Amazing trip!

We had such a great time on the Phi Phi Islands The islands were absolutely beautiful, the water was crystal clear, and snorkeling was one of the highlights of the day. The staff were friendly, helpful, and took great care of everyone throughout the trip. Everything was well organized and the speedboat ride was fun too. Definitely one of our favorite experiences in Phuket. Highly recommended if you want to explore Phi Phi and Khai Islands!

Great!

It was such a fun and enjoyable trip! The guide was very professional, and all the staff were friendly, attentive, and took great care of everyone. They were always ready to bring laughter and fun to everyone on board. The stunning views and crystal-clear, jewel-like sea made the experience even more unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Not a snorkel tour

A great day with super awesome crew very organised. But it’s misleading the snorkel part - one short snorkel with not much to see, second snorkel not snorkel area just ocean. As an avid snorkeler disappointed. But lovely day and sites, the buffet lunch ok. Quick boat :). The photos an extra ~AUD$56 … which was pretty disappointing.

Such a fun time!

The views were absolutely amazing and the water was perfect for this time of the year. clear and not cold! actually very refreshing! Wished we could have been snorkeling more and actually sat on a beach for more than 30 minutes. Tour guide Alex was great! gave us a rundown of what the plan was and how long/time meet up for each island was!
