Absolutely stunning views. Comfortable boat and tasty food. The snorkelling was OK at best but the kayaking was a fun add on.

We had a little hiccup with drivers picking us up from our hotel but Viatour sorted everything out an we were able to take this day trip the following day. Their customer service was excellent and they sorted everything out for us. As for Ang Thong National Marine Park, this is a must for anyone visiting Koh Samui! It’s the most beautiful place on earth: the monkey were so beautiful and the kayaking was really worth doing. We loved our time here and will definitely return!

Wir habe die Tour auf Empfehlung unseres Hotel gebucht, da lt. Hotel es der beste und zuverlässigste Anbieter ist. Organisation und Ablauf war auch sehr komfortabel und unkompliziert. Frühstück sehr mager und Lunch war gut Nun zum eigentlichen Thema: Wir hatten im Vorfeld bzgl. einer Schorcheltour angefragt. Auch hier wurde uns besagt Tour von Highsea empfohlen und der Whatsapp Kontakt teilte uns mit es könnten Wale und manchmal auch Mantarochen gesehen werden. Was bekamen wir bei Ankunft. Einen abgegrenzten komplett trüben Strandabschnitt in dem man Schnorcheln MUSS. Absolut nichts zusehen und das Wasser ist maximal 1m tief, sodass man permanent aufpassen muss nicht an irgendeinem Stein hängen zu bleiben. Auch auf die Frage, ob man mit einem longtail boot noch etwas rausfahren darf auch gegen Bezahlung wurde nur mit folgender Ausrede geantwortet „das geht nicht da auch andere Boote in den Gewässern unterwegs sind“ (Weit und breit keine anderen Boote zu sehen) An und abreise sind jetzt über Stunden auf dem Boot (sagt dir leider im Vorfeld auch niemand) und auch der allgemeine Ablaufplan wird immer erst davor verkündet. Grundsätzlich ist die Tour ein schöner Ausflug, wenn an den Nationalpark bzw. Die 2 angesteuerten View Points ansehen möchten, aber mit einer Schorcheltour hat das absolut nichts zu tun, dass sollte berücksichtigt werden. Nach Rücksprache mit einigen Passagieren ist Ko tao hier auch viel bessere Wahl für schnorcheln.
