After 12 years designing and developing one of the World's most highly awarded Ecotourism companies, John "Caveman" Gray goes his own way by forming "John Gray's SeaCanoe" with 18 of his most loyal and experienced guides. "After 12 years in Phuket, the experiment ran its course and I was packing for Polynesia," says Gray, "but when all these guides showed up, I had no choice but to stay and do another start-up."

Our guide Tom was brilliant, very informative and a lovely person. We were given flowers as we were celebrating our 17th wedding anniversary which was a lovely touch.
The caves and the whole experience is...

At first we were not sure about this considering the price, but we are glad that we went for the tour, we enjoyed it very much. I think the dinner itself would have cost us one-third of the tour fees if we were to have it at a local restaurant.
The guides speaks good English, have a good sense of...

Environment focused and were able to share local experience. Seeing the dinoflaggents in the last cave was truly magical. An awesome ex pence as we squeezedthough the caves to come...

Thanks for the great review.
We are all about Enlightened Human resources. Our local guides select other locals to be in the team - I do not force a "hire". And we have a good time - the guides gave me the name "Ling Yai" (Thai for Big Monkey") and they get to paddle SOTAR kayaks of my design -...

My husband and i went on the startlight tour and loved it! The staff was very knowledgable and friendly- especially Keyo, our kayak guide. We first arrived at the dock and took a large boat to the first cave. The ride took about one hour but was slow and steady. They served a light lunch during our trip there- thai...

Thanks for the nice review. You obviously enjoyed Hong By Starlight-but that's just the intro trip. Next time you might consider an overnight trip. Pure magic and our equipment and meals are as good as Hong By starlight - maybe better!

There is even an hours span where you can do as you wish either...

This was my 3rd time doing this trip. And what an experience....a rainy one!! The rain did not damper our spirits nor the guide or the whole John Gray's canoe crew. They were fantastic in lifting our spirits and making it light with their humour in their briefing.
Everything worked like clock work...from the time we depart from the pier,...

An absolute must do if you haven't already!
Staff were happy and friendly, the main guide was always smiling and funny.
They enforced my appreciation toward the thai culture.
The food was delicious and plenty of it.
The scenery was breathtaking, the caves were tight with my aussie beer belly but stunning each time, and even though it was raining...
