Rondvaart in Phuket

The tour kicked off great!!! Dee was a fantastic guide. The spots we stopped at for swimming and snorkeling were incredible. Early morning was perfect to avoid the crowds, but the sun wasn't shining in Maya Bay. Still beautiful! Food service from the boat crew was awesome. Cold sodas too. However, the last stop at Rang Yai Island was disappointing. Trash everywhere on the beach, a monkey on a leash, messy. Couldn't swim. Yuck. The final Thai buffet lunch back at the club was great. Nice to see so many healthy corals, fish, and baby sharks!

Absolutely fabulous, from the air-conditioned car that picked us up, to the breakfast "snack" (eggs and toast included) at the marina, to the super clean boat (they rinsed off the salt and sand after our snorkeling and beach walks), to our INCREDIBLE guide, Momo, who was funny, kind, knowledgeable, and always looked after us in and out of the water (she even snorkeled over sharp rocks to retrieve my friend's RX glasses after they fell in the water - and she found them!). And of course, the water was warm and turquoise, the fish and sea creatures were amazing, and the white sandy beaches were so inviting! Best of all, we got to see the sunrise over the islands with only a handful of other people, in a spot known for its huge crowds. I HIGHLY recommend the sunrise cruise with Simba.
