Traveler reviews
Sunset cruise at Easter time
We celebrated Easter sunset on a very enjoyable dinner cruise with Elza and crew. Elza did a great job facilitating the experience and ensuring all the guests were comfortable, aware of all the recreational opportunities, and well fed! This included the safety briefings at the outset, the welcome drinks, hors d'oeuvres, opportunity for swimming and fishing off the decks, seafood dinner buffet and dessert, and plenty of time to enjoy the fresh sea air and sunset. Pickup and transport from the hotel was seamless and smooth. On the boat, seat and table locations are in the sun or shade so pick your spot accordingly, and roam the decks at leisure.
Smooth sailing
Beautiful excursion that I highly recommend. the boat is large , spacious , we were 30 participants, quite decent considering the size of the boat , the crew is very nice , the food simple but good and fresh , what a wonderful day to sail very gently to reach Ang Thong

Money grabbers
It was a rainy day in Koh Samui today and is the last day of our holiday. We did not want to sit on a boat for three hours in the rain just to spend a couple of hours there, to then spend another 3 hours coming back to Koh Samui. We tried to explain this to the operator and asked for a refund (we showed proof that it’s our last day with a screenshot of our return flight to Bangkok as well) and the operator refused saying rain is no reason to cancel. Very disappointing. I understand this is how they make a living but we cannot help the weather and it’s disappointing that they could not understand where we were coming from. I know of other tour operators that offer a cancellation & refund/reschedule for poor weather conditions so my advice would be to book with them. The operator then continued to WhatsApp me throughout the day to try and show how “good” the tour was. The weather is still grey and rainy in the videos they sent me so I’m glad we decided to cancel. Attaching screenshots and videos of the conversation & weather conditions from the day.
Wonderful excursion
The day on the Red Baron sailing ship was definitely a highlight of my holiday in Thailand. Especially for my girlfriend , who is disabled and needs help getting on and off the boat I would like to thank the entire crew for the care and care. The inflatable boat trip to the dreamy island was worth the trip alone. Ella , our tourgide makes this day perfect for us. Their wit and charm are unique. To be able to experience the sunset from the ship, simply fantastic. Thanks to everyone . Anja and Eve
