We were very excited to visit James Bond Island, having heard it was a very picturesque island. We planned our visit through klook.com, and to our satisfaction, Klook arranged the entire trip beautifully and smoothly without any hiccups. James Bond Island is a wonderful island, perfect for creating memories by taking pictures. Moving to Phanak Island and Hong Island, where we engaged in canoeing, it was a brilliant experience. You truly need to participate in that activity to fully appreciate its details. The canoeing activity was very nicely organized and coordinated by the Klook team with the canoemen. They then took us to various places where we were able to take photographs.

We had a lot of fun on this tour. It was the perfect day out, not overcast and not too hot! We booked with the speedboat and it wasn’t full so it was nice to be able to move around more and see all around the boat as we’re going through the islands. The canoe experience was a lot of fun, the tours doing this take your photos and are very nice and funny. Our tour guide, Abraham, was very helpful and was great to have on board! He let us know the history and more information about the islands we visited, and was very helpful. The itinerary was great, the timing allowed us to spend a good amount of time in each place but be able to pack in a lot of activity. Highly recommend!

Just finished this tour, it was raining heavily when we set off on the boat, but before we arrived to the islands, the rain magically stopped, so the entire tour, we had clear, dry and the perfect tempature (not too hot). The tour guide Sam was super helpful and friendly, and helped me take lots of photos. As a solo traveler I really appreciated that since most of my photos would have been selfies otherwise! The kayak operator who steered the kayak through Hong Island and the last island let me have my own kayak and took 50+ photos of different areas throughout the islands. The food was really tasty and they had 4 meat options and 4 vegetarian options. Highly recommend this tour for a very leisurely, chill, relaxing, scenic and memorable trip!
