Description
When it comes to experiencing the sheer natural beauty of Thailand, there are few adventures as captivating as the 4 Island Tour by longtail boat. At Koh Tour Krabi, we're here to guide you through this remarkable journey, giving you a taste of the stunning landscapes, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant marine life that await you in the beautiful region. Tup Island, also known as Koh Tup, is a gem awaiting your discovery. Connected to Mor Island by a sandbar known as "Talay Waek", it creates a unique natural phenomenon during low tide, where the two islands here appear as a single landmass.

FAQs
For lunch during the 4 Islands tour you can expect a delicious Thai-style buffet, served on the beach. You’ll have several (halal) choices like a curry, Pad Thai, stir fried, chicken & eggs and a dessert. The food is halal. If you have any specific food allergies, please let us know prior to booking this tour.
Unfortunately you can't. The longtail boats can be unstable when the wind is strong. The movements are not suitable for an unborn child, therefore we don't allow pregnant women on board.
The best time to visit the 4 Islands is just after the rainy season, which ends in November. Temperatures are pleasant during the months November - March, and the seas are usually calm. The blue skies are perfect for photo opportunities during these months.
Absolutely! The 4 Islands are not too far away from Ao Nang and there is enough to see and do on the way. Your children will love snorkeling and playing on the beach. We think that this is one of the best tours to do with kids while staying in Krabi.

A very good value tour. The longtail boat ride itself was fun. All 4 stops were idyllc. And our guide was so lovely, thank you Cheena (sp?).

The 4 Island your was great. The speedboat ride was an adventure in itself. The islands were gorgeous, but I wish we had more time to explore each one. Some of the snorkeling equipment was a bit worn out, which was disappointing. Overall, it was a memorable experience, but a few improvements could make it even better.

This tour was absolutely amazing! We visited four beautiful islands, all with their own unique charm. The longtail boat was comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. We had plenty of time to swim, snorkel, and relax on the beach. The lunch was also delicious. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Krabi!
