Phi Phi Highlights Sunset Cocktail Tour
Visiting Phi Phi islands, made famous by the film 'The Beach', is on most people's Thailand Bucket list.
As people who love the film and the book, we were no exception, we were dying to see Phi Phi Islands, especially Maya Bay, where The Beach was actually filmed.
So we joined up with the best travel agency in Krabi: Krabi Spesialisten, to take the Phi Phi Highlights and Sunset Cruise and this is what we thought:
Pick up
In the morning (8.30am) we sat in our hotel lobby with another guest who was also going to Phi Phi, but with another company. A dusty, rusty old bus with no windows pulled up outside, and we held our breath to see who'd be going on it. Luckily for us, it was him.
Two minutes later, our pristine, air conditioned mini van with blacked out windows pulled up, and we gratefully climbed in.
The mini van took us down to the sea, where we climbed into a longtail boat which took us out to our Indonesian Phinisi boat - aka 'The Freedom'!
This homely, wooden, sailing boat certainly did feel a lot like freedom, there were comfy chairs and beanbags for us to sit on and we were served tea, coffee and cake.
We then set off at a leisurely pace which ensured two things: 1) we had time to truly relax, sunbathe, read our books and enjoy the ocean scenery and the superb karsts:
It also meant that 2) we were able to avoid the crowds - most tours set off in the morning by speedboat, and when they reach the islands, they have to fight for a space. When we got there, most of the crowd was gone!

Our first spot gave us three awesome things: clear waters, fish and wild monkeys!
There were lots of monkeys hanging out on the beach. Although you're not allowed to feed the monkeys, plenty of people (who didn't know or didn't care) were, which gave us the chance to take some photos!
Monkeys will try and steal anything they can, and we were grateful that the captain of our ship warned us about this beforehand, and recommended we left non essentials (like towels) on the boat.
After we'd admired the monkeys, we jumped into the clear ocean. We were so happy that our boat lent us a snorkel kit, because there were lots of fish to see!
Lunch
Back on the boat, it was time for lunch, which was delicious. For starters there was an amazing coconut soup, which was followed by rice served with three different dishes: spicy cashew chicken, soy sauce beef, and a vegetable vegetarian option. We went for all three and all three were delectable.
Next, our ship docked in Maya Bay and we got on another longtail boat to get onto Maya Beach. With Moby's 'Porcelain' playing in our heads, we awwed at the natural beauty, and understood why it had been picked for 'The Beach'. It really is the most beautiful beach ever!
There were still a fair few tourists there (understandably) but we didn't have to search hard to find a good spot:
We then got back onto the longtail boat and back into our ship which was still docked in Maya Bay. Here we had some awesome snorkelling fun!
This was the highlight of our day, the scenery was awesome and there were lots of beautiful fish to see:
The boat also proved to be a great spot to dive from:
After a full day of swimming, snorkelling, sun and fun, we were happy to get back on 'the Freedom' and relax our way home.
At sunset we were served a cocktail and some canapes. It was the perfect way to end the day.
The mini van took us back to our hotel, where we were so excited to share our adventures, we spent the next couple of hours making our daily vlog:
Conclusion
Of the 26 days we spent in Thailand, this day was one of our absolute favourites, the combination of luxury, breathtaking scenery and wildlife is an absolute winner, and ticking off one of our bucket list items (seeing the beach from 'The Beach') was an added bonus!
We're really glad we went with Krabi Spesialisten and highly recommend that you do too. They are the perfect company to visit Phi Phi with, because they are professional and luxurious.

We would never recommend anything we haven't personally tried and loved, because that's not cool. Two days after our sunset tour, we went on another tour with Krabi Spesialisten (blog post coming soon), and you know we wouldn't do that if we hadn't loved the first tour!!!
