Program details
Ko Phi Phi Ley, also known as the Viking.It's the most spectacular island for scenery and the second largest island of the archipelago. There is also one large, shallow fjord-like inlet called Pi Ley, with a small coral reef at the entrance. Phi Phi Ley was the location for filming of The Beach movie. Enjoy time for snorkeling at this unbelievable tropical paradise. On this scenic Thailand tour you'll see another island, Phi Phi Don, and its amazing cliffs, long beaches, and clear blue and emerald water; upon reflection of the sun, the water looks like glass.
Continue with a visit to Phi Phi Don, the largest of the islands in the Ko Phi Phi archipelago. It is the only island in the group with permanent inhabitants. What's so unique about this island is that unlike other islands in the archipelago, Phi Phi Don is a non-volcanic island largely made of limestone. It is almost separated into two islands, except for a strip of flat land connecting its two halves. On this thin land bridge lies the largest town on the island, and various popular resorts.
Monkey Beach is located on the southwestern side of Tonsai Bay, about 700m from the jetty. It is a simply stunning 150m-long strip of white powdery sand fringed by emerald water. The backside of the beach is a rather steep limestone cliff, covered with lush vegetation that offers monkeys a comfortable habitat, which is where it gets its name from.
