    Went from hotel in Koh Lak which was handy, speedboat great, v fast and bumpy, they give out sick bags and tablets at the beginning and you wear a life jacket all the time on the boat. Lots of good snorkelling and nice stop on first island-could have stayed there all day. Second beach stop got packed lunch which was cold fried chicken, rice, fish stir fry and prawns, the fruit was nice though! Only a limited area to swim in and was like people soup, too hot to climb to sail rock but some people did and said was lovely view. Nice ice creams and fruit on board. Food at end of day biggest disappointment- brochure said traditional Thai meal. It was literally a drumstick with rice in a plastic container and a few jelly sweets. We complained and only got 5% off the overal price! Nice day but good not up to much x

    Absolute value for money! Amazing tour experience Staff very friendly and helpful Very well organised tour Pick up was offered which was great but it was a long drive and the driver was speeding, nevertheless I was able to sleep during the drive. The Wow Andaman private pier is amazing - lovely buffet breakfast provided, there are toilets and showers ( not the greatest but still available) The beaches we visited were amazing and the snorkeling spots were great. We had enough time to enjoy these spots. Puu was our guide and he was great. The prepacked lunch provided on the island was great. Between each activity you are offered cold beverages, snacks and ice-cream on-board. There is a toilet on the boat, which is amazing as the trip out is about 90mins. When you get back to the pier they have a buffet prepared which was very good. The only negative I suppose is that the boat is a bit cramped with everyone seated on either side facing each other so you can't really take in the scenery. Overall it was an amazing experience, well worth the cost. I would definitely book with WOW Andaman again.

    Excellent adventure. The islands are pristine and less crowded than Phi Phi. The water was crystal clear, the coral is healthy, and the fish abundant. Some of the islands are better than others. Wow Andaman made the day Supreme. Excellent service. A must-do tour for the snorkelers in the group. The boat trip is long, but comfortable enough.

    Great hard working, fun and knowledgeable staff. We went to several beautiful beaches and snorkeled three times during the trip. WOW serves breakfast, lunch and a light dinner after the cruise. They provide transportation to and from your hotel. Amazing organization. Well worth the money and the trek. It was the highlight of our trip to Phuket along with the prior day to Phi Phi with the WOW group.

    This excursion is a must do!!! These islands (Similian islands) are some of the prettiest islands we have ever been to, including the most beautiful clear blueish green water we have ever seen!! Also the snorkeling is out of this world, with many types of fish and tons of different colored coral and even jellyfish!! The food was fantastic and the tour guides phenomenal. We would do this tour again in a heartbeat!!! Jodi H
