We had an amazing day from start to finish. Nikom our tour guide was 5 star! Provided loads of information and was great to chat to and ask questions. Picked up in an air conditioned van with other lovely tourists from all over the world. They provided drinking water and sarongs for the monkey temple if needed. We then travelled on a long boat to the islands. The long boat operator seemed very experienced and at all times we felt safe. We glided through the calm waters of Phang Nga Bay, it was beautiful. Lunch was also provided which included a buffet of Thai and some Indian food. It was delicious. 10 out of 10, highly recommend this trip.

Very cool tour. Fun to do the kayaking around the islands.

If you’re near Phuket or north it’s not too bad if you’re in the south it’s quite some drive. Got there and got right into the long boat and headed out to the island. I think about a 40 minute drive through the mangroves out there very cool scenery. Once we got out to a meeting point near the island we jumped in a kayak with a guy who paddled you around and under a lot of caves From there we had lunch at basically a sand bar covered with umbrellas and restaurants. Its a pretty cool place though. highly recommend.

Once in a lifetime experience

Fantastic experience. Well organised. Great guide. Good value for money. Travel to destination took some time

It was okay

Mursheda_C, Jun 2019
I must say it was a very long day and we did not expect to spend most of it in the car. The first stop which s the Monkey cave as almost a three hour drive from Phuket which took up the entire morning. There was no clear indication or plan communicated for the day until much later in the afternoon so you are sat in the car wondering where your going and what is happening. The condition of the vehicle was not in a good state and the driver was driving very dangerously. When we started the tour on the long boat, this was enjoyable however you make a stop for lunch, then James Bond Island then for kayaking in different islands. It all seemed rushed and crammed in to three hours in the afternoon before we started the three hour journey back to Phuket again. Food was provided in a comfertable setting allowing rest and access to great food. Was not relaxing at all.

Started out slow, but got better throughout the day. The best parts were canoeing and then the James Bond Island Tour.

Leider sind die Zeichen zu kurz für eine ausführliche Bewertung. Zusammenfassung: - Fahrer sprach/verstand kein einziges Wort englisch - Wir saßen exakt 4Std.im Auto, für eine Strecke die lt. Google Maps 1:37Std.dauert weil sich der Fahrer ständig verfuhr - Massentourismus Kurzum:Nicht zu empfehlen!
