Departing from Khao Lak, this tour sees you speed off into Phang Nga Bay to one of its many highlights – James Bond Island. Sprinkled with Hollywood glamour, it's one of Thailand's top attractions. On this early bird speedboat trip, you'll also canoe through mangrove forests and have lunch in Ko Panyi.

Starting early, you'll get to see the incredible limestone karsts in mesmerizing morning light. You'll travel by speedboat though the emerald-green sea to one island that everyone wants to see – James Bond Island, or Khao Phing Kan as it's known locally.

Then it's time to ramp up pace with a kayaking experience, where you'll explore a fascinating network of mangrove forests at Tum Lod. Lunch comes courtesy of the locals at Ko Panyi – ‘The Floating Village' – a place built entirely on stilts. We round off with a chance to grab some snaps at the viewpoint of Samet Nangshe.

The trip overall had so much content, everything was well thought out, the food provided was great and the staff lovely. I wold say that the safety alighting from and re-boarding the boat was very poor. I am very short, twice on the trip when getting off and on the boat I injured myself.

No safety briefs given. Ie life jackets, or incase it emergency. BUT the trip was well organised, packed a lot in the day. Food at buffet was excellent! A great day!

Great day out from start to finish, guides very informative and friendly and help full, boat crew friendly and helpful to, nothing was a problem any query’s dealt with straight away, from the speed boat, caving, James Bond island and mangrove canoeing and floating village and the stop off at the beach, all was amazing and great value for money with all that was packed in. Would do this trip again

Beautiful scenery, lots of great activities and knowledgeable, friendly guides. Breakfast is also included on this trip which we didn’t know. A brilliant day out!

There was more to the tour than I expected . Caves and the fact that we were at each place before the crowds. Made the trip and places feel like they were all exclusive. Also the sea was so calm not sure if this is always the case but for anyone who gets sea sick this was not the case on this tour .for the not to like well nothing really but if I had to choose the last stop the beach for a hour . Not needed as there was so much to see in the Thailand island landscapes . Well worth it !!!!!
