★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 351 reviews · 9 hours · from $83

Cruise from Phuket to the Similan Islands with guides such as Nancy, Siri, Ole, and their crews. You’ll snorkel at several sites, swim from white-sand beaches, enjoy breakfast, lunch, snacks, and a light dinner, and return by speedboat the same day.

“We loved the similan islands. The beaches were stunning, the snorkelling was amazing, we even saw a turtle! Our guide (called Tequilla) was brilliant - so full of energy and fun. Just be aware you spend a lot of the day in transport. The bus journey was fine, but was 2.5 hours each way. The speedboat was over an hour and pretty uncomfortable as it was cramped. But transport is necessary to get to the beautiful islands so worth it.”

“Romeo was our guide, very energetic and fun, but he talked so fast and his English wasn’t great to begin with. We were all confused as to what was happening most of the time. There little to no explanation about anything, where we were going, what we needed to take, what kind of shoes to bring on each stop.. he was just all over the place. I ’ve been on excursions in the past and this was the first one where they don’t offer fruit or snacks. Plenty of water though. so there’s that. The food was average and “breakfast” was cookies. I do have to say the the spot…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 100 reviews · from $64

Spend about eight hours exploring Angthong Marine Park from Koh Samui by speedboat. Mr. Tu’s crew provides hotel transfers, breakfast, lunch, snorkeling gear, kayaks, water, and English or Chinese guidance. Expect a bumpy boat ride, busy popular stops, sea caves, Emerald Lake views, and a steep final climb.

“Le parc d'Angthong est très beau, mais l'excursion telle qu'elle est organisée est relativement décevante. Les hors-bords ne permettent pas de profiter du paysage à l'aller et au retour (1h dans chaque sens), on ne profite que du bruit des moteurs. Tous les bateaux passent par les mêmes endroits, et souvent de manière synchronisée, on se retrouve donc à 300 à faire du snorkelling pendant 30 bonnes minutes. Pour le kayak, on se retrouve à faire des ronds dans l'eau devant la plage car il est interdit de s'aventurer trop loin. Les promenades ne sont pas désagréables, mais pas adaptées aux claquettes qu'on nous conseille de prévoir pour l'excursion (une…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 77 reviews · from $68

Spend a full day sailing from Koh Samui to Angthong Marine Park. You will snorkel at Koh Wao, hike to Emerald Lake, kayak around Koh Sam Sao, and climb Wua Talap for wide sea views. Hotel transfers, food, equipment, and an English-speaking guide are included, but expect a busy schedule.

“Very touristic, guide didn't speak good English and explained almost nothing. The Kayak was ridiculous (not even 1.5 km), basically just meant to say "done". Same for the hikes, the guide says the most strenuous one is 500 mt D+ but my Garmin is not of the same opinion... all in all, very rushed, very touristic, the weather was awful and we went anyway. Simply put, a good way to ruin a natural paradise.”

You will visit Koh Mae Ko and see the famous green lagoon, with hotel pickup, equipment, drinks, and a guide included. Expect a full, active day with some waiting and a bumpy ride.

“We did this tour at the beginning of our time in Ko Samui... The sights and view points during the trip were beautiful and definitely worth seeing. The organisation to begin with at the harbour could have been better, there was a lot of waiting about, especially in the heat. The snorkelling part of the trip, alongside the kayaking was particularly enjoyable, however we were left mostly to our own devices about where to go and what to do. Lunch wasn't well organised at all - there was about 5 boats worth of people trying to cue for food, which ended in a disaster especially after we were told that…”
