Koh Phi Phi Private Speedboat: A fast way to go around

Explore the wonders of Koh Phi Phi on a private speedboat charter around the islands. Chartering your own private boat allows you to make the most of your day as you are fully in charge and free to adapt the itinerary to your personal requirements. Let’s visit Maya Bay and much more together!

If you are looking for a private boat to go around Koh Phi Phi, your alternatives are limited. You usually can choose between a private speedboat or a more traditional option with the Thai wooden boat: the longtail boat. A longtail will offer you a more authentic and chilled experience when a speedboat will offer more flexibility in your itinerary.

Why choose a private speedboat over a longtail boat?

The main difference is the speedboat’s speed. As it is a fast boat, a day around Koh Phi Phi on a private speedboat will allow you to visit more places and/or stay longer at each location. You can just adapt your program at any time depending on what you prefer to do. A longtail will be much slower and therefore flexibility itinerary alternatives might not be as easy. Is a private speedboat a better option? That depends on which criteria you will determine your decision, I would say that the speedboat is probably a preferable overall choice for families with kids or older people, it is also a more comfortable alternative but with definitely less authenticity than a longtail.

The National Park rangers can hop on your boat anywhere at any time to request you the pay the mandatory fee of 400 THB (200 THB for kids under 12 years old) if it’s not included in your tour price.

What about maya bay? is it open?

Yes! Good news! After being closed for more than 3 years (since June 2018) mostly to allow its ecosystem to recover, Maya Bay is now finally reopened. Tourists are now allowed to step on the “Beach” but there are some changes and new regulations to this reopening, though:
