The Best!

Codey_L, Mar 2024

The best day ever! Our tour guide Sexy Goodies and his crew were the best ever! Highly recommend!!!👌

Great tour. Lagoon swim...

Shiraz, Mar 2024

Great tour. Lagoon swim was amazing. The stop at the sanctuary was a bit of a waste of time since you couldn’t swim at the beach.

The trip did not take place!

Kevin_B, Feb 2024

The trip was cancelled by the vendor less than 24 hours before it was due to begin! It was too late to book an alternative trip. Very annoyed a day disappointed.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Greetings from V. Marine Tour, Thank you for writing a review. We would like to explain that we cancelled your trip because you were coming from a cruise ship. So, there wouldn't be enough time. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Loved the monkeys

Bill_C, Jan 2024

Loved Monkey Island and seeing all the monkeys of all ages. They were so cute. The boat ride was very rocky because of the weather but other than that, the day was perfect.

A great time was had by the whole family

Alex_D, Jan 2024

Loved our tour guide: sexy goodies. They were a lot of fun and always helping out if anyone needed anything. The snorkeling location was okay. It was nice to be away from others but it wasnt a great location to see much. The beach we stopped at was amazing to snorkel at. I think most people really missed out because the snorkeling was presented as just one of the many options to do at the location. The water was so much clearer and the fish were beautiful! Overall it was a great trip and we enjoyed each spot we stopped at.

Wonderful trip

Emily_K, Dec 2023

This was a wonderful tour of the beautiful Phi Phi islands. I was worried it would be rushed but there was enough time to see each place - I think we had about 40 minutes to an hour at each stop. Which may not be for everybody but it was perfect for me. The lunch served is very nice. And I don't think I could ever forget our wonderful guide, Goodies!

Fun day snorkeling, swimming and beach around awesome Phi Phi islands

Jani_M, Dec 2023

We had a super fun day snorkeling, swimming and beach around the beautiful Phi Phi islands. The snorkeling spots were great, we saw all the typical reef fish and some that we haven't seen before. Plenty of time at each stop and a great flow overall! The food offered at Phi Phi Don was plenty and tasty and the restaurant had an awesome sea view. Our guide P was fun, friendly and attentive to the group and individual needs throughout the day. Together with the crew they really made our day totally awesome! When in Phuket, take this tour, it is really fun and excellent value! 10 out of 10, thank you!

Great experience

Lauren_B, Nov 2023

A beautiful experience. We had Goodie as our tour guide for the trip and we could not have been happier. He really made the experience incredible. He gave us all the information we needed, he was very clear with instructions, he looked after everyone and made us all laugh. The day was a bit overcast but the sun managed to shine through at all the right times. I would highly recommend this trip, even if it’s just to ride with ‘sexy’ Goodie!

Amazing Experience! It’s a must here in Phuket!

LOUIGI_P, Aug 2023

We had an amazing time! We really enjoyed the snorkelling at the Bamboo and PhiPhi islands. There’s lots of fishes and swimming was really fun! We had a top notch crew at V. Marine Tour and our tour guide, PhiHandsome was just phenomenal. They were there from start to finish to make sure our experience is amazing. I highly recommend this trip and V. Marine Tour! Hope you guys enjoy as much as we did! Tip: Bring some bread to feed the fishes so they come to you and bring some cash as well to tip the incredible crew of PhiHandsome!

it was good but you need...

Bader_D, Aug 2023

it was good but you need to be careful when snorkeling and better buy water shoes since there are many sharp rocks, they also should have let us wear the life vests during the speed boat transportation since the weather was windy and the water was very strong.

Beautiful locations, good fun, but take your Dramamine

Carl_D, Jul 2023

Had an amazing time diving/jumping off the boat and swimming in the bay, great fun snorkeling, a yummy buffet lunch and a nice time swimming at Bamboo island. Sadly rough water caused Maya Bay to be closed, the water at Bamboo island to be sandy making snorkeling impossible, and causing 5 people on the tour to get badly seasick.

Great experience when in Phuket

Jessica_S, Jul 2023

Its a Great experience when in Phuket. Very pretty water with nice swimming spots. Lunch provided is quite nice. Only negative is how crowded and busy maya bay is. As well as some of the spots we stayed longer then we thought was necessary. But overall it was a really good day and was great you could hire a photographer to capture the whole day too! Only (1700 bht for the whole family)

Sexy Goodie - best tour guide!

TinaS, Jun 2023

We had a magnificent day with our fabulous guide Sexy Goodie. Sexy brought the day to life, made sure we were all safe and all on time and did it in a fun and glamorous way. We had perfect weather and the snorkelling was great. The buffet lunch was tasty and the snacks along the way made sure we were never hungry. My advice though is to check the weather before going as a windy or big swell day would make it a very rough ride and not great snorkelling. Also remember to put suncream on your back and back of legs as you're face down snorkelling in the water for some time. I forgot my legs.. ouch!

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Thank you for writing a marvelous review. We highly appreciate it, hearing that you had a fabulous day makes us feel very joyful. Thank you for giving a special mention to tour guide Goodies. Enjoy the rest of your stay in Phuket.

Chiara_T, Jun 2023

My partner and I had a great day on the boat! Obviously it is a tour so the boat was yes a bit crowded and we had a certain amount of time to spend at each stop but we never felt rushed and our guide Sunny was really nice. We are totally satisfied with the tour and the food and snacks offered. Beautiful snorkelling and tour experience :)
