Locals Island Private Charter — Phuket East Coast

Easy to book, great communication. Everything was very well organised from the very early start through to drop off at the end of the day. Friendly team, small number of participants (14 in our group) Sunrise was beautiful from the water. The early start meant we were leaving locations as others arrived. Loved the swimming and snorkelling. Snacks and food throughout the trip were well timed and thoughtful. We had a wonderful time although made a rookie error with sunscreen and paid the price with sunburn.

As a seasoned traveler who has spent roughly two-thirds of my life around the world—and having visited all but one continent—I can say without hesitation that this was the best sea excursion I have ever taken. Simba Sea Trips delivers true excellence from start to finish. The experience is seamlessly organized door-to-door: from a perfectly timed pick-up in a very comfortable and spotless vehicle, to a neat and well-presented lounge at the departure harbor, to the impeccable cleanliness and comfort of the vessel itself (including an onboard toilet). Even the return, with a thoughtfully arranged lunch back at the harbor, reflects careful planning and execution with both care and style. The staff are outstanding—highly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. They provide clear instructions, ensure safety at all times, and monitor guests with genuine care. You feel completely looked after and protected throughout the journey. The itinerary is exceptional, covering iconic and breathtaking locations. The highlight for me was witnessing the exact moment of sunrise—an absolutely magnificent and unforgettable experience. Food and refreshments are available throughout the trip, all of excellent quality and plentiful. Simba Sea Trips sets a very high standard. Highly, highly recommended.

Ein wunderschöner und perfekt organisierter Ausflug mit Simba zu den Phi Phi Inseln, Maya Beach und Monkey Beach! Das Schnorcheln war traumhaft — wir haben unzählige Fische und sogar kleine Haie gesehen. Ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis! Vielen lieben Dank an die tollen Guides Noinoi und David, die super freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit waren. Ein spezieller Dank an David, der mit unserer Tochter bei den Korallen getaucht ist und dabei wunderbare Aufnahmen gefilmt hat. Absolut empfehlenswert und ein echtes Highlight unserer Reise!

Amazing! There were many...many tour companies with all sorts of boats but I am so glad I took the tour with Simba. I actually took the tour on Dec. 23, 2023! and the guide the crew on the boat were amazing, hard working and very pleasant people. Especially the food! I love Thai food and I can assure you the cook for this company is one of the best I have ever seen. Thank you Simba for a great tour.

Fabulous tour from start to finish. We were picked up at 4 40am, getting out to the islands before all the crowds and only 11 guests on board. The team were warm and very attentive. Our female tour guide was so full of energy and was hilariously passionate about helping us capture those memorable pics! Snorkeling we saw numerous baby sharks (and even a 1.5m+ one eeekkk!) and a cuttlefish. This was hands down the best island tour we've been on, topped up regularly with delicious snacks and drinks and finishing with a tasty lunch. Would recommend!

Service was great, guides were great! Absolutely amazing tour! So amazing that we just cancelled our next tour by other company and booked one more Simba tour❤️ Special thanks to everyone that made this trip unforgettable for us! Emin&Elvira
