About this experience

What better way to discover Krabi's paradise isles than by exciting speedboat tour. Zooming between palm-fringed beaches and towering rocks, you'll call by some of Thailand's standout gems like Koh Thap, Koh Ghai and Railay Beach. With plenty of time for swimming and snorkeling, you'll also enjoy a tasty lunch and visit the famous Diamond Cave.

After a sunrise start from Phuket, we'll hop into a speedboat and head out onto the water. Tearing through the sea, breeze blowing in your face, you'll tour Krabi's sun-soaked isles, swimming and snorkeling along the way.

You'll have free time to explore both Koh Thap and Koh Ghai – also known as Chicken Island, its striking bird-like shape is an impressive sight. Then after a tasty lunch, you can chill on the sands of Railay Beach before visiting the Diamond Cave – a maze of wooden walkways, packed with weird and wonderful rock formations.
