Traveler reviews
A must do!
The island was amazingly beautiful. The tour well organized although i must say the journey via the speed boat was my least favoured part as we did the slow boat for another excursion and which was fabulous.
up to weather
pretty fun. but when we reached at pig island, it became windy so we couldn't do anything like snorkeling or sea kayaking. after the island the boat was quite bumping. still our kids enjoyed it. it was like a roller coaster for them. the last stop was the most fun for us. we jumped into the sea from the top of boat many times.
A deportation
We did this tour earlier today. A deportation....the meeting point is at a dock with hundreds of people who are then diverted to boats of 50-60 people. Over an hour’s journey to snorkel in koh tao (no big deal) and terrible lunch stop. Departure to the second island and two hours stop at the crowded beach without shade. A terrible experience. Cost 1.500 bath per person. Tip...evaluate smaller tours for number of people but definitely better. Don't do it!!!!
Horror trip speedboat snorkeling
Today we made a trip by speedboat to Koh Tao and Koh Nang Yuan. A light breakfast was given at the peer, a banana, some fried balls and white bread. Before boarding we needed to fill in a form that we had no diseases... The weather was very windy and rainy, and the speedboat was a toy for the waves. It was jumping up and down, left and right. The sea water was coming through the roof and we got totally wet. It felt horrible, the boat was full of vomiting and loudly screaming Chinese or Asian people. The crew was prepared for this, with an ‘anti-vomit’ massage on board and many garbagebags to vomit in; we think it happens a lot. After snorkeling we arrived at Koh Tao, and we decided not to go further with this trip on the speedboat. We booked a ticket at the Ferry, back to Koh Samui. Besides this bad experience, the crew was kind, nice, and very helpful to the sick people.
Long Day
The snorkeling was probably one of the best I've ever seen in my life (and I've been snorkeling a lot..); however, it was a very long day and the ride to get to and from Koh Tao was 1.5 hours (that's 3 hours of traveling total). This wouldn't have been too bad because I like boats, but the boat we were on was very small and we were seated like a school bus (2 by 2). There was no room to move, dry off or apply sunscreen. It felt very cramped. In addition, the amount of time we spent on the "private island" was way too long. The sun is extremely strong and hot - we were on the beach for two hours and it felt like an hour too long. I would suggest a half day tour instead. (Also, the "private island" was PACKED).
