Tup Islands, located near Koh Phi Phi, are a pair of small isles connected by a sandy strip of land, visible only during low tide. This unique feature allows you to walk between the islands, surrounded by crystal-clear turquoise waters. Ideal for snorkeling and swimming, Tup Islands offer a tranquil escape with stunning views and abundant marine life. Feels like something out of a dream, right?
Chicken Island, also known as Koh Gai or Koh Poda Nok, is a fascinating isle located near Ao Nang in Krabi, Thailand. Its name comes from a rock formation that resembles the head of a chicken. This island offers clear turquoise waters, perfect for snorkeling and swimming. At low tide, you can walk along a sandbar connecting Chicken Island to nearby Koh Tub and Koh Mor. The unique natural beauty and vibrant marine life make it a must-visit spot. Picture-perfect, right? The tour guide will bring you to this place to do sightseeing, take photos and swim at the beach.
Poda Island, or Koh Poda, is a tranquil paradise located off the coast of Krabi, Thailand. Known for its stunning white sandy beach and crystal-clear waters, it offers a perfect spot for swimming, sunbathing, and snorkeling. The island is dominated by a tall limestone cliff that creates a dramatic backdrop against the azure sea. Its serene environment makes it an ideal escape from the hustle and bustle, allowing visitors to relax and soak in the natural beauty. A real gem, don't you think? The tour guide will bring you to this area to take photos of the chicken head pillar and do snorkeling. This island doesn't have a beach to land on.
Phra Nang Cave, located on the Railay Peninsula in Krabi, Thailand, is renowned for its stunning stalactite and stalagmite formations. This sacred cave, named after the princess goddess believed to reside there, is a popular spot for rock climbing and exploring. The beach nearby is equally breathtaking, with clear turquoise waters and dramatic limestone cliffs. It's a place where natural beauty and cultural significance blend seamlessly. Intriguing, right?
Excellent day we had. Well organised trip from start to finish. Lunch was included but unexpected. Worth every penny. Our host on the boat was Nadia. She was great, very helpful, informative and with us every step of our trip. A great company representative.
I participated on 2 one days tours. Both to recommend, staff helpful, friendly, food authentic, good and flexible timing
certainly this should not be left undone. lovely sea. scenic mountains in the sea. lots of snorkelling spots. pristine beaches. crowded and not crowded. but crowded are not bothering. very nice day trip
We had the most amazing day with Nadia and the crew on our day trip last week. They honestly couldn't do enough for us from start to finish. Such a fabulous tour, well worth the money and we'd definitely be booking more tours on our return next year. Highly recommend. Thanks to Nadia for being a great guide !
The trip was well organized and on time at every stop. Although the islands were very busy at this time of year, the guide and crew did a great job ensuring we all had a pleasant trip. Leo was fantastic and very engaging. It was a great way to spend the day!
I booked this tour with this company because they have assured me that was possible a menu gluten free for my daughter. At check in before to leave I asked again confirmation at our guide and she was a little bit confused. At the end, at time lunch there was nothing only for my daughter, many attention for vegetarian and not for her. Celiac disease it’s not a fashion! She had to eat only white rice! And also the other food was all spicy and poor when I ask another little little leg of chicken they said that was only 1 per person!… I came in Thailand many times and last year I went to Similan Islands and my daughter had a gluten free meal! I’m very very sorry for that. And for the rest 4 islands it’s a run, 20 minutes in every place… Never again!
4 Island Tour We are a group of friend and decided last minute to go for a 4 Island trip. We have ben accepted last minute. The tour has bern organized very professional and Mr Pyyr the guide on our long tail boat on 26.1.25 on 4 Island tour has made our journey! Very attentif very kind and we enjoyed his professional behaviour. Thank you !
It has been a fantastic experience . From the beginning at the counter , the advise and recommendations from the staff member were extremely helpful . And the tourist guide Nadia and her crew made the trip memorable . The food was delicious ! And the time ,arrivals and departure from among the islands was accurate! Nadia: energetic, positive , dynamic and always willing to help. I highly recommend this company in Krabi! Extremely satisfied. Gracias Nadia!!!
very badly organized to operator. They overloaded the people. After landing, we had to wait for almost 45 minutes before we got a car to get dropped. Food was not enough & just something random. choose another operator. Oh
Good experience. Poda Island is beautiful. We felt that the Hong Islands tour was better scenery- and beaches-wise than this one though.
The best tour ever all staff are cooperative They even have both option veg and no veg in food Picup and drop service was also good
I don't normally write reviews here, but this trip was SO BAD, I felt I must warn fellow travellers. I have a lot of experience travelling around Thailand. I used to live in Bangkok about 20 years ago and visited pretty much everywhere there is to go. I also have a friend who has a house near Krabi, so have been back to this area numerous times for holidays. I booked this trip because I'm a keen and experienced scuba diver. I had done a dive the day before and had one booked the day after, so went to one of the many booths along the main strip and asked for a day's snorkelling. I was severely mis-sold. Pickup from the hotel was at 0730 and an air-conditioned mini-bus arrived on time. It pretty much went downhill from there. Warning signs immediately started to form in the back of my mind when I checked that this was the bus for the snorkelling trip. "Four island trip", came the reply. "Well", I thought, "The girl at the booth did say we were visiting four islands", so in I got. We were taken to the nearby national nature reserve to a meeting point and told that our speedboat was number 7. Then we were taken to said boat and told to get in. This is where I had my first serious doubts. It was full. Fair enough, but I was going to be on stuck on this boat for the next 8 hours on a bench seat next to a complete stranger with skin on skin contact getting sweatier and sweatier. I should have refused to get on. But off we went. Because I was last to get in, I was right next to the twin 250cc outboard motors which made a hell of a racket, and I spent the next hour, yes HOUR with my fingers in my ears in an attempt to avoid tinnitus. During this time, I found out later that the Thai guide had explained the schedule for the day in broken English. Island 1: Nature trail Maya Beach The boat eventually approached the first of the islands. I had found out that this was a short visit with no swimming. As I saw the dozen or so boats flighting for mooring space on the floating pier I wondered exactly how many people were here. I was about to find out. The island itself is absolutely beautiful. I could see crocodile fish swimming in the crystal clear water as I walked to solid ground. However, to say it was packed is more than an understatement. There are boardwalks that take you on a short, circular route to the beach and back and it was a constant stream of tourists. Noisy and irritating. Far too many seemed unable to go to this lovely place without lighting up a cigarette. When I got to the white, sandy beach I was met with the absurd vision of hundreds of people getting their selfies to put online. If they went too far into the sea, they were admonished by whistle-blowing Thais and told to get out of the water. All this while the plastic bags gently tickled ones ankles. "BOAT SEVEN! BOAT SEVEN! WE MOVE NOW". We were ushered back to the boat. Island 2: Pileh Bay for swimming. I had done an island tour 20 years ago when my family came to visit. It was lovely. We had a long tail boat to ourselves which took us to amazing bays where we could jump in and see the abundant aquatic life. This time it was very different. Speedboats were crammed around the horseshoe-shaped bay. "OK! 25 MINUTES SWIMMING, THEN WE GO!", Shouted our guide. as our boat squeaked and squeezed against the others. 'Swimming' turned out to be stepping off the back of the boat and bobbing about like a cork as there was no possibility of completing a stroke without bumping into someone. I declined the opportunity. "Do you not like to swim?", asked a nice Muslim lady sitting across from me. "Not like this. This is absolute madness" I replied and got sympathetic smiles from other disillusioned passengers. "BOAT SEVEN! BOAT SEVEN! GET IN!" "WE GO TO MONKEY ISLAND, NO STOP, BUT TAKE PHOTO OF MONKEYS" On our way to the next island we went into a bay filled with exhaust fumes as the speedboats jockeyed for position so that the tourists could take pictures of the one bemused monkey sitting on a rock. Island 3: Hin Pae for snorkelling. "45 MINUTES SNORKELLING!!!" (Please stop shouting) This was the one that really upset me. I was the only one with my own gear so our guide noisily handed out the masks and snorkels to the others. The problem was that there were 10 boats filled with at least 20 tourists moored near a coral reef. That's 200 people. Many of which had obviously never been snorkelling before. Snorkelling is easy, but you must keep your face in the water. If you look up, your feet come down and you're standing on the coral. This kills it. I finally lost my temper so got back on the boat and pointed out to our guide what was happening. Once again the shouting started. Lunch: Phi Phi Don. When I lived in Thailand I loved Koh Phi Phi. It was sympathetically developed with a small hotel, bamboo huts and a few places to buy authentic Thai food. There was one boat every few days bringing and taking away tourists, and a dozen longtails were moored along the beach. This was not the island I remembered. Phi Phi has about a square mile of habitable space and every bit is now built on. Burger King and McDonalds now greet visitors as they approach from the dock. Second rate art shops compete with cannabis vendors and tat for space. I counted about 175 boats in the bay. "WE EAT LUNCH NOW 45 MINUTES. YOU SIT THERE!!!" I'm vegetarian, so had made sure that there was food available that I could eat. After a few slices of watermelon I went along the buffet, expecting maybe some pad Thai, or even just stir fried veg and rice. No. What was on offer was spaghetti with tomato sauce with a consistency of baby diarrhoea. I reluctantly put some on my plate and sat down to taste. Cold and very sweet. After spitting it out, I went to find the place where I would experience the highlight of my day: I had a wee. The toilets were very clean. "BOAT SEVEN! WE GO NOW!!!" ISLAND 4: Bamboo island. "YOU GO ON BEACH, RELAX 30 MINUTES!!!" I asked if I could stay on the boat as sitting in the blazing sun on red hot sand didn't appeal. A nice Canadian man had the same idea, so we had a bit of a chat and ate watermelon. After 30 minutes and more shouting we were FINALLY on our way home. I got back to my hotel at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon. The thing that I noticed was that the majority of the people seemed to have a perfectly good time. I really couldn't understand this. It seems to me that Phi Phi and the surrounding areas have been turned into a theme park, and a very destructive theme park at that. It was an awful experience. The backpackers have gone, replaced by people who queue. And if you have to queue for something, it isn't worth doing.
Really enjoyed this tour, the islands we visited are beautiful. The tour guides are very friendly and give you enough time to enjoy each island.
Viator messaged us while waiting for our pick up, that it will be late. Got to the check in and ALL the breakfast items were gone! When I inquired for more i was told “sorry no more”. Thank goodness we ate breakfast before we came. Crew was AMAZING!! Snorkelling not great because the spot intended to go too was crowded so the captain choose another spot. That spot was really rough, waves and too many boats rushing by. Spent time on some islands. Very busy and lots of tourist. Our boat passengers were frustrated that only 2 people could sit up front. Left the rest packing in not able to see out of the speed boat. Lunch on the island was ok. No music or beer allowed. Day was fun because of crew and its a beautiful country.
This tour was great. 4 hours, picked up from and dropped back at hotel. Great guide, nice boat, good tour guide, good food, well organised, and some beautiful views and snorkelling. I would especially recommend snorkelling just off the beach at Poda Island when you stop for lunch around the corner from where you eat - it was amazing! Would recommend.
Very friendly staff and tour guide (Tuan)! The food that was served was delicious and the islands were very beautiful as the water was very clear. Would definitely come back again to explore more of the islands next time!!
Great little tour round the 4 Islands with this group. Very well organised and clean boat with friendly crew and tour guide. The timing for the early departure mean you best the crowds to the spots . Heaps of great photo opportunities and incredible water for snorkelling. Buffet lunch on the beach was delicious and had lots of variety for everyone. Best lunch we have experienced on any tour throughout our trip. Highly recommend.
Had a great time discovering the four islands near Railay beach. The staff was very kind and joyful, Fee and Sunny were great tour guides, they explained everything in detail. The food was lovely.
The tour-guide Nadia was really nice, funny and pleasant. She explained everything very well during the tour. Would definitely recommend to go on a tour with her! The tour was amazing! So beautiful, dont miss it!
A nice and interesting trip in good weather. Thw snorkling was nice (could have been longer). The choice of food was good and tasty. And we had an excellent guide!
It was great experience with charming Nadia instructors they are funny as their accent are laughing us …
Helpfull guide, good food, amazing places. Only downside was the long wait before we eventually started the tour. Because of it only three islands were visited.
The overall experience was amazing.Beauty of all 4 islands are very mesmerizing. As a couple we could chesrish all these moments lifelong. Our tour guide from Rungtawan Mr. Lookman and his assistant were very supportive and cooperative. They have a very friendly nature. One who will come, can always look for them as their guide.
We take 4 lsland with gr rungtawan tour is very good very fan hotel in grat I m very lucky thank you so much for everything Nadia is my tour guide thank you
Raining day during the island hoping but tour guide Ms Nadia are friendly and made it a fun day and nice food. Exceptional service.
Incredible and well selected islands are shown during this tour! My girlfriend and I booked this tour since we hadn‘t much time left at Rai Leh. This activity is made for cases like this. The islands are beautiful and worth a visit. You have enough time on each one to swim, lay on the beach or just being stunned by the surrounding. The guide, Mr. Luan, was professional and knew how to share his knowledge on the different places. We felt very comfortable with him and the boat driver. Last but not least, we had tasty lunch and some drinks. I want to highlight that they offered two options for vegetarians and vegans. That‘s worth noting! I can clearly recommend GR Rungtawan Tour!
Brilliant day. Exceptional service...staff were friendly and made it a fun day. And great tasty lunch too
Very good trip planned for the group, completely loved the trip! Very good guided tour, amazing good and amazing experience. Thank you Wendy and Dream for being such amazing jovial guides!
The tour of the 4 islands we loved and allowed us to see beautiful beaches and snorkel. Very good guide named Maya and the organization in general. Lunch included was also very good. However, we would have liked to stay a little longer in the island where you eat to take a longer swim, because half an hour flies quickly and that is the best time!
The weather was good and the scenery was great. Boating is also comfortable. Boat snorkeling is once and a little lacking. Lunch was fried chicken and curry.
There are too many people on the islands. But they are charming. and the beautiful landscapes. The employees were very attentive in everything and took photos of us with our cell phones.
It was an excellent experience! The beaches, the water color, snorkeling and enjoying the places. In Phoda we stopped for longer and they gave us a very tasty lunch.
Really well organized. The stays on the islands were absolutely sufficient. There was something for everyone. The food was also very tasty.
Very serious, pick up at the hotel at the established time, the organization of the tour is perfect, it shows that they have been doing it for many years... in our case the only one but it was bad weather (rain) the guide that we had "MAX" was nice and attentive to any questions etc. a 10. The excursion is very good, I would say that it is essential if you are on the Krabi coast. 6 hours of enjoyment...I would definitely hire them again...
The walk was very good! The instructor Nádja was excellent and very fun. They served lunch on the beach, and it was great! Everyone very attentive.
The staff is very good, Nadya is very attentive, the time we dedicate to each place seems correct, I just wish Maya bay was the first visit because I think there should be fewer people, I also wish they had more variety of dishes to eat
Very happy with our exit, a dynamic team, kind, very attentive All shared happiness. Thanks to the whole team.
A very interesting tour by the quality of the sites visited as well as the animators. Excellent review, I recommend
Today I took a longtail boat trip to 4 islands. Very funny. I look forward to taking a longtail boat to see nature. The boat is very clean. Good service staff. Spa while diving. The guide gives full-time The food is delicious, not spicy because I don't eat spicy. I'm impressed. Next time I will definitely use the Service again.
Guide was great. Super instruction. Good food and beautiful islands. All in all was great. You have enough time to see the islands
It was a very nice boat and snorkel tour across 4 islands. Nadja, our guide, took care of your 14 international guests very friendly, prudent and with a lot of fun. At noon there was a delicious and sumptuous buffet on the beach. While swimming and snorkeling, everyone had a lot of fun and a big thank you to the whole team and the dedicated Nadja.
It was a very nice experience with fine people on the boat and the tour guide Leo could also speak good English. Actually a fantastic experience.
Impressive Guide, lots of travellers, service smile, speaking Thai and English to applause all along the way, delicious coconut lunch, a small buffet filled with fruit and snacks, highly recommended for beginners.
Great experience, great service and service Thanks to the staff / wandee 4 islands near Krabi Thrilling Beaches Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful
