Be aware of changes not mentioned by Viator
Be aware that if tide is low or windy you may NOT board ferry by ramp etc and will be taken to west beach to wade to longtail where no help to get into boat then have to step across gap from moving boat to ferry, ok for us but if you are nervous or have mobility issues could be traumatic

A convenient option for getting from Railay Beach to Ko Phi Phi. The ferry was scheduled to arrive at 9:45 AM and showed up about 15–20 minutes late, but nothing major. Since the ferry can’t dock at Railay due to shallow water, a long-tail boat takes passengers from the East Railay floating pier out to meet it. The transfer process worked fine, though it was a little chaotic and could be tricky if you’re traveling with small children, as you need to climb between the long-tail and the ferry. Overall, a simple and mostly stress-free way to make the trip.

Railay to phi phi
Good organized travel.
Got a much bigger boat compared to the pictures, which gives the opertunity to upgrade to a VIP class when coming onboard for 200bht each. AC, toilets and a shop onboard.

Quick, cheap transfer between Railay and Phi Phi
The boat was 30 minutes late and was over sold, so many people were left without a seat or space inside out of the sun. The ferry was quick and staff were friendly.
Operator response
Dear Jeremy
Thanks for your review. During Songkran there is always a huge demand especially from Thai guests, and this lead to a bottleneck on a few days during April.

Fast and simple
Some people could not use the service properly and the crew tried really hard to solve the issues. The small boats that took us to the ferry was slightly confusing as from about 20 boats we only used 3 or 4 but those were not different from the other ones at all.
Apart from this the trip was simple and peaceful, the scenery was beautiful.

<p>The trip itself was ok. The only problem is that they have changed the exit port to the other side of the island, and I had to change my plans and logistics. They said that was about the weather, but at the day it was ok and other boats were leaving from the correct side.</p>
