- Simba Sea Trips Co; Ltd - Phuket Boat Tours - Embark from Phuket’s most convenient marina
- Maya Bay - The first magical sight on the Phi Phi Island Tour - Maya Bay has been a “must-see” destination for countless tourists over the years, leading to its overuse. Fortunately, the National Park restricted boats from anchoring in the bay and accessing the beach from 2018 to the end of 2021, allowing the stunning coral island, wildlife, and environment to rejuvenate. At Simba, you will be among the first to arrive at this breathtaking bay, leaving the first footprints of the day on its pristine white sand.
In August and September, the Phi Phi National Park closes Maya Bay to visitors to allow the ecosystem to rejuvenate. During these months, the beautiful Bamboo Island is visited instead.
- Pileh Bay - The tour’s emerald jewel, Pi Leh Lagoon - Tide Dependent Our next stop on the sunrise tour, if the tide permits, is Pileh Lagoon before the crowds gather. This magnificent emerald-green lagoon is encircled by towering limestone cliffs on three sides and is one of the world’s most stunning natural swimming pools. Capture the breathtaking view of the emerald waters blending with the caves and the clear blue horizon with your action camera.
- Viking Cave - Discover the secrets of the Phi Phi Islands - Macaque Monkeys and the Viking Cave During the tour, we will pause at a local beach to observe the monkey troop. For safety, we remain on the boat while watching these adorable long-tailed macaques on the monkey beach. For animal enthusiasts, this is a highlight of the tour! The Viking Cave houses the special bird’s nests used for bird’s nest soup. While entry into this vast cave is not possible, we will show you from the outside, where you can see the armed guards protecting the birds’ nests from poachers!
- Nui Beach - Explore the Phi Phi Islands underwater - 1st Snorkeling Stop It’s time to delve into the enchanting underwater world with swimming and snorkeling during our speedboat tour. We provide all snorkeling gear, including fins and flotation aids like life jackets and swim noodles. The staff are always available (in and out of the water) to assist first-timers with encouragement, advice, and sometimes a helping hand throughout the day tour. In and around Phi Phi’s waters, reef sharks are commonly seen, and occasionally whale sharks, dolphins, and whales make an appearance. With luck, these may be spotted on the tour!
- Monkey Beach - Discover the secrets of the Phi Phi Islands - Macaque Monkeys and the Viking Cave During the tour, we will pause at a local beach to observe the monkey troop. For safety, we remain on the boat while watching these adorable long-tailed macaques on the monkey beach. For animal enthusiasts, this is a highlight of the tour!

While entry into this vast cave is not possible, we will show you from the outside, where you can see the armed guards protecting the birds’ nests from poachers!
- Monkey Beach - Islands and Crystal Waters - 2nd Snorkeling Stop It’s time to greet the fish again with another snorkeling stop on our Phi Phi Island Tour. Depending on tide and weather conditions, snorkel through some caves to discover amazing schools of baby fish seeking refuge from predators.
- Ko Rang Yai - Tours require relaxation time - Bamboo Beach or Koh Rang Yai, Our second-to-last stop on your Phi Phi Islands tour is chosen based on the day’s conditions, with our crew selecting between two idyllic tropical islands. Bamboo Island or Koh Rang Yai Here, you can swim, sunbathe, relax, and enjoy the scenery. Both are true paradise islands with crystal-clear, calm waters, picturesque palm trees, and soft white sand. Take your time to appreciate the island’s beauty at one of the world’s most stunning beaches and conclude your day perfectly.

Memorable Trip - This was our best ever trip by far . A very professional set up ensures you are free to enjoy the fantastic sights of the islands in a small group ahead of most other tourist boats which requires that precious 6.00 am start . During the trip the crew could not have been more helpful with Momo as guide providing a wealth of information , camera shots at each location in conjunction with the captain Dan and 2 other crew to look after you . After a breakfast on shore there followed an almost endless stream of fruit , snacks starting on Phi Phi island with local banana bread and sticky rice in banana leaves . With superb snorkelling spots , so many different fish , a classic beach stop and a high quality buffet lunch of local food , this was a memorable trip , not forgetting the high speed run to the islands under the seamanship of Captain Dan , exciting but always safe and only a viewing stop from the boat at Monkey Island which confirmed that this is a highly professional set up , that delivers an excellent experience , safely and was worth every penny

Worth it! - On the verge of cancelling our trip the night before due to an unexpected and rapid eruption of intestinal upset, while also fidgety at an unflattering forecast, six - from an original group of 10 - rallied and determined to not let dodgy dumplings ruin their day.
Seamless timing and service from the outset, with ponctual pick up, friendly greeting and registration followed by freshly brewed coffee and a welcome, tasty and varied breakfast buffet.
Some stomachs still unsettled, three of the brave six hunkered down as our skipper powered the Honda twin 250s into life and deftly directed his craft and delicate passengers from marina to Maya Bay.
Sharks spotted, ecology esteemed, coffee and cake consumed, we later enjoyed a dip and unexpected solitude at Pileh's picturesque Lagoon.
Mirthful monkeys, Viking runes, and saliva fashioned birds' nests harvested for niche culinary tastes, swell imagination as we next don mask and snorkel, slipping beneath the swell to shadow the sea's life.
Nature's wonders admired, it was time to experience man's attempt to dominate terrains with motorised technology - Rang Yai beach road cross-Island ATV circuit!
A day of beauty and bonding bursts into new life as we jockey for position along the jungle track on these 4-wheeled, adrenaline inducing, tiny tractors!
Cold beers at an island beach bar, a brief skim home and a prodigious Thai and Western buffet at the superlative Soho Pool Club all decisively made for a day forever to remember.
Careful and considerate was our captain throughout the day, professional and present was our crewman Andy, while Sarah went above and beyond to guide and cater our every need.
Our heartfelt thanks and appreciation for a well-prepared and well-managed luxurious day out!

Unforgettable Sunrise Tour with Simba Crew #7 – Harry, Dang, and Mr. Whatt Were Absolute Legends! - From the moment we stepped onto the boat with Simba Crew #7, we knew we were in for something special — but this sunrise tour to the Phi Phi Islands far exceeded every expectation. The experience was flawless from start to finish, and that’s all thanks to the dream team: Harry (our guide and vibe-master), Captain Dang (steady hands and sea-smooth sailing), and Mr. Whatt (our ever-smiling, superhuman deck hand).
Harry has a gift — he laid out the day’s agenda in such a conversational and natural way that it felt more like chatting with a friend than listening to a scripted tour. He was attentive to the group’s needs, offering more or less detail based on interest. That kind of flexibility and thoughtfulness doesn’t go unnoticed, and it really set the tone for a relaxed and personalized adventure.
The service was impeccable — the snacks were thoughtful, fresh, and beautifully presented. At every stop, the crew was already ten steps ahead of anything we might need. I even asked for a band-aid and within seconds, Mr. Whatt had one in hand with a smile. The boat was sparkling clean, stocked with everything, and truly felt like a floating oasis.
Captain Dang made the ride feel smooth and safe the entire way, skillfully navigating us into beautiful, less crowded coves that felt exclusive. Whether it was snorkeling, sightseeing, or just soaking in the early-morning calm of Maya Bay, we felt like VIPs at every moment.
If you’re looking for the perfect Phi Phi Islands tour — with an early start to beat the crowds, a five-star crew that treats you like family, and an unforgettable day on the water — book with Simba Crew #7 and hope you’re lucky enough to get Harry, Dang, and Mr. Whatt. We left the tour feeling inspired, grateful, and already planning when we could do it again.
11/10 experience. Do not miss this!

Excellent service - We did a private boat tour with Simba and I highly recommend this company. Everything was so well organized. We had some concerns regarding the weather as it is start of rain season. We contacted the company a few days prior and they assured us that they were monitoring everything. We were picked up from our hotel exactly on time and had a nice breakfast before heading on to the boat. The crew on the boat were amazing. They take great care of us and even though the water was a bit rough, we had a great time. Lots of nice snacks on the boat as well! We had so much fun swimming and snorkelling and there were mo large crowds either. Once we got back to Puckett, they provided an amazing lunch and also there were showers there too so we could change before getting dropped off to our hotel! I highly recommend this company. The crew and staff were the highlight for us!

Phi Phi Sunrise with professional photography package (Kolin) - Our group was determined to fully embrace every moment and create lasting memories during our adventure, so we decided to add the professional photography package with Kolin, the photographer from Simba Sea Trips.
Choosing Kolin turned out to be the best decision! He struck the perfect balance between capturing candid moments and posed shots, working seamlessly with his team throughout the trip. Thanks to his talent, we now have stunning images that we will cherish forever, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the breathtaking surroundings without the distraction of our phones.
The crew was outstanding, with Guide Deela, Boatman Andy, and Captain Yai taking exceptional care of us throughout the day. Their dedication and hospitality genuinely enhanced our experience.
We wholeheartedly recommend Kolin for his unique approach to capturing every memorable moment of the trip. It was truly the icing on the cake for our journey!, we hope to use him again on our next trip.

Adventure of a Lifetime - Simba Sea Trips provides absolutely incredible tours. We joined the Speed Boat Charter Phi Phi tour and were absolutely blown away by the adventurous fun, beautiful views, and exceptional staff. No matter your preference or fitness level this tour is jam packed with options to swim, snorkel, sunbath, explore, or relax all at your own preference and pace. My wife and I are a bit larger and appreciated that the staff never made us feel like we could not participate. In fact, they went above and beyond to ensure we had an incredible experience, not just for us, but for each guest. The food was absolutely delicious and the boat ride in between excursions was stunning. I have to give a special thanks to Mr. Kim and Mr. Ya for being absolutely incredible guides and personally ensuring we had an unforgettable experience and to Dee for truly going above and beyond. Dee was knowledgeable, fun, and encouraging. She ensure we were taken care of each step of the way and gave us encouragement to take the plunge, literally encouraging us to jump off the boat and into the water, which was one of my favorite moments. Thank you all for providing the adventure of a lifetime!

Fantastic once in a lifetime experience! - 10 stars! Absolutely amazing experience. “The Beach” has been on my bucket list since I saw the movie 25 years ago. I booked the private charter even though it was only my husband and I. The best decision I could have made! The boat was extremely comfortable, crew awesome, and all the food unexpected and delicious. The captain is a genius with carving fruit art. Getting to Maya Beach before the crowds was priceless- and then they added a breakfast picnic that made it even better. I can not compliment this operation enough- if you have the means to do the private tour- DO IT!
