“Our Guide (Apple) met us in our Hotel Lobby at the agreed time. We discussed and personalised our day. It was a fantastic day - we travelled by foot, ferry, metro and tuk tuk. Saw all of the sights we wanted to see. Apple also scheduled lunch at a local restaurant. I love crunching a city tour into 6-8 hrs with a local guide. Highly recommend!”

“This is arguably the best island hopping trip in western Thailand. The crew was highly experienced, super friendly and expert navigators. The tour pacing is ideal; you get to see as much as you can without feeling rushed. Unn and Marc really made sure everyone enjoyed the trip; both were super knowledgeable and friendly. We had a specific dietary restriction and both were incredibly sensitive and careful with the lunch option to cater to our restrictions. Not only were we happy, but we felt incredibly grateful to the way we were hosted by the company. It is always a good tour when you no longer look at Tripadvisory or Viator…”

The Train Market was fun as was the floating market. The temples were fabulous and Angie told us all about them and answered any questions. My only comment would be that 1 small bottle of water is not enough for 12 hours in the heat.”

“Boat: The boat was comfortable and we had enough space. It was big enough and the sea was calm for us so it was a smooth ride. Staff: The guides and assistants were all nice and helpful. There were about 50 guests and it felt like an adequate number of staff. Activities: The conditions weren’t ideal for snorkeling but that’s of course not the company’s fault. The kayaking, however, was lovely. There was an opportunity to kayak a second time as well. A highlight for me was climbing to the viewpoint on Wua Ta Lap Island. This is no joke of a hike as it’s 500 meters up steep uneven…”
