Phuket Yacht Charter — Silver Craft 31, All-Inclusive by the Boat (Hartt Voyages)
฿55,000 takes the whole 31-foot Silver Craft for a half day, ฿65,000 for a full day — up to 6 guests, and the operator charges the same for every route. Lunch, drinks and the round-trip transfer from anywhere in Phuket are already inside that number.
Phuket, Thailand · 4h · up to 6 guests · ฿55,000 per boat, half day · EN
This private boat tour to the Phi Phi Islands was perfect. We snorkelled, paddle boarded, saw monkeys, had a delicious lunch and ended with a Mai Tai on a private beach. It was worth every penny to have a full 8 hour boat day.
What is this tour like?
This is a boat rental priced by the hull. ฿55,000 buys the Silver Craft 31 for a half day and ฿65,000 for a full day, for up to 6 guests, and the figure does not move with the number of people aboard. There is no hourly rate: half a day is the smallest unit Hartt Voyages sells, so the shortest booking you can make still costs ฿55,000.
The boat is a 9.4-metre Silvercraft 31 HT on two 200 hp engines, restored for day trips and fishing, with a toilet, a fresh-water shower and Bluetooth stereo. She cruises at 20 knots and tops out at 28. The operator states plainly that the price is the same for every route, so Phi Phi, Phang Nga Bay, Hong Krabi, Mai Ton and Racha Yai all cost the same day.
What makes the number readable is that it is all-inclusive in the operator's own words: gourmet lunch — even on a half day — alcohol and beverages, round-trip transfer from anywhere on Phuket, plus snorkelling and fishing equipment. Hartt Voyages departs from its own berth at Boat Lagoon Marina in Ko Kaeo and holds an SHA Plus+ certificate from the Thai Ministry of Tourism.

“This private boat tour to the Phi Phi Islands was perfect. We snorkelled, paddle boarded, saw monkeys, had a delicious lunch and ended with a Mai Tai on a private beach. It was worth every penny to have a full 8 hour boat day.”
“The tour was perfect and the crew was more than great. All three of them were nice and helpful. We were welcomed with a cool drink and sticky rice with mango, and the picnic on an almost deserted little island was amazing.”
“What an amazing experience. The boat and the service were 10/10. We went around Krabi and every step of the way was done so well, with a picnic stop on the beach, snorkelling and then lunch. My fiancé even got some time to fish.”
