We booked the tour through booking.com. On the drive to the boat we were with four adults and 5 children. That was a good group size. Our guide - Ivan - not a local himself, has been at our side - especially the participating children - in German at any time with advice and deed and gave some tips for the further holiday. That was very good. The whole day was very well plated, the individual spots well selected. Especially the rich and very good food in the stilt village should be highlighted here. We can recommend the tour - with our guide.
We expected a little more from this. Early Bird Tour means nothing when it is offered by around 60 other companies. Everything is still extremely crowded and rushed through. On Phi Phi, not even enough time to grab a Coffee after walking up and down to the View Point but spent 2 hours on horribly overcrowded Bamboo Island for Lunch. German Guide gave 0 Information about anything. I told other guests more about Phi Phi than he did. Worst part: The „breakfast Lounge“ - You get dropped of here at 5:45 in the Morning and are immediately surrounded by ALL people (300+) that also leave for Tours in a lounge that is maybe for 50 people. Almost had a fight to even get some Bananas for breakfast
We selected this trip from the hotel brochure and were not dissapointed.
We were picked up from the hotel by the aircon minibus and was greeted by "Volker" our tour guide. What a nice guy he is, very knowledgable, laid back, friendly and led us on an amazing tour through the day. He also took the time to take photographs for us all and made sure we had great memories of the day.
Lunch was served at the elephant sancturary and was a nice surprise in both quantity and quality.
This is a must do tour that offers excellent value with great experiences at a nice steady pace.
Amazing guide and driver ! They took time to spot so many things and identify them for us . The waterfall was beautiful and the lunch stop was fantastic. The best trip !
All-round successful day
