Phu Quoc 4-Island Snorkeling & Cable Car Tour: What You Need to Know

 If you are planning a trip to Phu Quoc, the 4-island speedboat tour is likely on your radar. Reviews online can be confusing—some travelers claim it is an absolute highlight, while others express disappointment over crowded beaches and reef condition. Here is a clear, honest breakdown of the route to help you decide if it fits your travel style.

The day centers around the southern An Thoi archipelago. One of the most popular package options is the 4-island snorkeling tour with cable car, which combines island hopping with lunch and the famous over-sea cable car ride for around $83 USD.

Tour Breakdown by Stop

Coral Park

The boat briefly stops near Namaste Coral Park for the optional Seawalker add-on. If you don't book Seawalker, you simply wait on the boat for about 15 minutes before moving to the next island.

Hon May Rut

Hon May Rut is the primary beach stop. Expect clear shallow water, palm trees, and drone photography provided by the crew. If you prefer swimming over photos, your guide can lead you to a quiet fringing reef nearby.

Hon Gam Ghi

The main snorkeling spot is Hon Gam Ghi, known for hard corals lying just below the surface. While years of tourism have worn down central parts of the reef, the outer edges still offer good visibility and plenty of fish during dry season.

Hon Thom and Cable Car Return

The tour finishes at Hon Thom for a buffet lunch and access to Aquatopia Water Park. Finally, guests board the cable car back to Anh Duong Station in An Thoi.

Is the Combo Package Worth It?

Since a standalone Hon Thom cable car ticket costs around 850,000 VND ($33 USD), combining it with a speedboat tour, water park access, and a buffet lunch is cost-effective. However, serious divers looking exclusively for pristine reefs might prefer a dedicated scuba diving tour instead.
