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.
Response from the operator: Hello ! We’re so grateful that you took the time to share your feedback with us. It’s our pleasure to serve customers like you. Have a wonderful day! Kind Regards, Thailand Tours team

Agency had so many delays, crowded places and friendly staff
The original time schedule was not respected with so many delays and less hours in the islands in order to be back on time. Also, the two spots were super crowded with boats and people you could barely swim. Of course this is not the agent fault. The crew was friendly and the snorkelling spot good
Response from the operator: Dear Loannis My apologize for all the delay, since the transfer is a share transfer it's might cost for some delay as not all the customer are all on time :( Hope you have a great time in Thailand Best regards, Thailand Tours Team

Not a snorkeling trip
The trip was awesome, great fun, loved the speed boat. The islands are ok...but they really just wanna sell you sea sports - which were great but that is NOT why we went. I looked up SNORKELLING TRIP and even called the company to be told these were the best islands for snorkeling. They are not. The snorkelling was awful. Island #1 - No snorkeling Island #2 - 10 mins snorkeling - no fish - no coral, awful Island #3 - A little better but still 2 out of 10 as far a South east asian snorkelling. Go on the trip for fun. Avoid like the plague if you wanna snorkel.
Response from the operator: Dear Peter First of all I think you call to Viator and they suggest you for this tour but surely you didn't reach to us. as we never suggest anyone to do this tour for snorkeling at all. And for the upselling stuff it is not from our company but the local people there By the way thankyou for sharing us your feedback and we hope you have a great time in Thailand Best regards, Thailand Tours Team

Give it a pass
Way over-priced. The first island stop was a joke. Plenty of chairs for RENT for a 1-hour stop. Lots of other boats stopping in which amounted to swarms of people in a small, designated swimming area. Second stop about 30 minutes for snorkellig. Crew members tossed food to the fish and attract them. The last stop was nice actually. Far fewer other people than the first stop. Still, I wouldn't recommend this trip and I certainly would never do it again.
Response from the operator: This island is only a small island and it's only 15 minutes from Phuket. Most people want to stop by and from this part we hope that you can understand that we cannot control anyone from going or selling things on the island. Best regards, Thailand Tours Team

Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat cost?
+
Prices start at $43 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Phuket usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Phuket is not rushed.
Is Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Phuket, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Phuket can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Phuket and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Half Day and Full day 3 Khai Islands by Speedboat start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Phuket within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Phuket?
+
On Outty we rank every Phuket experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Southern Flavors Phuket Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, James Bond Island by Big Boat w/ Sea Cave Canoeing and Lunch, Phuket Thai Cooking Class with Market Tour Option. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Phuket?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Phuket?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
