Great day spent well - A great day spent well. We went to some beautiful islands on a great day and had fun. The only shortcoming was that the transit itself takes a while and felt that it wasn't organised well. The lunch was superb and tour guide was very informative. I would give it a miss if Phi Phi is in your itinerary as its more or less the same thing if you don't have time.

Perfect day on the water. - Wonderful day! Nadia was our guide and she was a delight and even helped us get some Instagram shots!. Definitely worth taking a speed boat from Ao Nang beach to Hong Island as it is much faster. Smooth water on way there and a bit choppy on way back. Lunch was delicious! Plenty of water and sodas for everyone. Good value for this tour.

Nice tour - The tour was good, with nice points. But we didn't visit one of the stops mentioned in the description (can't say which one). The guide explained the reason but since I was at the other end of the boat, I couldn't understand what he said.

Enjoyable speedboat trip - Our tour guide 'M' and all the crew were excellent, friendly and knowledgeable. Unlike a previous trip with another operator, this was not rushed and we were well looked after. Due to the tides, the snorkelling wasn't as good as expected - my reason for not giving 5 stars - and that's not the fault of the company. Locations visited were beautiful. Good lunch provided with plenty of choice. Would have been better if the passengers from Railay had been picked up first as it was in the wrong direction from Ao Nang.

A great day out. - The weather was ideal for the speedboat rides. Snorkelling was ok, just a few jellyfish stings were uncomfortable afterwards. Due to the tides we went to Hong Island after lunch. I liked the lunch stop island and Emerald Pool visit too. All the island stops are very scenic. Quite a lot of tourists but this didn’t spoil the trip or the views. Hong Island was lovely, I would go again when the tide is up earlier in the day so the trail and view point are cooler. Nice cafe and restrooms. Amazing white sand and blue sea. Boat team are great.

Good, but not great! - The tour was well organised, however we were left a little disappointed by the stops prior to Hong Island itself. The lunch was nice, and our tour guide was great! Overall, we would have preferred to have gone straight to Hong Island as this is definitely worth a visit, we loved it there! Also, just to note the speedboat can be a little cosy when at full capacity.

Very disappointed - We were very disappointed in this tour. While the Speed Boat got you from place to place quickly, you could not enjoy the view as to look out you had to stand, which wasn’t allowed or safe while moving. In the Hong inlet there is only one way in and the same narrow passage out. Hundreds of boats visit daily, therefore it was crowded. Again we had to get on our knees on the benches to look out and try to get a picture. Where we snorkelled it was very murky and the coral is pretty much dead. The lunch was good, and the guide, Peachy?, was excellent. Also the driver and the other assistant. If going again I would recommend the long boat so you could see something other than the people sitting across from you.
