Fantastic ATV experience
The ATV 2 hrs experience was fantastic. Staff gave an introduction how to operate the vehicle then off you go. Very attentive with one staff leading and 1 staff trailing. We did off road and through the water. Just a little challenge to have fun , but also keeping it safe. They took photos and videos along the way and WhatsApp us at the end.

Best snorkeling trip for serious snorkelers
Phuket’s Best Trip for Real Snorkelers
If you are a serious snorkeler, skip the high-rated Phi Phi "mass-market" tours. Those trips target casual tourists who often can't swim and prioritize buffet food or Instagram photos over the water. On those tours, I’ve been forced to wear a life jacket and stuck in crowded spots where guides feed fish for "pretty pictures."
This trip is different. It’s tailored for people who prioritize underwater time over everything else.
The Highlights:
• Cultural Start: Visited a Moken village to see their unique, traditional way of life.
• Serious Snorkeling: Three distinct spots with 30–40 minutes of swim time at each.
• Marine Life: Stunning reefs, diverse fish, and I even spotted a small shark.
• Expert Crew: Very competent captains and guides who actually know the water.
The only downside:
It is extremely far from Phuket (we stayed in Karon). Mentally prepare for several hours of travel each way, but it is 100% worth it if you want to escape the crowds.
I struggled to find a non-tourist-trap excursion and was hesitant due to the low review count, but this exceeded all expectations. Highly recommended for enthusiasts.

Good experience
Very good organised trip, Marta our guide was very informative and pleasant. Water rafting was good and an experience whilst here in Thailand. Take a towel and change of clothing as we did get a little wet. It was a nice half day trip for us which also included the turtle sanctuary and the waterfall was dry at this time of year but she took us to a temple instead. Glad we did it.

Pleasant Half Day Trip
The pick up was on time and the travel less than 30 minutes to the Tuttle Conservation centre. Seeing and hearing about the Conservation work undertaken was interesting and as a bonus one of the Tsunami memorials are situated here which was poignant. We were taken to a waterfall but being as we are still in the dry season (early April) it was a trickle. The rafting was a really pleasant experience, wow the rafters put some work in. Be prepared to be wet as you are basically sat in the water. As with our all round experience in Thailand there is no pressure to up sell souvenirs, photos etc

A Great Day Trip
It’s a great itinerary, and the scenery is beautiful. Our guide and driver were excellent. The lunch spot was perfect—beautiful setting and delicious food. We were hoping the guide could share a bit more about Thailand’s history, culture, and plantations during the journey. Overall, it was a great tour.

Awesome elephant tour!
This was a wonderful small group tour and we got to feed the elephants, take lots of pictures, and talk with the guides at length about the elephants. The elephants only do what they want to do, so very respectful of the animals. And each elephant has it’s own personality and you really get to see that on this tour. Highly recommend it!

Brilliant experience
Brilliant authentic experience learning how to cook a variety of Thai dishes. Great for all skill levels, with a warm and welcoming team.
Also, a remarkable selection of craft beers. Easily some of the best I've had since being in Thailand.
Thank you Chef Wandee, Chef Sarah and the rest of the team!

Perfect Little Team
From the moment we met Apple we knew it was a good choice booking our cooking lesson with her.
She was friendly, knowledgeable, funny and professional and even gave us some fresh Aloe Vera and told me how to prepare it for my partners sun burn! It was very interesting/eye opening visiting the market with her beforehand and the class venue is lovely and quaint. It was a great idea that you get to try everyone else’s food as I have now discovered I have new favourite Thai dishes. I would absolutely recommend this trip and would definitely do it again.
Also a big shout out to the two young ladies helping in the kitchen unfortunately, I didn’t get their names but they were fabulous, very helpful, friendly and polite. Also thank you to the driver who also helped my partner (😬) find some rehydration sachets as he was feeling a bit wobbly, also from the sunburn!
All in all Apple and her team were perfect!

Fabulous trip
We had a wonderful day with Marta our guide. Collected from our hotel in a small van with 8 others, our first stop to the long boat for travel to the sea canoes. Amazing scenery along the way. Sea canoes were brilliant especially as a family of three we were kept together by our canoeists which meant we could take photos etc. wonderful to go through the mango forest and see the monkeys. Onwards to James Bond island which as previously mentioned is exceptionally busy!! Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. We had a buffet style lunch at the floating village which catered for everyone and then some free time to wonder - don’t get lost!! Boat ride back and then onto the monkey temple. I took some towels with me so was able to cover my shoulders and knees ( ladies only). We didn’t feed the monkeys as advised but there are plenty of other tourists that do.
Overall a full day but worth doing. We had a great time and was very well looked after.

Beautiful
Such a great day! Our guide Sea and the team were fantastic. Everything was very well organised and ran smoothly. Stopped in some beautiful locations for snorkelling which was incredible. The island we stopped at for lunch was amazing, powdery white sand and great food. Highly recommend this trip.

Khao Lak is famous for its beautiful beaches and easy access to the Thai islands. To explore the area with ease, take one of the many Khao Lak tours on offer––there’s something for everyone. Zip over to James Bond Island, featured in The Man With the Golden Gun; hop on a traditional bamboo raft for a serene turtle-spotting excursion; or admire elephants in their natural habitat at a sanctuary. Of course, no trip to Thailand would be complete without a cooking lesson, where you can learn to whip up classic Thai dishes such as red curry and pad thai.
