PaddleAsia operates private guided adventures in Phang Nga Bay, designed for solo travelers who want more than a standard tour. This page provides an overview of that experience, including routes, logistics, and inclusions.
The experience emphasizes remote seascapes and the island culture of Koh Yao Noi.
Your professional PaddleAsia lead guide is Mr. Run. He and all of his team were born and raised right here in Phang Nga Bay, offering true local expertise and knowledge.
This trip involves more kayaking than PaddleAsia’s standard tours.
Travelers seeking longer, more challenging routes can request them. Those preferring a gentler pace with more time to absorb the scenery can also be accommodated. Routes are adapted to fitness level and individual goals.
PaddleAsia does not use a longtail boat on every day of this trip. In most cases, a longtail is used on at least one day to access the northern areas of the bay. Final routing decisions are made by the guide based on conditions and guest preferences.
Included: transfers from anywhere on Phuket, ferry transfer to Koh Yao Noi, a lovely bungalow on the east coast of Koh Yao Noi, national park fees, lunch (also freshly ground coffee and tea), the use of a private longtail for at least one day, all kayaking equipment, insurance, and an Emergency First Response certified English-speaking guide.
Not included: dinner.
Alcohol, soft drinks, and fruit juices are not included, but are available for purchase.
