Everything was absolutely amazing! Our guide exceeded all expectations with his great sense of humour, engaging personality, and impressive knowledge. You could genuinely feel how much he cared about everyone’s safety and comfort throughout the trip. The overall atmosphere, the experience, and the energy were simply fantastic.

We had such an amazing time on our island tour in Phuket! Everything was great from start to finish, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our trip. A special shoutout to our tour guide, Bobby, who made the whole experience even better! He was so funny, friendly and attentive, always making sure everyone was having a good time and felt comfortable. He brought such a good vibe to the tour and made the day even more enjoyable. You can really tell he cares about the people on his tour and wants everyone to have the best experience possible. Also, a big thank you to all the staff and crew who helped make everything run smoothly. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful, and we really appreciated all their effort. Overall, we had an incredible experience and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Phuket! If you get Bobby as your guide, you’re in for a great time. Thank you to Bobby and the whole team for making our day so memorable! ❤️

this trip was completely amazing! the staff were super nice and friendly even the group of people were so respectful and nice. whenever, I want to book a trip I will always choose them as I believe it’s better than booking a tour from patong because the majority of tourists from patong are so carless not organized and disrespectful.

Had a fantastic experience on the Phi Phi Islands tour! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, with crystal-clear turquoise waters, beautiful beaches and stunning limestone cliffs. Every stop was picturesque and made for amazing photos. The tour was well organised, and the hotel pick-up and drop-off service made everything so convenient and hassle-free. The crew was friendly and helpful throughout the trip, ensuring everyone had an enjoyable experience. Definitely one of the highlights of my Phuket holiday! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Phuket. Would love to visit these beautiful islands again!

We were blessed with great weather, and it was a truly wonderful experience. Our guide, Milkyway, was especially kind, gentle, and an excellent guide. I was also relieved that the other guides, crew, and captain were all very pleasant. Seastar also offers tours to places like the Similan Islands and Surin Island, so I'd love to join another one when I visit Phuket next time.

What to know before visiting Ko Yao

What to do in Ko Yao

Ko Yao is best known for relaxed island Tours and Water activities, with day trips and sea-based experiences dominating bookings on Klook through the year. Demand peaks in June when island-hopping and boat tours draw the biggest crowds, while March and April are typically very quiet — useful if you want solitude. Klook booking data shows Tours are the top category by volume, followed by Water activities, so plan around those rhythms. Decide whether you want peak-season atmosphere or a quieter escape. Based on Klook booking data.

When to visit Ko Yao

June is the busiest month for Ko Yao on Klook, with demand rising sharply, while March and April are the quietest months. Prices move unevenly: the median price drifts around SGD 30 during the busier months but spikes later in the year, with December the priciest and August the most affordable. Where demand and price align, expect both higher atmosphere and higher typical prices; in quieter months you can often find lower prices and fewer crowds. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider August or the very quiet months; for peak-season atmosphere aim for June or July.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Very quiet SGD 32
February Quieter than usual SGD 28
March Very quiet SGD 36
April Very quiet SGD 27
May Busier than usual SGD 30
June Peak demand SGD 30
July Peak demand SGD 30
August Peak demand SGD 23
September Peak demand SGD 28
October Busier than usual SGD 28
November Busier than usual SGD 87
December Very quiet SGD 90

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, August 2025 – June 2026.

Tips for travellers from Singapore

Most travellers book Ko Yao experiences at short notice: about 1 day ahead, with the earliest planners booking around 6 days out. That means you can often remain flexible and pick things a day or two before travel, but in June — the peak month — booking earlier pays as availability tightens. Use Klook to lock in sea tours and water activities a few days ahead when you travel from Singapore, and check prices across the quieter months if you want lower median rates. Based on Klook booking data.
