Itinerary
Get picked up from the entire Phuket island by luxury minivan. Meet your lead guide at Ao Por Pier in the north of Phuket and depart early morning in a longtail boat. Circumvent north Phang Nga Bay and head to Hong Island for the first kayaking stop. Try hard-shell kayaking at the most spectacular spots on the planet. Be warned – it’s dangerously addictive. Your guide gives you basic kayaking instruction so you can paddle your own kayak. Or, you can opt to paddle a double kayak with a guide. Continue to Koh Yao Yao Island and enjoy lunch at a local Thai restaurant, with healthy and high quality food. Then head to Panak Island, for the second kayaking stop which includes the limestone caves and hidden cliff-lined lagoons discovered by John Gray in 1989. This private trip is perfect in tandem with Hong by Starlight trip for guests who previously booked hotel and people who do not want to camp overnight or want to explore the Bay by themselves on a longtail boat. You can customize the itinerary with your lead guide, probably born and raised in Phang Nga Bay.

Traveler reviews
By girlfriends 40th birthday made so special by john grays team
What an amazing experience!!! Where do i start??? From the minute we arrived at john grays shop after being picked up, we we greeted immediately from one of the funniest and most pleasant Thai men i have met. He spoke amazing English and had a great sense of humour. They were very organised and we was on the boat in no time. The food was spectacular and all the staff were so friendly. We also had a great sense of being safe on this trip. They were so clean and our safety was paramount and briefings given in several different languages. The experience in the water was second to none and they gave us more than enough time to see everything we wanted and more!!! They gave us information and pointed many things out with their trained eyes that we would never have seen alone. Snakes, spiders, bats, monkey, shrimps….. this have made My girlfriends 40th birthday something she will never forget and for that i will be grateful forever. By far the safest, most informative, and pleasant trip i have done abroad, not just in thailand but every country ive been to. A day later and im still overwhelmed by it. I highly recommend these guys
