Viking Cave is one of the most notable sites on Koh Phi Phi Leh. Located at the bottom of a tall limestone cliff on the northeastern side of the island. It is also a the hunting/harvesting of swiftlet birds’ nests. We will stopping there for taking some photos.
Monkey Beach is located on the southwestern side of Tonsai Bay, about 700m from the Phi Phi Don - Main Island. It is a simply stunning 150m-long strip of white powdery sand fringed by emerald water. The backside of the beach is a rather steep limestone cliff, covered with lush vegetation that offers monkeys a comfortable habitat, which is where it gets its name from. We will be taking some photos of the wild monkey reside on the beach. - Snorknalling

Have always wanted to do this tour. Opted in this holiday and it was a great day. Early start (7am), taxi to the Marina. Complimentary breakfast. A long (2 hour) boat ride but we chose to upgrade to Gold Seat - definitely worth the $$$. Did the snorkelling, good lunch then a little shopping and a couple of beers before the journey home. Good service, great staff, have ticked it off the bucket list. Would certainly recommend.
Not recommended, the ship's huge cold, which can freeze people cold, the crew said the temperature cannot be adjusted. This ticket can only sit in the cabin to blow cold air, to see the view has to be upgraded to the second floor vip, 800 baht per person, the second floor can go outside, the third floor is light deck, there is no place to even sit. When you get there, change into a speedboat and snorkel, the snorkeling experience is poor, the water is muddy. Lunch was fine after we got to shore, then we went to the beach, and the guide didn't remind us to come back. When we got back to the boat we were gone and had to spend another 500 baht alone to come back. There was no need to listen to the guide before boarding the boat to buy water, the experience was poor anyway.
Pick-up was provided to and from our hotel in Patong although it wasn't on the list. At the port, we were offered an upgrade for a sitting area with massage chairs and coffee, tea, and water for an additional fee. The crew communicated especially well and everything was smooth in terms of transferring from the boat to island to snorkel to island for lunch and back on the boat. Note that the water is very active during the week of the full moon. No complaints or regrets.
