Phi Phi Island Tour
Description
Experience an invigorating day at sea with a remarkable excursion to the stunning Phi Phi Islands, renowned as one of Thailand's most spectacular locations. In addition, you'll explore the Krabi 4 Islands and engage in an exciting snorkeling adventure.
Tour Overview
Your journey begins with a prompt pickup from your accommodation in Krabi, where you will then board a speedboat headed towards the popular Phi Phi Islands.
During the ride, you can unwind and capture photos of Krabi's mesmerizing coastline en route to Tup and Mor Islands, linked by a slender stretch of pristine sand visible only at low tide. Here, we will pause for a light breakfast.
Your next destination is the iconic Maya Bay, famous for its role in the film The Beach, featuring Leonardo DiCaprio. At Maya Bay, you'll have around 50 minutes to soak in the breathtaking views.
Afterward, we will proceed to Pileh Bay, where you can savor a leisurely swim in the sparkling waters and marvel at the vibrant hues of the Emerald Lagoon, encircled by towering cliffs.
The itinerary then takes us to the renowned Viking Cave, showcasing ancient Viking paintings and local shrines dedicated to the spirits residing within. Next, we will visit Monkey Bay, where you can enjoy the scenic vistas of the beach and spot the monkeys wandering about from the boat.
Continuing our journey, we will set sail for Nui Bay, celebrated as one of the best locations in the area for swimming, snorkeling, and discovering the vibrant coral reefs and diverse marine life. Once you’ve had your fill of the sea, we will make our way to Bamboo Island, where you can unwind on the beach and indulge in a delicious Thai lunch. Should Bamboo Island be inaccessible, an alternative arrangement will be made at a restaurant on Phi Phi Don.
After rejuvenating with lunch, we will speed to Chicken Island, known for its uniquely shaped rock formations.
Our final destination is Koh Poda, famous for its tranquil beaches and crystal-clear waters, perfect for relaxation.
At the end of this exhilarating day exploring the islands, we will return to Krabi, aiming to arrive at the pier between 3:45 pm and 4:00 pm. From there, a return journey to your hotel will conclude this approximately 9-hour activity, depending on your accommodation’s location.
