“It has been an amazing trip in every sense, from organization to the views. You get your moneys worth with all the attractions from snorkeling, through beautiful beaches. At each stop we had more than enough time for everything. Our guid AJ has been really attentive, made sure to showed us all the unique fish, even offered to make footage for us himself when we could not go as deep. Dîner offered was also much better than what we we were offered on previous excursions, both vegeterian and meat options have been delicious with so much you can eat full. Word of advice though I would take some snacks and…”

Und vom Plankton war gar nicht mehr die Rede. Es wurde kurz auf offener See angehalten und den Sonnenuntergang abgewartet. FAZIT:Ersten Teil gut und dann ging es abwärts”

14.Railay Sunset and Bioluminescent Plankton Tour

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 55 reviews · 3 hours - 210 minutes · from $31

Railay Beach sunset and a night bioluminescent plankton show on a traditional longtail boat from Ao Nang, with snacks and fruit.

“Everything was very rushed and we left about 30min late due to some late passengers. The boat look ok but the steps are not safe and the guy supposedly helping people in and out was not that bothered. I ended up slipping and hurting my foot and not even an apology or a "are you ok?". Railay is obviously nice but too crowded with boats and people and the planktom is hit and miss. There are many others beached in thailand and even in Krabi that will be better”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 46 reviews · from $40

Krabi 7 Islands sunset longtail boat with snorkeling, Poda Island buffet, and night swimming with bioluminescent plankton at Koh Raeng.

“It was good, we bought dinner and when we arrived on the island there was some confusion because they weren't sure if we could have dinner or not. The company got confused, we had to show the voucher, but they still restricted us to the vegetarian buffet. We couldn't resolve the issue. Other than that, I recommend motion sickness medication because it's many hours on the boat. If I were to do it again, I would take the private tour because there are many people, it's many hours, and it's a little tiring.”
