Icon Tour Locations

Our early bird tour from Phuket will stop first at Maya Bay. The Phi Phi Islands are an extremely popular destination, and Maya Bay is the most iconic beach in the islands, so naturally crowds can form there-especially during the peak season. We can’t promise you the beach to yourself, but we can promise there will be fewer people there earlier in the morning. After visiting Maya Bay we will spend the remainder of the tour exploring all the other spots Koh Phi Phi has to offer, some examples are Monkey Beach, Viking Cave, Pileh Lagoon, Loh Samah Beach and much much more.

We don’t follow a fixed schedule or tour route, your tour guide will plan the best route for you while factoring in the dynamic nature of the Phi Phi Islands, considering things like anticipated crowds, busy areas, tide times, sea conditions, national park restrictions, and of course-guests are able to provide their own input to and customize the route to their preferences. Please note that beach access is prohibited at Maya Bay during August, and October each year.

👋 Bamboo Island and Khai Island

Chartering a private speedboat is the quickest way to travel the Phi Phi islands. We even have enough time to include some additional islands too! Bamboo Island is in the north of Koh Phi Phi, and Khai Island is in the east. We’ll pick one of these islands to stop along the way. Your tour guide will decide the best island to stop at based on the sea conditions and your personal preferences. Occasionally Bamboo Island is inaccessible due to the wave heights around the island. There is no additional charge to include these islands with our private speedboat tours.

Tour Meeting Details Phi Phi Island Tour Phuket Starting Locations:

Hotel collection is included with this tour, from anywhere in mainland Phuket, including Patong, Kata, Phuket Town or any other mainland location. This tour is not suitable for guests staying on Coconut Island. Our driver will meet you in the morning and the start time can be customised to your preferences. We usually start the tour from the Asia Marina Pier Harbour in the south of Phuket, although this is subject to change. From most resorts in Phuket the travel time to the harbour is approximately one hour, however the exact time depends on the location of your accommodation. On this tour you’ll use the same boat to travel to the Phi Phi Islands as you will for the tour, so there is no need to change boats when you arrive at Koh Phi Phi.

Guests who are staying in an Airbnb accommodation can provide a link to the properties booking page instead of a hotel name.
