Everything went smoothly. The journey from open-aired van pickup to boat to islands and snorkeling was fun and enjoyable. The lunch on beach we sat on picnic tables, and food was adequate and delicious - rice, 1 meat, fried egg & fruits (pineapple & watermelon slices). We enjoyed and highly recommended to anyone who is holidaying in Krabi.

seamless pick up drop off, comfortable ride and journey and they took care of us to make sure we have enough water and that we got on and off the boats safely. longtail boats are also not rocky, no one was seasick!

Sunglasses, towels, tanning oil or sunscreen are essential items to bring. Otherwise, you will be in trouble. Cool water is provided unlimitedly, but the food is not bad! Island tours, snorkeling, and equipment are provided. The bioluminescent plankton may be disappointing, but I think swimming in the night sea is romantic and worth trying once.

The trip was overall enjoyable, with many highlights along the way. One of the standout moments was the barbecue experience. It was a perfect evening, combining delicious food with a stunning sunset. The combination of great company, flavorful dishes, and the breathtaking views created a memorable and relaxing atmosphere. Overall, it was a fantastic way to end the day and made the trip even more special.

Honestly, it was a great experience, but the weather wasn’t so kind to us. The guide was nice and very attentive. The places were beautiful, and the food was certainly delicious. It was a 10/10 experience, but it would have been 11/10 if it had been sunny and not rainy, haha. Thank you regardless!

Really amazing experience! Tour guides are extremely friendly and speak great English. The sea is so beautiful to swim in and you see loads of fish when snorkelling. The BBQ is good and they cater for vegetarians, and you get an amazing view of sunset. I will say, you don’t really visit 7 islands (e.g the first stop counts as 2) but it really doesn’t matter because the sights and the islands you do stop at are simply stunning. Overall a highlight of our trip so far (and we’ve been travelling for 2 months!!). I suggest not sitting at the front on the long tail boat as you will get soaked (we learned the hard way!!)
