Awesome fun & greatly organised boat tour!
Amazing fun. This was our best Phuket experience by far. Of all boat tours out there, this is the one to go for. Run by Mark [an aussie living his dream life!], and managed by a group of awesome locals. The whole experience was very well organised [directions, comms, payment, etc]. The tour was exceptional [james bond island, batcaves, monkeys, fluorescent planktons at night, jumping off the boat!]. Thank you Mark and team!
Response from the operator: Hi Chris, and thank you for letting us know that your day with us was your best expereince in Phuket. It really matters to all of us that our guests have the best day out we can provide. We have spent a lot of time developing our tours to show the best places, at the best times, with the least other tourists around. I am glad it all went well for you. Thank you for choosing to spend a day with us. I hope you enjoyed Phuket and maybe we will see you aboard again next time you are here. There is a lot more to see. Happy travels, Mark and the crew.

“This is the best soup of my life!”
I couldn’t recommend this tour enough! Jack and his crew made the whole day wonderful, seamless and an experience of a lifetime! Ibrahim was our kayaking guide and his commentary was hysterical, it made the whole day so much fun. The food was impeccable, I still talk about the soup they served on board the boat. They took us to spots that were very beautiful and gorgeous but not overcrowded. Group size was 7 of us (one family of 5, a solo traveler, my husband and myself). This was by far my favorite tour we did and I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Response from the operator: Hello Rebecca! I will tell Ibrahim you are saying nice things about him, he will be pleased. Thank you for joining us, and thank you for the lovely review. I hope you come back to Phuket, and maybe we will see you again then. We have a lot more to show you. And we will make sure there is plenty of soup, it is called Tom Kha Guy. Happy travels, Mark and the crew.

I'd go every day if it were possible. Don't look further!
I have to say that if I could go every day, I would! I've been lucky enough to go on all the tours Phuket Sail Tours offers and all of them are simply mindblowingly beautiful, the staff at Phuket Sail Tours is professional, knowledagable and super kind. The food on every tour is amazing. Safety first and it feels like a private tour. The restaurants you visit are really good and I absolutely love the food that you get on the boat. There is plenty of everything and even BengBengs (thai candybar). The peddlemen are all lovely and make sure you have a wonderful time while they are minding your safety in the kayaks, in the water and in the caves. Yes, I know the tours are a few hundred bath more than other tours but we've passed a few of those other boats, they didn't seem as relaxing... We were spaciously seated and enjoying ourself. The food is amazing, the pickup and drop off very well coordinated, snacks and coffee at the office, new snorkling gear and a lot of personal attention. I loved especially how they adjusted our schedule in order to avoid the crowds. And did I mention the food? ;-) Going on one of the tours with Mark is the next best thing to a private tour and in my opinion better because I enjoyed hanging out with the other passengers and hearing their stories. Massive kop kun ka mak mak to Captain Mark, ChaCha and the full team of Phuket Sail Tours!

Phang Nga Bay by Phuket Sail Tours Took Our Breath Away
We went on the Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Sea Cave Canoe Tour with Phuket Sail Tours. What a magical day. The sights we visited, including the caves, beaches, and islands, took our breaths away, and the team led by Captain Mark and Jack was amazing. The group was small and intimate, and the big boat experience with the canoes was so much fun. We had an excellent Thai lunch cooked onboard together with plenty of drinks, fruit, and snacks. For an experience you will never forget and cherish forever, I highly recommend Phuket Sail Tours.
Response from the operator: Hello M. Thank you for telling everyone how much fun we had on our big boat tour of Phang Nga Bay. We really try hard to find the best spots with the least people about. I am glad that you had a magical day. Happy travels, and I hope we see you again next time you are here. Mark and the crew.

A terrific family day out would highly recommend
100% recommend this trip. We travelled as family of 5 (ages of kids 8-14). This was voted as out favourite day out during our whole trip. Everything from the team, the kayaking, the boat, the food and the beautiful places we explored was just brilliant and made a great day. The whole team were great with the kids, making it easy for everyone to enjoy the trip from helping them kayak independently, answering their questions, and helping them explore the caves safely and the yummy food including my vegetarian sensitive eater. We got access to beautiful places, the team knew the tides and planned the itinerary well to get access to the best spots (avoiding congestion with other big boats and busy spots) and the small group size was perfect so you felt the day was yours. Things you might want to know - on arrival free tea, coffee and toilets to get you set before you go on the boat were a plus esp. with the kids. It was due to rain so they gave us free disposable waterproofs which was super thoughtful. We got the bus a short distance to the boat. Toilets and all facilities were clean. The staff were great with the kids. My youngest was invited (supervised) to visit the captain and check out the sailing operations. There was plenty of water, soft drinks and refreshments throughout the day. The staff know the waters and were great with tips, local advise and spotting things throughout the day. They were so friendly, smiley and added to the energy of the day - thanks Jack and team. The price you pay includes all entrance fees with no hidden extras (I read other company reviews this so this seems to be a good plus and important when you are a family travelling on a budget)
Response from the operator: Hi 10. I am very happy to read that your family voted your tour with us as the best day. Thank you for letting us know. Everyone here wants you to have a great time, and part of that is not asking you to spend more money once aboard. Everything is included from pick up to drop off. I hope we see your family back her again one day, we have a lot more to show you. Mark, Jack and the crew.

Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours cost?
+
Prices start at $134 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 Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 329 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Phuket, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours?
+
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 Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours?
+
Around 115 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Secrets Of Phang Nga Bay Boat Tour From Phuket By Phuket Sail Tours 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, Phuket Thai Cooking Class 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.
