Awesome boat trip to see James Bond island, walk through a cave, see wild Monkey’s, visit a floating Thai village and lunch / beach on different islands. Multiple cool excursions throughout the day and the boat was great and powered right through any waves. Have done multiple private boat experiences in the Med as well, and the value here is excellent for the quality of the boat and tour.

Wow! What an amazing experience! We loved our guide Beer. He made sure our party of 14 (ages 17 to 84) are comfortable! We loved seeing the beautiful islands, kayaking through the caves, and visiting the floating village. They did everything right from pick up to customizing the itinerary based on our needs.

Wow! What personal friendly service from 5Star Jessica, Sun & Kip. Communication was perfect, we planned this trip for a year from where to pick up and what time to have us back on the cruise ship, help with exchanging money, and everything and more to what we agreed upon. Jessica helped us with everything, in and out of the boat, taking pictures of us, explaining movie set points of interest. We went canoeing inside caves and shame on me, I should have listened to her and took my good camera on the canoe, we did not get wet. It was beautiful! We went to James Bond island, man with the golden gun scenes, we ate a a little place on the water called Bean Rim Nam Yao Yao island, awesome Thai food with friendly people. And we even walked in a cave with bats and seen monkeys! It was an awesome tour and we were back on board the ship with time to spare. We felt pampered, safe and Jessica helped us old people in and out of the boat, stairs, and explained where we were going and what we were viewing. Very nice people and highly recommended!

Absolute marvel and true value for money.

Tatiana_C, Mar 2025

The best boat tour we’ve been to so far (and we do love cruising in every sea location we go). Hospitality, flexibility, comfort. The crew was very caring, welcoming, yet delicate. So it really felt private to our family of 3. The early start really makes sense as you avoid crowds and burning heat. We skipped walking around Gypsy village and chosen to go to the restaurant at the Coconut island. It was worth 10 out of 10.

A Great Experience with 5 Star Marine

Kathy_M, Mar 2024

5 Star Marine started coordinating with our group from the moment we made our reservation. Excellent communication and often. The tour itself was wonderful--beautiful scenery, fun activities and the guides really took care of us. Our group of 29 had people who wanted to order food from 5 Star and others who wanted to stop at the fishing village to go to a local restaurant. 5 Star made it happen and everyone was happy !

A must do in Phuket!

Alexandra_B, Mar 2023

This trip is a must!! I booked it as a private family (all adults) event for my birthday, and they did not disappoint! Our guide Andy was so knowledgeable about everything we experienced. We didn’t have any real plans when we got there and he made a plan for us that was truly amazing. Our captain, handled the boat like a champ, getting us some great close-ups to the amazing scenery. We kayaked, walked through caves, ate and shopped at the city on stilts and ended with a nice private (just happened that way) beach stay. The boat was tip top! They provided beverages and delish fruit and even surprised me with a small birthday cake. It was a truly amazing adventure with 5 Star Marine- one that will go beyond expectations.

5 Star Marine is truly 5 star!

Craig_L, Aug 2022

We took this full day tour and it was AMAZING! The boat was comfortable and well equipped- the kids were so happy to connect to Bluetooth so that we could enjoy music all day as well! The crew were awesome, explained everything a treated us like royalty. We truly felt like VIPs. And the experiences? Magical. We do family trips all over the world and my 11 year old nephew told me this was the single best day of any of the family trips. A truly unforgettable experience with a truly fantastic company. Couldn't recommend it more!!!!

Tour of a lifetime with 5 Star Marine

ANDRE_K, Aug 2022

Excellent communication to start with, preplanning and preparing was essential for successful trip and they nailed it. From the hotel pickup to hotel dropoff , and everything in between, this is a highly professional operation. The tour itself was outstanding, with my guide (Alex) going out of his way to accommodate and advice. I felt really special during the tour and it exceeded my expectations. High class service all the way!

Elvira_J, Jan 2020

La excursión muy completa, nos ha gustado mucho a toda la família, hemos pasado un día estupendo, los guías muy amables y atentos. Vale la pena hacerla. Sólo nos faltó bañarnos un poco más....que lo pudimos hacer al final del día.
