Dreaming of a peaceful island adventure away from the tourist crowds in Phuket? This is it. Join us as we take you on TWO private longtail boat tours through some of the most breathtaking and lesser-known islands in Phang Nga Bay and around the Hong Islands region.
We booked both tours directly from our hotel on Koh Yao Noi, a laid-back island just a short boat ride from Phuket—perfect for escaping the chaos and exploring nature in peace.
🪨 Towering limestone cliffs, hidden lagoons, jungle trails, snorkeling spots, and quiet beaches await—all without the big tour groups.
💬 Here’s What You’ll Experience in This Video:
🌄 Day 1 – The Hidden Gems Tour (3,500 Baht)
This route took us deep into the wilder side of Phang Nga Bay, where every stop felt like a scene from a movie—untouched, dramatic, and full of surprises:
• Koh Phanak – Famous for its secret caves and towering limestone formations
• Koh Hong (Phang Nga) – A peaceful kayaking spot surrounded by cliffs
• Koh Roi – A hidden mangrove forest tucked inside a limestone circle
• Koh Ku Du – A pair of mysterious, quiet islands where we had entire beaches all to ourselves
🌅 Day 2 – The Scenic Route (2,500 Baht)
We set off at sunrise and cruised across calm waters to discover some of the most beautiful, serene islands in the Andaman Sea:
• Koh Hong (Krabi side) – Home to a hidden lagoon and one of the best viewpoint hikes we’ve done
• Koh Lao Lading – A stunning little cove surrounded by cliffs
• Koh Pakbia – A postcard-perfect sandbar island
• Koh Ka Mit – Also known as Monkey Island 🐒
• Koh Han Tu – A dramatic limestone island with dagger-like rock formations
🚤 Private Longtail Boat Vibes:
No big groups, no blasting music—just you, your captain, and the open sea. We’ll show you what it’s really like to have a private boat all to yourself for the day.
🐠 Snorkeling, Kayaking & Nature Trails:
Jump into turquoise water, paddle through mangrove lagoons, and wander quiet forest trails surrounded by limestone cliffs.
📍 How to Book It All From Koh Yao Noi:
We’ll walk you through how we arranged both tours directly through our hotel (super easy!) and share tips on cost, timing, and what to bring.
🏝️ Why This Beats a Tour From Phuket:
We’ll show you exactly why starting your island hopping adventure from Koh Yao Noi is more peaceful, more affordable, and way more special than the typical Phuket route.
