Phi Phi + Maya Bay | VIP Excursion
Short description
Fast, Fun & Unforgettable: Explore Phi Phi & Bamboo Island in Style 🚤🌴
Looking for the ultimate island day trip from Phuket? Look no further.
The Phi Phi & Bamboo Island Speedboat Tour is your key to an all-in-one experience of crystal waters, tropical scenery, marine life, and island bliss.
Your day begins with the convenience of a hotel pickup and coffee at the pier, where you are in good hands with a friendly English-speaking guide who prepares you with all the help you'll need to make this day one to remember. Next up – off you go on a high-speed boat to head straight out into the Andaman Sea with the sea breeze in your hair and adventure in your heart ❤️🌊
First of all, there's the famous Maya Bay, where the film "The Beach" starring Leonardo DiCaprio was shot. Visualise yourself in a setting with majestic limestone cliffs, white sandy beaches, and turquoise water so surreal it's almost paradise. But after absorbing the beauty of Maya, be prepared to leap into the green waters of Pileh Lagoon, where you’ll be able to swim and float amidst the picturesque surroundings of steep cliffs. You will take a cruise through the enigmatic Viking Cave, and next, snorkel through colourful reefs and marine life around Phi Phi Don Island 🐠💙
Make a photo stop at Monkey Beach, where the playful macaques relax along the shore. Next, it’s time to rejuvenate with a mouthwatering Thai buffet lunch on the beach. Post lunch, either hang out around the area or hike your way to the renowned Phi Phi point for breathtaking views (optional and entrance fee not included).
The perfect finale? A laid-back sojourn at Bamboo Island (also known as Bounty Island), where white sandy beaches meet azure waters in a tranquil, picturesque paradise. Whether you are nature enthusiasts, Instagrammers, or simply someone who wishes for a perfect day at sea, this tour has everything.

Your day begins early with a smooth hotel pick-up and transfer to the pier, where calm sea breezes and a warm cup of tea or coffee set the mood for your tropical adventure. You meet your friendly English-speaking guide and get briefed on the day ahead. Everything feels effortless and exciting from the very start.
Soon, you’re stepping onto a modern speedboat, built for comfort and adventure. As the engines start, you glide across the crystal-clear waters of the Andaman Sea, watching Phuket fade into the distance, and exotic islands rise ahead 🚤🌴
Your first destination is none other than the famous Maya Bay — the filming location of The Beach with Leonardo DiCaprio. Surrounded by towering cliffs and impossibly blue water, this place is a dream come true. You’ll enjoy early access before it gets crowded, giving you space to explore, take photos, and simply breathe in the beauty. (Note: Maya Bay is closed to public access from August 1 to September 30, but sightseeing is still available.)
From there, the boat heads into the emerald heart of Pileh Lagoon — a peaceful, stunning natural pool surrounded by limestone cliffs. Here, you can jump from the boat, swim in warm turquoise water, or just float in silence. It’s one of the most relaxing and surreal places in all of Thailand 💦🌿
Next, you cruise by the mysterious Viking Cave, home to ancient paintings and traditional bird nest harvesting. The guide shares the story behind the cave as you capture it from the perfect angle 📸
Now, it’s time for snorkelling! Dive into the clear waters near Phi Phi Don Island, where colourful coral reefs and schools of tropical fish await. Whether you're a first-timer or an experienced snorkeller, the underwater world here is unforgettable 🐠🌈
Then, you'll stop near Monkey Beach for a chance to observe playful wild monkeys along the rocky shore. This photo-friendly moment adds a fun and unexpected twist to your journey 🐒
By midday, you arrive at Phi Phi Don, the only inhabited island in the group. Here, a beachfront restaurant serves a tasty Thai buffet lunch — full of local flavours, fresh seafood and refreshing drinks. After lunch, you have free time to relax, walk along the beach or take an optional hike to the famous viewpoint for stunning panoramic photos. (Viewpoint entrance not included.)
Finally, the boat takes you to Bamboo Island — also known as “Bounty Island” — where soft white sand, swaying palm trees and clear blue water create the perfect tropical escape. Here, you can swim, sunbathe, or just lie back and enjoy the moment before returning to Phuket 🏝️💛
As the boat cruises back to the pier around 16:30–17:00, you’ll feel sun-kissed, salty and full of unforgettable memories.
