Explore Phi Phi Islands: Speedboat Tours from Phuket

Ferries are fine if you’ve got time to spare. But if you’re looking to make the most of your island day trip, a Phi Phi island tour by speed boat gets you there faster, with fewer crowds and way more flexibility. In just over an hour, you’ll be gliding over crystal waters, hopping off into hidden lagoons, and snorkeling in reefs that look straight out of a screensaver.

These tours are designed for travelers who want to skip the logistics and get straight to the good part. Whether you’re with friends, family, or a flying duo, it’s all about speed and smart time management.

What’s usually included in a speedboat tour?

Most tours are all-in-one packages, and here’s what they typically cover:

• Hotel pickup and drop-off from Phuket (central areas).
  
• Speedboat transfers to and from the islands.
  
• Multiple stops across Phi Phi’s highlights—like Maya Bay, Viking Cave, and Pileh Lagoon.
  
• Snorkeling gear: mask, fins, life vest (no need to bring your own unless you want to).
  
• Light buffet or boxed lunch, along with bottled water and snacks.
  
• Shaded seating areas.
  
• English-speaking guide to help you navigate the route and share local insights.

Is it safe for kids and families?

• Yes, absolutely. These tours are built with families in mind. All speedboats are licensed and come equipped with life jackets.
  
• Calm seas from November to April make this a particularly good time to visit if you’re traveling with kids.
  
• Children aged 4 and up can usually join. Make sure to check age restrictions before proceeding on a speedboat tour.
