The best day of our family trip
skyw293,Apr 1, 2026

5.00*Core memory unlocked* What a perfect day. Our large group of 8 (four adults, 4 kids) had the most amazing experience. The ship was quiet and stable in the waves and had plenty of shade - which is amazing compared to a longtail boat. The snorkeling spots were world class - so much to see from bright tropical fish 🐠 to urchins and ground life. What REALLY makes this tour special though, is the owner/operator Michael. He makes sure EVERYONE is having a good time. Our pre-teen daughter has a million excuses why she can’t do things (I don’t want to swim out there, etc) and Michael solved every one effortlessly. The larger boat crew means you always have people life guarding, watching for jellyfish, looking out for your valuables, making you drinks, making sure you’re in the right place at the right time to have the best day ever. I saw the best sunset of my entire life that day. Such a safe memorable experience for the whole family. Do it!!
This is how you make family memories

5.00If you're spending a day on a boat, this is how you want to do it. Was so great being able to move freely around the shop while travelling island to island. There were plenty of drinks, snack, and food. And Michael and his crew were very invested in everyone feeling comfortable and having a good time. While we were snorkeling, they were on paddle boards with extra gear and pool noodles. They even got my daughter, who was reluctant to snorkel, happily in the water. If you want to create a day full of awesome family memories, this is it. You can also get a better price booking directly through krabisunsetcruises.com rather than Viator.

5.00Possibly the best day of my life! It was very well organized, the staff/crew were amazing, Michael is a fantastic guy and the snorkelling + beach spots were just phenomenal... so many tropical fish and underwater sights. The provided equipment was great quality, the food was lovely. Will do this again next time for sure!
Awesome cruise! Beautiful day!

5.00I had a sweet time with Krabi Sunset Cruises. The boat is beautiful and well kept. The crue is on point, accommodating, experienced, and the food was great. As a solo traveler I felt like part of the fun. Even though I'm not a strong swimmer I got to enjoy snorkeling in the reefs with a guide pulling a ring and they pointed out several animals so it was like an underwater tour. So glad I booked with this company. They definitely over delivered!
Brilliant experience with amazing staff

5.00I am only halfway through this tour and it's already worth a 5 star review. The attention of the team to make everyone feel safe, included and having a good time is exceptional.. from watching everyone during swimming activities, to rowing you put to the reef or towing you on a life Bouy if you want some help. To the helpfulness and joy of the team as you travel from island to island.. snacks, drinks are.all.plentyful and the relaxed and friendly atmosphere created for the whole trip is just incredible. So pleased I took this trip with my wife, and I haven't even seen the sunset yet..

5.00Krabi Sunset Cruise = 100% worth it. From the super easy pickup to the insanely friendly crew (Michael and his team were the BEST), this was one of our favorite experiences in Ao Nang. Snorkeling was unreal — we saw black tip sharks (!!) and, not gonna lie… also got introduced to baby jellyfish the hard way 😅 Food on the boat? Way better than expected. If you’re in Krabi and thinking about it — just book it. #SnorkelingKrabi #ThailandTravel #IslandHopping #KrabiTours #WorthIt
The best tour I have ever...

5.00The best tour I have ever been on. I would highly, highly recommend. You go to the best spots with no one else around, and get plenty of time to snorkel, swim and use the paddleboard. The owners and all the staff are so kind, friendly and so accomodating. No complaints whatsoever
Great excursion

5.00This was a fantastic excursion. The owner and the crew were fun, organized, and very attentive. Whenever we were in the water, many of their staff were right there so that everyone was safe. The food was fantastic. It was so great to be on a boat where we could climb to the top and watch the sunset. Seeing the bioluminescent fish was a highlight. This was one of my favorite activities that we did in Thailand.
Absolutely Amazing Experience

5.00Absolutely amazing experience!! Michael and Leila were incredible hosts, along with the rest of the crew. From the time we gathered in Ao Nang, to board our longtail boat transfer to the ship, to when we were dropped back off in Ao Nang, what an awesome trip. The islands are absolutely beautiful and the underwater life while snorkeling was spectacular. The dinner onboard, and watching the sunset while sipping cocktails on the roof, not to mention ton jumping off that roof into the crystal clear waters, was a memory we’ll have forever. The evening concluded with the bioluminescence swim, something I’ve never experienced before. The presence of a giant jelly fish made it even more memorable (100% safe) Can’t recommend this trip enough, you won’t be disappointed
