“It takes an hour and a half to reach the first island. The ride is hot and windows are too high to look out. BUT this was the only draw back of this tour. They offer snacks, drinks and even ice cream on the boat. The water at both beaches is warRead more”

“we spent way too much time waiting. picked up at 7:30 yo to a 1/2 hour to pier. waiting long time as they brought more guests. very uncomfortable and squished on a boat advertised as a luxury catamaran”
A 9-hour Similan Islands day trip from Khao Lak with speedboat rides, sailboat-rock views, and two snorkeling stops plus Thai lunch.
“Activities were good but we didn’t see much marine life and transportation took up a lot of the day. I would cut short the breakfast/afternoon tea hour at the pier and put that towards spending more time on the islands. Otherwise, guides and overall day was great - more family friendly than adventure.”

“De stranden waren prachtig met echt helder water! De reis er naar toe was alleen vervelend, lange reistijd met taxi, je komt eerst in een schuur terecht met ongeveer 200/300 man waar je je meld, dan pik je je strandtas op en kan je ontbijten (eten was redelijk) Daarna ga je met je groep (40man) naar je boot en vaar je eerst 130 minuten voor je er bent. Stranden zijn waanzinnig, snorkelen viel me tegen (weinig vis) De lunch op het eiland was redelijk. Terugkomend in de schuur kon je eerst douchen en ‘dineren’ (erg matig eten) voor je met de taxi terug ging. Helaas hadden we last van het…”

“È stata una bella giornata e siamo riusciti a vedere una tartaruga marina bella grande che ha nuotato con noi! È stato bellissimo. Una delle guide ha anche fatto un video con la gopro e lo ha inviato a tutti i partecipanti. In due spot abbiamo fatto snorkeling (fondali spettacolari), in uno abbiamo pranzato e in un altro siamo scesi per stare sia in spiaggia a fare il bagno che per salire sul punto panoramico sopra tutti quei sassi scenici famosi delle Similan. Per quanto riguarda il cibo ci sono state offerte una colazione e una cena a un buffet a terra, non sul catamarano, piuttosto ricche!”
