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!

Beautiful views when weather improved stunning pics. Disappointing last stop at Koh Khai Nai, immediately hassled to buy

Overall a fantastic experience but only one real snorkelling opportunity. Should have been warned of expected horrendous first hour’s journey due to rough sea.

A worthwhile trip to Phi Phi island

Best value for money, a day trip that gives you a glimpse of Phi Phi islands and you also get time for relaxing. It's a day full of great experiences! If you only have one day, I recommend this as your best shot to get to know the islands.
