Bond. James Bond. Try repeating this phrase on the set of one of the most renowned James Bond movies — The Man With The Golden Gun — filmed in 1974 and starring Roger Moore. Today, James Bond Island is one of the major attractions at Phang Nga Bay National Park. The beautiful island has remained almost exactly the same as featured in the movie and you will get the chance to walk in James Bond's footsteps and take amazing photos with the famous backdrop. Explore the hidden caves and emerald lagoons by canoe, and step back into the prehistoric world at a landscape formed over many thousands of years. Visit the village of Koh Payee built on stilts hundreds of years ago. Enjoy a sumptuous lunch of typical food from Thailand. Get the chance to interact with the locals with the help of your guide and spot statues, carvings, and monkeys at Wat Suwan Khuha (Monkey Cave) before the end of your tour.

Definitely good value for money. Very well organised. A lot to do in the day and everything went smoothly. The transport was well air conditioned and arrived at the time arranged. Plenty of cold water provided throughout the trip. Favourite part was the James Bond Island. Expect it to be very busy but you can still manage to get the obligatory pictures. If you have long hair- tie it back before the long tail boat as it travels at a faster speed than you may expect at times and your hair will be a mess and sprayed with salt water. You will need to climb in and out of the long tail boat quite a few times over the day. Sea canoeing was great - especially as you get the close up views of the sea caves and mangroves without having to paddle the canoe yourselves. Lunch on the village on stilts was good quality and a buffet. You may get lost in the many shopping streets afterwards. Last stop was a cave temple with free roaming monkeys - they are not friendly, don’t attempt to feed or touch them. Towards the back of the cave is quite a long set of different size steps carved out of the rock. They are dark, wet and slippery in places and there is nothing at the top of them after the effort. The rest of the cave temple is interesting to view. We arrived back at our hotel around 5pm and felt it had been a great day out.
A very enjoyable/informative/memorable day out.

Exceedingly well organised and a very enjoyable/informative/memorable day out. I even felt compelled to watch Man with the Golden Gun on the aeroplane on the way home! The price didn't include the National Park entrance fee, and I didn't realise this until after I'd booked. The addition of the park fees then made the excursion the same price as I could have booked at my hotel.

A very well organized excursion into untouched nature. Fortunately, it wasn't too crowded everywhere. Good food. Boom was a very attentive and friendly guide, explained us a lot. We can't recommend this trip to James Bond fans either.

Severe weather warnings prior to pickup so questioned appropriateness of undertaking the trip. No clarification prior to pick up so chose not to go on the transport. Subsequently shared contacts and concerns with company who dismissed concerns despite government sponsered warninings for the area and reports of flooding and landslides, so they would not look at refund as they shared no warnings at specific departure point of boat irrespective of surrounding area and area to be traversed to the departure. No change in operator opinion despite being informed of flooding in landslide hotel during the day and reports of flooding and slides on news throughout the day.

We really enjoyed the trip. The views were fantastic, and we also included kayaking, a very exciting experience, especially entering the caves. I highly recommend it.

This was a lovely tour, you do get to see the depths of Thailand here. Island to island. You see temples, monkeys, the islands, the floating school! It was very eye opening. I suggest taking water as it is very humid on the island. Overall it was a nice day, and the tour guide was lovely, friendly and attentive. Do try to haggle with the vendors on James Bond Island, we paid $35 for 3 magnets. You live and you learn. :)
