The Hidden Trap of Phi Phi Island Tours! Why You Should Go to the Meeting Point on Your Own

Tips

“Since the Phi Phi Island tour includes hotel pickup, it should be convenient, right?”
If you think that way, you might be wasting a lot of precious time!

Most tours offer hotel transfers, but they use a shared shuttle system. This means the vehicle will stop at multiple hotels to pick up other participants, significantly increasing travel time.

The Downside of Shared Transfers: Wasted Time Both Ways

  • On the way there: Delays and unnecessary detours
    You wait in the hotel lobby on time, but the shuttle arrives 30 minutes late… sound familiar?
    Then, as the shuttle stops at multiple hotels, you might arrive at the pier just in time for departure, or even in a rush!

  • On the way back: Exhausted and stuck waiting
    After a full day of exploring Phi Phi Island, you return to the pier feeling tired. But before you can relax, you have to wait over an hour for your turn to board a shuttle.
    Even after getting on, the vehicle will stop at other hotels first, making the journey back long and exhausting.

Save Your Time – Go to the Meeting Point by Yourself!

The most common meeting point for Phi Phi Island tours is Boat Ramp Pier. If possible, drive yourself or take a taxi to the meeting point instead of using the shared shuttle.

Some tours may have different meeting points, so always check in advance.

To make the most of your Phi Phi Island adventure, minimize wasted time!
Getting to the meeting point on your own is the smartest choice.
