As my couldn’t swim, one of the crew (Rami) swam up to her with a ring and pulled her around the snorkelling areas so that she was able to see things. This helped us both see 3 Sea Turtles, clown fish, a squid and many other wonderful marine life! So many thank to Rami for doing this as we both agreed we would have not likely seen such without his help!! One thing to improve was the amount of direct sun the back of the boat received. Heading to Similan and back to the pier, the sun was always behind us and if unfortunate to be sat at the back, you were going to burn up. The crew were amazing though and the lunches were delicious. Couldn’t fault their support and care!

Good organization, they serve tasty breakfast and afternoon snack at the pier. Our guide Monica and the rest of the crew were really funny and kind. The islands are extremely busy, and we always left as one of the first boats so we never got to experience the empty beach like other tours could, maybe they could rotate the boats more. The food on the island was really bad but expected.

A great destination with a great team! It took us a total of 4 hours to get to the islands and another 4 hours to return but it is so worth it! Amazing scenery, turquoise waters, and very good food all day long. Both the snorkeling points and the beaches were breathtaking. The tour was well organized in every sense. Highly recommend!

Incredible experience, impeccable organization and staff of unique kindness and friendliness! Highly recommended

Everything was organised perfectly. I highly recommend.
