A super day with a super guide
We had a great day with a lovely and nice guide who has a lot to say and knows a lot. Definitely do it all Is it Worth the Money
A scenic day exploring Phang Nga Bay
The limestone cliffs around Phang Nga Bay were even more impressive than I expected. James Bond Island was busy, but there was still enough time to enjoy the scenery and take photos. The boat ride itself was part of the experience.
Authentic pleasure
We wanted to see phang nga bay in a day to optimize our time in a small boat. Unfortunately this day was not at all the one promised, our only happiness was to tell us that we had paid much less than the other passengers with us. Because you will not be 15 but 30 or 40 on the same boat "long tail boat" which is more a speedboat. This excursion is the same as offered in all information tours but much cheaper on the internet. We were leaving from Krabi and we took 2h30 round trip and 2h30 return between Krabi and the boat is a lot of transport by car for little time visits. We then went to visit the temple and got on the boats towards the canoe. You have paid for the canoe but you are obliged to leave a tip because your guide apparently has no salary, then it is his birthday and then he has children who only eat every other day so you have to leave a very big tip, he will ask you for tip during the whole canoe crossing (impossible to do canoeing alone, it is he who paddle for you and no choice). Then (1:00 pm) you go to visit James Bond Island, which is a small island no prettier than the others but which is expensive and full of people, you can barely walk on the island and you will stay there for some 50 minutes sneaking between Instagram and Tik tok. Then 2pm you may finally be able to eat on the fishermen's island, which in fact is a canteen where you will eat cold because it is 2:30pm and you have 35mn to eat and go around the island (which is a travelling market of the same gadgets as everywhere in Thailand). Then you take the boat back to your minibuses, and again you are strongly encouraged to leave plenty of tips for this unpleasant day.
Nice day!
Well organized, enough time to see everything. Just the weather was so, so. Recommended in the sunny day.
