A wonderful experience and great team
A wonderful experience, from pick up to transported to the wharf. Jackie and his team were amazing, making it fun and memorable. Went out of their way to be inclusive with providing a one on one lifeguard while I was able to float and snorkel as I was not a competent swimmer. Enjoyed the music,sightseeing and speedboat experience.

Fun but long!
Really great day and fantastic guides. Smile on Loam 2 was incredible! It was a bit too long for us and we wished we picked a trip with a shorter duration.

Great family day out.
A fun, family experience. Coco was an amazing guide, full of knowledge and really helped to engage his audience. The kids found it informative and loved the snorkelling. Highly recommend.

Not for me but maybe for you
Beautiful Islands but the day was spoiled by a loud guide, rushed stops, and I should have checked our group was too large … unpleasant. A small group would have been more personal and peaceful like the other company we used for the James Bond tour!!

Stunning islands, but you're just a number
The island is one of the most beautiful places I have been, so overall I had a great time getting to see it, and the tour does pack a lot into the day. My biggest drawback is that the company has turned this into such a well-oiled machine that you feel like cattle being hauled through a factory. Nothing about it felt personal, which is what a guided tour should feel like. From the moment you step into the meeting point, you get an almost military-style welcome: fall in line. After that, you get a number, and that's how they reference you for the rest of the day. You have guides yelling back and forth, and our guide talked so fast I could barely understand what he was saying. A lot of things felt like a checklist he needed to get through to move you along to the next station. I think the company has a very good plan for what the experience should be like, but they need to work on staff training to be more personable and make the experience feel more human — not like animals being moved through a factory. That being said, the island was so beautiful I still enjoyed seeing it. ---

Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip by Speedboat: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip by Speedboat cost?
+
Prices start at $48 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 Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip by Speedboat take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip by Speedboat worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 399 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 Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip 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 Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip by Speedboat suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip by Speedboat?
+
Around 140 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Phi Phi with Maya and Bamboo Island Day Trip 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 James Bond Island by Big Boat w/ Sea Cave Canoeing and Lunch, Southern Flavors Phuket Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Hands-on Thai Cooking Class Phuket 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.

Not included: Personal expenses; Gratuities; and National Park Fee for foreigner (Adult 400 / Child 200). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
