The crew made the trip...
The crew made the trip they were great.the fishing was advertised as big game fishing with all the required up to date tackle. It son became apparent this was not so.after talking with the crew there would be no chance of connecting into anything but skipjack ( hardly the big game that was portrayed) the tackle was old and in poor shape. As I said the staff made the trip and although I was very disappointed with the fishing the trip was nice
Response from the operator: Dear Rob, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re very pleased to hear that you found the crew to be great and that their efforts helped make the trip enjoyable despite your disappointment with the fishing itself. We would like to clarify that, as with all fishing experiences, we cannot guarantee the type or size of fish that will be caught on the day. Sea conditions, weather, seasonality, and fish behavior all play a significant role, and these factors are beyond anyone’s control. While the tour is designed as a big game fishing experience, actual catches can vary. That said, we do appreciate your comments regarding the tackle, and we will pass this feedback on to the operator for review and improvement. Thank you again for your honest review, and we’re glad that overall you were still able to enjoy the trip and the professionalism of the crew. Kind regards, Paul

The Ultimate Fishing Adventure - Truly 5 Stars!
My expectations for the Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour were high, and this trip is an absolute must-do for any fishing enthusiast or beginner. From the moment we stepped aboard, the crew was exceptional. They were incredibly professional, highly experienced, and genuinely passionate about fishing. Big shout out to Ms Toey who worked tirelessly to put us on the fish, always offering helpful tips and ensuring we had a fantastic time. The boat itself was top-notch – clean, comfortable, and equipped with the latest fishing gear. The trolling action was thrilling! We had multiple hook-ups throughout the day and the excitement of battling a powerful fish was truly unforgettable. Even for those newer to big game fishing, the crew provided all the guidance needed. Beyond the fishing, the scenery was breathtaking, and the onboard amenities, including a delicious lunch and plenty of drinks, made the long day feel easy and enjoyable. This tour delivers on its promise of an "ultimate" experience. If you're looking for an exhilarating day on the open water with a fantastic crew and the chance to land some serious fish, look no further. I'm already dreaming of my next trip back!
Response from the operator: Hello abbey, Thank you for your amazing and detailed review! We’re so happy to hear that the Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour lived up to your expectations and provided such a memorable experience. It’s wonderful to know that Ms. Toey and the crew made your day so special — they truly are passionate about what they do, and your kind words will mean a lot to them. We’re also glad you enjoyed the boat, the fishing action, and the beautiful scenery, along with the food and drinks onboard. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another thrilling day out on the water. Hopefully, the next trip will bring you even bigger catches! Best regards, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)

Was a good trip even...
Was a good trip even though I did not catch anything but would have been nice to be told it was not trolling season as that's the whole reason I booked it so no big fish which was very disappointing. But the food was good and well prepared staff was very nice. Just disappointed that I though we where going out for big fish then told it's not the season when we got on board
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the food and found the staff friendly, but we’re truly sorry to hear about the disappointment regarding the trolling season. Your point is completely valid—this should have been clearly communicated before booking, and we will work with our team to ensure seasonal expectations are made clearer going forward. We appreciate your understanding and hope we’ll have the chance to offer you a better experience in the future. Thanks, Nick (IAsia Thailand Online)

False advertising
Advertised as big game fishing and trolling but it was only bottom fishing for 1.5lb groupers. Boat is good, lunch is good and the guide is good. But false advertising.
Response from the operator: Hi Jason, Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the boat, lunch, and guide. We sincerely apologize if the trip did not meet your expectations regarding the type of fishing offered. Our goal is to provide an enjoyable and authentic experience, but the description is not false advertising. Our trips do include trolling when conditions allow, but we also incorporate bottom fishing to ensure a successful and enjoyable experience for our guests. I am sure you agree that fishing conditions and seasonal factors can affect the catch. Thanks, Paul

Why this scores 38
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phuket.
How much does Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $3800 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 Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour 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 Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 38 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.6/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Phuket, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour 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 8-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour?
+
Around 5 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 Ultimate Full-Day Big Game Fishing & Trolling Tour 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.
