An Unforgettable and Magical Experience!

5.00There aren't enough good things I can say about this experience. The pick up in Ao Nang was a breeze. The boat was comfortable and the crew really made me feel at home with their genuine welcoming vibe and exquisite attention to every detail. Snorkeling, exploring, and, with a lot of help and encouragement, this 46 year old got up on a paddle board for the first time! Oh, and the dinner they serve is fresh, local, and is one of the top three meals I've had in Thailand. Do not hesitate or think too hard about this - book the trip and have a wonderful time!!
Fun island tour

5.00This is a great island tour, going to islands not as common or crowded as other tours. Michael, the owner, was very involved and helpful with the guests, making sure we had a fun time. The boat has a lot more space to get up and move around than most island tours, as well as equipment like stand up paddle boards, kayaks and snorkel equipment. I highly recommend this tour and this company - they were exceptional!
A wonderful and memorable day

5.00My husband and I went yesterday and it was just amazing from start to finish. We went snorkeling 3 times. The guides were with us monitoring us all of the time we were in the water and so we felt very safe. For people who are not so confident in the water, they could be towed around on a ring, via a kayak. The snorkeling gear was in very good and clean condition. We are in low season, so there was loads of room on the comfy and quirky boat. I'm glad we didn't choose the speed boats, as the ones we seen looked cramped. We were given a paddle board to explore on of the islands and this was fun. Again we were monitored in the water. Nice meal and plenty of soft drinks whenever we wanted. Some people had cocktails that are extra cost, but they were really cheap. Such a wonderful and memorable day with stunning views, great guides and great crew
I like this island because it is really beautiful and for relaxing

Highlight of our Krabi trip

5.00This was honestly the highlight of our trip to Krabi. The boat was fantastic, the snorkeling was so much fun, and they had an excellent equipment ready for us and even had hair ties if you happen to forget one, which was such a thoughtful touch. The snorkel spots were awesome and you have a good amount of time to explore. We saw so many varieties of fish and sea life. The food and bar was great, and the staff were so friendly and helpful throughout the day. The bioluminescent swim was as such a special experience and a perfect way to end the day. Could not recommend this operator more highly.
Had a great time, crew...

5.00Had a great time, crew was great, showed us a good time. They took complimentary pictures of us which was a nice surprise. Coming from the United States, nothing is ever complimentary. One if the best tours we did in the area.
Book this one!

5.00Relaxing and smooth trip on Krabi Sunset Cruises. We were well looked after by Michael, Dominique and the whole crew. Plenty of snacks, cold water, soft drinks, juice, iced coffee/chocolate available. Dinner was also plentiful and filling with vegetarian and vegan options available. Bring cash if you'd like to purchase alcohol on board or tip the crew at the end of the day. They have dry bags available if you need as well as sunscreen. Definitely bring a towel, hat and sunglasses. There is an outdoor freshwater shower for a quick rinse and a bathroom as well. We waded in shallow water to take a small boat from Ao Nang Beach for about 15 mins before transferring to the main boat offshore of Railay. The main boat has a selection of sunny & shaded area, as well as comfortable floor cushions or bench seats. I have had seasickness on previous speedboat trips but had no issues with these boats. We went to two snorkelling spots. Michael helped guide us see reef sharks, even a whole family group! Floating pool noodles and lifejackets are available, highly recommend taking at least the pool noodle even if you are a strong swimmer as it allows you to focus on snorkelling. Prescription snorkels were available. The crew will gladly give you a lift on the paddleboards if you get tired or you can also swim around guided by a crew member with an inflatable ring. The crew were swimming around with some waterproof cameras and will share Dropbox link with you to get copies. We climbed the ropes to the roof of the boat which was a bit thrilling, but the crew made sure to guide us and help carry phones up safely. Worst case if you fell from the ladder, you'd be going for a quick swim! It was lovely to watch the sunset from there. The luminescent plankton is pretty cool and something you wouldn't even know about if you didn't have a guide. It looks like sparkly bubbles underwater if you splash around a lot. You won't see this if you don't get in the water. Overall, would highly recommend if you are looking for a Krabi boat trip. We had 12 people on our trip which I believe was half full so had plenty of space.
A must do
