The best trip and best value. Amazing staff, amazing food. Full day of fun. I’ve done this tour three times and it’s worth it every time
Absolutely amazing tour. Even though the weather wasn't the best, we still had a wonderful day with Phuket Sail Tours. The crew did an amazing job making sure everyone had a great experience despite the conditions. One of the highlights was the food. Freshly cooked on board, it was a delicious smorgasbord of Thai dishes with plenty of variety and flavour. It was far beyond what we expected from a day tour. This wasn't my first tour with Phuket Sail Tours, but this time we brought family along with us. It was wonderful to see them enjoy the experience as much as we did. The relaxed atmosphere, beautiful scenery, and outstanding hospitality made for a memorable day for all of us. A big thank you to Captain Mark and the entire crew for another fantastic day on the water. We highly recommend Phuket Sail Tours and look forward to sailing with you again in the future.
So happy we booked this cruise thru Phuket Sail Tours! Unlike the other companies' boats that were packed with people, Captain Mark and his awesome crew keep their guest numbers smaller for a better experience. Typically 12-15 per cruis but we lucked out and got the whole boat to ourselves! The crew was amazing (our tour guide Anna, cook Cyndi, and paddleman Mei Mei among others) were great. The customer service was tremendous.. they kept the boat clean, put up shelter when it briefly rained, and you could just tell they wanted us to have the best experience. And the food.. wow, they just kept it coming.. lunchtime snacks (local fruit, fries, wings, eggrolls) and a freshly cooked dinner (grilled snapper, coconut curry, rice, salad, fried veggies). Highyl recommend!! Price was amazing for a small semi-private experience. Look at the rest but get this one if you can!
This tour was the highlight of our trip. Booking was done quickly and without hassle. Very personalised service, we got to see places the other big boats didn't go. The boat isn't overbooked like some of the other tours on offer. We enjoyed every minute and will book again when we return to phuket.
If you can do this tour, do not miss out on it. As a person in my 70s I was skeptical about the canoe and rowing, but just like it’s advertise I had my own guide who was phenomenal. The landscape, the caves, the lagoons, oh my gosh can’t say enough don’t miss this tour!!!
It was so much fun. The caves were awesome. Our paddle men were great. Joe was a great host. The food was delicious
We did the sunset boat tour of Phang Nga bay. The boat is very comfortable with only 12 people on board that day - so plenty of space . The crew was very helpful and did their best to make sure everyone had a great time. They provided vegetarian food which was much appreciated given that we had lunch and dinner on board. This is a great tour to do when in Phuket
Thank you Khun Laks. I am happy to read that you enjoyed our James Bond Golden Sunset big boat tour. It is the best way to see the best of Phang Nga Bay. Khun Cindy does a great job in the kitchen, I am glad you enjoyed the food. Vegetarian food is no trouble at all. Thank you for joining us. We hope to see you again next time you are here. Happy travels, Mark.
You will love this tour! One of the best boat tours we have been on. The staff, make this tour exceptional! Our tour guide Tom was very knowledgeable about the areas we stopped at. Our canoe rower Alex made sure we had an excellent experience going through the caves and he was always pointing out wildlife we would have missed without his keen eye. He took time to help us get some amazing photos. Thanks Alex! The scenery you will see is absolutely stunning. The food was plentiful and good. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset and after it got dark we went back to Panak Island and looked at the bioluminescent plankton. Every part of this tour was a treat and a wonderful memory we will treasure forever.
Hi Michele, it is lovely to read how much you enjoyed our big boat tour of Phang Nga Bay. Thank you for joining us, and thank you for the very nice review. Alex is a great guy, I am glad you had a good time with him. I hope we see you aboard again next time you are here. All the best, Mark, Alex and the crew.
Pregnant friendly arrangement, as long as you can manage a full day activity. Very beautiful trip.
We are friendly to everyone! Our big boat tours are ideal for pregnant mothers. Smooth ride, good protection from the weather, nice toilets (!) and all activities are easy and safe. Thank you Kristopher for the very nice review, and thank you for spending a day with us. I hope we see you aboard again next time you are in Phuket. All the best, Mark.
Great people, something you don’t find everyday. From the first contact by email everything was smooth, captain Mark, the boss, gave us any explanation on activities without being pushy. We booked two tours, the phi phi island sunset tour and Phang Nga bay sunset tour, the second coming with a discount. From pick up at the hotel to the tours everything was outstanding, they provide anything you need, gear , food, beverages, and most important their knowledge of the places. And then the fantastic thailand set makes the difference. TO BE HIGHLIGHTED: they tend to not have many guests on the boats so you don’t feel pressed, allowing to relax on board and creating a nice feeling prone to chat among guests. Being a local business, Mark is an australian living in Thailand from a long time and all the other people working are Thai , all the money goes to locals and they deserve it. Overall great value for money, the two tours were the highlights of our 10-days-holiday in Phuket.
Hello Galetto! Thank you for the very nice review, it means a lot to us. Thank you mostly for joining us while you were in Phuket. I am glad you got to take 2 tours with, Phi Phi and Phang Nga Bay are 2 very different experiences, and it is well worth doing both. I hope you enjoyed Phuket, and maybe we will see you aboard again some time. Happy travels, Mark and the crew.
