Traveler reviews
Fun initially but description wasn't accurate and attempted to manipulate you to spend more money at the end
The itinerary indicated four stops with the tour starting at 9. The tour didn't start until after 9:30 and there was five stops. The fifth stop was an island where they left you for an 1.5 hrs to swim. You had to pay for a chair or pay to do other activities. I was not anticipating swimming so hadn't worn my swimsuit. I had chatted with the tour personnel and asked the question about a swimsuit but they didn't answer. I did enjoy the other stops although the itinerary didn't give an accurate depiction of all the stops. First stop we hiked through a cave. Second stop was James Bond Island. Third stop was the floating village for lunch and fourth stop they took us on canoes around the rock formations. Tony and his crew were very attentive. I did think we had too much time at some of the stops. I also was unaware that we would be getting on and off the boat in water. Luckily I had on shoes that could get wet but others in the group did not.
Fantastic Island Adventure
The tour was very well organised, and Ibrahim, our guide, was both very funny and knowledgeable. He also kindly helped take many photos for everyone, especially at James Bond Island, which we really appreciated. The speedboat ride was a little bumpy due to the weather, but that was beyond anyone’s control. We had an amazing time exploring the different islands. Each stop was unique and well worth visiting. Initially, when I booked the tour through Viator, I didn’t receive responses to my questions, which made me a little bit nervous as we were arriving by cruise ship in the morning with an overnight port stay in Phuket. However, everything was sorted out with the tour operator the day before the trip. A private shuttle was arranged to pick us up at the tender port at 8:30am and return us without any issues. Everything ran like clockwork. Overall, a wonderful experience and highly recommended!
Truly Amazing Phuket Excursion !
This is a must do excursion when visiting Phuket. The host was extremely kind and had a great sense of humor! The speedboat ride was very bumpy to say the least due to the high tides. The stops made on the itinerary were great which included a delicious lunch towards the end. It was my daughter’s birthday and the host sang her HBD and also gave her a heart shape fresh fruit melon cake! This was so very thoughtful and greatly appreciated!!! Overall, my family and I had a great time on this excursion and give it a 10/10!
Great ride
We loved this super well organized day. What a beautiful discovery! Thank you for everything, especially to our guide.
