Traveler reviews
Amazing
Very well oraganized tour The beaches and snorkelling spot was unreal must visit if you are arround
First snorkeling tour
Very well organized. Everything worked smoothly. Great snorkeling spots. Overall 5/5, totally worth the money.
Good Island but rushed
Long transfer to the boat. Rushed snorkeling and island visits. Should reduce to one snorkeling spot and one island visit. Coral around the islands is dying.
Mixed feeling with some pros and lot of cons
Mixed feelings for this trip Pros. Actually a very fast catamaran boat. Good food at all times, even semi-dinner before last dispersal. Free non-alcoholic beverages and fresh fruits all day. At least one beach and one snorkelling site was outstanding. Staff was friendly and helpful and life-guards were very pro-active. Cons. Hardly any moving or changing space on the boat. Despite almost flat sea with moderate wind, the Catamaran was jumping like crazy over water. It would be nightmarish on even a slightly moving sea. All snorkelling or beach sites were to crowded. Except one beach and one snorkelling site, rest were either dead corals or beaches full of sharp particles and dangerous exposed corals. Overall, had this been less crowded and gone to just the 2 good sites mentioned above, it would have still been worth it. I will not use it again.
This was the last of my...
This was the last of my day trips, so it was a disappointment. Recommendations: go on this tour 1st b4 Phi Phi and James Bond. Also get on your guide about seeing sea turtles. Pros: Islands are gorgeous. You get to swim and snorkel in a cove on one of the islands. Cons: food is awful (would rather they have options to purchase). Marina is over an hour from Patong and islands are over an hour from Marina. Guide botched the location of sea turtles and sent us in the opposite direction of where they were.
