Description
Visit the pristine island of Phang Nga Bay from Krabi, where adventure and thrill-seeking water activities await in James Bond Island. Enjoy approximately 30 minutes of canoeing at Koh Talu on the shimmering waters through limestone caves and mangrove forests. The gorgeous island is widely known as one of the film sets for the James Bond movie, The Man with the Golden Gun, filmed in 1974 and starred Roger Moore. To this day, the island's emerald sea, towering isles coated in lush vegetation, and well-preserved beaches, caves, and villages are still intact, heavenly, and beautiful – just like in the Bond film. Hop in on a relaxing long-tail boat ride and sightsee your way to the island's attractions including Suwannakhuha Temple, Panyee village, and Lot Cave. Enjoy an included buffet lunch during the tour. Complete with hotel transfers and a professional, friendly English-speaking guide, this tour is just what you need for that island vacation you've been dreaming of.

Itinerary
This is one of the main attractions on tours of Phang Nga Bay, often serving as a lunch stop. With the increasing number of tourists, a number of seafood restaurants are present on the island, as well as various stalls selling souvenirs. In addition, their legendary football team's old pitch serves as a major attraction.
Wat Suwan Kuha - Cave Temple
The locals call it Wat Tham, (which means the temple cave). The temple, built inside a cave has historical, theological and archeological value and is a popular site amongst local people as well as tourists.
James Bond Island
James Bond Island is a famous landmark in Phang Nga Bay. It first found its way onto the international tourist map through its starring role in the James Bond movie, The Man with the Golden Gun. A distinctive trait of this famous bay is the number of sheer limestone cliffs that vertically jut out of the emerald-green water. The bizarre – why-doesn’t-it-fall-over – outline of James Bond Island or Koh Tapu ('nail island' in Thai), lies next to the equally popular Koh Ping Ghan (sometimes spelled as Ping Gan or Ping Gun). The entire area surrounding this island is indeed spectacular.
Ko Khao Phing Kan
Khao Phing Kan or Ko Khao Phing Kan is an island in Thailand, in Phang Nga Bay northeast of Phuket. About 40 metres from the shores of Khao Phing Kan lies a 20-metre tall islet called Ko Ta Pu or Ko Tapu. The islands are limestone karst towers and are a part of Ao Phang Nga National Park.
Sightseeing Khao Khien and Khao Maju
