Great way to see all 5...

Kerry_L, Feb 2026
Great way to see all 5 islands. Snorkelling stops were amazing, staff were very vibrant and fun. Food was also delicious!

Great team and great experience

Brendan_G, Dec 2024
Great experience and the team was supportive and friendly. Got to see turtles up close and many types of fish. Also got to explore some of the beaches and a great view.

Good but some details to improve

Ele_A, Sep 2024
The tour is for sure good but the locations are influenced by the weather, in our case we didn’t visit Mango Bay but another bay. The three stars are because of the organisation. We chose the ‘late rise’ option (11 am) with pick up time at 10:30 but they anticipated it at 10 am the same morning without any specific reason. Anyway the team was super lovely and they helped us a lot during the whole tour.

It was very Nice trip and...

Kinga_S, Apr 2023
It was very Nice trip and we saw a lot of see animals. Actually we run with 2 ferry together but still it wasnt a lot of people on it. The guide was super Nice and wanted to show everyone the animal Which was super Nice!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Dear Kinga_S Thanks for your short review and comments. Sometimes we use 2 boats anchored at the same spots but always controlling the amount of people.

Good experience but would book elsewhere

Erin_K, Mar 2023
Three stars because I can’t dispute that I thoroughly enjoyed the snorkelling, we didn’t see much - one turtle, a couple beautiful fish and coral. The first stop at Koh Nangyuan which you have to pay 250 baht to enter was by far the best part where we saw the most fish and after that it got a little disappointing. However I understand what you see on the day can’t be certified so that’s okay. My reason for the three stars is as much as I would recommend snorkelling tours i wouldn’t recommend booking through this tour company. They forgot to pick me up from my accommodation and after an hour I was collected and taken to the boat where everyone was waiting. There was a lovely guy working on the boat but he did not speak English the the other staff weren’t particularly friendly.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear Erin_K Thanks for your review and sorry for picking you up late on that day. We will try to improve and train our staff even more.

Good times

Mirand_C, Mar 2023
Great tour with informative staff. Delicious lunch! Rough seas were tough on some people, I would listen to guide and wear life jackets if you feel!

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear Mirand_C Thanks for your review, and on some days the sea conditions can be quite unpleasant with strong current and big waves.

The guides are so nice...

Maria_L, Jan 2023
The guides are so nice and helpful. Food was ok. It was a very nice day. I hardly recommend this tour

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Dear Maria_L Thanks for the short but important review, we are on the right way and try to improve day by day.

Good to explore Koh tao island

YIJU_L, Aug 2022
In general everything is okay, but this not like on the website said maximum 15 people, the group are around 50 people on the boat, very crowded. But the staff are super friendly and helpful. And they provide the water and coffee fruit and of course the easy lunch

Response from Host, Aug 2022

Dear YIJU_L Thanks for writing us a feedback. The number 15 on Tripadvisor indicates the maximum number of people you can add to one booking. On the boat there can be more people, but we can assure that our guests never feel crowded - there is plenty of space.

Snorkeling in the clear...

Orsolya_T, Jun 2022
Snorkeling in the clear water like in an aquarium. The breathtaking view frim the viewpoint on Nang Yuan island. Our guide climbed with us to take great foto’s of us

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Dear Orsolya_T Thanks for your review. We are more than happy that you enjoyed the trip on the small paradise island of Nangyuan.

L’excursion était géniale ! Le personnel est très gentil, nous étions un petit groupe donc c’était agréable. Le bateau, tout neuf, était très confortable. Le déjeuner était bon. Nous recommandons fortement cette agence !

Nice experience

csns20, Feb 2023
Schöne Tour, nette Guides, Verpflegung gut und ausreichend (Tee, Kaffee, Kekse, etc.) Haben z.B. die Mangobay nicht angefahren wegen des Wetters, aber dafür eine andere Bucht, die mir dann sogar am besten gefallen hat.

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Dear csns20 Thanks for sharing your experience. The itinerary is adapted to the weather and sea conditions.

Perfekter Tag rund um Koh Tao!

Helmuth_W, Feb 2023
Wir hatten ruhige See, viel Sonne und somit optimale Bedingungen zum Schnorcheln. Japanis garden war beeindruckend und in Shark bay konnten wir mit 4 Schildkröten schwimmen. Alles in allem, ein super Tag, gute Verpflegung und crew!

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Dear Helmuth_W Thanks for your short review, and we are happy that you could spot sea turtles at Shark Bay.

Magique

Pauline_L, Jan 2023
Incroyable, magique expérience, j’ai vue un bébé requin, pleins de magnifiques poissons et 2 tortues 🐢 personnel très gentil je recommence vraiment

Response from Host, Jan 2023

Dear Pauline_L Thanks for taking time to write a review, we are happy that you enjoyed the trip and also could spot some turtles and colourful fish.

Superbe excursion !

Maxence_B, Dec 2022
Superbe excursion, la plus belle que nous ayons pu faire pendant notre séjour. Les paysages sont à couper le souffle, le snorkeling avec les poissons et les tortues était super, sans oublier le staff qui était incroyable, fun et serviable. Pour couronner le tout, nous étions en petit groupe sur le bateau, ce qui renforce l’immersion, en bref, au top !

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Dear Maxence_B Thanks for booking our tour around Koh Tao and to Koh Nangyuan, we are delighted that you enjoyed the trip wit just a few other travellers on that day.

Inoubliable

Stphanie_M, Dec 2022
La plus belle excursion que j’ai faite en Thaïlande. J’ai vu des poissons de toutes les couleurs magnifiques, une énorme tortue de mer, des baby sharks. L’équipe vraiment super. A la fois professionnel et sympa

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Dear Ian_N Thanks for joining our tour around Koh Tao. We are happy that eneverythign went smooth and that you enjoyed the trip aboard the Sangthong Boat.

Super Preis/Leistung

Michelle_M, Dec 2022
Wir wurden pünktlich von unserer Unterkunft abgeholt. Nachdem jeder seine Schnorchelausrüstung erhielt, ging’s aufs Schiff. Dort erwarten euch Kekse, Früchte, Kaffee, Tee und Kühles Wasser. Es gibt mehrere Stops zum Schnorcheln. Währenddessen umrundet man mit dem Schiff die Insel Koh Tao. Die Guides waren dabei super freundlich, die Unterwasserfotos, werden euch im Nachgang kostenlos zugesendet. Alles in allem ein gelungener Tag, für einen doch sehr günstigen Preis!

Response from Host, Dec 2022

Dear Michelle_M Thanks for your great review. We are super delighted that you fully enjoyed our service.

Amazing experience !!

Emy_R, May 2022
Journée plus que fabuleuse ! Très bonne organisation, le staff d’Oxygen Tours est adorable. Nous avons pu nager à côté de tortues dans la Shark bay… Incroyable !! Je recommande a 100% cette journée
