Wow! What a fantastic tour. Booked this to engage to my girlfriend. Our kind tour guides took us early at 7 AM to avoid the heat and the crowds. We had the entire cove at Lae Lading to ourselves to relax and take photos on the swing. We then headed to Hong Island to swim, then we had a picnic on a private beach just outside of Hong Lagoon where I popped the question. The picnic was great, as were our wonderful guides. They made sure to take plenty of photos and videos for us to ensure we had memories to remember. Definitely don’t hesitate booking with Neptune. We’re glad we did!

Maya bay was definitely best to go early, especially at this busy time of year, not too many there. Could have had less time at Poda, although we only had longer there due to low tide so couldn’t see the sea parting. Also really liked Bamboo Island for the snorkelling, we saw fish and Reef Sharks.

The journey typically begins in the afternoon, with a comfortable pickup from your accommodation.

I recently had the pleasure of enjoying a luxury cruise yacht experience in Krabi, and I can confidently say it exceeded all expectations. From the moment we stepped on board, everything was immaculate — the yacht was spotlessly clean, well-maintained, and beautifully appointed with modern amenities and elegant touches that gave it a truly high-end feel.
What made the trip even more memorable was the exceptional service. The staff were absolutely fantastic — professional, attentive, and warm throughout the entire journey. Dinner was a nice pad Thai serve with some fruits & dessert. Water is free & provided, beer goes for 100 baht per can & soft drinks 50 baht which is very very reasonable. They visit the island for sightseeing only and leaves around an hour for snorkeling, kayaking, paddle board. overall highly recommended great value
