Koh Samui Sightseeing Tour Around The Island

Kirsty_S, Apr 2026

Very good value for...

Very good value for money, you get to see a lot in the time your on the trip. Guides was polite and very accommodating. Nice cold drinks offered to us, no pressure to purchase items when stopping. Was advised we could taste ice cream flavours for free

Elephant Nature Care, the largest elephant sanctuary on Koh Samui

Annika_G, Apr 2026

We had a great experience

We had such a great time with the elephants! They were incredibly sweet and gentle. We got to prepare food for them, feed them plenty, and even help bathe them, which was such a special experience. It was amazing to see them roaming freely in a large, open space. We also appreciated seeing the many certifications they have showing their commitment to proper elephant care. It’s inspiring that they hope to build an elephant hospital in the future once they have enough funding. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting the island. Thank you for such a memorable experience—we’ll never forget it!

Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour

Russell_t, Mar 2026

Excellent Trip

Excellent from start to finish , the staff make this trip, they couldn't do enough to help , snorkeling in small groups of 4 with a guide is brilliant, the islands were amazing and lunch was one of the best and we've done many trips in Thailand. Please pay the extra its worth it for a boat with 12 guests and 5 staff so we were very well looked after. The extra cost is Bourne out in the above and beyond service you receive from pick up to drop off on the beach out the front of the hotel.

Private Customized Tour with Driver in Koh Samui

Amy_T, Mar 2026

Highly recommend this tour!

We traveled on the Norwegian Sun cruise ship. We booked this tour with an English speaking guide and driver. The tour was very reasonably priced compared to the excursion offered through the cruise. The booking was easy and through the Viator app, I was able to send a message to the tour company to confirm our pick-up location at Nathon Pier. They provided very clear instructions with a map. We were met at the pier by our guide Nong (apologies for any incorrect spelling) who was holding a sign with our group name. His English was excellent. He and the driver were very courteous! We really appreciate the skill of our driver as he had to navigate through some interesting traffic and tight spaces. Nong asked us where we wanted to visit and helped us determine if all the stops were possible in the time frame we had. It's good to have an idea of the places you want to visit. Nong shared interesting facts about the places we visited and answered our questions. I highly recommend this tour and Nong as your guide. I did not catch the driver's name, but he did a great job too!

Excellent tour of koh samui - shout iut to our guide Nikki, who brought so much energy and passion to the tour. For the price I was not expecting much more than transport but Nikki was great, took us to the main viewpoints, and understood a good level of English. I managed to have a quick lunch at the last stop (waterfall) which was useful given you get back later in the afternoon to the hotel

Koh Tao & Koh Nang Yuan Snorkeling Tour by Speed Boat from Samui

Rik_M, Feb 2026

Koh Tao/Ang Yuan Day Trip

Brilliant tour. Absolutely one of the best things to do while in Koh Samui. We were picked up on time from our hotel and the minivan journey to the pier was quite comfortable. As we had breakfast prior to our arrival, the food(just banans,bread/ butter, tea/coffee) was not taken into factor for this review. Toilet avaiable here was sanitary. The speedboat then took us to the 1st snorkelling spot which was really disappointing as the water was murky. We spent 45 mins here and then headed to the next spot,5mins away. Here on out , everything about this trip blew our minds. Koh Tao has water clearer than almost any other island, and snorkelling here was a dream. Spotted leopardfish,needlefish,parrotfish,sea turtles and titan triggerfish. (Tip: carry your own fins if you have as they didn't provide any) 45 minutes here went too fast and then we headed to a lunch spot on Koh Tao. The food this time was on point, with every dish being a definite hit. We were given time to go explore the nearby areas, mostly filled with dive shops and cafes. Finally, we headed to our final spot for the day, Ang Yuan beach marine park. Words wouldn't do justice , this place is simply a sight to behold. 2 options are given with a time of 1.5hrs. Either snorkel or go hike the viewpoint, with the hike taking 50mins in total. We decided to snorkel as it was blazingly hot when we went. The sea here has corals ,sea cucumbers and triggerfish in abundance. Seeing such beatiful and complex marine life when you're not even fully submerged in the water was the coolest aspect of this area. (Tip: If you need life jackets, get it prior to entering the beach area, for 550Baht deposit, refunded on return) The journey back took 1.5hrs , with us reaching the pier at 4.15pm. Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone with a day or two in Koh Samui.

Koh Samui Jungle Safari By JEEP With MR.UNG (Including Lunch)

David_C, Feb 2026

Amazing not to be missed.

Fabulous. Picked up from hotel by our driver Ea who was excellent and spoke good English. His driving was brilliant and we visited some amazing places and sights with excellent descriptions. Our lunch in a restaurant with amazing views of Samui was lovely and plentiful. The food was authentic Thai and delicious. The final act saw us engage in a water fight between jeeps which was superb and took me back about 40 years to my youth.we all had great fun and I would recommend this for seeing the inner Samui and having hours of fun.

2-Hour Koh Samui ATV Quad Tour

Michael_M, Dec 2025

Staff are excellent

It’s harder than I thought and I was very slow. The staff put me to the back as to not hold anyone up. I had a guy who worked for them with me the whole way and you know what, he was excellent. He even took a two minute video of me driving a quad through the Forrest. I started coming in to my own by the end. The views, the stop offs. This was an absolute experience and not to be missed
