Icon About The Tour

Phang Nga Bay is one of the most iconic and well known destinations in Thailands. The region was used as the filming location for the classic James Bond movie; The Man with a Golden Gun (1993). As the area is near to Phuket itโ€™s an ideal location to visit on a day tour. Choosing a private tour allows travelers to get a local insight into the area and learn more about the places they are visiting.

Icon Tour Route

The โ€˜James Bond Islandโ€™ is the most well known location on this tour, so of course weโ€™ll make a stop there to take photos. But there are some other spots in the Phang Nga Park that we visit too. We usually make up to 7 different stops on this tour, but as the tour is private the exact itinerary remains flexible. Places which we can include on the itinerary for the James Bond tour are Koh Tapu, Koh Panak, Koh Panyee, Lod Cave and the Samet Nangshe Viewpoint amongst other locations.

Trust our local knowledge, we will prepare a custom tour route each day while taking into account the dynamic factors like the weather, tide times and, although itโ€™s not always possible, we do our best to avoid crowds as much as possible. Your guide will plan the route for your tour, and guests will be able to provide their own input for customizations.
