Extraordinary experience visiting the Phi Phi islands with the amazing Sawanu Travel Team
Awesome trip and must do! It was my first time traveling to Phi Phil Islands and I chose to go with Sawanu Travels, and I was totally amazed by their spectacular service right from the word go. I booked their package through a local operator situated right next to my hotel at Oceanfront. Name of the Operator is Nancy tours and the person who completed the formalities goes by the name of Tina who was very helpful in explaining each and every detail to me. All of it on the tour was as promised by her. So good job Tina and Nancy Tours. It was great experience at the Sawanu Lounge at the Marina Bay pier where we had some refreshments. We boarded the catamaran which was extremely clean. Our guides were Tommy and Po Po, both of whom were really gently and helpful. Rainy, one of the crew members, also helped us with our stuff and took special care of my family. The journey was extremely smooth. We were provided with refreshments on board. Constant guidance was provided by both the guides in both English and Thai languages. They took extra care just to ensure no one was left behind wherever we stopped. All the locations were covered as promised. Stop time was about 20 mins at each location. Lunch was good too, with veg and non veg options. I personally liked the veg options more. We did swimming, snorkelling and kayaking. It was my first time doing snorkelling, and it was an out-worldly experience for me, since I am huge admirer of marine life all my life. Admission fees to all major attractions were covered in the package so you don't have to worry about spending a dime at any of the stops, apart from the refreshments ofcourse. One point I definitely loved was that the crowd was surprisingly lower to what I was expecting it to be. It was not at all crowded and we were able to get very clear pictures of us with hardly any people in the background. So great job organizing it this way. The best part of the whole tour was the guides helping you at every step and taking extra care of you. It felt like family. Overall, a great experience and I would love to go with them again, this time maybe to Simian islands.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing and detailed review! 🌴💙 We’re truly delighted to hear that you had such a memorable Phi Phi Islands experience with us. Your kind words about Tommy, Po Po, Rainy, and our team mean a lot, and we’ll be sure to share your compliments with them. We’re happy you enjoyed the catamaran, snorkeling, kayaking, food, and smooth organization. Thank you for choosing Sawanu Travels, and we can’t wait to welcome you again for your next island adventure! 🌊✨

Boat tour to Phi Phi
Great day out with Bella, Alice and Nikita on Sawanu Travel. Everything was included (except for the long tail boats at one of the lagoons, which you could rent for extra). Hotel transfer, breakfast, lunch and snacks. Would go again. If you get sea sick - would reccomend taking the sea sickness tablets they give you. The bigger the boat = less rocky

WoW!! What an amazing company and people SAWANU travel is , from the time of booking with Yai ( what a lovely and professional lady) to the tour, it was such a great experience. One of our tour guide on the tour was named Tequila, and he made our time so special as i had a 8 year old and a elderly with me and my husband. They were exsstremly helpful and patient and i have to take my hat of to all of you. You really do make the tours special and you feel like you want to go back for more. Well done to the Sawanu team, keep up the good work!! Pather Family.

A lifetime experience!!
My son and I were lucky enough to do this tour on 17/04/25. An experience of a lifetime! Extremely good value included all transfers from our hotel which took 90min each way in the Phuket traffic. Main guide Nook was amazing, very funny and humble. Food was great, plenty of water bottles for the heat and refreshing Thai soft drink cans.The catamaran was smooth sailing as I am nervous on boats, hardly felt a bump. The kind crew even helped me try scuber diving by providing me with a board too hold onto whilst learning. Amazing. Thank you nook and crew!

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling cost?
+
Prices start at $1584 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 Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling 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 Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling 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 22 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 Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling?
+
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 Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling 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 Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling?
+
Around 8 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 Private Phi Phi Islands & Bamboo Full Day Tour with snorkeling 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.
