Khai Islands ( Khai Nok, Khai Nai, Khai Nui) Afternoon Program

We booked this half-day tour through our five-star hotel, as the receptionist highly recommended it for our limited time to explore the islands. Based on our previous experiences in Phi Phi and Krabi, we expected stunning scenery and a memorable adventure. Unfortunately, the reality was far from our expectations. We were crammed shoulder-to-shoulder onto a speedboat and taken to a small island littered with trash and broken glass. Upon arrival, we were immediately pressured to purchase umbrella seats for our brief 45-minute stay. When we politely declined, we were followed by numerous vendors hawking drinks, seats, and jet ski rides, making it impossible to enjoy the surroundings. Even as we tried to relax on the beach, the constant interruptions from salespeople made it unbearable. The next stop was another island, where we were informed we would only visit one more location instead of the promised three. This second stop was even more overcrowded, filled with tourists and relentless vendors. Again, we were pressured to buy seating for our hour there. Despite moving away from the chaos, we were still surrounded by people stepping over us and kicking sand in our direction. Frustrated and disappointed, we decided to separately purchase transport back to the main pier. The only redeeming aspect of this tour was the convenient pick-up and drop-off service, but overall, this tour did not meet our expectations.
