Overall the trip was excellant and the guide and boat crew were great, the only advise I would recommend is to have better steps at the back of the boat to get back on board after snorkelling. At our first snorkelling stop about 25 people got in the water and a lot of them struggled to get back on the boat so at the next swim stop only 3 people got off the boat!

Der Tag hat erst mal furchtbar angefangen, wir haben über eine Stunde auf den Transfer gewartet. Entschädigung dafür?! Fehlanzeige. Dadurch ist mal ja auch später los, also nichts mit Frühaufsteher Ausflug und leeren Stränden. Die malerischen Strände haben zum Glück einiges wieder gut gemacht. Was nicht schlecht wäre, wenn es Vll auch sprite oder so geben würde für Kinder.

Die Tour an sich war sehr schön und die Guides absolut nett. Etwas schade fand ich, dass man bei den Affen nicht wie auf dem Foto an den Strand gegangen ist, sondern diese nur relativ kurz vom Boot aus beobachtet hat. Die Zeit auf PhiPhi fand ich etwas kurz bemessen. 1,5h für Essen und Insel sind nicht besonders viel um Strand und Umgebung zu erkunden. Außerdem habe ich beim Buffet erst am Ende gesehen, dass es ganz in der Ecke bei den Getränken ein vegetarisches Buffet gab. Darauf wurde man leider nicht hingewiesen und so musste man jedes Angebot optisch prüfen, obwohl es ein rein vegetarisches Buffet gab. Ein Satz dazu wäre super gewesen. Die Strände und die Umgebung an sich waren wunderschön, daher kann ich die Tour empfehlen. An den Schnorchelstopps hatte mein dreijähriger leider kein Interesse. Allgemein fände ich ein Tourangebot mit mehr Zeit an den Stränden und ohne Stopps auf offenem Meer für Familien mit kleinen Kindern super. Sowas gibt es leider gar nicht bisher.
