Why go, and how to do it well

Longtai Boat Phuket offers private longtail boat charters operating out of Phuket's Kamala area, giving travelers a way to explore the island's surrounding waters away from the crowds. The service runs both half-day and full-day tours, with popular routes including James Bond Island and various smaller islands and coves that are difficult to reach by other means. The focus on private charters means groups have the boat to themselves, with a dedicated captain and crew attending to the experience throughout.

Visitors consistently highlight the attentiveness of the captain and crew, who handle logistics from start to finish including pick-up arrangements. On the water, guests have enjoyed activities such as snorkeling, paddle boarding, and relaxing in secluded coves, with fresh-cut fruit often provided on board. The boats are reported to be well-maintained, and the crew is noted for being accommodating to families traveling with children as well as larger groups.

Advance booking is strongly recommended, particularly for those traveling during Phuket's busy high season between November and April. The service is listed as available seven days a week and operates around the clock in terms of booking availability. Prospective visitors can find itinerary details and make inquiries through the operator's website at longtailboat-phuket.com. Those with specific destinations or activities in mind, such as a particular island or snorkeling spot, are advised to communicate preferences when booking to help the crew plan accordingly.

Reviews from Google

My wife and I booked this private boat and it was the best decision ever. The boat captain and his deck hand were amazing, they took care of every single detail. The boat was in great condition and very comfortable. We were taken to a lot of amazing & beautiful islands. At each stop they allowed us time to enjoy each place before moving on to the next. They were also flexible when we asked to skip something to have more time at another place. They customized the tour for our needs and that made the day even more special. The lunch that they set up for us on the beach was out of this world, my wife loved it. I can’t say enough about how great this tour is, I will definitely book again if I am ever back in Phuket.

Highly recommend if you come to Phuket book this full day private boat tour! My friends and I had an amazing time island hoping for my birthday. The captain and crew were so nice and accommodating. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. We visited Koh Hong Krabi, Laem Hat Yao, Sharpen Lading and Pak Bia Island. We swam at each location. The food they provided was delicious, the fruit was fresh and the drinks were cold. 10/10 recommend! Thank you for an amazing experience!

What an amazing experience. We did a half day private Longtailboat experience. We were two adults and two children. It was fantastic. From the organisation, the pick up and the crew on board. We were taken to two beautiful paradise islands and one snorkelling spot off the boat. The half day was prefect and I would highly recommend.
