Full description

This is a 7.5-hour experience from Krabi, built around Nopparat Thara pier, Speedboat and Railay Beach. It is run by Thailand Escapes, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Pickup is offered from Ao Nang, Nong Thale, Ao Nammao and Krabi; the exact spot and time are agreed with Thailand Escapes once the booking is confirmed, and the option you choose sets whether transport is included.

The price covers Hotel round-trip transfer, Drinking water & seasonal fruit, Buffet lunch in Phi Phi Arida restaurant, Snorkeling equipment and Life jackets. It does not cover National Park Entrance Fee of Hat Noppharat Thara, Personal gratuities, Fins and Tips, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Thailand Escapes sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Thailand Escapes before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Tour Guide Sally was fantastic (5stars). She was a great balance between fun & informative. Going to the lagoon at Phi Phi Leh first was a great move as we got to enjoy the warm, emerald waters with only a few other boats & by the time we left it was very crowded. Maya Bay was beautiful, but quite crowded. The lunch was delicious and the snorkelling spot chosen had plenty of corals, anemones and fish, including pipefish that look like they could be a sea horse. Added bonus was one of the deck hands took underwater photos of people snorkelling and provided them to you for free! All in all, good

Our tour guide was amazing, super funny, attentive and caring. We did everything that was promised on the tour even though some stops weren’t really fun as the tide was high. We didn’t get to see many monkeys or even sand at Monkey Bay for example. But of course that doesn’t depend on the tour but on nature itself! We had a great time on the tour, they explain everything, provide equipment for snorkeling and lunch was great! 100% recommended

No me gustó nada, pero no por la organización, si no porque está súper masificado con demasiada gente y demasiados barcos. Tenemos la culpa todos los turistas que queremos ir al mismo lado.

Unser Ausflug hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir bekamen eine Whatsapp Nachricht von Sea Eagle Tours mit unserer Abholzeit vom Hotel. Wir wurden zum Boot gebracht und dann ging es schon los. Es war trotz Hitze immer genug Wasser zum Trinken da und wir haben wie in der Beschreibung angegeben alle Orte besucht. Das inkludierte Essen im Restaurant schmeckte uns sehr gut und ich wurde mehr als satt. Frau Sali, unser Tourguide war sehr lustig und hat uns alle bei Laune gehalten. Beim Schnorcheln hat uns Mr. Kai fotografiert und wir haben per whatsapp (gratis!)unsere Bilder bekommen. Sehr empfehlenswert

Frequently Asked Questions

Thailand Escapes sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed.
The price does not cover national park entrance fee of hat noppharat thara – mu ko phi phi national park' of 400 thb per adult and 200 thb per child, personal gratuities, fins and tips. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
Not in rough sea. The Andaman side is calm from November to April and choppy from May to October, when the marine office can close the piers at short notice; if that happens the operator moves you to the next day or refunds in full. Seasickness tablets the night before help on speedboats, and Maya Bay itself closes to visitors in August and September each year.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

The duration of the Ultimate Phi Phi and Maya Bay Ascent by Speedboat is typically 7.5 hours. We recommend arriving 15 minutes before the scheduled start time for a smooth check-in. Your guide will meet you at the designated meeting point and ensure the experience runs on schedule while remaining flexible to your pace.
For most experiences, we highly recommend an early morning start. This allows you to avoid the midday heat, bypass the largest crowds, and capture the best lighting for photography. Your guide can advise on the optimal timing based on the season and specific attractions included.
Yes, once your booking is completed via our secure payment gateway, you will receive an instant confirmation email with your tour details, meeting point address, guide's name, and direct contact information. You can also view and manage your booking through your AsiaByLocals account dashboard.
Yes! All our private tours are fully customizable. Whether you want to add extra stops, skip certain locations, change the pace, or adjust the start time — simply let your guide know in advance or on the day. We aim to create a personalized experience tailored to your interests and energy level.
We offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before the scheduled start time for a full refund. Cancellations within 24 hours may be subject to a partial charge depending on the tour type. Weather-related cancellations for outdoor and boat tours are handled on a case-by-case basis, with full refunds or free rebooking offered when safety is a concern.
Most of our experiences are family-friendly and suitable for children of all ages. However, some tours involving extensive walking, water activities, or early morning starts may be better suited for children aged 5 and above. Please check the specific tour description for age recommendations, or contact us for personalized family itinerary advice.
After booking, you will receive detailed meeting point instructions via email. Most tours include complimentary hotel pickup within the central area. For tours without pickup, your confirmation email will include the exact address, Google Maps pin, and your guide's phone number for easy coordination.

Many hold government-issued tourism licenses, university degrees in history or cultural studies, and have years of experience leading tours for international travelers. Every guide maintains a minimum 4.5-star rating to remain active on our platform.
The dry season from November to April offers the best weather for island-hopping tours and beach activities. December to March is peak season with calm seas, perfect for Phi Phi and Phang Nga Bay boat trips. May to October (monsoon) is quieter and cheaper but some boat tours may be affected by rough seas. See our Phuket travel guide for detailed month-by-month advice.
Phuket is one of Southeast Asia's safest tourist destinations with excellent infrastructure, friendly locals, and a strong tourist police presence. Standard precautions apply: use reputable transport, stay aware in crowded areas, and book verified tours through trusted platforms. For water activities, all our tours include safety equipment and experienced crew.
The top experiences include: the Phi Phi Islands for snorkeling and Maya Bay, Phang Nga Bay for dramatic limestone cliffs and James Bond Island, the Big Buddha for panoramic views, Wat Chalong temple, and the charming Phuket Old Town for street food and Sino-Portuguese architecture. See our things to do guide for the complete list.
Yes! Direct flights between Phuket and Bangkok take just 1 hour 20 minutes. We recommend 3–4 days in Phuket for island tours, then 2–3 days in Bangkok for temples, markets, and street food. Our local guides operate in both cities for seamless trip planning.
We strongly recommend comprehensive travel insurance covering water sports before booking any speedboat tour or island-hopping excursion. While all our boats carry safety equipment and licensed crews, Thai hospital costs can be significant without coverage. Ensure your policy covers emergency medical evacuation and water activity accidents.
