Excellent activity. Our guide Toy was amazing taking care of us during the day. I only wish we had a little more time in Koh Tub and Phra Nan we only had 30-40mins. Because by the time we wait for everyone to disembark the boat you've already lost 10mins. Other than that the islands are beautiful and a must visit!

Toy, our guide was great. We left early and arrived at the beaches ahead of the crowds which was lovely as it gets quite busy. Plenty of chilled water and the food was good! The scenery is amazing, we were very lucky with the weather but I cannot recommend this enough!

We had an amazing experience on this tour, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, Toy. She was incredibly organized and kept everything running smoothly from start to finish. Thanks to her excellent planning, we were one of the first boats out, which meant we avoided the crowds and had a much more peaceful experience. There was plenty of time for swimming and snorkeling, and everything stayed right on schedule. The tour itself was fantastic and very well-priced. Overall, a great value and highly recommended!
