We were brought to the marina where some last minute admin tasks were completed. Coffee, tea, and some cold drinks plus some snacks were offered to guests, all included in the package. We were then divided into groups making sure all travelling companions are in the same group. Each group boarded a speed boat. After a good one hour of travel we arrived at Phi Phi Lay Island. We were allowed to jump off the boat to do some swimming and snorkelling for half an hour. after the allotted time, we boarded the boat to move to Monkey Island. We were not allowed to get off as the monkeys could get aggressive. We just took photos of them, watched them eat bananas and swim. Yes, monkeys could swim! After Monkey Island, we sailed to Phi Phi Don Island where a spread of delicious Thai food is served for lunch. Also some western food in the mix like spaghetti, onion rings, etc. Lunch by the Ocean was a breathtaking sight. After lunch, off we went to the beautiful Maya Bay - a location in one of Leonardo Di Caprio's film. We explored the shores of Maya Bay but were prohibited from swimming in the beach. They believe new corals are flourishing in the sea and they want to protect these corals from contamination of the ocean from the sunscreens, lotions, and oils that people apply in their bodies. Maya Bay sits in a cove therefore, the ocean is calm and still that makes it even more beautiful. After Maya Bay, off we went to Khai Nai Beach for another chance to swim. By the shoreline, we rented an umbrella, table and lounge chairs where we relaxed and enjoyed the sun , sand, and sea as we sipped our Mai Tai cocktails. We then went for a swim and the many beautiful and colourful fishes circled us. It was a fun and amazing sight! From Khai Nai beach we sailed back to the marina where a van awaits to bring us back to the hotel. Overall, it was a tour worthy of spending a whole day on. So many wonderful experiences and memories we could tell our family and friends back home. Highly recommended.
Siam Niramit - A Grand Experience
Siam Niramit is a Cultural show not to miss in Phuket. The whole production set up was extravagant and lavish. Showcased were the colourful costumes, talented casts, and elaborate props well put together to come up with an amazing show. The whole venue itself had interesting replicas of the houses from the olden days showing their culture and livelihood during wet and dry seasons. Their sources of living were farming and fishing. There were even some demonstrations on how they prepared their food with some tasting of the food on offer. Tickets to the show included dinner where there was a wide variety of Thai food on the buffet. Some western food was also offered, but of course we opted for the delicious Thai food. There was also a pre-show at the Plaza where their national costumes, music and dances were presented. The main show in the theatre was spectacular and it was suitable for people of all ages. The event also had hotel pick up and drop off. It was well organised because they have assigned pick up points after the show depending on which hotel or resort you are staying. Everything went smoothly from start to finish which made us enjoy this event and would recommend this Cultural show to anyone visiting Phuket.
Phi-phi island
Donu2019t book through this Agency Oh-Ha as they will transfer you to another Speedboat Andaman Surprise and you have to pay for 30% cost higher. Agency service is not good but Andaman Surprise is good
Amazing service beautiful views
The staff made the experience so great. They are funny and kind yet put safety first! They took great pictures for us and the islands were breathtaking. 10/10 must do
Great trip, but bring a bathing suit and your own towel
Awesome guides, food and caves. Mr. u201cUu201d was our guide, and he was also in charge of the trip. He really made our trip worthwhile. My only suggestions would be to list on their site to bring a bathing suit and a towel. They donu2019t mention it and if you want a towel (and he will get wet so I would recommend it) you have to pay 100 bhat ($3 USD) to rent one.nAlso, we were supposed to make our own Loy krathong, but he did 99% of it. I wouldu2019ve liked to have done some of it myself since I like arts and crafts.
Jetski Tour
The jetski tour was wonderful. The two guides we had were great and took lots of photos. The islands were lovely and the lunch that was included was delicious.nThe driver was 45 mins late picking us up, however, the tour still ran for the time they specified, just finished later.nThe price on the website doesn't state which currency the $223 cost is in, for Australian's it was about $380 for the day.
Good Tour and Views!
We had a great time on this ATV tour. We had a pick up and drop off from our hotel in Patong Beach. The wife and I had our own guide and he took us off on our own even though there were other riders and groups on the property. The guide did a great job keeping us away from other larger groups and we were able to actually ride and enjoy the experience. It looked like he was having some fun too, since we are both good riders, so he was getting to ride some as well. The view of Old Phuket and the Marina from Big Buddha are fantastic. The guide took us on every trail they had on the property and would stop for the occasional photo opportunity. We even passed some folks riding elephants. Cheers!
Amazing
Fantastic tour, with a range of things to do throughout the day.nTour guide was amazing.nWould 100% recommend.
Don't, just don't do it.
Do not go there! This is just mass tourism at its finest and you'll loose one day of your holiday.nThe only star for the tour will be given to nancy and the nice crew that tried making a very bad business to a nice experience.nnIn the end, the u0022snorkelingu0022 tour had 2x30min snorkelinh with 200 other tourists in the water in a caged square. Some of the snorkeling time was spent with looking at non-swimmers trying to enter the sea and let them be teared around from the crew. Sadly, the corals were already mostly dead and the fish scared away by all the tourists hunting the poor sea turtle. It was just not nice! nnNewer in my life I will attend another of these tours again, next time I'll pay 10 times the price for a private tour, as my holiday time is too valuable, compared to this experience.
amazing time!! but terrible food lol
This was an amazing experience! The phi phi islands were absolutely incredible, I have never seen such blue water! We got to snorkel and see so many fish and coral reefs it was so cool! We got to jump off the boat and swim and it was such a nice time! A few negatives, we were picked up soo so early, and ended up having to wait around almost 2 hours until we left. We had to get up at 6am to be ready for pickup and we were so tired and waiting around just was a bit frustrating, I would honestly have just taken my own transportation if I would have known we would be waiting around, but having it included in the price deterred us from doing that. Another down side was that it did rain on our trip out, while we were fortunate enough to be sitting in the covered part of the boat, there werenu2019t enough seats for everyone to sit there, so some people had to brave the weather on a speedboat and get pelted with rain in the front. For lunch we stopped on an island which was nice, but the food was absolutely horrible. I was hoping for some really good traditional thai food, instead we got spaghetti with tomato sauce, and terrible white rice with chicken wings. There were also a couple curries available which I feel like was just a strange combination of food if you are trying to offer food most people will enjoy. I left lunch so hungry and we ended up ordering actual good thai food at the next island, which we had to pay for of course. Part of me felt like we were fed nasty food so we would spend money at that island or the next for good food lol. While the rain of course is out of their control, we ended up having almost 2 hours to hang out at the last island we stopped at, and it was pouring so we just sat under small umbrellas that they made us pass through that you have to pay for, when if you just kept walking there was a huge covered area to sit for freeu2026another thing that felt frustrating. It was a little boring to just sit and have nothing to do during a huge rain storm for well over an hour, but unfortunately thatu2019s just how it goes sometimes with weather! Overall we really enjoyed our time! I think the waiting in the morning and the food were just my two big complaints. Having a more efficient pick up system so people arenu2019t waiting around for so long or being picked up way too early would be so helpful. And serving actual good breakfast and lunch is a hugeee thing, PLEASE improve your food selection to better actual thai dishes!!
