Highlights
  • Simba Sea Trips - Arrive at our office for a briefing while you enjoy some breakfast snacks, tea and coffee to keep you going until breakfast on the beach.
  • Royal Phuket Marina - Phukets only 5 star marina. Marvel at the beautiful yachts as we embark on our adventure into the Andaman sea.
  • Koh Panak Cave - Koh Phanak

Koh Phanak is often our first stop for some intriguing cave exploration. Like Swiss cheese, Phanak is full of hidden caves, lagoons and hongs. We aim to select the very best location depending on the tide and weather on your day. So fire up your torches and step into a prehistoric world! Sightseeing is a strong suit of this tour since you will have the chance to see exclusive sights that not many people have seen in their lives.

  • Hong Islands - Sea Canoeing

Hong island is a stunning location for a scenic canoe trip. It is simply the best way to see these geological wonders up close and personal. Let the Thai guide take you into hongs and caves only accessible by canoe. Cruise the waters on the canoes and marvel the real natural beauty that has formed over hundreds of years, creating an amazing spectacle that will remain forever in your memory.

  • James Bond Island - Arguably the most famous spot in the bay, it’s been a Mecca for Thai and Western tourists for over four decades, is the James Bond Island tour stop. You’ve come all this way and as Simba generally arrives well before the masses, we make a quick stop to see what all the fuss is about. This limestone marvel is perfect for you to take pictures.
  • Kudu Island - Treasure Island/Secret Hong Swimming

Just a few minutes from James Bond island lays a fantastic hidden cave, only accessible by swimming through a narrow passage. Jump off the front of the boat, swim to the beach. It’s the perfect opportunity to cool off before we move across the bay. This stop is subject to tide conditions and an equally beautiful and quiet beach may be selected where sea or tide conditions allow for a better experience.

  • Chong Lard Pier - As described, a truly unique location, still holding fast to a traditional existence in the face of it’s bustling brother, Phuket. Our tour takes a decidedly ‘terra firma’ turn, as we take a short trip across the south of the island to a stunning local Thai restaurant for a delicious Thai lunch.
  • Laem Haad Beach - The afternoon will take us to any number of beautiful beaches depending on tide and weather conditions. This is a chance to swim, relax, enjoy a light afternoon tea and sample the scenery before heading home.

Just wow! - I have to say this was the best holiday excursion I have ever been on. From initial communication to always feeling like you were being looked after, the trip was wonderful. We were picked up at 6am and arrived at the marina for coffee and snacks before we set sail. It felt like a very early start but Simba make sure you avoid the crowds so the early morning was definitely worth it. The crew were fantastic on the boat and Harry was so knowledgeable and charismatic. They really care about their group and the environment. We went through caves, saw monkeys, kayaked, had an amazing Thai lunch (super delicious) and chilled on a desert island beach with the option to swim. We were then taken home again. I can’t recommend Simba enough. Thank you for a wonderful day.

Wonderful tour - Wonderful tour and tour guide. Crew were very friendly and helpful. The only negative and it has nothing to do with tour, the amount of trash on the beaches and in the ocean is terrible. Who wants to snorkel in garbage. In my opinion the are strangling the golden goose.

Everything advertised and better - Wow! Highlight of our Asia trip. Our tour guide spoke excellent English. The group was small enough that you didn't feel like you were always waiting in line plus we made friends with each other. Fantastic photo ops. Phenomenal customer service. This was everything advertised and more.

Loved this boat trip faultless ! - We loved this trip after plenty of research before I was not disappointed. Everything was high quality lovely breakfast to start after getting up so early and hotel pick up . The boat and crew were excellent, staff very helpful and kind . It was a fun trip canoeing caving etc and we were the first boat to reach James Bond island . We have some lovely pictures no crowds and not squashed onto a boat with too many people . You can get cheaper trips but they would never compare to this , after traveling so far for the holiday it Realy is worth it the views were unreal I’d book another trip with them if I ever return thank you Simba !

Brilliant day on the water - Today we went on Simba's Phang Nga Bay & Beyond cruise and what a great experience it was. The crew were highly experienced and a genuine desire to look after our every need. Then there was the food, from breakfast on a quiet sandy beach to a sumptuous Thai lunch not to mention the all day snacks of fruit and Thai nibbles. Faultless in every way, I will definitely use Simba again and would recommend to anyone wanting a fun day on the water whilst seeing beautiful Phang Nga.

Fun day trip - Such a fun day trip! What stood out was the service we received on the boat- it was exceptional. Fresh fruit, snacks, and lunch all provided. The boat is a speed boat and is not comfortable- as long as you know that, you will enjoy the trip. The views are amazing and worth it. Try to sit in the front and wear sunscreen!

Absolutely fabulous trip - At first we were a bit put off by the early start, but my goodness was it worth it! By setting out early we got to James Bond Island at about 9:30am which meant we missed all the crowds! Harry our guide was friendly, informative and funny. We got to explore caves and see monkeys, got some lovely pictures at James Bond Island, and were taken canoeing. Because it’s only a small boat with up to 16 guests I believe, it felt far more personal and was more enjoyable. Lunch was the only part which was slightly disappointing as we didn’t go to the restaurant mentioned in the itinerary. There was no journey in a small truck to get there, and the food was very average. After lunch we were taken to a treasure island where we were able to swim, sunbathe or explore. We were offered snacks and drinks throughout the day by the friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip from start to finish. I would highly recommend you do a tour with Simba Sea Trips.

Issues with Tour, but Solid Company - There were problems with the engines and the tour guide on my tour. That said, the company owner promptly took action and refunded my ticket. I believe Simba is a solid operator, and while things can go wrong anywhere, at least Simba actually does something to improve and help the customer out. Besides that, the tour was beautiful and came to the various tourist spots earlier in the day, which avoided massive crowds.
