Krabi Tours

Overview

Dazzling... the only word for this Phi Phi tour by speedboat. Of all the Phi Phi Island tours from other locations, the tour from the Nopparat Tara Beach, Krabi near the National Park Head Quarters has the most dramatic scenery.

The cliffs and mountains of the mainland of Krabi are untouched and magnificent, the scenery of Phra Nang, Railay beach and the islands on the way out to Phi Phi are a magical delight before you start. When you arrive at the first of the Phi Phi Islands,(Bamboo island) in the north, you realize this is an area of exceptional beauty.

This intimate tour takes you from your hotel and after a small drive you arrive at the Koh Phi Phi Tour private pier at the estuary of a long and winding river system covered by one of the regions larger mangrove forests. Here you meet the guide and the other guests and board the speedboat for your adventure.

At Bamboo Island the beach is clean, shaded and tranquil, a fine location to explore a 400 meter circular island or take a dip or explore the coral reef. From here you visit Hin Klang, perhaps Phi Phi's best reef out in the in the middle of the sea. Weather conditions might make this stop limited as it is exposed and safety is the companies primary concern.

From Bamboo Island and Hin Klang the speedboat takes you to Monkey Beach, a remote setting on Phi Phi Don where you can explore the foreshore... just watch out for those mischievous monkeys....!. From here it is just 15 minutes to Tonsai Bay where an excellent lunch awaits you.

After lunch you head out to the key part of the tour, on out to the uninhabited Phi Phi Ley, an island of near complete cliff. The deep blue seas here are ideal for snorkeling and diving and make a perfect location for adventure. The highlights include the Viking Cave, Pi Ley, Loh Samah and of course Maya Bay.

Maya Bay is often referred to as the jewel Beach in the Phi Phi Islands. Vertical walls of limestone covered in a verdant tropical vegetation surround a near perfect lagoon with startlingly pretty beaches spotted around the edge. To cap it all the long coral reef has a multitude of coral gardens and a superb variety of marine life.
