The entire trip was wonderful - the boat ride, the scenery, the stops for swimming and snorkel - everything was perfect. A dream come true, and still on my bucket list.
Krabi by sea — the charter we've been running since 2005.
Simba's full-day Krabi private charter from Boat Lagoon Marina, Phuket — 50 km by sea versus 180 km by road via two ferries.
The route crosses the Andaman to Krabi's limestone bay — karst islands, hidden lagoons (the "hongs") cut into the cliffs. Koh Hong and Hong Lagoon are the anchor stops; the rest flexes around weather and tide.
2 to 4 guests as standard; per-person above 4, up to 18 adults. All-inclusive: pickup, breakfast, snacks, snorkelling, park fees, lunch. Free cancellation 24h.
World Luxury Travel Award winner.
A Simba Sea Trip tour leaves earlier, meaning you will escape the huge crowds and arrive in the most desirable locations ahead of every other tour operator. The main advantage of the early bird tour is the chance to not only soak in the area in absolute serenity but also have the chance to take part in fun activities that guests of other tour operators often don’t get the chance to do.
Krabi is a coveted Thai tourist destination renowned for its majestic limestone cliffs and lush mangrove forests. While the driving distance from Phuket to the Krabi islands exceeds 180 km, journeying to this glorious region by speedboat requires travelling a much smaller distance of approximately 50 km. Not only does a Krabi Island speedboat tour get you there quicker, but it also gets you there much, much earlier, ensuring that you can immerse yourself in the magnificent surroundings of the region in the absence of sizeable crowds. The ideal tour is one that is both enjoyable and relaxing. No one enjoys paying for island tours and getting stuck fighting for space on the sand. That is why we are committed to providing a high-quality, personable and relaxed experience for everyone that joins us for one of our Krabi Island Tours.
