Additional Info
Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries
Not recommended for pregnant travelers
Not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
Thailand's Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation will close Maya Bay every year for 2 months in August and September.
Notable rules at Maya Bay include no swimming, no single-use plastics, using reef-safe sunscreen and no use of drones without permission.
While Monkey Beach isn't a direct stop, you can still observe the monkeys when the tide is low.
Don't feed the monkeys as it makes them aggressive and stops them from foraging for food as they would normally do.
During certain seasons, jellyfish may be present in the Andaman Sea, and contact can cause skin irritation or discomfort. To minimize the risk, we recommend wearing protective clothing such as watershoes and long swimwear when swimming.
Ensuring your safety is our top priority. To that end, we strongly recommend wearing a life jacket throughout the entire boat ride to the islands and while snorkeling.
Speed boats navigate close to the shoreline, allowing passengers a convenient and effortless transition to the beach.
While flip-flops are convenient, water shoes offer better protection against sharp objects like shells or rocks on the sand, and provide improved traction on wet surfaces.
Shorts are ideal as they dry quickly and allow for greater freedom of movement, especially if the water level reaches above your knees when getting on or off the boat.
This tour is not recommended for pregnant women, infants under 2 years, people over 69 years or people with back or neck problems.
If you want to switch your hotel in Khao Lak we charge an extra fee of 300 THB per person.

5.00Operator recommended by the resort proved to be an excellent choice. Organized, friendly and professional, we were pampered from start to finish with snacks and drinks. The hike really deserves for heavenly stages. Absolutely recommended!
Poor value for money would not recommend

1.00The tour started with an ontime pick up from Saii Hotel however due to normal traffic congestion it took over an hour to reach the Royal Phuket Marina. The registration process went well but the briefing was inaudible due to the sound system and heavy accent presenter. The staff were all very good at all times getting to the boat and during the tour. Soft drinks, water and refreshments mainly fruit were frequently given out. However there was no safety briefing on the boat or how the life jacks were used or obtained, though there were some lying on the seats albeit insufficient. The first leg was a high speed run for over an hour with very noise twin engines which registered “could do damage to ears” from apple phone recording. The first stop was Bamboo Islands described as enjoy swimming, snorkeling and relax on white sandy beech. What happened, snorkelling was not possible due to the number of people in such a small area so it was cancelled after 35 minutes of hanging about, we were all ushered back on board. In summary a complete waste of time. Next we went to monkey island we stayed on board to watch monkeys on shore and the climb the rocks for about fifteen minutes. We then went to Phi Phi Leh island, the snorkelling here was good there were quite a few jelly fish which we were assured were harmless to be fair no one was stung. We had about forty five minutes here. I would give this an OK. This was followed by Pileh Lagoon this was advertised as where you can go swimming, jumping in turquoise lagoon and cliff caves. We went there but none of the activities were allowed due to the colour of the water and sheer number of boats other reasons were given but essentially nothing happened. A total waste of time. We now went to lunch at Phi Phi Don Island getting off the boat and on to shore was extremely hazardous due to the landing area having collapsed. Loose and steep broken pieces of concrete had to be navigated. Lunch was very good plenty of it and easy to find seating once again the staff were excellent. We had about fifty minutes which was just about enough time but relaxing on the beach and sightseeing around the island was not possible. Another broken promised advertised activity. Now for the biggest waste of time ever not a person on the boat had anything else to say. The Maya Bay visit where the film “The Beach” was made. Literally it was overrun by people, even if there was something worth seeing. Roughly an hour was spent on this exercise. The biggest waste of a beautiful day I could not have imagined. This was followed by another noisy ride of over an hour back to the Marina. Followed by another hour in traffic jams back to our hotel. I will say no more needless to say I would not recommend this tour.
Great time!

5.0010/10 🌟 trip!!! Staff were amazing, so welcoming, attentive and fun!! The price of the trip was great! I lost count of how many stops we made, either to explore islands swim, or snorkel. The price also included breakfast , lunch, snacks, and drinks (not just water either!). Couldn't have asked for a better Phi phi Island tour! Thank you to Pong and his team for making it a great day!
Amazing experience from start to finish. Great service, beautiful atmosphere, and memories to cherish.

5.00Very good organization by Andaman! You will be picked up by a taxi from them to their reception room with a light breakfast. There everything is very structured by means of a briefing presented by Timi (top guest), who was also our supervisor during the excursion. Then left on a boat trip to the beautiful phi phi islands. No hurry, no rush, they give you plenty of time on each island to walk around. In the afternoon very nice lunch on Phi Phi Don Island and then continue this cruise to the Viking Cave to finish at Monkey Beach. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Best guys up there

5.00We were a bit apprehensive about booking this trip as we have two young children who have never snorkelled before. However it really was an incredible experience and our 7 year old described it as “the best day of his life”. So many beautiful locations (they are as stunning as the pictures you see online suggest) and the staff were exceptionally good with our boys…they felt really safe and during the second snorkelling stop were off the back of the boat without us and off hunting for sharks with the staff! We cannot thank the staff enough for how they interacted with them and kept them beside them in the water which allowed us to relax and enjoy our own snorkelling time too. I think this was one of those experiences which will shape their confidence to explore other water-based experiences in the future. Also to mention - we were offered the option to pay extra to go on a longtail boat to explore Pileh Lagoon - this is not to be missed and the staff with us got amazing photos and videos of us there and let us jump from the boat and swim in the lagoon which was breathtaking. We appreciated all of the care and safety of the staff - thank you so much!!!
Stunning beaches & Superb snorkelling experience!

4.00We had an amazing snorkelling experience, especially for my eldest, as it was her first time. The staff were incredibly helpful and patient, assisting us in overcoming our water confidence and ensuring we enjoyed the entire experience. The ride to the snorkeling spot was comfortable, and the food provided was delicious. I was also pleased to find a proper ‘prayer room’ at Phi Phin Villa during our lunch stop, which made the experience even more memorable. I would definitely love to stay at this accommodation on a future visit!
