This excursion was excellent. Communication was good and prompt. Our guide (Jackie) was welcoming, friendly, hilarious and very helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our outing and we’re pleased with the transportation provided to and from the boat pier. Are also pleased with the timelines, making sure that we were back to our tender pier in Patong in plenty of time.

This experience was amazing. Firstly we stopped at Khai Nok where our tour guide pointed out the best area to snorkel. We stayed here for 1 hr before getting back on the boat and stopping off to snorkel for about 20-30 mins. The tour guide got in the water with us and was pointing out some of the stuff beneath us and explaining how knowledge on things. He knew lots about fishes and jellyfish and even picked one up and threw it. Lastly, we stopped at Khai Nai island (cat island). This was my favourite and you were also able to buy treats to feed the cats. We also had some food (watermelon, pine

Absolutely fantastic, we have done the trip before last year visiting Phuket and the islands never get boring. Our guides Jackie and Anton were so friendly and welcoming always making sure everyone had a good time. There was a little rain but it cleared up and it was still a blast with high spirits, if you can’t swim don’t worry as life jackets are provided and you can still have a snorkel without missing out. Would highly recommend

We had so much fun on the khai island tour! Cat island was such a treat with so many friendly cats everywhere. The water was pretty rough the day we went, but the guides did a great job at accommodating. Definitely worth the price.

Transportation to and from pickup verytp good. Driving through Phuket Town to Marina,wow great driving. Activity was very well organized. some free snacks, a bonus. Our guides Jackie and Anton, excellent. Multilingual switching from Thai, Chinese and English to ensure all guests have fun and understand. felt very safe with boat captain, we had choppy seas when we first left..exciting. We were on short 4hr. tour of 3 Khao Islands ...good value. Last island was best for snorkel and fishes. I would recommend this guide program.

We enjoyed snorkelling from the first island, we jumped off the boat at the second island and then snorkelled at the third island and relaxed for a few hours - the lunch was also good. The weather rained on and off in the afternoon but we still enjoyed the beach. The snorkelling was really good and we were able to see a lot of different beautiful sealife

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Hotel pickup in Phuket. Delight Tours and Travels confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.
The price does not cover transfer from kohkeaw, additional charge at thb 300/pax/round-trip, transfer from cape panwa and rawai by private car at thb 1400/car/round-trip and transfer from surin, bang tao, laguna, nai harn, naiyang, naithorn, layan and mai khao by private car at thb 1,600/car/round-trip. 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 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.
