We had a super great Kayak experience lead by super friendly, funny and patient guide who is Mr. Ooh. Highly recommend to follow this guide. He even prepared some local snacks and desert for us to have a picnic at a small shaded beach which we saw wasn’t included in other tours. The journey took about 2 hours plus which was about 6km kayak but it was not as tiring as expected, as part of the journey was just flowing with water and enjoying the nature’s sound and peace. The whole journey was also partly shaded as it was in the mangrove forest, so it was quite comfortable. Overall, we highly recommend this kayak journey with Mr, Ooh, it was an unforgettable experience for us!

The King Climbers team are super friendly and easy to communicate with. Although there is no clear instruction at the very beginning and quite a bit of walking from the arrival pier at the Railay beach island but rest assured, you're safe. The view is magnificent and they will guide you on how to climb up to the dedicated point of the cliff. Although I didn't make it to the top but the journey is wonderful. Worthwhile!

The 7 Islands Sunset Tour was one of the highlights of our Krabi trip! Everything was well-organized from start to finish. We visited beautiful islands, enjoyed snorkeling in clear waters, and walked on a stunning sandbar. The best part was swimming with bioluminescent plankton – it felt magical! Our guide was friendly and helpful throughout the trip. Some spots were a bit crowded, but overall, the experience was totally worth it. Highly recommend if you're looking for a fun and memorable island adventure!

Definitely worth the price. Compared to the packages you see along Ao Nang this is cheaper. They will update you on the exact pick-up time and from there everything was smooth. Had a lot of fun with the snorkeling and the views are very nice. for muslims there is a place to pray when we had our early dinner. There are options for halal and vegetarian. Our main guide was AJ, he and everyone else was very friendly. Definitely would recommend
