The sights were good. I never give such a low rating, but the guide Bema showed complete lack of respect when I told her I don't want photos taken. And why do you want a picture taken with a person you just met? She is too immature to be a guide. Ask for a more mature person with experience if you go on this tour.

The things they don't tell you, first you have to go up on a hill for 1 km, hill which is full of thick dust. Keep in mind, you can throw your shoes after that. Don't bring some fancy shoes. The breakfast was a joke, some croissants and boiled eggs. So, if you really want to see the sunset you can come with a rental and that's it. After that we go to James Bond island, highly overrated, but at least for a few minutes we were alone and the first people on the island. After that we go kayaking to see some lagoons, this part was pretty good, but again if it's high tide you can enter with the kayak in some places. And the last objective, some 5000 years shells again nothing special. For lunch I had pork with rice, a good amount of food and tasty, nothing to complain. As a conclusion, please keep your money in the pocket or be like me and feel sorry after.

This tour was absolutely fantastic! It takes you to each location before the crowds arrive, making every stop feel magical. The pick-up was punctual, and the guide was incredibly friendly and helpful. It’s definitely worth it!

What an incredible tour! The sunrise trekking to the Phang Nga viewpoint was an absolute highlight of our trip. The pickup was early but so worth it. Hike to the top isn't long but it's challenging because it's on a sand track. Stopping off at the other points were so fascinating and fun. My only criticism is it's a long day with nowhere to stop off for food/snacks, so I'd definitely recommend taking some, as lunch is served near the end of the trip before heading back to hotels. (Lunch option for vegetarians was pineapple fried rice which was not enjoyable at all) MJ our tour guide was fantastic. Absolutely hilarious, even when being picked up at 3.40am. He had a good energy throughout & helped take pics etc

Outstanding tour! Worth the early rise to see the sunrise over Phang Nga and beat the crowds to James Bond Island. Well organized and punctual, the staff super friendly and attentive to our needs. The breakfast was limited but lunch more than filling and very tasty. Our guide Wit was very knowledgeable and worked hard to make sure everyone felt included . The kayaking at Hong and a visit to the caves on Treasure Island icing on the cake. A great day and well worth the money.

Thank you Paul for making a spectacular day of adventures relaxing, fun and interesting! The day trip made our trip to Phuket…beautiful scenery with a small group, avoiding the crowds, and ending with a delicious lunch has given us great memories.

What an fantastic tour! The sunrise at Semet Nangshe was absolutely breathtaking and we got to beat the crowds..be prepared to trek uphill for about 20-30 minutes first thing and in the dark. They provide headlamps, but it will be challenging for some. Being winded first thing was not sexy, but got plenty of oxygen to my eyes for those sunrise views. The longboat portion was lovely and showed a different and beautiful perspective. The tide was high given the early tour so James Bond Island wasn't accessible and the cave tour was an experience seeing the raw limestone up close! I would recommend this tour especially for the sunrise and long boat portions!

We had such a great time! A little bit more physically intense than expected but we loved every moment. We really appreciated the timing. Even though it's an early wake up call, we beat all the crowds and had a front row seat for the sunrise. We were able to get to the islands before the park opened and were able to explore by ourselves. Our guide was amazing! Would definitely recommend! Provided hotel pick up and drop off and breakfast and lunch were included. Great experience!

Amazing sightseeing experience Pick up was about 15mins earlier then communicated. The hike up is only about 1km but very steep, in hindsight I should have taken the shuttle up 🫣 Amazing to see the sunrise over Phang Nga bay but once the sun was up not enough time to take pictures The rest of the tour did feel a bit rushed, esp to get to James Bond island before the crowds. The title may have been a bit misleading , or maybe we interpretted the word "trekking" incorrectly i.e moderate level of fitness required, you needed sneakers for walking and sandals are not recommended . There was climbing in the caves and some rocky slippery terrain to maneuver. The canoe ride in the bay was great The lunch provided was very good. Watching the sunrise over the bay was amazing

I think that the overall experience is that this was an amazing tour ... even if getting up at 3am was a bit ‘tricky’ But it proved to pay off ... we ended in first row for the sunrise pictures, and being the first and only people on James Bond Island 👍🏼 Afterwards we climbed the small cave and sailed the sea canoes around Hong Island. You should keep in mind that getting into the hongs is not possible in the morning because of the low tide ... this was in reality our only ‘complaint’ Finally ... a great tour with a good chauffeur, a very capable skipper on the long tail boat and a fantastic guide.

Fabulous trip. Worth the price and effort to wake up at 3 in the morning to begin the tour at 4 am. The sunrise view is very memorable. Great tour guide and very well accommodated.

This is THE Phang-Nga tour to take. I was skeptical of any tours of the area, especially during the busy holiday season, because I heard they would be PACKED, but our guide, Paul, was the ultimate expert and we felt like true insiders traveling with him. As far as the tour itself, everything described in the listing is accurate! The hike at the beginning of the day to the viewpoint could be a bit strenuous for some folks, but there are opportunities to take a vehicle up if you think you may not make the steep (but short) trek. Meals were well-planned and delicious! We had a spread of coffee, tea, fruit, bread, and eggs for breakfast and Paul ordered our lunch and drinks ahead of time so it was ready at the restaurant when we arrived. Perfectly! The small group setting, Paul’s attention to detail, relationship with the locals, and knowledge of the area (history, fun facts, etc.) made all the difference. We beat the crowds everywhere we went. Some places we were the first and only group there when we got there. According to Paul, thousands would descend on the tiny beaches and viewpoints a few hours from when we visited. We didn’t have to battle any of that. He anticipated our needs, came prepared with supplies, food, even took candid photos for us! When I say Paul is a pro, I mean it. We felt so safe and taken care of with Paul at the helm of our trip. Amazing tour and experience. Thank you for everything, Paul!!

Everything from the pickup till drop off was perfect. I felt like cared about. Small group is ideal for the winter holidays because other tours can be up to 50 people which is very stressful. Pick up on the mountains wasn't hard even for my 9 years son and there was an option to go by car. I would take some jacket because it was a little bit cold before sunrise. Then we went to a very special place canoeing. Magnificent, fun and relaxing. It wasn't very regular experience we I wouldn't tell you exactly you should go and see yourself. Lunch was delicious. Thank you guys.

A very rewarding day - amazing views, great snorkling and plenty of time for exploration. The team looked after us and even helped take some photos. Without doubt the best experience of my time in Phuket, highly recommend making the effort to get up early and book this.

It was an early morning but 100% worth it. We loved watching the sunrise over the bay. We got to James Bond Island before there was anybody else there. Being with a small group made a big difference in our enjoyment. Our guide, Noi, was so sweet. Lunch was delicious I would definitely recommend this tour.

Wow, what an amazing trip from start to finish! We booked a private Phang Nga Treasures Sunrise Trekking tour and every second was very well-planned and every detail was thought of. We started the day by getting picked up by our driver, who was the happiest person I've ever encountered at 3:30am (early wakeup is worth it for this trip!), and then we picked up our guide Noi to drive to where we would begin our hike. All the necessary equipment was provided and after a 10-15 minute hike, we were at the top of the hill and ready to take in the magnificent view of the surrounding islands. Before it was time to go, we had breakfast, took a bunch of great photos, and made our way down the mountain to take a short ride to meet our longtail boat. The captains were by far the best we rode with during our 3 weeks in Thailand -they were great! We were the first people to see James Bond island for the day, which was an incredible experience. It's very special to see such a popular attraction in a quiet setting so you can really enjoy it. Next, we checked out some awesome caves, and went on a great canoe trip. We have never had someone paddle us around before, but it was so much fun. Our canoe guide was hilarious and pointed out tons of cool viewpoints. Our trip ended with a short hike through the mangroves to see a shell hill, which was fascinating. Lunch to cap off the trip was delicious, as well! I can't say enough about our guide, Noi. She was incredible from start to finish, and shared so much knowledge with us. I'm still quoting facts she taught us! Thank you again, Phuket Let's Go - this trip was the highlight of our time in Phuket. I highly recommend this tour to anyone!

I was so pleased with this trip. I remember visiting Phuket in the 1990s before it became super busy and did not think it was possible to find a way to revisit those days. But this tour achieves that. We visited Samet Nangshe Viewpoint to see the sun rise. We were the first ones there. We were the first group to visit James Bond Island, so we got to see it without the crowds. I didn't even experience that when I first visited in 1998. And we had a lovely canoe experience at Hong Island. The meals provided were pretty good and the transport safe and efficient. Our guide was lovely, inclusive and caring. This was a truly memorable experience and I highly recommend it. In a way I don't want to recommend it too highly because this is the way I would always want to see places and if too many people know about this tour then it would get spoiled. But this trip is perfect. Join in before everyone knows.

This was the best day of our whole trip. The early start is beyond worth it. You will get to see the beauty of Thailand with nearly zero other tourists. The tour was incredibly well paced, and packed a lot in without feeling rushed. The sunrise is a once in a lifetime view - keep in mind the hike is challenging but short. You can pay baht to be driven to the top of the hill if you prefer and still participate. We had ample time to take all the pictures we wanted and our tour guide did an amazing job of providing extra history and context to every location we explored. The cave kayaking is beautiful and the local people there who take you through the islands were so fun to chat with. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who will be visiting the area!

We have an unforgettable experience in our honeymoon in Phuket. It was my dream to meet a sunrise in the mountains with such a picturesque view and it really worth it to. The trip exceeded our expectations and Paul with his team have went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our tour by Islands . Thank you very much and we definitely recommend to try! Це була незабутня поїздка і підняття на гору з командою. Обов'язково спробуйте опцію пішки щоб насолодитися зоряним небом. Краєвиди на Samet Nangshe були неймовірно гарні ☺️ Далі були чудові екскурсії на Острів Джеймс Бонда (до речі так як ми вибрали ранковий тур , то майже не було туристів, скоріше з десяток, два в ой час як острів може бути переповнений). Далі ми з дружиною насолоджувалися плванням на коное довкола острова Hong і зробили нереально круті фотографії пливучи під горами. Останньою поїздкою був безлюдний острів в Джунглях де ми були свідками малюнків зробленими стародавніми людьми що жили в печерах. Дякуючи Paul мр провели незабутніх півдня.
