Great day, great guides

We had a great day, great organization, pick up, check in, breakfast, tour itself worked out everything well, super nice guides who try to do everything for the Touries, in the off-season we were boat in the best weather with 24 people manned, so everyone had enough space and the drive of 1:20 hours also passed quite quickly, we saw a giant sea turtle and a baby shark as a highlight, the 3. Stop has a beautiful vantage point, one day after the tour we received a link via WhatsApp where you could download photos of the tour for free, so we now have underwater photos of us and the turtle, absolutely top

I’m not up to the places they show

The places are very nice, but too little time to visit them and too many people on the boat without ability to move. Rude and unprofessional staff, more intent on smoking marijuana than anything else. The islands and the reef are to be seen, but not with this mode. Not up to scratch

It’s ok, but it’s a long way and I’m not sure it’s worth it.

I was a little disappointed by this trip - whilst all went to plan with no hitches, there isn’t much to get excited about other than the beauty of Koh Nangyuan (if you can look past the tourists swarming all over it!) and our guides weren’t particularly charismatic and didn’t have much interest in answering any queries at all. Snorkelling was very average, lunch was ok but not great and the boat trip there and back takes a long time and there was a very little room as our boat was jam packed. You are below deck so can’t see much so the hour and a half journey goes by very slowly! If you know what to expect and are happy with the setup then it’s a decent day, but don’t go just for the snorkelling ……. you’ll be disappointed.

Stay away from this scam.

This tour is a scam. They advertise more than 4 stops for snorkeling at different spots on the itinerary, but in reality we stopped just in one spot and stayed there for a short while. The snorkeling equipment provided was old, the masks were very scratched and the glass was in such a bad condition that it was hard to see anything. The snorkeling equipment was also not sterile, we did other tours in Thailand in which the mouth piece for the snorkel was provided sealed in a bag to prove that it was clean and sterile, but this company clearly did not care and provided just old, dirty and malfunctioning equipment.
