We had an absolutely amazing tour with Tan! Starting early meant we got to enjoy all the sights peacefully without the usual crowds, which made everything feel great and cleaner. The highlight was the l hike during the day and views. Tan was an incredible guide, super friendly and funny. He really made the experience unforgettable with his stories and great sense of humor. Overall, if unexercised try to prepare for the hike haha.

Super nice guides and a good program. The pickup was quite early for vacation time, but the first trip was longer anyway and you could easily sleep in the coach. All the places were very beautiful, but a little more time at the Emerald Pool would have been better because there were three pools to look at and swim in. Water was included several times and we were even given rain ponchos in case it rained.

Our guide, Caitoo (definitely spelt that wrong sorry!) was absolutely amazing. She was the most genuine, friendly, lovely person and her energy and happiness was infectious. She deserves a raise! Highly recommend the ATV’ing too - the best thing we have done in our 11 months of travelling. I was sceptical due to other reviews but so glad I did it, the staff at the ATV place were great too and our guide took heaps of pictures and videos.

Local organiser was Phi Phi Tours, very well organized and friendly staff. Pick up from hotel was convenient and tour guide was polite and detailed. Lunch provided was decent. Emerald Pool and Natural Hot Spring were amazing and Tiger Cave was tough climb (1260 steps) with beautiful view. Totally worth your time and money to go for this day trip.
