From Phuket: Phi Phi & Bamboo Islands Speedboat Tour with Snorkeling and Lunch

Explore Phi Phi and Bamboo Island on a full-day speedboat tour with guided snorkeling, round-trip transfers, and lunch on Phi Phi Don.

Getting started

Get picked up from your hotel or Airbnb in Phuket Province by air-conditioned minivan as per your selected 08:30am or AM departure time slot. Travel to the pier, check in, and meet your expert English-speaking guide before boarding the speedboat. After a short briefing and distribution of snorkeling equipment and seasickness pills, you set off toward the Phi Phi Islands.

What to expect

Phi Phi Leh

Phi Phi Leh is known for its dramatic limestone cliffs and turquoise water, forming the scenic backdrop to several key stops.

Features

• Your speedboat navigates around Phi Phi Leh so you can see its sheer rock walls rising from the sea and the sheltered coves that made this island world-famous.
• Near Viking Cave, you snorkel among colorful marine life, using the provided snorkeling equipment, while your guide points out coral formations and fish species visible in the clear water.
• At Monkey Beach, you enjoy sightseeing from the boat and can watch the wild macaques along the shoreline during a snorkeling stop in the surrounding waters.

Maya Bay

Maya Bay, made famous by the movie "The Beach," is one of the signature locations of your Phi Phi Leh visit.

Features

• The boat stops at Maya Bay so you can take in the enclosed bay, ringed by limestone cliffs and bright, shallow water that featured in the film.
• Your expert English-speaking guide shares practical information about the bay and helps organize timing so everyone can enjoy the stop efficiently.

Pileh Lagoon

Pileh Lagoon offers sheltered, emerald water surrounded by rock formations.

Features

• At Pileh Lagoon, the boat pauses so you can see the lagoon's crystal-clear emerald water and the near-vertical cliffs that encircle this natural pool.
• There is time here for swimming from the boat, with your guide on hand to assist and with travel insurance and local taxes already taken care of in your booking.

Phi Phi Don

Phi Phi Don is the main inhabited island in the group and the setting for your midday break.

Features

• You land on Phi Phi Don for a beachfront lunch, with a buffet that includes vegetarian options, vegan options, and halal choices, as well as included beverages like bottled water and other light refreshments.
• Fresh fruit, morning tea and coffee, and additional light refreshments are available during the day, so you can refuel between island stops.
• Round-trip hotel transfers by minivan, combined with the speedboat schedule to and from Phi Phi Don, keep your day organized from pickup to return.

Bamboo Island

Bamboo Island is a smaller island known for its beach and surrounding clear water.

Features

• During the Bamboo Island stop, you can relax on the powder-soft white-sand beach or swim in the surrounding crystal-clear waters that frame this compact island.
• Snorkeling equipment and an optional seasickness pill are provided for use here and throughout the day, and your inclusion of travel insurance and local taxes means no extra arrangements are needed for these basics.

Wrapping up

At the end of the final island stop, the speedboat returns you to the pier, where your minivan awaits for round-trip transfers back to your hotel or Airbnb in Phuket Province, concluding your selected morning or 08:30am departure time slot experience.
