Itinerary
Day 1
Full-day speedboat island-hopping trip visiting Phi Phi's lagoons and beaches, with time for snorkeling and a beach break on Khai Island. Round-trip minibus transfers included; tour departs in the morning and returns in the afternoon.
Pileh Lagoon & Monkey Beach (Phi Phi) — scenic stops, swimming & snorkeling
Begin the day with transfers and speedboat ride to the Phi Phi islands. Stop at Pileh Lagoon for sheltered swimming and snorkeling in a clear lagoon, then visit Monkey Beach to observe the island's wild macaques from a safe distance. Includes short swim/snorkel stops and photo opportunities; follow guide instructions around wildlife.
Tips from local experts:
- Secure loose items and phones in a waterproof pouch — monkeys are curious and may grab unattended items.
- Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a rash vest for extended snorkeling; guides provide life jackets and basic snorkel gear.
- Listen to the guide's safety brief before entering the water and follow designated swim zones to protect coral and wildlife.
Maya Bay (Phi Phi Leh) — beach stop and photo opportunity
Visit the famous Maya Bay on Phi Phi Leh for a beach stop, photos, and a swim in clear waters. Time at the bay is for relaxation and photography; follow national park rules and the guide’s directions while ashore.
Tips from local experts:
- Bring a lightweight towel and quick-dry shirt for a short beach walk — shoes can be sandy and slippery.
- Respect national park signage: do not step on or remove coral, and avoid littering to protect the site.
- Peak photo times fill quickly — arrive promptly at the scheduled time for unobstructed views and photos.
Phi Phi Don — walking street, shopping & buffet lunch
Arrive at Ko Phi Phi Don for time on the main island to explore the popular walking street (shops and small boutiques) and enjoy the included buffet lunch. Time allocated for a relaxed stroll, souvenir shopping, and a sit-down meal before the afternoon snorkeling stop.
Tips from local experts:
- Carry small-change cash for street vendors and tips — some local stalls are cash-only.
- If you need changing facilities, use the pier restrooms or the restaurant serving the buffet; bring a dry change of clothes for the return trip.
- Keep phones and valuables secured while exploring; busy streets are crowded at midday and smaller shops may not have secure storage.
Khai Island — snorkeling, coral reefs & beach relaxation
End the island-hopping with a stop at Khai Island for snorkeling over coral reefs or relaxing on the sandy beach. Enjoy fresh fruit, soft drinks, and the final swim/snorkel session before returning to the pier for your minibus transfer back.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear reef-safe sunscreen and water shoes for rocky entry points; use provided life jackets if not a confident swimmer.
- Charge or secure cameras and phones before this stop — clear water and shallow reefs are great for photos but bring a waterproof case.
- Collect all personal items before boarding the final boat; confirm the return pickup point and approximate arrival time with the guide.
