Amazing day
Absolutely amazing day with Mac and the team
The tour was well organized with plenty of time at each location to enjoy the stunning views.
Being vegan, sometimes the food provided is not great but the buffet lunch on this trip was superb, loads of choice and really tasty.
All in all a fantastic trip and I couldn't recommend highly enough
Operator response
💚 We are thrilled that Mac and the team delivered a well-organized day with plenty of time to enjoy those stunning views. And we're especially delighted that the vegan options in our buffet lunch were superb and tasty! Thank you for the high recommendation!

Excellent day out even with rain!
Excellent trip. We were advised pick up time the night before and the driver was on time and safe. Guide was friendly, fun, helpful and informative. Despite the heavy rain at the start it was a great day out with an excellent buffet lunch on the floating island. We saw everything on the itinerary and the boat was not crowded like some in Thailand. We highly recommend this trip.
Operator response
We’re thrilled to hear you had such a great day despite the rain! It’s wonderful that the guide, buffet, and uncrowded boat made your experience enjoyable, and we appreciate your recommendation.

Canoe, Bond james, floating village, cave and beach
Nice experience. Lovely crew and very cool excursion. I remove a star because the pick-up price at the hotel while half an hour away is quite abusive almost matching the price of the excursion.
Operator response
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for joining our tour! 😊
We mention the pick-up cost in the product description so guests know in advance. The fee goes directly to the taxi driver.
So glad you enjoyed the trip and our crew!

Amazing experience
From the point of pickup to our return, the entire trip was AMAZING. Mac on our speedboat and the crew were attentive and fun. This trip was well planned down to the minute. Our stop for lunch was really great...I loved the floating village (great prices in the little shops you can bargin). Canoeing was even better than I can describe. I feel blessed to experience this trip and see such amazing places. I HIGHLY recommend this trip to anyone visiting Phucket.
Operator response
That's absolutely wonderful to hear! We're thrilled you had such an amazing experience from start to finish, and we'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Mac and the entire crew. It sounds like every aspect, from the planning to the floating village and canoeing, was truly special for you. Thank you so much for highly recommending us – it means a lot!

Definitely worth it. Great day.
The tour was very good. The guide, Mac, was excellent, very good English, great tips and explainations. The canoeing was the best part and would have loved to do more of this. James Bond island is very busy. The only part was the cost for private transfer as we were not staying near Patong. Next time we would book our own car via Bolt app.
Operator response
Thank you for your feedback! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour and especially the canoeing. Mac is indeed a fantastic guide, and we appreciate you highlighting his excellent English, tips, and explanations.
We understand your point about James Bond Island being busy – it's a popular spot! we appreciate you sharing your experience with using Bolt for transportation next time.
