Description

The James Bond Island tour by Longtail boat from Krabi is a great way to go sightseeing in beautiful Phang Nga Bay. This day trip is packed with sights and things to do: we take care of hotel transfers (air-conditioned minivans) from Krabi, Ao Nang, Klong Muang or Tub Kaek and bring you to the pier in Phang Nga, with a stop at the Monkey Cave. From the pier our longtail boat will bring you to James Bond Island & Khao Ping Gan, where you will see the famous rock from the James Bond movie 'The Man With The Golden Gun'. You will get some free time on the islands so you can explore them yourself.

    This was one of the best tours I’ve done! The guides were fantastic, and the scenery was beyond words. The caves were fascinating, and James Bond Island was like a dream. Lunch at the floating village was fresh and tasty. Don’t miss this tour if you’re in Krabi!

    Outstanding experience. Went on a traditional boat tour to hong island and we ended up with a fantastic guide and only 2 others on our boat. Only thing you could „complain“ about is that there will be other boats from other company’s too and it might get crowded.

  • Jimmy De groof

    We hadden een fantastische 4 eilanden tour gehad. Met een goede gids. Onze kinderen hebben van de speedboat genoten en het eiland hoppen. Alles liep zeer vlot en was prachtig verlopen

  • Wilfred Bouw

    Het was een zeer goed verzorgde excursie, vanaf het oppikken bij het hotel, tot aan de boot tot aan het eten, alles was netjes geregeld.. Absolute topdag gehad en een echte aanrader!

  • Gérard Michaud

    Très bonne organisation, guide efficace. Découverte des îles mais tour limité qui laisse de la place pour le snorkeling. Bon repas.

  • Jasmine Batchelor

    We had a lovely day on this snorkelling tour. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and made everyone feel welcome, and the boat itself was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, the visibility wasn't great due to the weather, which was outside the crew's control, so we weren't able to experience the reef at its best. My only suggestion would be to stop at a beach for lunch if conditions allow. Eating on the moving boat made me quite seasick, and I ended up feeling very unwell for the rest of the trip home and could not eat lunch. Despite that, the staff did a great job, and I appreciate their efforts in less-than-ideal weather conditions.
