EXCELLENTVerified Amazing day We had the most amazing day with Tiger Marine Charter! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The crew were incredibly welcoming, generous, and attentive - they couldn’t do enough for us and made sure we had an unforgettable experience. There was so much delicious food throughout the day, and the inflatable slide was an absolute highlight. It was the perfect mix of relaxation, adventure, and fun.

It was absolutely the best we experienced while in phuket. Roger greeted us and also upgraded our boat as he wanted to ensure the best experience for us. His team of 4 on the boat were truly superb and catered to our every need. The food was amazing!! Highly recommend this!!!Posted on TripadvisorVerified The Ultimate Memory Maker We have been using Tiger Marine for the past 12 years & will not use any other company purely because of the incredible perfection to detail available on each cruise . Richard the owner of Tiger Marine personally meets his guests in such a fun and friendly manner . The excitement starts immediately …. We were introduced to our very knowledgeable crew & to say they couldn’t have made our day any better is an understatement. Wave ( Captain) Noona & Ton did everything to make our day cruise exceptional. Connect your phone to the Bluetooth for good music. We had chartered Richard’s latest new edition of catamaran’s “Zambezia” which as you would expect , magnificent vessel, spacious & very comfortable with plenty of seating on various positions for viewing . We moored up in crystal clear waters whilst our delicious lunch was prepared. Our family enjoyed snorkeling. Kayaks, the swimming pool ( attached to the boat ) the slide ! SO much fun and laughter the entire day . Nobody could wish for the most special memorable day ever. We were also lucky to have a perfect, sunny day that just simply made our day perfect in every way . I can 100% recommend TIGER MARINE for one of the best experiences of Phuket,Thailand . There isn’tPosted on TripadvisorVerified Excellent boat charter! We chartered the 40 foot Leopard for a day trip. Pick up from the hotel in an air conditioned van for the trip to the marina. Met at the boat by Richard who introduced us to the boat and the crew (captain, deck hand and steward). Boat in tip top shape and what I love about the Leopard class is the large covered flybridge where you can get the breeze whilst staying in the shade. There are also multiple spaces on the boat for those who want a bit of space. We were extremely well looked after by the crew and were served a tasty lunch. Boat had a slide, floating netted pool, float mat and paddle board - all enjoyed. Will definitely use Tiger Marine for a repeat charter.Posted on TripadvisorVerified You're missing out, if you do not charter Tiger Marine Charter. An absolute must whilst in Phuket. This is the second time we have procured Tiger Marine Charter. Richard, the CEO is an exceptional and professional individual supported by an incredible crew. The same crew who were there on our first trip that speaks in volumes in my opinion. As a CEO / Lawyer myself I pride myself on supporting my staff, quality control and being 'boots on the ground' with new customers or the like. Richard always makes himself known, checks the routes you want to take and makes wonderful suggestions bases on weather, appetite and guest journey. As a retired professional airline pilot, you can see Richard is meticulous, calm and ready to make sure everything is smooth sailing. He conquered the skies and now he conquers the sea. He is not just a maritime company, he arranges accommodation, villa's and overall concierge services. The Captain and Crew on the boat are exceptional to. The service is high quality coupled with amazing cuisine (all cooked on board) with beautiful presentation. It comes as no surprise that everytime we go on board we extend our day trip to sunset as you do not want to leave this amazing experience. I not only highly recommend this experience but it is a MUST if you are visiting Phuket. Make sure you introduce yourself to Richard, he is a first class gentleman. Thank you Tiger Marine Charter XPosted on TripadvisorVerified Amazing multi- family day trip Richard’s boat and crew gave out families an amazing day with outstanding private island visit.Posted on TripadvisorVerified relaxing the boat was so clean!!! i went on a half day trip with my daughters, it’s our first time exploring phuket, the staff were very welcoming and responsive. the ocean was beautiful.Posted on TripadvisorVerified Daily tour to Phang Nga Bay, James Bond Island, Hong Island and Naka Island I don’t usually write reviews.

The food was delicious and the venue organised to have our lunch - private beach with not a soul except 17 of us!! Wow in this day and age unheard of. The beach was perfect and the water so clear. Then heading back - omg the sunset - outstanding! We could not have asked for a more perfect day. The whole crew were exceptional - attending to our every need and so attentive.

EXCELLENTTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently chartered Tiger Marine’s 43-foot Leopard Power Catamaran for the full-day (8-hour) trip, and it exceeded every expectation. As owners of our own 42-foot yacht, we’re very familiar with boating and know what it takes to operate a first-class charter. Tiger Marine impressed us in every way. From the comfortable round-trip transportation to the moment we returned to the marina, everything was seamless and professionally organized. Captain Wave was outstanding—professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and always made everyone feel safe while ensuring we had an incredible day. Chef Nop deserves special recognition. We chose the Seafood BBQ, and it was one of the best meals we had in Phuket. The seafood was incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked, and there was an amazing variety of food. Along with the barbecue, we enjoyed delicious chicken wings, authentic Tom Yum soup, spicy green papaya salad, fresh fruit, appetizers, snacks, and plenty of cold drinks throughout the day. The quality rivaled many excellent restaurants, and there was far more food than our group could possibly eat. It truly felt like having a private chef onboard. Nok, our deckhand, never stopped working. He was constantly helping with the slide, paddleboards, snorkeling gear, towels, drinks, and every water activity. The crew anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. The yacht itself was spotless, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The slide and water toys kept everyone entertained for hours, and every activity was set up quickly and professionally. A special thank you to Richard, the owner, who personally greeted us before departure, introduced us to the crew, and made sure every detail was perfect before we left. He was waiting for us again when we returned to make sure everything exceeded our expectations. That level of customer service says a lot about how much he cares about his guests. As yacht owners, we understand how much work goes on behind the scenes. The professionalism, teamwork, attention to detail, hospitality, and genuine care shown by the entire crew were exceptional. They made the entire day look effortless while providing first-class service for the full eight hours. If you’re looking for the best private yacht charter in Phuket, we highly recommend Tiger Marine. Thank you, Richard, Captain Wave, Chef Nop, and Nok for an unforgettable experience. We’ll definitely be back!Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had an excellent day aboard the leopard 53 boat!

I cannot recommend this company highly enough. We were looked after by Ron, Ton, and Nok, who made our day truly unforgettable. We travel to different countries every year and always include a private boat cruise as part of our family holiday. Without question, this was the best boating experience we have ever had anywhere in the world. We are already planning our trip back next year that is how exceptional it was. The booking process was also seamless, despite our reservation being made at the last minute. Richard and the team were incredibly helpful, responsive, and accommodating from start to finish. Thank you, Richard, Ron, Ton, Nok, and the entire team for giving our family one of the most memorable days we have ever experienced. We will treasure these memories forever and cannot wait to come back next year!Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We rented one of the 43 foot yachts for a group of 10 people. Had an absolutely amazing time with the crew. They took us to 2 islands where we could snorkel, slide down the water slide, and relax on the beaches. Would highly recommend this company as their communication was so quick and efficient.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard greeted us upon our arrival introduced us to the crew of 4 who were tending to our group of 17. It was an amazing day on the Sanyati with the Captain, Chef Tom, Max and Nok meeting our every need and want throughout the day. Try to experience the sunset on the boat if at all possible, it was a perfect way to end an amazing day on the yacht. Richard then met up with us at the end of the day to ensure we were happy. We were in Phuket for about 10 days and our group consistently said this was the best adventure we did. I would highly recommend Tiger Marine Charter for your yachting adventures!Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fantastic experience from start to finish! The crew was super professional, friendly, and engaging. Great food and top-notch service from a very helpful team. We loved that the CEO, Richard, took the time to personally greet us and say goodbye—truly sincere hospitality. Definitely coming back!Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Honestly one of the best yacht experiences I’ve had. Everything was organized professionally from the beginning until the end. The catamaran was beautiful, very clean, spacious, and extremely comfortable for families. The entire crew was amazing, respectful, friendly, and always paying attention to every detail. The food was excellent, fresh, and presented perfectly, and the chef did a fantastic job throughout the trip. All the water activities and equipment were in excellent condition and well prepared. What impressed me the most was their level of care and hospitality, which even extended to my 8-month-old daughter. They genuinely made us feel comfortable, welcomed, and safe during the entire experience. This was not just a yacht trip, it felt like a luxury family experience that created unforgettable memories for us. Highly recommended, and I would absolutely book with them again.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Roger greeted us upon arrival. What a great individual. He upgraded our boat to ensure the best ride/experience. The boat crew, team of 4, were truly amazing, catered to our every need. They had a slide, paddle board, took us on a dinghy to get on the islands.. The food was cooked on the boat/fresh and was absolutely amazing. One of the best excursions we have experienced. Roger and team thank you, you helped create memories that will last a lifetime.Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An exceptional experience in every sense From the very first moment, we were warmly welcomed by the yacht owner with great professionalism. We were pleasantly surprised with an additional complimentary hour, which truly reflects their generosity and dedication to customer satisfaction. The yacht was impeccably clean, and the overall experience felt like a five-star floating hotel. The crew was highly professional and attentive, always proactive and never waiting to be asked – they anticipated our needs and provided outstanding service throughout the trip. The food was absolutely delicious, freshly prepared by the crew, along with a great selection of fresh fruits and drinks available at all times. The water activities equipment was also well-prepared and added a lot of fun to the experience. Honestly, it was a true VIP experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and private yacht trip. Without a doubt, I will be booking with them again on my next visit.
