プーケットからフェリー＆スピードボートでクラビの4島を巡る日帰りツアー

I booked the Day Tour from Phuket to 4 Islands in Krabi by Ferry & Speedboat through TripAdvisor/Viator (provided by Trip Store Krabi & operated by Ao Nang Travel & Tour), and unfortunately, it turned out to be one of the worst travel experiences I’ve had. The boats used by Ao Nang Travel & Tour are extremely old and broken, and the staff from Ao Nang Travel & Tour were rude, dismissive, and barely able to communicate in English. The actual travel time was nearly 5 hours, while sightseeing was only about 1.5 hours. Out of the four islands promised, two were only shown from the boat, and we actually set foot on just two islands. The stop taken by Ao Nang Travel & Tour at Chicken Island for lunch was particularly disappointing. The arrangements were made at a single small hut-like restaurant with no water to wash hands, foul-smelling toilets in terrible condition, and a very rude staff member. Lunch consisted of only 2–3 items in limited quantity, and even the speedboat didn’t carry enough drinking water for all passengers. That's only hotel available and the only option you have in this case. We started at 8:15 AM from Phuket in a van, reached the pier, and then transferred to Ao Nang before heading to the islands. By 2:00 PM, the tour was essentially over, with most of the time wasted in transit rather than sightseeing. This tour is misleading and poorly managed. They should either stop running it altogether or redesign it to include proper visits to all four islands and include some more spots for sight seeing, better food arrangements at decent hotels (like those near Phang Nga Caves offered by other operators), and replace the broken boats with safer ones. The responsibility for this disappointing experience lies squarely with Ao Nang Travel & Tour, the operator of the tour. TripAdvisor, Viator, and Trip Store Krabi should take immediate action to replace this vendor with a more reliable partner, redesign the itinerary to include genuine visits to all four islands with proper facilities, and only then continue offering it. Otherwise, the tour should be discontinued altogether.

Terrible from start to finish, 1) only did 2 island due to weather conditions, no snoring due to weather condition, total waste of my time , food was passable, transport home was an absolute nightmare, 3 couples coming from Krabi to stay in new hotels in Patong , obviously i was last off 😡, got back to my accommodation at 7.20 pm , waste of day , would not recommend as this seems to happen a lot , easy money for the agent

A fun adventure around the beautiful islands of Krabi, with some of the most breathtaking beaches and scenery around.

Hotel pickup by Van and dropped at Pier. From Pier in Phuket in big A/c boat travelled to Krabi for around ~ 2 Hours. From there another speed boat took us to Poda Island and we were allowed to spend time in island for an hour (activities). Then they took us to chiken island where we were offered lunch (Not a great one but with very limited items). Post lunch we were there allowed for 30 to 40 minutes and then a 5 min drive to last island were we were allowed for 30 to 40 minutes and we did snorkeling. Then return another 2 hours drive and dropped at Phuket Pier and Hotel Drop by Van

Highly recommended,staff were great,food and beverages was great,the islands were amazing,crystal blue waters great for snorkelling

I booked this last minute when my other Krabi experience canceled. It was 1/3 of the price with 10x the people. Transfer from Patong was fine, but I wasn’t well coordinated so you’re just dropped off a the ferry terminal and don’t really know what to do next. If you find the desk and can get checked in you get on the ferry and then need to make sure you get off a the right stop before you switch to the speed boat. But omg do the pack that speedboat, I was getting absolutely crushed all day with the number of people packed in there. If you’re not lucky enough to get inside you’re left to fry in the sun at the front of the boat. The stops were good, amount of time spent at them was good. However. The food wasn’t good and there wasn’t nearly enough for everyone so you will need to bring or by snacks yourself. Snorkeling really wasn’t, I had to ask for fins which they gave me their personal pair but didn’t have them for anyone else. They also ended up telling us they “ran out” of water even though you could clearly see it under the seats which was very weird. This tour was also way longer than stated, it was over 12 hours and caused me to miss my dinner reservation on my last night.

Great hosts and guides. Good personalities that makes the trip enjoyable and fun. The trip itself overall was perfect.

This was a brilliant experience to see all the islands via speedboat with the right amount of time on islands to explore go swimming and snorkelling. Mr Tu and his crew were very informative and gave us full breakdown of travel between islands safety on and off boat also provided lunch water and fresh fruit. Unfortunately our pick up was 20/30 mins late and when you get to pier it is a cattle market but they are relatively well organised getting you on boats and travel to and from hotel and issue you with a wrist band for ID. Unless you have a couple of idiots one who threw his band away because it was itching his wee wrist whilst swimming and threw it away in the water 🤷‍♂️(French) I hope you got made to pay your 100 baht fine even though you argued the toss and again a couple of people that don’t return to meeting point and make own way to boat whilst everyone stands in baking sun waiting on you then when challenged kid on no speak English (Chinese) Well worth a visit and would recommend it to anyone I take my hat off to Thai guides who have to deal with some of these idiots who are just downright rude and ignorant and at end of trip can’t get away quick enough so they don’t have to tip for a great service.

Great day highlighted by Chicken Island, beautiful waters, nice lunch setting and guides were outstanding. Paradise found!

The tour was good but it was only 3 islands instead of 4 islands as was stated in the tour itinerary! The pick up was early by 25 min…. Perchance I was ready or else ?! More swimming time and lunch could be given at Poda island . There should be better and more changing rooms at poda island Overall a great tour 👍🏻
