Travel to the islands is via a large boat (~30 people on each tour). You then kayak though the caves and into the lagoons on inflatable sea kayaks (2 people plus one guide per kayak). The guide does the paddling, however there is an opportunity to kayak by yourself during the trip (but not through the caves). The trip includes... more

We would highly recommend the Hong by Starlight trip. We had a wonderful time - the guides were knowledgeable, friendly and great at spotting wildlife, the food was delicious (from the warm home-made banana cake as you stepped out of the canoe to the tasty Thai dinner), and the trip was well-organised and well-run. The caves were much more challenging... more

it was definitely the highlight of our Phuket trip. The sea caves were awe inspiring and the releasing of the kratongs at night was a beautiful experience. The guides were so hospitable and the food was simply delicious. I also think that it is very commendable how knowledgeable and respectful towards nature our guides were. A definite MUST DO whilst... more

Wow! This was one of the most memorable events that we did in Thailand! I did not know what to expect but John Gray and his crew treated us to one of the best times of our life. Some of the best thai food we had was on this trip itself, cooked by the local crew. This is something you... more

We have been on sea canoe in Phang Nga before, and while this trip doesn't cover the most caves, the night cave trip and the offering, along with the skill and exuberance of the guides and the wonderful cookery on board the boat make it the best sea cave canoeing trip and worth twice the price! more

We are so glad we listened to our friends and went with this particular company as we saw other similar tours and theirs didnt seem nearly as well organised as ours. Right from the start the trip was enjoyable and the lunch, afternoon tea and sumptuous buffet dinner was superb. We even made our kratong offerings which was fun.I havent... more

A friend booked this trip for myself and some fellow travelers. I was not really aware of the nature of the trip until we actually boarded the boat and it was explained that we were going out to those limestone mountains that I saw when flying into Phuket. Well I was in for an amazing trip that in and of... more

I went on this trip on the 20th of Sep, 09. The weather was perfect. We had John Gray himself on the trip. He was great, starting with the briefing, the details of the hong and the ecosystem there. My 10 year old son enjoyed himself thouroughly, feeding the hawks, trying a hand at canoeing, making the kratong and the... more
