Phi Phi Cruiser

Phi Phi Cruiser earns a 4.51 rating from 701 reviews for its spacious, stable boats, friendly staff, easy check-in, and amenities like free water and watermelon, though reviews frequently note delays of 30-60 minutes, late hotel pickups, and crowded confusing boat changes at Ko Phi Phi that lead to smaller less comfortable onward vessels.

Glassflower

Glassflower achieves a 4.66 rating from 1385 reviews thanks to punctual friendly drivers, clean comfortable vehicles, safe smooth rides, and helpful extras like free water and flexible stops, while a minority of reviews flag occasional driver phone use, fatigue on long routes, or vehicles that do not match the booked class.
