Great if you are short on time; If not, rent a scooter and explore the island on your time

Carlos_S, Aug 2025
I felt rush in each sight, with only 10 to 15 to explore and see; the guide was knowledgeable, I think, cause it was a bit hard to understand his English.

No show

I was not picked up and I did not get my refund. I contacted the agent, no response. I also emailed them, I waited for over an hour but no show.

It rained most of our...

Mariah_F, Jan 2025
It rained most of our time in Koh Samui so we didn’t get to adventure out throughout the week and see the sites. Our last day in Koh Samui the weather was clear and we decided to do this tour so we could get more of a glimpse at Koh Samui. It was at the perfect pace and we got to see a lot in a few hours. Our tour guide was knowledgeable. Seeing Wat Plai Laem and the Kin Ta and Kin Yai Rocks were our favorite things. Definitely recommend this tour if you have limited time in the area and want to pack a lot of sites into a short time.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Ein sehr gut organisiertes Erlebnis, bei dem man einen guten Eindruck von der Insel erhält. Dank der ruhigen und souveränen Fahrweise unseres Chauffeurs, als auch der persönlichen Schilderungen der Reiseleiterin, genossen wir ein einzigartiges Erlebnis. Ein unbedingt wertvoller Tip, den man sich nicht entgehen lassen sollte.
