The guide was super nice and kind, the landscape were amazing. Also the boat trip was super fun! Concerning the price, it’s a bit expensive for what it is (lunch in a box, a bit disappointed by the snorkeling spot, a bit too many people in the boat/ on the stops) Overall, it’s totally worth it for the beautiful landscape and the islands hopping experience.

Klasse Tour!! Wir waren auch 6 Stunden anstatt 4 stunden unterwegs… Viele Badestopps und ausreichend Zeit, gerne wieder!! Das ist kein Schnorchelausflug, nichts zu sehen, das war uns aber von vornherein klar… Alles top organisiert

Had a really nice day on the boattour which lasted even longer than the 4 hours mentioned. They take you to multiple islands with amazing beaches where you get plenty of time to explore and swim. Furthermore the lunch was very tasty and our boatcaptain even prepared some fresh fruit for us. Also transportation from our residence to the boat and back was taken care of. In general we had an amazing time, the views are great and the blue lagoon was the highlight for us! Very friendly staff which adds up to the experience. 110% worth the money! :)

For meget tid med at sejle og for lidt tid på de to øer vi besøgte. Desværre ingen mulighed for snorkling grundet højvande

Es war ein rundum sehr schöner Ausflug! Besonders haben uns die verschiedenen Badestops an den kleineren Inseln, Stränden bzw. auch in einer Bucht gefallen. Man konnte direkt vom Boot ins Wasser springen und sich abkühlen bei einer wunderschönen Aussicht. Außerdem gab es einen etwas längeren Stop gleich zu Beginn der Tour auf Hong Island, wo man auch hoch zum 360° Aussichtspunkt laufen konnte. Ein wenig schade war, dass wir beim Schnorchelstop nicht so viel sehen konnten, da die Sicht durch das trübe Wasser nur bedingt möglich war. Da das nicht unsere Hauptintension für diesen Ausflug war, fan

Wir hatten einen rundum gelungenen Tag beim Inselhopping. Hier sind die Punkte, die besonders überzeugt haben: • Pünktlichkeit: Die Abholung am Hotel war perfekt organisiert und überpünktlich. Man musste sich um nichts kümmern. • Verpflegung: Das Essen an Bord war wirklich sehr gut! Besonders die frischen Früchte waren super lecker und eine tolle Erfrischung zwischendurch. • Dauer: Mit über 4 Stunden hat man genau die richtige Mischung aus Action und Entspannung. Es hat sich zu keiner Zeit gehetzt angefühlt. • Preis-Leistung: Für diesen Preis bekommt man hier wirklich viel geboten. Alles war t

The dry season from November to April offers the best weather for island-hopping tours and beach activities.

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.

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.
