Great day out for everyone. A bit choppy out there but we had a great time. Food was very good and the crew excellent. Check in and the shuttle up the pier to board the boat was all well organised. The crew we happy to have us stay on the boat all day moving between islands to anchor up and swim from the boat. Snorkelling and paddleboard was available for us all to use. Plenty of space on the boat for us all. 7 adults, one 5 year old and a toddler 18 months old. Most important was that there was plenty of shade available for us all. Would recommend it to anyone interested in a private day trip on a boat in Phuket.

We rent a boat on every holiday we go and I must say this was on of the smoothest and most fun we had. Matt was very easy to communicate with. Meet and greet was easy and within minutes escorted easily to the boat. The boat was so comfortable. You can sprawl and move around on board and the space is amazing. The staff on the boat ... Amazing too! Service to a T ! Will return and will be back on board! :)

Experience far exceeded expectations!!! Every aspect of the rental was seamless…from communications, to transfers and our time on the boat. Crew was professional, knowledgable and friendly! Kiri is divine…. She moved gracefully through the water and allowed us to enjoy the day in complete comfort. I will be charting from Matt the next time I return to Phuket!!!

We had a great day with Matt and his team. Communication was spot on before , we managed to reschedule to avoid windy conditions. The service on board was great and the boat amazing. We definetly recommend it if you are kinda allergic to crowds has we are. Thanks to the onboard crew, Matt and Suzanne for dealing with our last minutes inquiries.

We had a wonderful day! We were greeted very warmly at the harbor and driven to the pier. The crew on board looked after us all day and planned our stay according to our wishes. The boat was well equipped and we were always provided with food and drinks.

The beautiful boat, very comfortable and with all the needs. The treatment on board was unbeatable, they were very friendly and treated us wonderfully, cutting us fruit and offering us drinks all the time. An incredible experience.
