Why You’ll Love Indigo

Air-Conditioned Cabin Comfort

Indigo places comfort first with an air-conditioned cabin, sofa seating and open sea-view spaces. Guests can cool down indoors, relax between stops and enjoy the Phi Phi route with a more polished onboard feel.

A More Boutique Phi Phi Experience

With a recommended capacity of around 40 guests, Indigo offers a smaller and more refined alternative to larger island tours. It is ideal for guests who want the classic Phi Phi route without a crowded boat atmosphere.

Thai Buffet Lunch Onboard

Unlike tours that stop for lunch at an island restaurant, Indigo serves a Thai buffet lunch onboard. This gives the day a smoother rhythm between sailing, photography, snorkeling and island time.

Pileh Lagoon by Long-Tail Boat

A Thai long-tail boat experience is included at Pileh Lagoon, giving guests a more photogenic way to enjoy the emerald water and limestone scenery. It is one of the strongest photo moments of the day.

Professional Photography Included

A professional photographer joins the tour, with 5 photos per person included. Guests can enjoy the day while still returning with polished travel memories from the catamaran, long-tail boat, Maya Bay and ocean activities.

Two Snorkeling Stops and Water Fun

Indigo includes two snorkeling spots plus water slide, transparent kayak, sea scooter and floating pool. The water program is easygoing and ideal for guests who want more than sightseeing.
