The views were spectacular and the snorkelling was amazing, thousands of fish. Five crew on board, and every one of them was kind and helpful.

What is this tour like?

Chartering the boat and buying a seat are two different purchases. Here you pay ฿29,000 for the speedboat itself on the Phi Phi route — the same sum whether two of you come or ten. A group of ten splits it into ฿2,900 each; a couple pays for the privacy of having the deck, the guide and the day's pace to themselves.

The boat is a 250HP×2 speedboat licensed for 2 to 10 guests. A private transfer takes you from your hotel to Royal Phuket Marina and back, and you choose the pickup time yourself within the 06:00–09:00 window. Drinks, seasonal fruit, snorkelling gear and accident insurance come with the charter. The national park fee (฿400 adult, ฿200 child) and lunch are paid separately.

What are the highlights?

  • The whole boat is yours — the price is per boat, not per person
  • ฿29,000 for a 250HP×2 speedboat carrying 2 to 10 guests
  • Racha instead of Phi Phi is ฿28,000 — same boat, different destination
  • Private hotel ↔ marina transfer included; you pick the pickup between 06:00 and 09:00
  • Snorkelling gear, drinks and seasonal fruit on board
  • Start from Royal Phuket Marina — V. Marine Tour, TAT licence no. 34/00586

FAQ

Is ฿29,000 per person or for the boat?
For the boat. ฿29,000 charters the whole speedboat on the Phi Phi route for 2 to 10 guests — the sum does not change with the number of people aboard.
Why is Racha ฿28,000 and Phi Phi ฿29,000?
The ฿1,000 is the route, not the boat. Both charters use the same 250HP×2 speedboat licensed for 2 to 10 guests; only the destination differs.
What do the higher prices up to ฿59,000 buy?
Bigger boats for bigger groups, not a better class of service. On the Phi Phi route: ฿35,000 for 11–20 guests, ฿55,000 for 21–30 and ฿59,000 for 31–38. On the Racha route the same steps are ฿30,000, ฿32,000 and ฿37,000.
How much is it each if ten of us come?
฿29,000 split ten ways is ฿2,900 each, and ten is the most this boat takes at this price. Fewer guests simply means more room on the same deck.
Can just the two of us charter the boat?
Yes — the charter starts at two guests. The price stays ฿29,000 because you are buying the boat, so a couple gets the whole deck and the guide to themselves.
Is lunch included?
No. The sample route does stop for lunch on Phi Phi Don, but lunch is not part of the private charter and is paid separately on the spot.
What about the national park fee?
It is not included: ฿400 per adult and ฿200 per child, paid separately. Tips and alcohol are outside the charter price too.
What time does the day start?
You choose it: the hotel pickup is arranged for any time inside the 06:00–09:00 window, and the charter is a full-day trip from Royal Phuket Marina.
How far in advance should we book?
The operator asks for 3 to 7 days' notice. A private boat is held for one group only, so the date is blocked as soon as the charter is confirmed.
Where do we meet?
At the V. Marine Tour Welcome Center in Royal Phuket Marina, 63/202 Moo 2 Thepkasattri Road, Ko Kaeo. The private transfer brings you there from your hotel.

“An early start at 5 am, but worth it: by 9 am it can be quite crowded. Food and refreshments all day, with lunch at a resort.”

“From start to finish the crew was outgoing and full of energy. The sailing was smooth and the scenery incredible.”
