    Which Phi Phi speedboat day to book

    This page covers our three Phi Phi speedboat day trips, and the main difference between them is the clock. (The eleven-islands day also reaches Phi Phi, but only at the end of a Phang Nga and Krabi run.) The Khai island day picks up from 07:30, snorkels at Khai, lunches on Phi Phi Don and reaches Maya Bay at 15:15. The sunrise trip picks up at four and is in Maya Bay from seven to eight. The Bamboo and fishing day picks up around 06:50, walks into Maya Bay along the boardwalk at 11:35 and finishes with fishing off Rang Yai. With a night on the island, Maya Bay is in the morning; does the Phi Phi overnight tour visit Maya Bay in the morning has the times.

    Not sure which? Is the Phi Phi, Maya Bay and Khai speedboat worth it weighs the classic day against the others.

    What to send us

    The tour, the date (plus a backup if you have one), your hotel, and the number of adults and children with their ages. Every tour in our catalogue runs with an English-speaking guide. If anyone is pregnant or has back problems, say so: the sunrise card doesn't recommend that trip for them, because the speedboat ride is bumpy.

    That's all we need to answer. Questions are free, and nothing is charged before the booking is confirmed.

    What our confirmation covers

    The tour and the date, the adults and children with their ages, the total for your group and your pickup area. The evening before, the exact pickup time follows. The tour page stays the reference for the programme, what's included and what's paid on the spot, so read it once before the day.

    Pickup times on each trip

    On the Khai island day the van comes between 07:30 and 08:30: hotels near Chalong later, the north of the island earlier. On the Bamboo and fishing day it's around 06:50, with Patong, Kata and Karon collected first. On the sunrise trip it's between four and half past four, so get everything ready the night before.

    Hotel transfer both ways is included on all three. The general rules, including what to do if the van runs late, are on hotel pickup.

    Child prices and park fees

    Children aged 4 to 9 pay the child price and from ten the adult price applies (child prices). Where a card says nothing about free places for small children, send the child's age and ask before booking.

    The park fee is where the three trips differ. The sunrise trip includes the national park fees. On the Khai island and the Bamboo and fishing days the fee is paid in cash on the day, so bring baht in small notes. Details on national park fees.

    What to have ready on the day

    Swimwear under your clothes, a towel and sunscreen on all three trips. On the Khai island and the Bamboo and fishing days, baht in small notes for the park fee, and a motion sickness tablet half an hour before boarding if speedboats bother you; both cards suggest it. Reef shoes help at Khai, where the islands have stones.

    For the sunrise trip, a warm layer, because it's cold at sea before the sun is up, plus a change of clothes and a camera in a waterproof case. Be in the lobby at your pickup time with the bag packed; the van collects several hotels in a row.

    Payment, deposit and cancellation

    Payment is agreed in the chat after the booking is confirmed. Ask about the deposit and the cancellation terms when booking, and keep the answer for your date. One thing our Khai island card does spell out: if the authorities close the sea, the trip moves to another date or the payment comes back.

    How far ahead, and one last check

    The classic Khai island day can often be booked a day or two ahead. Sunrise boats fill first, so book those before anything else; how far in advance to book explains why. Torn between Phi Phi and the four Krabi islands for a single day? Phi Phi or Krabi islands from Phuket compares the start times, the swimming and the park fees.

    Before you pay, check the current status of Maya Bay for your date, especially if the bay is the reason you're going. Is Maya Bay open covers what tours do when it's closed, and Maya Bay at sunrise or after 4 pm helps you pick the hour.

    Worth knowingPut everyone's ages in the first message. Age decides the price and the life jacket size, and from ten years old the adult price applies.
