Great experience! - Great experience! The sunset was amazing. I expected the bioluminescence a little bit different…. But it was ok! We were able to snorkel and see some beautiful species!

A fabulous 7 island snorkelling and sunset tour - We were extremely impressed by the staff who made the trip fun and safe. Lots of opportunities to snorkel or just sit back and admire the fabulous scenery. Exceptional value for the money.

Was OK - Everything was very nice but quite exhausting. Unfortunately there weren't even 7 islands, only 5 or 6. The BBQ buffet was some of the best food I ate on my trip to Thailand. The guide was cool but also extremely over the top and loud. The bioluminescence really wasn't worth it. You didn't see anything. This is definitely not a place to see bioluminescence. Unfortunately it's just a money-making scheme in my opinion.

Fun Activity - Our guide Sid was great, kept it moving along. Would have liked more snorkelling time as the jellyfish were a challenge. The sunset was a non event sue to clouds however, the dinner on the beach was quite good. The nigh-time snorkelling we passed as there was zero visibility and we were concerned about the jellyfish. We felt overall great value for what we paid, appreciated being picked up from out hotel and brought back once at the end.

Amazing view and snorkeling fun!! - Great way to view the islands from a boat. Amazing scenery! We stay at the sand bar for 30 min, snorkel for 45 min, look at chicken island, snorkel again for 45 min, eat dinner at poda island for 2 hours to watch sunset. Then look at the bioluminescence. I would avoid this if you have motion sickness because you will be stuck on the boat until after the last activity. This is one and done type of deal. I recommend if you have not done any island hopping.

Worth the price - Boat was bit packed but It's worth the price considering the length and itinerary. Guide speaks good English and was kind & attentive. Some islands are crowded but that's just what they are. Good memories and a good last day trip in Krabi. Dinner buffet saved us after a long and arduous day out in the sea.

No sunset - I booked this tour mainly to catch the sunset. The attached photos show that the sunset occurred behind a mountain. I was really disappointed. They also served the food which was not barbecue like the brochure said, at the same time we were supposed to be catching the sunset. Isn't there another island more suitable to watch the sunset?

Lovely Staff - Boat Rammed - The tour was as advertised: 7 islands (some you just look at from the boat), snorkelling over dead coral with plenty of live fish, sunset, barbecue, bioluminescent plankton (not spectacular but interesting). The staff were lovely and we really appreciated their hard work to make the tour fun.
The big problem - and I knocked two stars off for this - was that the speedboat was way way overcrowded. I counted 30 guests plus about 5 crew. Everybody was looking grumpy at the start and I’m sure that’s because people were thinking, “bloody hell, I didn’t think it would be this rammed”. It was difficult to move around on the boat and there was nowhere to put your stuff. So you have the unpleasant feeling, right from the off, that you’ve been ripped off.
So overall, because of the staff and some good experiences, three stars.

Fun afternoon but didn’t do 7 islands… - Lovely day out but did not get to see 7 islands. Probably did around 4? The snorkelling spots were disappointing on the day as visibility was very poor.
The island stops were generally very quick (first island onto 20 minutes)
Lovely sunset spot but be prepared for the crowd!
BBQ dinner was tasty and they had a veggie option. We were told we could get a beer for the sunset which was not the case.
We also sat at the front of the boat and were not warned that we would be soaked wet by the time we were at the first island due to the waves splashing in. Further seats back were much drier but people didn’t swap so if your boat is full you may be wet all day.
The bioluminescent plankton was a little disappointing as the images show these were vivid but in reality are a lot smaller. Good to do though and most of us went in the water for a couple of minutes for this part.

Bad experience, felt unsafe - We had a terrible time.
First they didnt pick us up at 12h30-13h00, but instead at 13h40 (and this after we sent message asking about our ride).
We only got on the boat near ~14h00. The boat itself was terrible, an old longboat with a sketchy improvised front engine, overpacked with people. There were strong winds and we thought maybe the trip would be called off, but the guides insisted on going. We had a scary trip to Railay Beach, with the boat almost flipping a few times. We decided to get off at Railay, since we didnt feel safe and the weather looked like it would only get worse. I think it was a good decision.
Do not recomend.
