McCormick Family James Bond Island Tour - From Booking to pick up was so easy and the team from Simba meet us with a friendly smile when arrived at the marina. The day was perfect Harry and his team looked after us through the whole day. Harry's knowledge of the arra was such a bonus. This was the 2nd time booking with Simba tours 2 years ago we did the Phi Phi Island sun rise tour 2 years ago so we didn't think twice about who we would book this tour with. Thanks again Simba Tours we will see you in another 2 years!

Great day, tour, and staff - Loved this tour of Phang Nga Bay, Simba Sea Tours, and our staff. Our tour guide, Harry, as well as the other staff, were friendly, positive, gracious, and knowledgeable. Harry shared his local knowledge of the area and ensured everyone had pictures, which he readily volunteered to take, to capture their memories. Food and soft drinks were good and ample. Lunch was better than I expected. Boat was comfortable, and tour size of 14 was perfect. Would highly recommend it, and I look forward to another tour with Simba for our next visit.

A great way to see the islands without the crowds! - There is so much to enjoy when you are on a small group cruise/tour of some of Phuket's beautiful islands. An early start means that you arrive before things get crowded, giving you time to explore and absorb the tranquility and majesty of the islands. Our guide, Harry (aka Ah Kok), was very helpful and knowledgeable, and our captain (Sit) and deckhand (Em) worked hard to make sure we had a truly wonderful day out! We were kept endless refreshed with water and soft drinks and nibbles, with many opportunities to dive into the emerald green water to cool off. Highlights included time on the lesser visited islands where one can get a better feel for the local vibe. The crew provide beach mats to allow you to sit on the sand and either sunbathe or find a patch of shade to relax. Remember to stay hydrated especially if you are visiting in the hotter months.

Another Incredible Trip from Simba Sea Trips! - This is our second review for Simba Sea Trips following the Phi Phi Sunrise tour we did with them a couple of days earlier! On balance (and it's very hard to choose as both trips were fantastic), I'd say this one was our favourite for a few reasons. Firstly, the boat wasn't full so we had a little more space which we preferred. Most of all, the places we visited were not nearly as busy as the Phi Phi Sunrise tour so that made it feel more special to us. Anyway, onto the review! After a quick breakfast at the Soho Pool Club, we boarded the boat and headed off to our first stop at Koh Phanak. Here, we disembarked from the boat onto a little beach to be greeted by a couple of monkeys above us in the trees! We waded through the sea into a cave (with hardhats and torches-a great look!). After a 5-10 min walk through the cave, it opened out into a stunning area with mangroves and rock formations resembling all kinds of animals. From here, it was back onto the boat to head over to Koh Hong to jump on a canoe for 20 mins to see views of limestone caves and rock formations. Our canoeist was super friendly, pointing out all the highlights, taking photos of us and also gave me a paper ring (see pictures). It made for a memorable excursion. Next stop was Koh Phing Kan and Koh Tapu (or James Bond Island to most uneducated people like us😜). This was another highlight for a couple that remembers the bond film and being blown away from the rock formations. The guys running the tour were on hand throughout the trip to offer to take pictures and for James Bond Island they brought along a few things to raise a smile! From James Bond Island, we took a quick boat ride over to Secret Hong. A place where we could swim into a hidden cave and also to an empty beach. It was great to cool off in the sea and also heat up on the beach! Next on the tour was Lunch at Koh Yao Noi where a delicious selection of food was served and you had the option to order additional drinks (alcohol, tea, coffee, etc) in addition to the water provided. A short truck ride to another beach and a walk down the longest jetty in the world (that's my belief anyway!!!) and then it was back on the boat for the next stop. The final stop was Kadu Beach where we had around 45 mins to relax on a small beach that only had the people from our trip and a handful of others so it was lovely and relaxing (apart from the Fruit Bats that were in the trees making a racket😂-there were hundreds of them and it was a spectacle) and then it was back on the boat to head to back to the Soho Pool Club. As with the Phi Phi Sunrise trip, the crew were fantastic. The lead for the tour (Harry) was fantastic. Not only did he keep us all informed as to where we were heading and what we'd be doing. He educated us about each area but also about Thailand and how it was being run. It was a privilege to receive his insight. This trip also had the amazing coconut rice and banana bread that the Phi Phi Sunrise trip also had. These delights are worth the trip alone but overall, we could not fault anything with the tour. Absolutely worth every penny. Thank you Harry (and the rest of the crew) for such an amazing trip.

Amazing Trip With a Great Crew! - We chose Simba because we wanted to get ahead of the big crowds and travel with a smaller group, and I must say we wasn't dissapointed. We didn't mind the early morning pick-up and we loved how well organised the trip was. The staff on board were fantastic!! Big thank you to Harry for being such an amazing host... giving us information, taking photos of us at every opportunity and making sure we had the best experience... even with a bit of rain at the start, he made sure to adjust the itinerary a bit so we could enjoy certain parts when the weather quickly improved. Also thank you to Leonardo Cappaccino 😆 who was great fun and made sure we was well looked after. All together we had a fantastic time and we couldn't recommend Simba more. A big thank you from Dan & Dilla!!

A must do when you visit Phuket for the first time ... - A fabulous experience, the landscape is worthy of all the movies that were filmed here. The Simba crew is very helpful and friendly. The journey captain is an exceptional host. I highly recommend this one day trip for everyone coming to Phuket for the first time

Amazing Experience. Hard - Great experience, beautiful islands. The crew was very friendly and professional. Mr. Harry is the best tour guide we have had so far. He took care of every detail. The food was delicious also. I'm hardly recommend this tour.

Highly recommend - This trip was so lovely and peaceful, i preferred it to Phi Phi (although still highly recommend both) we got to see some beautiful islands without any crowds at all. We also stopped for a lovely lunch at a Thai restaurant. Simba have organised some well thought of tours and I highly recommend them.
