Top Thailand Day Trips

Best thing we did in Thailand - the elephants were amazing. The day was well organised - WhatsApp confirmed pick up time. Guide Paul and Mr Arm looked after us and took plenty of photos. The waterfall was fun - glad we took our waterproof phone case though.

Very easy booking, let us choose our own itinerary but made recommendations to make the most of our time. Our driver (Laem, excuse my spelling) was early to our hotel. We rode in a very nice, newer minibus with good air conditioning, and ice cold water was provided during the trip. Our driver spoke excellent English and communicated very well, and was able to share facts and points of interest along our route. We had plenty of time to explore each location at our own pace and he even took photos for us. The day ended with him bringing us to a local food market where he pointed out some of his personal favorites and even helped us order and get the food packaged up to bring back to our hotel. The service was above and beyond and really made our tour experience memorable. Would highly recommend for a private tour of the island with a local touch!

I had an amazing experience on this trip and it exceeded my expectations. Mr. Oom our guide is quite a character and made the long day enjoyable. Because this is a long day with the drive there and back. Once there the visit to the small museum and then the real attraction begins with the long boat to the bridge then watching the train cross then you can cross at your leisure. Then a short drive to the station for a 75min train journey through picturesque country side. You should be aware that as the windows are open to see everything fumes and dust do enter the coaches but it's a small price to pay for the experience. After the train ride we went for the buffet lunch at a restaurant with beautiful views over the valley and the food wasn't bad either. Overall I would say this trip is worth the cost and the time.

I thought it was very well organized there wasn't any hanging about and our guide Meaw was knowledgeable, funny and approachable taking us on a journey through all the temples we visited. The optional stop for lunch was good the restaurant having river views and the food being excellent.

Boat is slow moving and, at least on the day we went, pitches around some. A few people were sea sick. The breakfast and lunch were delicious. The sea kayak adventure was amazing. The snorkeling was just okay, as the bay where we snorkled was not super clear. The crew was friendly and helpful. The hike at Ang thong was not all the way to the summit as there wasn’t time allowed for that, but the views were still wonderful. Was a highlight of our time in koh samui.

This a must do experience. Not only did the tour guide Kevin & Mr Ung provide a really good insight to the Thai history during WW2, Erawan Falls was amazing. I should note that the falls can be done by anyone, however if you want to go up to the top, then you need to be fit as there are a lot of step, some that are slightly higher than others. You also need to pay to bring plastic bottles in (from level 2), though you do get your money back when you go back down. It's also good to pack light, as they do have small lockers to hire for a fee (cash only). For the falls, you can go up as far as you can & it's worth hiring a life jacket for 20 baht to swim. A heads up also that there are small to large Mahseer fish that will come nibbling at your feet (mainly to eat the dead skin). It can be overwhelming at first, however once you get used to it, you can swim out and even climb on the rocks/get some really good photos. The only other thing to note - make sure those travelling with you know what the pick up & departure times are, as it is a long drive back to Bangkok and 2x we had to wait for 1 person to both return from the falls and later decide to get a coffee, when we were told strictly the last stop before returning was a toilet only break.

This was a great experience! Loved the early start so we had a lot of the islands with less people. This is a group tour, so seating was a little tight, but otherwise the boat was comfortable. Dean was a great guide. We received breakfast, snacks, waters and sodas, buffet style lunch, snorkeling gear, etc. So everything really is taken care of for you, which was wonderful. Obviously you can also book private tours but those are more expensive, so if you're looking for an affordable option that's not quite as busy, this is a great alternative. And we saw so many beautiful islands!! Loved it

Everything was comfortable and enjoyable. The guides were very nice and would explain the route clearly also telling us little stories. We were lucky with the sea conditions and they led us intorno wonderful snorkiling. The food was great and we had a lot of fun.
