Such a great day. Bas kept everyone happy and entertained, while Sumit eas the calm and fun supporting cast. Everyone was super helpful, the food was very tasty - especially the tempura pineapple and shrimp. Zala (or Sala) peddled the kayak with skill and he had a lot of good information. Truly had an excellent day. Bas is definitely your greatest asset - people were tipping more because he kept everyone laughing while also being super sweet and helpful with anyone who was scared or less mobile.

this was the best boat trip I've ever had the privilege to be on, the whole crew were very welcoming, friendly and attentive, Bas was a great host, he was funny and very entertaining. we sailed between islands, kayaked through a bat cave in to a beautiful lagoon, that I can only compare to heaven, visited James Bond Island, seen pyramid Island from Star Wars, visited Hong Island, kayaked in to another lagoon, both times with an amazing guide (I forget his name 😢), then we stopped and were allowed to kayak ourselves over to a small beach to see the monkeys. all in all this was a beautiful, perfect day, I would HIGHLY recommend this trip. thank you all so much for making it an unforgettable day 😍🇹🇭
What an amazing experience! We were met with a warm welcome right from the start and were well fed and watered throughout. So many highlights - 1. Our brilliant 50/50 😁 host Bas who kept us smiling all day. 2. Our superb kayaker Salah who safely squeezed us through all the caves. 3. Our first stop where we could paddle ourselves or swim up to a secluded beach. 4. ‘James Bond Island’ was busy but unforgettable, however, the highlights were still to come… 5. Squeezing through narrow rocks to enter hidden lagoons with incredible flora and geology. 6. Breathing in to squeeze into the bat cave before emerging into another unforgettable lagoon. Even a crazy rain storm on the way back couldn’t dampen our spirits. Great day, fantastic value. Best excursion ever? I think so.
Fantastic day! Bas and his team were great and looked after us. Fun and laughs guaranteed! Best day ever - value for money. Bas is an asset to the team and makes the day!
Absolutely incredible. The staff were amazing. The songs, food and service were outstanding. 10 stars. Saw James Bond island and lots of kayaking.
Highly Recommended – An Unforgettable Experience with Andaman Sea Kayak! What an adventure! This excursion was without a doubt one of the highlights of our trip to Phuket. We were picked up right on time from our hotel at around 9:10 AM, with just one quick stop to collect other guests. At the pier, we were warmly welcomed by Bas and Noi – both Thai, but each with their own unique strengths. Bas is a born entertainer, while Noi speaks perfect German and gave a clear and informative briefing. Onboard, we received an excellent explanation of the day’s itinerary. Any questions were welcomed and answered with patience and kindness. The food on the boat was delicious and of great quality. There were plenty of drinks available, and the restroom facilities were clean and well-maintained. Our first stop was introduced by Bas with the James Bond song “The Man with the Golden Gun” – his dancing and playful energy had everyone laughing, and the timing as he pointed out the rock formation was just perfect. After that, we enjoyed two guided canoe trips through the stunning mangroves of the Andaman Sea – simply breathtaking! Our guide Nan, nicknamed “the Schumacher of the water,” was not only skilled but also funny and incredibly creative. He made a flower and a ring out of a leaf for my partner – such a sweet and memorable gesture. Later on, we had the chance to paddle ourselves to Hong Island, with some free time to explore. On the way back to the pier, Bas put on a live show – dancing, jumping, and doing everything he could to make sure everyone had a great time. He got everyone involved and created such a fun atmosphere. Time flew by – before we knew it, it was already 6:00 PM. This excursion was flawlessly organized and truly unforgettable. A big thank you to the whole team at Andaman Sea Kayak. Special thanks to Bas and Nan – it definitely wouldn’t have been the same without them. Andaman Sea Kayak – please take good care of these amazing guys. They are worth their weight in gold! An absolute must-do for anyone visiting Phuket.
What an amazing day! 11/10 would recommend. BAS was superb, kept the whole boat entertained, MAX and SEVERN fantastic chatty and very informative! Food was astounding and having travelled would say that this is the best day trip I have had the pleasure of going on. Thank you guys, forever in our memories!
What an amazing trip - one of the best we have been on. The whole day was well organised and the staff onboard all great. We met Bas at the pier as he was our English speaking guide. More later 🙂 We visited islands in the Phang nga area and 3 lagoons via the sea kayaks which were paddled by guides. Our guide was Adam and you keep the same guide for all the lagoons. High five to Adam he spoke good English and made us laugh and smile through out but also an expert navigating some tight Channels through the rock. We stopped also for time to swim and take out a sea kayak if you wished- we did both and was great fun. Special mention to 123 , Max ,hope have his name correct. You made me giggle whenever we passed in the kayaks. Def get a waterproof phone case/cover at the pier or onboard as a must to have your phone with you for the amazing scenery in the lagoons. The guides also take pics of you with your phone on the kayaks. The entire trip was wonderful relaxed and at a gentle pace on the boat. All the staff are great at keeping you watered and fed and Thai meal was yummy and plenty of it. A huge mention goes to Bas who never stopped entertaining us. He is a huge part of the trip whilst on the boat and super funny. Really makes sure everyone is having a good time and offering to take photos of you on your own phones which is really nice. Take some cash as these people so deserve a tip at the end of the perfect day. Would totally recommend this trip if in Phuket. The chance to see beautiful scenery ,sail the sea , spend a day with a great crew who totally look after you what’s not to like. Huge thanks to all the crew especially Bas , Adam and 123 for making the trip such fun.
Bas and the team were wonderful hosts and shared interesting facts about the islands. Food was superb, kayaking and swimming is truly unique to Thailand. The trip back to port was full of laughing, singing and a perfect ending to a memorable day. Thank you!
Absolutely amazing day. I went solo and was instantly made to feel welcome by the team. Saw the most incredible sights, swam/kayaked in the emerald waters, saw everything from baby monkeys to mudskippers to toucans in the mangroves. My kayak man Sky was so lovely and showed me great sights - he has only learned English from working as a tour guide and let me tell you he is awesome! The food was great - I am vegan so was prepared not to eat much but at the beginning they checked who has allergies/dietary needs and went out of their way to cater for these. Entertainment was second to non - if you are lucky enough to get Baz then prepare for the most fabulous show!! Really cannot recommend these guys enough, one of the best days I have ever had! It was Songkran when I went and they celebrated amazingly. And remember - this is Thailand - be prepared to be at your hotel lobby 15 mins before pick up time for a long drive to and from the port while picking others up on the way if you are staying far away, be prepared for people being able to smoke downstairs on the boat, be prepared for Thai food as the meals, don't expect everyone to have perfect English - these are just things that come with Thai life!
Truly a fantastic day with Bas and the others. Beautiful trips by kayak to amazing lagoons with our friendly guide Adam, and entertainment by Bas on the big boat. Such a nice experience !!
Excellent day out with Bas..such a great guide..hilarious, efficient and entertaining. Do this trip! You wont regret it. Caves were great, food ample and delicious, and were constantly offered fluids. Our sea kayak guide, Sky..was lovely as well...chatty and fun!
Fantastic day trip to see beautiful scenery. The catering was perfect. Good Fun all round. Bas was just brilliant entertainment!!!!! The caves were thrilling!!! Attention to detail second to none. I would highly recommend to anyone, it has made my holiday so memorable. Thank you! Kob koon lean
It was a fantastic daytrip. The cooking and service on board was excellent. Our tourguides Bas and Sumit were very nice and much fun. The English and German was very good. A highlight was the tour with the kayaks to the lagoons and the view of the famous james bond rock. Our boatsman Sky did a perfect job with the kayak and told us many stories and showed us where to find the animals. We can highly recommend this trip. Thank you very much.
Our trip was absolutely fantastic from start to finish Max and Adam were our paddle tour guides and they were just incredible so attentive and kind making our day one to remember. The tour is so beautiful well worth the money the food Is delicious, make sure you bring along a towel everything else is taken care of! You won’t regret booking this trip it’s a full day and you will be well looked after.
This tour had it all, from hotel pickup, to clean and comfortable cruise vessel with great food and entertainment, to kayaking adventures, to breathtaking natural beauty. What I really liked was the opportunity to do a little kayaking and swimming on my own, followed by a guided tour of caves and lagoons where a staff member does all of the paddling. My guide, Bow, was friendly and informative addressing me by name which I regarded as a great personal touch. He also worked hard to maneuver our kayak into position for ideal photos of friends, paddling nearby. The long cruise from the pier on Phuket to James Bond Island seemed much shorter due to the many talents of our master of ceremonies, Bas. He was talented and enough to headline in Las Vegas and encouraged a lot of audience participation from children and adults alike. In many ways, he alone would have been worth the price of admission: an artist truly passionate about his craft! Food was served fresh and hot twice during the day with lots of local fruit and produce. In addition to complementary soft drinks, canned Thai beer was available for a modest price. And for the occasional rain burst, the crew sprang into action, lowering clear plastic barriers to keep the passengers dry. I have been on many all-day excursions around the world, but none was more impressive, inspiring, entertaining and well managed than Andaman Sea Kayak!
Well where do you start. Excellent day out from collection to drop off at our hotel. Our guide for the day was the one and only BAS this guy is brilliant always happy always smiling he really kept everyone informed and entertained. The crew are great we ended up with Suran the boss man he was fantastic as he guided us around the lagoons highlighting different things of interest. The food was very good and lots of it. Would 100% recommend doing this trip with this crew they were amazing. Well done and thank you from the Trotmans
Such an amazing day!! Seamlessly managed from pick up to drop home. The staff are amazing and make you feel very comfortable. The scenery is stunning and the onboard food and hospitality is exceptional. A special thanks to our kayak guide, Sky and the “superstar” host, Bas, who kept us laughing and entertained the entire day. An amazing experience I would recommend to anyone.
We did the Phangnga Bay tour yesterday. We were completely blown away. From hotel pick up to drop off our experience was way way beyond expectations. The boat, the food, the guides(ours was Adam and he was wonderful), and especially Bas(no spoilers here but he is a tour host like no other…amazing!) and then spectacular Phangnga Bay and it’s caves and islands. We will definitely do this tour again and highly recommend!
This tour was recommended to us by family and it did not disappoint! We loved everything about this tour from the boat, activities, guides and food! Going through the lagoons and caves was a surreal experience, it was like nothing I'd ever seen before. The views were amazing and the swimming spots were lovely. It can get a bit crowded with other tours kayaking, but if you've done any other island tour in Thailand you know that's just what to expect. In saying that, you didn't feel like it ruined the experience at all. The crew and guides were knowledgeable and extremely helpful and friendly. The boat itself was well equipped and comfortable (not like any of the speed boats or anything for Phi Phi). The food itself was delicious and catered for a range of requirements. A particular mention to our tour guide Bas who was so entertaining and made your time on the boat an experience in itself. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone.
I was sceptical thinking long day hot sun , how wrong were we , from the moment we arrived in our mini bus our host BAS , was there to greet us, he guided us to the boat and from that moment our adventure begun. Fun and games all the way , food fantastic cooked on board the kayak captain was SUPER GREAT pointed out all the points of interest. I would highly recommend this trip not sure you would GET BASS ask 1st he is a total entertainer he had the whole boat singing dancing in a great wat I’m 75 English man and loved the whole day All the crew were great on point Will book again as I said make sure you get the boat with BAS on it it’s a hoot . Doug and Debbie from U.K.
Everything about the day was wonderful from hotel transfer to Bas an outstanding tour guide and Mike our kayak guide. For someone who is really not that keen on boats and was worried about spending a whole day on one, let alone get in and out of a kayak, I can honestly say that it was a truly enjoyable day. Bas was extremely informative, professional and entertaining. All staff were courteous and happy to help you. On getting into the kayak and saying to our kayak guide Mike, that I was worried about it, he was kind and reassuring, which immediately made me feel at ease, he was also extremely professional and informative. The food was excellent too, and I would definitely recommend this wonderful trip. Thank you very much Andaman Sea Kayak.
My family and I did the full day cruise just before Christmas. We were staying in Phuket so a van transfer was included in the package. Upon arriving we were greeted by Bas and he immediately made us all feel comfortable and gave us lots of knowledge about the trip and the islands we passed. The kayak elements were amazing, we saw lots of bats and monkeys and the kayak guides gave us a fantastic tour of the islands. Visiting James Bond Island was amazing, and the swim at the final island was a great end to this trip. The lunch provided was a smorgasbord of excellent seafood, stir fries, chicken and vegetables. Something for everyone! I think what made the trip so special though was the service and entertainment that Bas and the team provided. So much fun, especially on the journey back to the pier! My two young children loved the day and the tours cater for people of all ages and abilities. A highlight of our trip to Thailand and a must-do for any traveller!
Incredibly interesting and fun day trip in Phang Nga Bay. Sensational program, even better staff, cool entertainment, very good food - it couldn't get better. Worth more than the money and highly recommended - we are currently on our way back to Phuket Island by boat.
It was a fantastic trip. Good English speaking guide who was so entertaining throughout the whole trip. Good crew and cute kayaking rorer. Delicious freshly made buffet on the boat and drinks throughout the trip. Can highly recommend and lots of photos were taken.
Beautiful discovery of Phang Nga Bay, with discovery of small deserted beaches, kayak rides in caves and lagoons, a day full of beautiful surprises and staff with great care. We had drinks available and brunch at noon, with choice and in sufficient quantity. The 2 downsides: the skewers served around 4:30-17:00 were too much (we really weren't hungry seeing brunch shortly before) and the stop off James Bond Island with staging with fake golden guns and the music of the movie, a little too much. Frankly I found the lagoons much more beautiful than this piece of tourist rock and of little interest. But overall I liked it and I have a very good memory. I just hope that all the leftover food was distributed to the staff and their families, and not thrown in the garbage...
We were picked up from the hotel on time, the trip to the excursion ship took about 1.5 hours. Here we were received very friendly by the guide Bob and his crew. After explaining the safety rules, there were chilled drinks and a preview of what to expect. After about half an hour of sailing by boat, the kayaks were launched for the first time and the paddle guides each took 2 people to the very impressive caves, lagoons and grottoes. Wild bats, birds and insects could be easily observed. Afterwards we went back to the ship, where 2 cooks who had been taken along prepared an excellent meal. After dinner we continued on to the next tour, again with the same paddle guides (who also like to jump in the water and took great photos of us), again to caves, grottos and lagoons. This time you could hear monkey screaming, I didn't see one. Afterwards drive to James Bond Island , in between good explanations from Bob about the origin of this incredible island archipelago. Information was also provided about the various Hollywood films that were shot here. Also opportunity for photos were given at any time. In between, coffee, drinks and fruit were offered. At the very end we headed for an island with a fantastic bay, which we could explore by kayak ourselves or you could swim ashore. This stop was only used by a few on board. Afterwards we slowly chugged back into the port of departure, where we were picked up by our van and taken back to the hotel. Bob, our guide gave us an interesting insight into this enchanting landscape with his funny way.
The pick-up service picked us up at the hotel on time. On the boat itself, we were well looked after and were able to enjoy the Andaman Sea all day. The guide Bob showed us the highlights (James Bond Island) and all the islands. Paddlers paddled us through the lagoons and showed us the beauty of nature.
This tour is highly recommended and the excursion was unique. The crew very well organized and very friendly and the food on the boat convinced
An amazing day exploring Phang Nga Bay National Park! The guides are superb, funny and helpful. A little extra with our TamTam guide native Thai but speaking impeccable French. His colleague Bas who knows how to set the Mood for boat crossings. And a big thank you to Sala our paddler who explained to us throughout the tour the history of the park, its fauna and flora. A complete experience with food and drink in abundance we were not lacking in anything. I recommend this excursion worthwhile and breathtaking.
