Private 4-Island Longtail Boat Tour

Excellent tour with lots of stops. The snorkelling was exciting and we saw lots of fish including eels, sea snakes and a small shark! The guide knew great spots. The beach stop was beautiful with a delicious light lunch and the emerald cave was a wonderful surprise. Jim was a great guide, very helpful and kind.

Our private longtail boat tour was one of the highlights of our stay in Ko Lanta. We paid £165, and for a private boat with a dedicated crew, it was worth every single penny. If you are debating between a shared tour and this, book the private option if you can afford the extra, the flexibility to escape the crowds and the personalised attention made all the difference. Everything was perfectly organized. We were picked up at our hotel at 9:00 AM for a quick 20-minute transfer to Old Town Pier. By 9:45 AM, we were on the water with our two fantastic crew members, who asked exactly where we wanted to go. Koh Ngai: This was a dream. Glistening white sand and crystal-blue water with only one secluded hotel. As a first-time snorkeler, I was blown away by the coral reefs, sponges, and colorful fish, we even saw a sea turtle! We ended the hour with a cold drink at a tiny beach bar with only about 10 other tourists in sight. Pure heaven. Koh Maa: Known as "Horse Island," the snorkeling here was brilliant? with vibrant "rainbow" blue fish and orange-striped varieties everywhere. The crew prepared a wonderful lunch on a secluded beach on the back side of Koh Ngai. We had delicious Massaman curry, noodles, and rice at a picnic bench under a shade tree. It was so peaceful and much better than the "buffet style" lunches on the larger tour boats. The Emerald Cave (Koh Mook): This is the "must-see" of the trip. It was busy, but for good reason. You swim 80 meters through a dark sea cave (I used my phone torch to see the walls). Our guide was so kind, since he was wearing flippers, he actually pulled me along to make it easier! Emerging on the other side into the hidden lagoon is breathtaking. Surrounded by towering limestone cliffs and emerald-green water, it felt like a secret prehistoric paradise. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our day and would book a private boat again in a heartbeat.

Very nice boat trip with a longtail boat. We had a private boat for us 4 in the family. The staff were very helpful and helpful. Stopped in 4 places but unfortunately not Emiral Cave as the water level was too high to enter. The coral reefs were not as amazing as I remember them 20 years ago when we were here last but we saw a lot of fish. Getting in and out of the boat at the stops was a bit demanding. You need to be reasonably agile to do it. Got to borrow cyclops and snorkel plus life jacket. But flippers had help a little when in a few places there were some strong currents. But the staff were very helpful and could make sure you got back to the boat or were picked up if needed. Transportation to and from the hotel worked well.

Went with my partner and mom. We had the most amazing experience with Lee as our guide. I did not get our drivers name but he was incredible too. Private tour- totally catered to us. Lunch was so good. Cannot recommend this enough! We booked a day in advance and everything was perfect.

Very nice outing to do without hesitation we had a great day.
