So Disappointed!

Not what I expected at all. The boat was full. 36 people. Only 4 allowed to sit in front area and the same 4 hogged it the whole trip. Windows coloured and seating low so could not see anything until you arrived at your destination. Loads of other boats doing same route so you same with at least 150 other people. Talk about scaring the fish!! Maya Beach was beautiful after the frog march onto and off the island and the guard on the beach blowing his whistle and yelling through megaphone to keep out of the water. As for the final island that we stopped at for fruit etc. DREADFUL. Dirty, rubbish everywhere, small polluted by boat oil area to swim in. Neglected cats everywhere. To say I hated the trip is an understatement. The only good part, Dino and his staff. Very helpful and friendly. Would I recommend, sorry NO.

Total Chaos!!

If I could give this experience zero stars, I would. The photos on the website are vastly different from reality. We were switched to a different tour than the one we signed up for and packed onto a boat with 30 other people. We were told the it was “an upgrade” but I think they miscalculated the number of passengers on the trip we signed up for so they stuck us on a trip with a larger group. Every site was packed with tour boats and if you wanted to get closer to see the sites, you had to pay an additional 400 Bhat per person to get on a Longboat to take you. (If you opted not to take the Longboat, you sat on the Speedboat for 45 minutes while the longboat passengers went through the narrow passage to see the sites.) The boat congestion was worse than New York City rush hour. There is no visibility from inside the “speedboat”. The windows were high enough to prevent any viewing of the scenery but they did allow us to be drenched by ocean spray on the way out and back. One tour operator spoke Spanish and one had very broken English. At our last stop, there were 3-4 foot waves. Our boat collided with another boat as we anchored. We were told we could swim if we wore life jackets. As a life long boater, I can say that the conditions were too rough and dangerous and that island should have been skipped. We did not see any monkeys on Monkey Island and we were told that they “must be on the other side of the island today.” And for the finale-when we were picked up in a van in the morning at our hotel, we had a 25 minute boat ride to the marine. However, on our return, we were driven around Phuket for two hours before finally threatening to leave the van to find a taxi to make our way home. I have used Viatour for years and have never had a bad experience but yesterday was AWFUL!!! So disorganized and disappointing.

Not recommended

It really is a race against time!.. you haven’t breathed or enjoyed the place when it’s time to go. Fatal lunch. The boat swims like I show you in the picture. It's a speedboat and you have to get there fast, no matter if the passengers are pounding.

Enjoyable

The tour was very enjoyable and the team was very helpful. We loved visiting all the amazing places. Beautiful scenery, swimming and snorkeling in the lagoons. Please note that the rainy season is from May to end October and the speedboat crossing was fine going but very rough on the way back. So much so 75% of the people were sick and we had to leave the last stop out. The waves were bigger than the boat. Not for the faint hearted.

Operator response

Dear AzureTravel100, Thank you for your insightful review. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the beauty of the Phi Phi Islands and found our team helpful. Your note about the rainy season will guide future guests. We apologize for the rough sea conditions on the return trip and hope it didn't mar your overall experience. Your safety and comfort are our priorities. We hope to welcome you back on calmer seas! Best Regards,

Good trip

Well organised and good value for the money. Nice guide, speaks English very well. The last part of the trip, the small island where it’s very hot and you can’t swim, pure waste of time and energy. If you skip that part then you can avoid traffic as well.

Best way to spend the day

From having the best animators who take care of all the details, the logistics where nothing escaped, to visiting the perfect locations. I recommend this experience to everyone 🙏
