Fabulous tour from start to finish. We were picked up at 4 40am, getting out to the islands before all the crowds and only 11 guests on board. The team were warm and very attentive. Our female tour guide was so full of energy and was hilariously passionate about helping us capture those memorable pics! Snorkeling we saw numerous baby sharks (and even a 1.5m+ one eeekkk!) and a cuttlefish. This was hands down the best island tour we've been on, topped up regularly with delicious snacks and drinks and finishing with a tasty lunch. Would recommend!
Nox, what a joy it is to read about your fabulous experience with us! It sounds like an unforgettable adventure from start to finish. The early start and smaller group definitely have their perks, and we're thrilled to hear that our team left such a warm impression on you. We're especially glad you enjoyed the energy and passion of our guide, and those memorable moments capturing unique underwater wildlife. Your words about the snacks and lunch, and the overall experience being the best island tour you've been on, truly mean a lot to us. Thank you for recommending us—your enthusiasm really shines through! We hope your memorable photos remind you of this special adventure with us for years to come.

Seamless Luxury with Simba Sea Trips’ - An Intimate Phi Phi & Maya Bay Experience
Simba Sea Trips Phuket delivers one of the most polished and memorable island experiences you can have in Phuket. The "Luxury Small Group Sunrise Phi Phi Island and Maya Bay boat trip" feels carefully designed from start to finish, with every detail handled before the crowds arrive, so the day begins in calm, comfort, and style. The breakfast at the SOHO Club is a lovely way to start the morning at 6 am, and the hospitality only gets better from there. On board, the food and drinks are well thought out, and the final buffet lunch at the beach club is a fitting finish, with good vegetarian options as well. What sets this trip apart is the attention to guests. With no boat carrying more than 18 people, the experience never feels crowded or rushed, and there is a real sense that everyone is being looked after individually. That extra care makes a huge difference, especially on a premium trip like this. A special mention to our guide Noi Noi, whose witty commentary, deep knowledge, and genuinely personal attention made the journey even better. He had a wonderful way of making everyone feel included, and it was impressive to see first-time snorkelers, including guests who did not know how to swim, confidently enjoying the Phi Phi Don waters under his guidance. Our speedboat captain Dan Dan was amazing and how he guided through the choppy waters still keeping the boat steady and stable. Simba is a highly professional, luxury experience that is absolutely worth every penny.
Thank you so much for your incredibly detailed and thoughtful review.We are thrilled to hear that you found the experience polished, memorable, and worthy of being called a luxury adventure. Creating a comfortable, crowd-free experience at Phi Phi and Maya Bay is exactly what we strive for, so it is wonderful to know that everything from the early breakfast to the final beach club lunch exceeded your expectations.Your comments about our small-group approach mean a great deal to us. We believe that limiting guest numbers allows our team to provide the personal attention and care that make a day on the water truly special, and we're delighted that this stood out during your trip.Noi Noi will be absolutely delighted to read your kind words. His knowledge, humour, and genuine passion for sharing these beautiful islands are qualities that our guests often remember long after the tour ends. We are also grateful for your recognition of Dan Dan's exceptional boat-handling skills. Navigating changing sea conditions while ensuring guests remain comfortable and safe is no small task, and your appreciation will mean a lot to him.Thank you again for choosing Simba Sea Trips and for recommending us so highly. We hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable day in paradise in the future.Best regards,Andrea

Dear Simba Tours Team,
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for another fantastic experience following my recent Sunrise Phi Phi & Maya Bay tour.
I have been travelling with Simba Tours since 2013, back when the company was under its previous ownership. Over the years, I’ve experienced tours under both the original and current owners, and what continues to impress me is the consistency of the experience and the standards you maintain.
A few things have always stood out to me:
• Professionalism from start to finish
• A genuine customer-first approach
• A team that clearly cares about creating memorable experiences rather than simply moving tourists from one location to another
On this particular trip, Noi and his crew were exceptional. Their energy, charisma, humour, and ability to engage with guests made the day even more enjoyable.
What impressed me most was the care shown towards guests who were nervous about the sea or snorkelling. I watched Noi personally enter the water with guests to help them overcome their anxieties and ensure they felt safe and comfortable. That level of care is rare and speaks volumes about the culture of your company.
From time to time, I hear people comment that Simba Tours is more expensive than some other operators. Having travelled with many tour companies over the years, my response is always the same: there is a reason for the difference.
With Simba, you are paying for professionalism, safety, organisation, quality, and an experience where guests genuinely matter. You’re not simply another number on a crowded boat. The attention to detail and customer care consistently justify the premium.
After more than a decade of travelling with Simba Tours, it’s wonderful to see that the values that made me choose you in the first place are still very much alive today.
Please pass my thanks on to Noi and the entire crew. They did a fantastic job and made what was already a beautiful day even more memorable.
Reading your review truly means the world to us. The fact that you have been travelling with Simba Tours since 2013 and have continued to choose us throughout the years is something both Paul and I are incredibly grateful for.
One of the things that touched us most was hearing that, after all these years, you feel the experience has remained consistent while continuing to improve. We are always looking for ways to make our tours even better, so knowing that our efforts are being noticed by someone who has experienced Simba through different chapters of its history is especially meaningful.
Your comments about professionalism, customer care, and creating memorable experiences perfectly capture what we strive for every day. We never want our guests to feel like just another number, and it is wonderful to hear that this commitment continues to shine through.
Noi will be absolutely delighted to read your kind words. He and the crew genuinely love what they do, and the care you witnessed him showing to nervous swimmers and snorkellers is exactly the sort of personal attention that makes him such a valued member of our team. We will be sure to pass along your thanks.
Thank you also for highlighting the value behind the Simba experience. We understand that there are many tour options available, and hearing a long-time guest explain why they continue to choose us is incredibly rewarding for our entire team.
Thank you for your loyalty, your support, and for being part of the Simba family for more than a decade. Guests like you are the reason we continue striving to raise the bar year after year. We look forward to welcoming you back onboard for many more adventures in the years ahead.
With our sincere thanks,
Best regards,
Andrea & Paul

Phang Na Bay Private Tour
We did a private speedboat tour around Phang Na Bay and it did not disappoint! The crew were super friendly and informative, we went at our own speed and they provided plenty of water and snacks. They took us to the best areas and we started earlier to avoid the crowds. Would definitely recommend and do it again!
We loved having you on board, Janet — glad everything ran smoothly from start to finish.

Went on a Phi Phi Sunrise tour with Simba in January 2026. The value for what you get is incredible. The guides are so friendly and knowledgable, even snorkelling with us and chatting to us and giving us all the best advice throughout the day. The morning pickup was on time and the tour was planned perfectly and ran so smoothly, we couldn't have had a better experience! Highly recommend!
Lydia, reading about your exceptional experience on the Phi Phi Sunrise tour truly brings a smile to our faces.

We had such a great VIP small group size trip to Phi Phi Islands two years ago with Simba. It was not as crowded as other tours due to the very early departure. Is was more than worth it and everything was well organized. I mostly remember the little breakfast on a blanket at the beach of an island.
We wanted to book another tour this year with Simba but unfortunately the don‘t operate from Krabi.
F, it's wonderful to hear that your VIP trip to the Phi Phi Islands with us was such a highlight! Those early departures certainly do make a difference in avoiding the crowds and we’re thrilled to know you found it worthwhile. The image of a little breakfast on the beach sounds lovely, and we're glad it left a lasting impression on you. We’re truly sorry we couldn't accommodate your trip from Krabi this time, but your fond memories mean the world to us. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope to create more cherished memories for you in the future!

Book now you won’t regret it
This was an absolutely amazing trip. Noi is a wonderful guide and engaged us all the entire time and took us to better snorkeling spots. Lunch was good if simple. Jumping off the top of the boat was fun. One caveat is sit on the left side of the boat on the way out if you want to see the sunset. The right side behind the captain was blocked from view the entire trip.
Thank you so much for your fantastic review! We’re delighted to hear you had such an amazing trip with us. Noi will be very happy to know he helped make the experience memorable and that you enjoyed the snorkeling spots, the boat jumping, and the overall atmosphere of the day.Thank you again for choosing Simba Sea Trips and for recommending us so highly.Best wishes,Andrea

Belle expérience !
Départ tôt (gros avantage pour éviter le monde), guide extra, aux petits soins et qui a pris de nombreuses photos.
L'avantage de cette excursion est que vous verrez beaucoup de choses en peu de temps... Le désavantage est que... vous verrez beaucoup de choses en peu de temps (sensation d'être un peu pressé pour tout) mais cela reste une belle aventure !
Caroline, it’s truly delightful to hear about your great adventure with us! Starting the day early can indeed offer a unique experience, and we're thrilled that our guide's attentiveness and photo-taking added to your enjoyment. We completely understand the feeling of seeing so much in one go, but we're glad it still felt like a wonderful journey for you. Your kind words mean a lot to us, and we hope to craft more memorable experiences for you in the future. Thanks for sharing your beautiful adventure!
