Fantastic tour. Got to fit so much into the day. Beautiful snorkelling. Super fun and entertaining tour guide.
Dale_E, May 2024
Well organised trip. Our group had Dean as the guide and he and the team were amazing. A great way to see a lot in one day. Getting to Maya Bay early is worth it is a beautiful beach. Everyone was well looked after with drinks and food.
David_B, May 2024
Our tour guide Sexy Lady Natty will be long remembered and was a joy to be around very informative and caring.
The tour was well organised and a wonderful day.
Petja_K, Apr 2024
The tour is really scenic. Islands were just amazing. Maya bay was already a bit crowded but you could still enjoy the view and get photos. Food was actually good and eating it on a sandy beach made it even better. Guide was also very nice and funny.

We had a blast! All the beaches were so beautiful. Natty was informative and funny! The food was also amazing and there were lots of cold drinks the whole day.
(At any beach in Krabi) Beware of jellyfish season, at the final beach I got stung really bad on the back of my legs. Luckily Natty saved the day and helped clean me off with vinegar. It took 24 hours to feel better. It’s still worth it though, and so much fun!!!

Our guide Natty was very friendly and informative. We definitely beat the crowds. We got to Maya Bay early so there were very few people. The crowds came after we left. We made it to each place on time, and it was not rushed. The food was great, and we had snacks along the way too. I definitely recommend this to anyone that wants to visit the Phi Phi Islands for the day. 10/10

We booked the early bird tour which starts at 6am because we wanted to avoid the crowd. We were picked up from our hotel timely - and took 30mins drive to another beach to board our speedboat. There were about 3-4 separate groups (by the same operator), and we were given coloured bands to identify the group. Each group has about 30 pax. There were enough seats for everyone and it did not feel cramped or tight. Our guide was Natty and he gave us relevant information before each island and was good in time keeping - he is quite funny too.
We walked a short distance to board the speedboat (with adequate cover from the sun) and then we head towards our first destination which is Tup Island, where we walked on white sandy beaches, and had our breakfast. We were also the first ones there and there were no other boats. Breakfast was “thai donut” (similar with chinese fried fritters), Thai Rice Dessert and some biscuits, hot drinks were served too.
After about 30-40 mins, we boarded the board again and headed towards Maya Bay (where Leonardo Decaprio filmed the move THE BEACH). We arrived at Maya Beach and there were some other groups ahead of us, but not too bad. We managed to take a toilet stop and had adequate time to explore the beach, we saw quite a few baby sharks, and took amazing photos. We had about 50 mins here. When we were leaving Maya Bay, we saw HOARDS of tourists and many other boats just arriving and jamming up the pontoon. We were so glad we were ahead of them. It will take a much longer time for so many boats to dock / disembark and get organized, the time on the island will be very limited.
We then made our way to the rest of the islands to snorkel. Water quality was mostly clear and we saw many types of fish, but do watch out for the jelly fish. I wore long sleeve top and long pants + beach shoes to snorkel and the jelly fish stung me on my ankles where my skin was a wee bit exposed. I am glad i was mostly protected from the sun and from jellyfish. Beach shoes is a must (i noticed many of the other guests not wearing), because the beaches have stones and corals and you could get cuts if u are not careful. Even if the beach is clear, it is super hot to walk on them in the hot sun, so the beach shoes were super helpful. U can get them cheap from any shop along Ao Nang for about Baht250, or maybe less if you strike a good bargain.
Do bring along reef safe sunblock and also a big towel to keep yourself warm - as wind can get quite strong when the speedboat move from island to island ……
I appreciated that everyone in our group kept to the time given, and we are all back on the boat on time or early. Because of this, we had more time at each stop.
Water and soft drinks were kept in a big box - and everyone could help themselves to it. Watermelon and pineapples were served in between breaks. We had dinner on Poda Island which is our last stop - it was simple Thai food but delicious. Mats were provided if you wish to lounge on the beach.
This is one of the last trips i booked as i had booked others (eg night snorkel and mangrove canoe), thinking that it might not be necessary to book this one. However, we are glad we did because we get to get close to the quite a few islands that we otherwise will not get to go to. Snorkelling was fun too.
