About this experience

The Krabi Islands are lesser known than the more famous Phi Phi and James Bond Islands but are equally as spectacular. A trip to the Krabi Islands will allow you to experience a mix of great snorkelling, white sandy beaches, limestone islands and hidden lagoons. During the peak period of travel you will find that these are less crowded and a great day trip location to keep away from the crowds while exploring amazing island destinations and locations. A personal favorite of our crew as it's a good mix of exactly what Phuket and it's surrounding Islands have to offer.

Great time.

Tour guides were great! Very nice and eager to make sure we were happy. Islands were beautiful. Clean boat, plenty of drinks, and a plate of fruits. We had a real nice time. Bring extra money cash for any national park fees.

Best tour ever!

From the email request to the transfer back to our hotel, 5 Star Marine went above and beyond. Extremely professional, friendly and knowledgeable, everyone from YaYa our guide, “Captain America” and “Captain Jack Sparrow” our boat crew were fantastic! YaYa knew all of the best places to know and her recommendations for lunch meant we had the best meal in Thailand we’ve ever had! Can’t speak highly enough of 5 Star Marine!

private tours to Similan Islands and James Bond Island

We had the most incredible experience with 5 Star Marine on our private tours to Similan Islands and James Bond Island! Both trips were absolutely amazing—from the smooth planning to the top-notch facilities on the boat. The service was outstanding, and every staff member was friendly, professional, and made us feel completely at home. It honestly felt like we were out at sea with friends rather than on a tour. What made it even more special was the flexibility. We could customise the itinerary while on board, and our guide Yaya was exceptional—she somehow knew exactly what we wanted and tailored the experience perfectly for us. And a bonus—Yaya is an amazing photographer We came back not just with great memories, but with stunning photos too (all taken for us!). Highly recommend 5 Star Marine if you’re looking for a premium, personalised island-hopping experience in Phuket.

Private boat day tours to phi phi island and krabi islands

We had the best time on our two boat days visiting so many beautiful islands — it was such a highlight of our trip! We actually went on two separate tours and were lucky enough to have the same crew both days, which made it even better. Our tour guide, Ya Ya, was absolutely incredible. She, along with the entire boat crew, went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of the whole time. They were so attentive, constantly checking on us, helping with anything we needed, and making sure everyone felt comfortable and safe. Having the same team both days made the experience feel even more personal — they remembered us, looked out for us, and truly cared about us having an amazing time. The days were so much fun — we hit all the spots we were hoping to see, explored stunning islands, swam in crystal-clear water, and enjoyed every minute from start to finish. Everything was well organized but still relaxed and fun. They also took us to a delicious lunch spot that was the perfect mid-day break — such a great touch! Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and we can’t recommend Ya Ya and the crew enough. They truly made both days so special! 🌊☀️

BEST DAY EVER

We had the best experience with 5 Star Marine and honestly can’t recommend them enough. From the moment we booked, everything was super smooth. They were incredibly communicative, responsible, and made the whole process easy and stress-free. When we arrived, the staff immediately made us feel welcome and treated us so kindly all day. The boat was beautiful, spacious, and very well priced for a private tour. Drinks and fresh fruit were included, which was such a nice touch. Everything felt clean, safe, and really well run. The biggest highlight is that the tours are completely customizable, so we got to go exactly where we wanted without feeling rushed or stuck with a big crowd. Huge shoutout to our crew and especially our guide Jimmy, who was amazing. He was knowledgeable, fun, and happy to adjust the day based on whatever we wanted to do. We’ve done larger group tours before, and this was by far the best experience and absolutely worth the money (and honestly not much more than the crowded tours). If you’re debating booking with them, just do it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Krabi Islands Private Tour: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.

How much does Krabi Islands Private Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $34000 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 Krabi Islands Private Tour take?

+

Plan for about 6 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 Krabi Islands Private Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 55 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 Krabi Islands Private Tour?

+

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 Krabi Islands Private Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Krabi Islands Private Tour?

+

Around 19 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Krabi Islands Private Tour 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.
