# Phuket Tours with Teenagers: Days They Will Actually Enjoy

For teenagers who want something to do rather than just look at, the picks are rafting and quad bikes, a catamaran with a water slide, a sunrise boat to Maya Bay, sea fishing, or a first dive with an instructor. From ten years old they pay the adult price, and a few activities have their own age limits.

Prices come straight from our booking system. Children under four join free on most trips — each tour page says so.

## What is the most active day?

[Rafting, elephant spa and ATV](https://phukeo.com/en/tours/rafting-spa-atv-1-day). Five kilometres of river with an instructor in every raft, then 250cc quad bikes on a track with bridges, a tunnel and mud, an elephant ride, and a waterfall to rinse off in. Pickup at 06:50, back to Phuket from 16:30. Basic experience with motorbikes or quads helps. That ride is the whole elephant programme on the quad day; if your teenager would rather bathe an elephant, see [does the rafting, elephant and ATV tour include elephant bathing](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/elephant-bathing-included).

The plain rafting day drops the quads; the minimum age for rafting is six, so younger siblings can come too.

## Which boat day do teenagers like?

The catamaran, for the toys: a slide from the deck into the sea, an inflatable pool, SUP boards, clear canoes and a jumping platform from the upper level, plus Racha Yai, Phi Phi Don, Maya Bay late in the afternoon and a sunset stop by Maiton island. It runs in the Comfort+ format and gets back at 19:00. Parents weighing its price against a speedboat day can read [is the catamaran worth it](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/phi-phi-racha-catamaran-worth-it).

Or the Racha and Coral speedboat, where Coral island has parasailing, banana boats and jet skis on the sand — paid on the spot to beach operators. For a slower island day with beach games on Naka Yai, see [Krabi four islands tour from Phuket](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/krabi-four-islands-from-phuket-worth-it). Our own jet ski tour is different: you drive for four hours, and the driver must be 18; see [can beginners do the jet ski island tour](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/jet-ski-tour-for-beginners).

## Is a sunrise trip a good idea?

If they can be got out of bed, yes. Phi Phi at sunrise leaves in the dark, the sun comes up at sea, and you walk into Maya Bay at seven with almost nobody there. Every tour in our catalogue runs with an English-speaking guide. Back at the pier at 15:30, which leaves time for a nap. [Maya Bay at sunrise or after 4 pm](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/maya-bay-sunrise-or-afternoon) compares that with the catamaran's late arrival.

## What about fishing or diving?

Sea fishing from sunrise: trolling for tuna, barracuda and mahi-mahi, bottom fishing, crab traps and lunch cooked from the catch. All tackle is included, and you can take the fish home. The Andaman Sea diving day takes first-timers with a full briefing and an instructor throughout, and a medical questionnaire comes first. Every tour in our catalogue runs with an English-speaking guide. The dive day is set out hour by hour on [beginner scuba diving day trip](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/beginner-scuba-diving-day-trip).

On the jet ski tour the driver must be eighteen or over.

## Is there a day with both elephants and adrenaline?

Yes: the rafting days include the elephant village after the river — mud, bathing, a shower, the baby elephant show — and the ATV version adds a ride. The Avatar world day, for a small group of up to twelve, strings together an elephant bath, bamboo rafting, ATV trails with a bridge, a swing and a maze, a waterfall and hot springs at sunset. Its full timetable is on the [Avatar world card](https://phukeo.com/en/tours/avatar-plus-hangdong). With younger children, [is the Avatar world tour suitable for children](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/avatar-world-tour-with-children) goes through the day stop by stop.

## What about a two-day trip with teenagers?

It works well at that age. Five pearls has an optional night swim among glowing plankton, a fire show and an introduction to Thai boxing on Phi Phi Don; Four pearls has canoes at Talu and Railay's cliffs; the Phi Phi two-day trip has the viewpoint at dawn and deep-water fishing at Rang Yai on the way home. The evening programmes are optional, and the adult price applies from ten. The two pearls trips are compared on [Five Pearls or Four Pearls](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/five-pearls-or-four-pearls). The hotels are covered on [which hotel is on the Four Pearls tour](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/which-hotel-four-pearls-tour).

## What should they pack?

For active days, clothes they do not mind soaking and a full change for the ride home; closed shoes for the quads. For boats, swimwear, a hat, sunscreen and a dry bag for the phone. For the temples on land days, something covering shoulders and knees. For a teenager curious about diving, [beginner dive day or snorkelling tour](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/diving-or-snorkelling-day-trip) covers the instructor and the medical questionnaire.

## Which tours are too tame for them?

Honestly, the half-day Coral island trip and the sightseeing tour are built for families with small children and first days on the island. Teenagers who want action will be happier on the river, the quads, the catamaran or the fishing boat. Let them choose one day of the week — it changes the mood of the whole holiday. If you still want the temples with them, [the half-day sightseeing page](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/phuket-sightseeing-half-day) shows how short each stop is. The fishing stop at [Rang Yai island](https://phukeo.com/en/guide/rang-yai-island) needs no experience: the crew baits the line.

## Do they need to swim well?

For rafting, no — life jackets and helmets are on, and an instructor sits in every raft. For snorkelling and the catamaran's slide, being comfortable in the water makes the day far better, and jackets are always on board. For diving, the instructor runs a full briefing and stays with first-timers throughout. For a teenager who wants to fish, [sunrise fishing or the Phi Phi fishing day](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/sunrise-fishing-or-phi-phi-bamboo-fishing) shows how much time each gives at the rod.

## What do teenagers pay?

From ten years old, the adult price on our tours; the child price covers ages 4 to 9. The table below shows current prices in baht. On two Phi Phi speedboat days the national park fee is paid in cash on the day. Whether the Khai island day is worth it with the fee on top is on [is the Phi Phi, Maya Bay and Khai speedboat worth it](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/phi-phi-maya-khai-speedboat-worth-it). Younger siblings coming to the Similans too? [The Similan islands with children](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/similan-islands-with-children) explains which boat suits them.

Send the ages in the chat — it decides the price and the jacket sizes. Coral Island's beach and water sports are covered on [Coral Island: what to expect](https://phukeo.com/en/guide/coral-island). Ages go in the first message, together with the date and your hotel; the rest is on [how booking works](https://phukeo.com/en/faq/how-booking-works). Jet ski drivers must be 18 or older, so check [is the jet ski island tour worth it](https://phukeo.com/en/excursions/jet-ski-island-tour-worth-it) before you promise a teenager the handlebars.

## Worth knowing

Age limits are real: rafting from six, jet ski drivers from eighteen, and the diving day needs a medical questionnaire. Tell us the ages before booking so nobody is left on the pier.
