Full description

This is a 9-hour experience in Phuket, built around Royal Phuket Marina, Speedboat and Khai Nai Island. It is run by V. Marine Tour, 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.

Arashiyama, on Kyoto's western edge, is the bamboo grove, the Togetsukyo bridge over the Katsura river, the gardens of Tenryu-ji and the monkey park on the hill above. The bamboo path is about 500 metres and is photographed empty in every guidebook because those photographs are taken before 7:30; by mid-morning it is a procession. Rickshaw runs, the Sagano scenic railway along the gorge, and boat rides down the Hozu rapids all start here. Autumn colour peaks in the second half of November and cherry blossom around the first week of April.

The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off in Phuket, Light breakfast on Khai Nai, Seaview buffet lunch, Restroom onboard and Accident insurance. It does not cover Alcoholic drinks, 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.

Phuket. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with V. Marine Tour before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

this was the most beautiful part of our whole vacation. we booked for the sunrise tour but due to the rain we had a change of plans and we were switched to the speedboat full day tour instead which was no problem to us! this tour provided the most snacks, drinks, and anything you needed out of any tour we did in our two weeks in thailand! we got to see so many beautiful islands, and true beauty stood in each of them. if you have time on your trip please book this tour you will not regret it at all. all the guides we’re so kind and attentive, and wanted you to have the best time possible. the b

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing speedboat tour to Phi Phi & Bamboo Island! Wild and his crew were super friendly, respectful and made us feel very comfortable throughout the trip. There were always snacks, water and even Coke Zero available. The boat was modern, very clean and not sandy or slippery, as everyone took off their shoes before boarding. We could safely leave our bags on the boat while enjoying the different stops, some of them with snorkeling. The lunch buffet on a small island was delicious, with plenty of choices like Pad Thai, fish soup, vegetables, salad, fruit and cake & a beautiful view! 🌴 The

One of the best experiences! They give you enough time at each island and watching the sunrise was amazing! Even snorkeling and having some free time was fun! Would definitely do it again!

Best day of our time in Phuket! We managed to dodge the busy crowds, seeing the gorgeous beaches which we had enough time at each one. We were fed breakfast and lunch which was delicious, as well as free drinks along the way and fruit. Loved this tour!

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 alcoholic drinks. 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 Phi Phi Sunrise Boat Tour to Bamboo and Khai Island is typically 9 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.

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.

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.

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.
