Krabi Private Longtail Boat Island-Hopping Tour from Ao Nang

Shape an escape around Krabi islands, deciding how long to linger at each stop, wander the shoreline or simply take in the sea views.

Begin in Ao Nang on your own longtail boat, meet your local captain, then cruise across the bay with water and a fruit platter ready on board.

Use snorkel masks and life jackets to dive into clear water at island stops, taking in views below the surface as you explore the shallows.

Discover lagoons and beaches that feel far from the crowds, pausing for photos or time on the sand before heading on to the next stop.

Select a 4 hour private charter if you are short on time, or opt for a 6 hour route to linger longer between island stops and unhurried cruising.

Pick your route, from 3 island circuits to 3 islands plus Railay, 4 islands or a 7 island chain, tailoring how many places you visit in one trip.
