Description
Embark on an epic adventure via canoe and longtail boat on this guided trip, including transportation from Phuket and lunch. Discover the wonders of the Monkey Cave, Panyee Island, and Talu Cave.
Paddle a canoe and ride a longtail boat on this multi-stop adventure tour from Phuket with private and shared options. Taste local food, swim at Talu Cave, and visit James Bond Island to see the majestic limestone karsts made famous by the 1974 James Bond movie, “The Man with the Golden Gun.”
After pickup from your hotel in Phuket, head straight to the first stop of the day, Wat Suwan Khuha, also known as the Monkey Cave, because of the rambunctious primates living in the temple complex. Descend into the cave temple and look at the statues and carvings before making your way to the pier.
Next, board a longtail boat and sail to the second stop, Panyee Island, also known as the Floating Village. Built on stilts by the local fishermen, the island has been inhabited since the 18th century. Explore the village, taking in local life, before having lunch at a restaurant in the village.
After stuffing your belly with delicious local fare, board the boat again to make your way to Talu Cave. Enjoy some time to canoe and swim in the beautiful blue water and explore the cave area and its glittering crystals. Then, continue to the day’s main attraction, James Bond Island.
Stop at the perfect viewpoint to see the breathtaking rock formation. Standing roughly 20 meters tall, the solitary cliff surrounded by turquoise waters and nearby cliffs makes a picturesque momento to remember the day’s adventure. After taking in the views, start the journey back to Phuket.
