Nice time, room for improvements
We went to 5 places on this trip, all very beautiful especially the Hong lagoon kayak trip through the caves. We arrived at the port as scheduled but we didn't leave the port until nearly an hour later. The staff acknowledged that they were running a bit late but proceeded to talk through the itinerary in detail. Each place was jam packed with tourists. There were a few really inconsiderate, selfish and disrespectful tourists in the group, not listening to Moo Moo our tour leader, asking to bring alcohol to Panyee island which is a Muslim community, smoking on the speedboat in front of other people. Moo Moo our tour leader was great, he was charismatic and energetic but you can tell that the rude tourists were wearing him down too in the end. Also we informed the company in advance of our vegan and gluten free (coeliac disease) dietary requirements and unfortunately we didn't have a great lunch experience like other people. We were unsure of what we could eat as there were no dietary information next to the food. It took a while to be told that the vegetable stir fry was safe for us to eat with no soy sauce which we had with rice. Fortunately we were not ill. We were brought out a plate of salad each but with salad sauce which likely contained egg which we didn't eat. We went on an island hopping tour from Krabi and we were given 2 vegan & GF dishes in separate tupperware just for us to have which made us feel very safe. Overall we had a nice time and feel the tour could be improved if there was less time waiting around in the beginning and if more effort was put into lunch options for those with dietary requirements.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful locations, especially Hong Lagoon, and we truly appreciate your kind words about Moo Moo, we’re very proud of him. We sincerely apologize for the delayed departure and for the confusion regarding your vegan and gluten-free meal. Dietary requirements should be handled more clearly and carefully, and we will improve our coordination and food labeling to ensure guests feel safe and well looked after. Thank you again for your constructive comments. We’re grateful that overall you still had a nice time, and your feedback will help us improve the experience for future guests. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and provide an even better experience next time. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team

Really great day out...
Really great day out seeing some beautiful islands only accessible by sea. Nice to go on the little canoes too. Lunch was a bit cold but I am not a big fan of buffet for this reason

We appreciate your honest feedback regarding the lunch. Your comments are valuable to us, and we will take them into consideration as we continue to improve. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again for another great day out in the future. Best Regards, Tawan Oh-Hoo Team

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket cost?
+
Prices start at $1854 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 James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 21 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 James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket?
+
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 James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 7-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket?
+
Around 7 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does James Bond Island Day Tour with Kayaking Experience by Speed Boat from Phuket 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, Phang Nga Bay Canoeing & James Bond Island Tour from Phuket. 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.
