Honestly amazing from start to finish we saw so much and I couldn’t rate it highly enough. Ran was an amazing guide and Mos the driver was also lovely. Something we will remember forever!

The trip was super - tour guide was lovely and very knowledgeable. Felt very safe with small children. Only criticism would be the van used for transportation was incredibly uncomfortable and old which was hard for about 3/3.5 hours of travel in the van.

Full description

Explore some of Thailand's most iconic and stunning islands on a longtail boat cruise from Khao Lak. Cruise over turquoise waters, past lush mangroves, and see the famous James Bond Island up close. Feel the salty breeze in your hair and relax under the warm tropical sun en route.
After a pickup from your hotel in Khao Lak, board a traditional longtail boat and experience the mangrove forests and karst formations from a different perspective. Get up close to the limestone rocks on a short canoe trip before heading to Khao Phing Kan.
Marvel at rock formations such as Tapu Island and James Bond Island, used as a film location in the movie "The Man With the Golden Gun." Continue to the floating Muslim village of Koh Panyi, where you will enjoy a delicious lunch.
Next, go to Suwan Khuha Cave Temple to see the statue of the reclining Golden Buddha. Get some time to feed the resident monkeys before the return trip to Khao Lak.

Brilliant day trip. My favourite bit was the canoe ride - through the mangroves, in the caves, seeing monkeys. Lunch and the floating village is awesome, take some cash or your card so you can buy all sorts of trinkets like shells and earrings etc. James Bond island is beautiful, lots of people just there for photos and people get annoyed if you get in their way which is quite sad as it’s so busy and children will of course just keep walking. Patience is a must if you do decide to go there.
