Yes I rate it

Snorking at koh nang yaun possibly the best i have ever done. Boat fast. Probably 6 too many passengers for comfort. About 26 people would be perfect. Need to get a step to get out of boat and a deeper ladder to get out of water into boat. Certainly difficult for older and larger people. Lunch was good. Water to drink on boat was plentiful. No safety instructions at all in boat or for snorkling, but hey we are in Thailand!

No Fins!

I nearly gave this to tour only 1 star but the employees worked so hard I increased it to 3. I have they're not many snorkeling tours through the caribbean, and all over the world, and never seen a tour operater who doesn't offer fins to swim with. Very disappointed. If you are expecting snorkle fins, good luck, there were only two pairs on the boat and the crew used them even after I asked. Not Recommended

Waste of Money

We spent 5 days snorkeling in Thailand. This trip was BY FAR the worst of the 5. I read fine print to make sure this trip maximized the snorkel time. The fact that I have time to write this review while still on the tour should be a sign. The morning snorkel for 45 minutes was pretty decent. But it was one spot, not 3 as listed in the "what to expect" section. Koh Tao is reportedly one of the best spots in Thailand and we got 1/3 of what we were told. Lunch was fine. Then we went to the small island and the snorkeling was virtually non-existant. There was once a coral bed that has been destroyed. The time we had here was 3x what we had at the one morning stop. Not worth it! BTW the guide just stopped by. He said that the tour company is different than the one listed in my booking. He is listed as Funny Day. What's up with that, Trip Advisor!?

Great company , i recommand

Trip was amazing, there was a problem with the booking but they upgraded us to a better tour for free. Sure there was a mistake at first, but the company made sure we where happy and we had vip treatment. Food was good.
