Had a great time on this island tour. The buffet style lunch was actually really good and our tour guides were friendly and funny. Really enjoyed both Racha and Coral island. Seeing Horn Bills and Monitor Lizards on Coral island was also super cool.

Highly recommend this trip. Family of four (2 adults and 2 teenage boys). Communication via notifications and emails in the days leading up to the trip was really good. On the day the transport arrived bang on time as promised. Check in process was smooth and our guide explained how the day would work. The boat was fun and had lots of complimentary refreshments on board. The islands were beautiful and there was something for everyone on offer while we were there. We all agreed it was a great day!

Amazing Tour! Everything was organized perfectly and in time. We have been picked up at 08:03 (08:00/8:15 was the expected time). We had a short check in for about 30-45 min at the port and went to the boat. It was not too crowded and enough space for everyone. The first island (racha) was amazing! Beautiful place with white sand. We had around 2h to spend there. After that we went to corak island where we had a nice bufdet and free beach beds. Also here plebty of time to enjoy the beautiful beach! Thanks a lot

Great value for money, fab crew. Smooth hotel pickup, speedboat with soft drinks offered on board, a basic tasty lunch - yes there’s a lot of other tourists on both islands but they’re beautiful spots. Worth doing for sure!

Had a great experience with Sasha as our guide during the trip. Everything was well organized, the journey felt smooth, and we always felt safe throughout. Sasha was helpful, professional, and made sure the trip went comfortably. Overall, it was definitely worth it and I’d recommend Sasha to anyone looking for a reliable guide.

Skip Phi Phi islands and head to Rachi. Absolutely stunning. From the water to the sand this is what I came to Thailand for! Beautiful island. The only issue is no chairs or umbrellas so be prepared to bring with you the beach blankets and towels. I would go back in a moment. Researched the hotel there to stay but sold out during our stay.

It was a snorkeling tour, so I would have liked to spend more time snorkeling then the allowed ~30 minutes. The tour was great and Racha Beach was beautiful, but I wouldn't have loved to have less time on coral beach and maybe an extra excursion to go snorkeling instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Phuket 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 extra transfer charge ─ 250 thb/pax (round trip): panwa, boat lagoon, koh sirey, kamala, surin, bangtao, laguna, leamhin and extra transfer charge ─ 2,000 thb/private van (round trip): layan, naithon, naiyang, maikhao, ao por, airport. 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.
