14.Krabi Hong Island Tour: Charter Private Long-tail Boat

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 62 reviews

Take a private long-tail boat from Ao Nam Mao Pier to Hong Island and nearby stops, with a shared shuttle from Ao Nang and nearby areas. Choose a two- or four-island outing, then agree on your pace and route with the captain. Expect limestone cliffs, a lagoon, beaches, fruit and water, but no included meal, park fee, or English-speaking guide.

“The trip was well organised and punctual. We had a great boat trip with a great driver. We took the morning trip and still experienced some congestion when entering and exiting some of the locations due to the number of visitors. However, we still had enough space to move around and explore the islands. The islands and locations are not large but beautiful and worth visiting on a half day trip, perhaps a full day trip would allow you to spend more time at the beaches. However, the time we had was enough for us.”
