Pleasant ride, nice crew, lot of pretty nature. Never stoppes by monkey beach though. Not really that much to do at Bamboo Island
Very sympathic crew! We took the half day and it was nice. Snorkeling around Bamboo island was just one of the best spot we have seen in Thailand!
Avoid this trip!! The overall experience was never worth the money paid. An over packed boat, times at stops were way shorter than advertised (by at least an hour), food served on the boat rather than bamboo island as advertised, rude host, late to pick up and early to drop off, and missed a key destination in the package. Overall I would suggest avoiding this package and book with someone else.
Enjoyable crew and good ocean conditions. Not as advertised! Left late after long wait; only 70 mins at Bamboo Island- promised 3 hours leisurely trip. Lunch box on boat, not beach. No Monkey Island - told its only for full day but it’s in 1/2 day description we paid for. Trip assumes experience and comfort with ocean, boats & snorkeling. No instructions nor safety briefings; not good for seniors/ less abled. Good views snorkeling!

The Company is just awful. In the description is says that the tour will start at 9.30 but when you talk to the tour operater all tours will start at 10.30 (ours even at 10.45). If you are trying to call the company, no one is answering, they respond after several hours on WhatsApp. Just book the tours up front on the island. The tour itself, was acceptable, 2 stars for that.

The boat trips themselves were nice, and the nature you automatically sail past is a breathless beauty. Unfortunately, the trip itself was a huge disappointment. We snorkled for 10 min a bit away from the coast, it was fine. Then followed a very long boat trip to a beach on bamboo island. It could badly be called a beach, just a short and narrow strip of sand. Here we had 40-50 minutes, which was ok, but we didn't have to snorkel. The place was a huge disappointment
It is quite a long boat ride to get to the island, about an hour each way. And only having 45-50 minutes at the island made it quite a journey. The place is stunning and I highly recommend going. The boat is quite noisy so prepare with headphones or don't sit right at the back next to the engine
Amazing experience. Saw tropical fish when snorkelling. Bamboo island beach was beautiful. Tour guides were really helpful and boat was parked in a place easy to find
The tour started 90 minutes late. The long tail boat was totally packed. Snorkeling time super short due to late departure and the spot was terrible. Bamboo island was beautiful but they did not bring the lunch to the island like other tour groups. We ate very hastily in the full boat. The boat broke down between Phi Phi and Bamboo island. Luckily the boat crew managed to fix the problem. I was happy that I did not join the others for a full day trip
It was a really nice trip, friendly staff, and nice island with good snorkeling, and some beach you could relax on
