★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 41 reviews · 7 hours · from $63

Swim and snorkel, eat a Thai buffet on Koh Pakbia, then look for bioluminescent plankton at Koh Raeng. Hotel pickup is available from several Krabi areas. Kayaking requires a booked add-on, and the national park fee is extra.

“DO NOT BOOK THIS TRIP. USE ANOTHER COMPANY. They got us to the viewpoint at 5.30pm when the viewpoint closed at 4.30pm. So we were denied access to the viewpoint and still had to pay the 300 baht fee. We also paid for kayaking and there was no kayaking. The tour guide could not speak English. They also took food off our plate because they didn’t have enough. They were driving the boat recklessly on the way home and we almost capsized us. There is a reason they don’t have many reviews. Stay away from this company.”
