Such a wonderful and fun evening with the family at carnival Phuket. We were a large family party with various ages, and there was something fun for everyone. The show in particular was incredible. A must visit xx

Awesome trip to the Phi Phi Islands with Mr. Green 🌴☀️ We had an absolutely amazing day! The captain is top-notch, super friendly, and keeps the mood lively the whole time 👍 The scenery is incredible: between Bamboo Island and Maya Bay, it’s just stunning 😍 One small suggestion for improvement, in my opinion: it would be even better to spend a little more time on Koh Phi Phi Don to really enjoy it. And Monkey Island is less interesting, since you mostly see the monkeys from a distance. But overall, a wonderful experience that I highly recommend! 🌊✨

4 stars for a well organised itinerary and helpful staff. Downside was the over crowded boat with new room to move. Not comfortable especially over rough sea and no chance to see the passing scenery only when stopped for photo spots

Easy booking and smooth communication with the tour organizer. The tour was very well coordinated, and everything followed the itinerary exactly as planned with no changes at all. We were lucky to have perfect weather, calm sea conditions, and a great group of people on the boat that day. Overall, the tour was definitely worth the money. Kudos to our coordinator, Latte, and her amazing crew (Mr. Ya, Mr. Ram, and Mr. Josh) for making the tour enjoyable and well organized. Special thanks to Captain Jack for the safe and smooth navigation throughout the journey. Latte kept everyone entertained with informative sharing and light jokes, making the trip more fun and engaging. Snacks and food were served on time, and the team consistently ensured everyone stayed hydrated and comfortable. My wife and I do not know how to swim, but Mr. Josh took extra care of us during the snorkeling session and made sure we could still enjoy the breathtaking underwater view safely. The day ended perfectly with a beautiful sunset, making the entire experience truly memorable. Highly recommended tour and truly worth the money!
