“Phi Phi is the popular tour but this was a GEM. The waters in both islands were beautiful and so so clear. There were sooo many fishes by the shore alone. There was no rush to tick boxes, and we were given 2-3h at each island to relax and have free time. There was an optional snorkel part where the boat took the ones who wanted to snorkel, to an area where the underwater life was beautiful. Pick up was punctual, free drinks on the boat, everything felt safe and enjoyable. Best part was the clear waters, and no overcrowding.”
