What we checked, 18 September 2026

One operator is listed because one is what we can stand behind. The best-selling Phi Phi trip from Krabi reports 4.7 from 3,118 reviews, an identical count to the same seller's Four Islands trip, and we could not establish whether that is a shared rating across products or a coincidence, so we have not published it. The listed operator's 4.6 from 404 reviews is its own. The park fee comes from the department's published table, where the 400 baht rate is scoped to exactly these islands. We have not done this trip.

Verified via. The islands sit in the zone of Hat Noppharat Thara - Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park that the Department of National Parks prices at 400 baht for a foreign adult and 200 for a child, as against 200 and 100 for the rest of the park. The operator below was read off its own Klook listing page on 18 September 2026.

Phi Phi from Krabi is a shorter crossing than from Phuket, about 40km, and the same circuit at the other end: Maya Bay on Phi Phi Le, the Pileh Lagoon, Monkey Beach, a snorkel stop and often Bamboo Island.

The fee, and why it is the higher one here. The department’s table prices Hat Noppharat Thara - Mu Ko Phi Phi twice: 200 baht for a foreign adult in general, and 400 baht in the zone covering Phi Phi Don, Phi Phi Le and Bamboo Island. This trip goes to exactly that zone, so 400 is the right number to have in cash, and a listing that quotes 200 for a Phi Phi trip is quoting the wrong row.

Why only one operator. The trip that sells the most from Krabi reports an identical score and review count to the same seller’s Four Islands trip, down to the last review. We could not work out whether the platform is pooling ratings across that seller’s products, and publishing a figure we cannot explain is not something this site does. So the listing here is the one whose numbers are unambiguously its own, at 4.6 from 404 reviews, which clears our bar of 9.0 out of 10 and 50 reviews.

Maya Bay changes without notice. The bay was closed completely from 2018 to let the reef recover and has had seasonal closures since, under announcements the department publishes and we could not reach on the day we checked. Ask the operator what happens if it is shut on your date.

No trip prices here. US dollars, several packages, one figure would be wrong.
