What are people saying about Koh Samui

Wonderful Tour, Outstanding Guide, and Great Memories
We had a fantastic day exploring Koh Samui with this tour. Although there hadn’t been enough rainfall for Na Muang Waterfall to be flowing, the team quickly adapted the itinerary and took us to an elephant sanctuary instead. It turned out to be a wonderful experience and showed their commitment to making sure guests still had a memorable day.
Our guide, Jom, was outstanding. He was exceptionally polite, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about Koh Samui’s history, culture, religion, and nature throughout the trip. He answered every question with patience and made everyone feel welcome.
The Jeep ride through the mountains offered breathtaking viewpoints, the visits to the temples and the Magic Garden were fascinating, and the traditional Thai lunch was delicious with beautiful scenery.
Despite the change in plans, the day exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for a fun, authentic, and well-organized way to discover Koh Samui, I highly recommend this tour—and if you’re lucky enough to have Jom as your guide, you’re in for an even better experience. Thank you for a memorable day!

Ellies in nature
This is an experience that will stay with us for a while, it was fantastic to interact with the elephants in the natural habitat.
Everyone in our group had a smile on their face the whole time.
It was wonderful to know the elephants were not pushed to "perform", you took them as you found them, much like human interactions.
If you want to see elephants, abhor the elephant rides etc, want a hands on experience, I highly recommend this tour.

Tour around the island
Great tour, our tour guide was lovely and very informative, happy to help and offered to take photos for us on every stop. Cold drinks supplied was a benefit and the stop to try coconut ice cream was delicious. Very friendly guide and driver. I wouldn’t recommend to swim at the waterfall on the last trip, it was busy and we only had 30 minutes before getting back on the bus, so I would recommend trying some of the yummy food stalls there, buy souvenirs etc. we were happy that the tour was finished mid afternoon and were back at our hotel mid afternoon.

Great Speedboat to Ang Thong
We had a fantastic time on this tour! The snorkeling spot was amazing. The waters were a bit market when first getting out of the boat, which makes sense because we docked with two other boats. Afterwards, near the cliffs the coral and sea life came alive! The hike on the main island was no joke, but so worth it! The monkeys were a sight, as well as the crystal clear water. We ran into a bit of weather when heading to lunch, but the crew handled it so well. We did eat lunch with a couple other tours, so the line to get food was long (just wanted to note that). We chose not to kayak due to it raining some, and just enjoyed the second island. The last stop was the emrald lake, which was cool to see. You can’t get in the water and the hike up the stairs was scary, but worth it! Coming back was rough but nothing too bad. I don’t think the boat was too packed. My companion and I chose to sit at the front, which was awesome because you had views and fresh air. Inside looked more cramped but manageable. The crew was also phenomenal!! Highly suggest booking this to see Ang Thong.

Awesome short tour of Samui island with our driver Laem
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!

Highly recommend. Perfect as a solo traveler
An incredible tour with an incredible guide!
I was traveling solo and this tour was 100% the right choice. I felt safe and well-cared for.
My dietary requirements of being a vegetarian were met with ease. When I am back in Koh Samui I will book another tour with this operator.
Thank you for the wonderful day. 🙏

This ATV tour was a great...
This ATV tour was a great experience from start to finish. Pickup and organisation were smooth with Rick being very responsive to our questions beforehand. Our guide was very patient throughout and took the time to make sure everyone felt comfortable and confident before and during the ride. The route was fun with a good mix of terrain and scenery. Overall, it was well run and an enjoyable activity that we would happily recommend.

Just right
Very well guided tour hitting several must see spots in Koh Samui. Our guide Yai and driver Mr. Whit did an excellent job. I appreciated that they provided water and cold towels throughout the trip as it was very hot. The timing was good, not too long and not too short.

A cannot miss tour in Koh Samui
The team at 100 Degrees took the best care of us. Absolutely what you want when you’re on a holiday and don’t want to think about anything. Loved their attention to detail, reminding you to reapply sunscreen, topping up water, and the VIP treatment. Lunch was delicious, they really care for their clients. Loved that we were taken to places that weren’t so crowded, seeing the other bigger boats go by and seeing how people were treated on them made me really value my choice of tour. Absolutely worth every cent, team was incredible.

Good Shore Excursion From Port
Personal driver for the day in good quality air conditioned vehicle. Managed our time and visits well mindful we were on cruise ship so - shore excursion. Managed to see all we wanted (even though we were later than expected - due to sea tender). Bottled water provided. Driver was very good. Would recommend as great value for money.

Great daytrip from Samui
Good tour as described - though the order of the itinerary and specific snorkel sites will depend on the weather/wind and swell direction to optimise the experience. Can be rough on the way back in the speedboat but our trip was comfortable with calm seas. Good way to see these places from Samui if you dont have time to stay on Koh Tao itself. Very grateful they let me borrow the one pair of fins they had!

Outstanding!
We had an absolutely amazing time! The boat rides were not as bad as expected, the islands were stunning and snorkelling was magnificent. The lunch on Koh Tao was SO delicious!! We couldn’t believe how good ! The entire experience was wonderful and probably our best day visiting Thailand !
Our boat guides were friendly and professional! Would highly recommend!!
