Amazing sunrise tour with a fantastic crew

We had an amazing experience on this tour and were extremely satisfied with everything. The organization was excellent from start to finish, and the crew truly made the difference — they were incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the whole trip. The islands were absolutely stunning and seeing the sunrise from one of them made the experience even more special. Everything was well planned and smooth, so we could just relax and enjoy the beauty around us. The food was very good, and we really appreciated the constant availability of cold water and fresh fruit, which was perfect, especially in the heat. Overall, this tour exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Phuket. We even had a little adventure in the end, so we will never forget the experience. A big thank you to the fantastic crew for making it such a memorable day!

A MUST DO Phi Phi Islands tour 💛 BEST EXPERIENCE 💛

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ **MUST-DO EXPERIENCE!** The early morning small-group speedboat tour is an absolute winner — avoiding the crowds made all the difference. Sunny was a fantastic tour guide: professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. We genuinely loved him and the whole crew. The Phi Phi Islands are *breathtakingly* beautiful — photos don’t do them justice. We snorkelled and swam at multiple spots, each one stunning in its own way. The seaview lunch was delicious, with authentic Thai food that really hit the spot. We also opted for the personal photographer, and it was 100% worth it — amazing family photos we’ll treasure forever. The boat was modern, spotless, and very comfortable, with plenty of refreshments and fresh fruit throughout the day. Our family of four absolutely loved every minute. Honestly, we can’t fault a single thing. **Book it — you won’t regret it!** 🌊🐠✨

Response from the operator: Greetings from V. Marine Tour, Thank you very much for your wonderful five-star review. We are truly delighted to hear that the early morning small-group tour allowed you to enjoy the Phi Phi Islands away from the crowds and made such a positive difference to your experience. We are especially pleased to know that Sunny and the entire crew provided professional, friendly, and knowledgeable service. Your kind words will certainly be shared with them. It is lovely to hear that you enjoyed the snorkeling stops, the scenic lunch with authentic Thai cuisine, and the comfort of our modern speedboat. We are also thrilled that the personal photography service captured special family moments you will cherish for years to come. Thank you for choosing to travel with V. Marine Tour and for your generous recommendation. We sincerely hope to welcome you and your family again on another unforgettable experience in the future.

Brilliant day out

We had a great day on this trip visiting many islands and snorkelling. Goodie was a great host and was very informative. We visited and island to watch the sunrise and then went to Maya Bay which was quiet as it was early we then went snorkelling and We stopped off for lunch at phi phi Don. The only thing I would say is the speed boat is not for the faint hearted and get get quite bumpy in windy weather

Response from the operator: Greetings from V. Marine Tour, Thank you very much for taking the time to share wonder ful review. We are delighted to hear that you had a great day visiting the islands and enjoying the snorkeling activities. We’re especially pleased to know that Goodie provided informative and attentive service, and that you were able to enjoy the sunrise visit and a quieter experience at Maya Bay, as well as lunch at Phi Phi Don. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the speedboat ride. Sea conditions can vary depending on the weather. Thank you once again for choosing V. Marine Tour. We truly hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again in the future.

Do this one to avoid crowds

Great tour- goodies, our guide, was fantastic. We never ran into a crowd. We saw all the crammed boats arriving as we left each island. There were so many snacks. Great day, we are so happy we picked this one.

We’re glad you appreciated the snacks and had such an enjoyable day overall. Thank you once again for choosing V. Marine Tour. Your happiness means a great deal to us, and we hope to welcome you again in the future.

Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch cost?

+

Prices start at $3000 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 Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch take?

+

Plan for about 9.5 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 Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 47 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Phuket, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch?

+

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 Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 9.5-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch?

+

Around 16 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 9.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Small Group Phi Phi Islands Sunrise Tour with Seaview Lunch 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.
