    Highly recommend this tour!
    Amazing views and definitely worth the early start! James Bond island is so quiet when you get there, and the lunch was delicious too. Really worthwhile trip!

    Good short tour
    I really liked that it was a half day and it wasn’t like wasted time. It was exactly what it’s advertised for. We couldn’t do one snorkelling spot as the sea was too rough although I totally understand that wasn’t the tours fault. I liked the cat island because I love cats.

    Beautiful Phi Phi 🏝️
    Fantastic day trip with ALP from start to finish. One 40 something, a 19 year old and a 17 year old. Tony was our guide, he and the crew were lovely throughout. Highlight for me has to be the nostalgic first view of Maya Bay. The islands are just beautiful and not as busy as I had thought (granted we are at the end of rainy season, not that you’d know ☀️)

    Only comment I’d make is for those with a little motion sickness to preempt a bumpy ride home as the winds and waves pick up a little in the afternoon. Sturgeon did the job for us.

    Epic Relaxing and Awe Ispiring Day in Pha Nga Bay
    Simba Sea Trips runs a class act!!! Five star service on everything we did at Pha Nga Bay. Harry was super informative and provided luxury service for all our requests. The bay islands are awe inspiring and the varied activities (kayak ride, cave tour, James Bond Island, gorgeous beach/ sandbar experiences) where all done at a laid back and relaxed pace allowung us to enjoy the peace and extraordinary beauty of this unique setting. The beauriful, seaside restaurant that Simba picked for lunch was AMAZING!! Simba knows how to do things right, starting early enough to avoid the throng of tourists that visit these beautiful islands every day. THANK YOU PAUL, HARRY, and the rest of the amazing staff at Simba Sea Trips... we can't wait to bring friends and call on you again for more incredible sea adventures in Thailand!

    Kph Yao Noi two day kayak trip
    We did a two day kayak trip with Paddle Asia, day one exploring the lesser visited limestone karsts and small coves and beaches just north of Koh Yao Noi including a surprise visit into an hidden lagoon where all we could hear was the oysters popping closed, and we could see monkey foot marks in the sand. The second day visited remote mangrove lined gorges in the north of the bay well off the beaten path with stunning scenery, we saw nobody apart from distant fishing boats and the sense of peace was wonderful.
    Our guide was knowledgeable and informative, but also allowed us the freedom to paddle at our own speed and gave us space to enjoy such a special place. He also had a genuine love of his home area and was concerned about threats such as plastic pollution, it was great to see a company happy to pick up rubbish from the beaches we visited and who provided the lovely lunches in reusable containers no throw away plastic which is such a huge problem in Asia.
    Koh Yao Noi is a lovely island with genuinely friendly people, I would highly recommend a stay if you re visiting the area.

    Wonderful Dives & Amazing Island Vibes
    If you’re looking for a dive experience that’s cool yet flawlessly organized, Elixir Divers on Koh Yao Yai is the place to be.

    First off, communication with Igor via WhatsApp was quick and easy, very professional and super helpful. From the moment you reach out, everything is handled smoothly and efficiently.

    The guides are amazing. I had the pleasure of diving with Jan. He is very relaxed, knowledgeable, and passionate about diving. Jan ensured that every dive was not only safe but also incredibly enjoyable and unforgettable.

    What I really liked about Elixir Divers: you don’t have to wake up at the crack of dawn or spend your whole day on the water. You arrive shortly before the boat takes off (ca. 20min before departure, which means that you can have breakfast at your hotel without any stress) and then everything’s ready to roll. The tours are so well-organized that you’ll be back by a reasonable hour, leaving you time to chill and soak up the island vibes in the afternoon.

    The boat crew was amazing. Always on top of things, keeping the energy up, and going the extra mile. During our surface interval at Phi Phi Island, the captain made two stops at some lovely spots for a bit of „sightseeing“ (Maya Bay and Monkey Beach). It’s the perfect bonus to an already amazing trip.

    Elixir Divers isn’t just for divers though - they offer awesome day trips for everyone. You can go snorkeling or hop on a speedboat tour and let the wonderful crew show you the best spots in the Andaman Sea.

    I can’t wait to come back for more

    One of the most beautiful beaches in Thailand 🇹🇭
    We visited koh hey (banana beach) May 12 2023 as part of a group of 6 friends. The lunch provided was excellent. We had special dietary needs for 2 of our party and they went to great lengths to prepare an amazing seafood lunch for us. The trip from chalong pier to koh hey is quite short so u get more time to enjoy the beautiful beach and it’s surrounds. The sand is beautifully white and the water was clean and clear with no litter or refuse. A great place to see a picture postcard Thai beach

    Fun Experiance
    At first we were very hesitant to try this tour out due to the price, but I have to say it was very worth it. They picked us up at our hotel which happend to be 1.5 hours away. The whitewater rafting was very fun, our only regret was not paying the extra money to go further to 10KM. The guys who were steering the raft will ask for a tip if you had a good time. The ATV ride was a little difficult at first but after the first 30 minutes you get used to it. Our Tour guide took us to the most amaizing and challenging places. He did gave us breaks if we wanted to take them to rest or take pictures as well complimentary water. Once it was time for lunch the food was delicious and more than enough for just the two of us!

    Best experience in Thailand! 5 star crew and chef
    Most professional best organized trip ever experienced! Pick up was on time the captain, the guides, the deck hand and even the chef were all 5 stars. I studied biology and animal science so I was desperate for a guide that could offer me knowledge about the flora and fauna of the area. My guide Musa had been a local fisherman since the age of 16 and not only had the knowledge of a local fisherman but he was also an avid lover of the environment and studied about the animals and geologic formations of the area as it is his passion. My husband is jr really interested in the details of the wildlife and environment like I am but Musa is also an excellent comedian and had him laughing the whole time so our guide was able to make both of us happy despite the fact that my husband and I are two entirely different types of tourists. Give Musa a raise or better yet give him a boat to captain because he really deserves it! Always tip your guides-Especially if you are fat or a heavy bodybuilder!

    Very professional
    Highly professional. Worked very hard to make us happy.
    Managed to secure a private charter for four, despite an unfavourable weather forecast.
    Igor in no way tried to force our decision to go from Kho Yao Yoi to the islands off Koh Phi Phi for snorkelling. )we had been very disappointed by our “snorkelling” experience at Hong Island, where there were more tourists to be seen than fish, and where the waters were murky.
    Decided to chance it with Elixir, not wanting to rest on a sour note.
    Trip over in new 30ft speedboat with twin 250 Yamahas fast and comfortable.
    (Coming back into the seas was predictably lumpy, but the captain did his best to avoid the lumpy bits!).
    After first anchorage on tiny sandy beach covered with tourists, asked captain to find us a tranquil spot.
    Located spectacular sandy beach with no one!
    Sea still a bit cloudy, and fish sparse.
    Probably due to aftermath of big storms and rain recently.
    Captain served simple but good lunch and prepared beautifully a pineapple and yellow watermelon.
    I would have no hesitation in recommending Elixir.
    Ideally at a more favourable time of the year.
