Enjoyable but not as advertised
The itinerary details were not entirely accurate – travel time was actually around 2 hours each way. While the trip itself was still enjoyable, it was not a small group experience as advertised. Unfortunately, the driver appeared to be under the influence and drove far too fast, especially given the very heavy rain. This was well over the speed limit and felt unsafe, which really detracted from the overall experience.

Short notice and exceeded expectations.
We booked at the very last minute and needed to be picked up out of the area. With only 1 hr notice they managed to organize for someone to pick us up and join the group. They were great guides and really helped us all though the trip. We cannot fault them they were amazing.

Disappointing
We waited in our lobby for 30+ mins for the hotel pick up. Got rushed into a van immediately after the brought us from the hotel. Had a 2 hour drive to the temple. They gave us 15 mins there??? I used half the time in the restroom and wasn’t even able to enjoy any of the experience. They threatened to leave us there if we were late back to the bus. That is insane to me. I understand you have a lot of people doing this however you made our experience horrible. I wish I never gave any money to this company. I don’t think we even had a guide. They just said here’s your timeline be back or be left. Not to mention it is not a traditional long tail boat as you have in the main picture. Such a waste of time and money and extreme disappointment.
Response from the operator: Good morning, we are sadden to understand your poor experience. we will inspect and change all the system if require, Our Objective is to provide an excellent service or stop the service. Our Phuket Manager will have a strict check on your feedback, at the same time I will request you to claim your chargeback. we will return you money 100%. we do apology for inconvenience. Once you apply for charge back, we will know your booking number and we will start our process of check as well. please do get back to us. regards

Why this scores 48
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing cost?
+
Prices start at $2909 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 Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing 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 Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.6/5 across 59 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 Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing?
+
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 Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing 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 Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing?
+
Around 21 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 Phuket to James Bond Island: Longtail Boat Tour with Sea Canoeing 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.
