An idyllic destination for backpackers and voyagers who are seeking relaxation, Phi Phi is a prominent destination to spend some time in Thailand.

Trust me, your trip to Phi Phi Island will remain incomplete without a longtail boat tour. Some of the places we visited on the tour were Tonsai Bay, Monkey Beach, Shark Point, Viking Cave and Bamboo Island, etc. Everything was top notch.

I had booked a private boat tour for me and my partner during our honeymoon to Phi Phi Island. This trip by Thrillophilia included a visit to Monkey Beach, Bamboo Island, Shark Point and many other places. Our Royal Jet Cruiser was also very well maintained.

Phi Phi is one of the best locations around Krabi for snorkeling. We took a guided snorkeling tour with Thrillophilia. We were taken to the island on a private boat where we met our instructor. A Thai meal was included as a part of the package as well.
