The boat wasn't in a rush, which suited us perfectly. We had enough time to enjoy the views and the islands. It got a little warm on the upper deck during midday, so bringing a hat is a good idea.
The big boat was comfortable and gave everyone enough space to relax. The snorkeling stop was nice, although visibility depends on the weather. I'd choose this trip again for the scenery alone.
The big boat had plenty of space to sit back and enjoy the views. I liked the slower pace compared with a speedboat trip, and Angthong Marine Park was every bit as beautiful as I'd hoped.
Great staff, well organised, felt very safe and well looked after. Highly recommend
The no frills trip to Angthong National Marine Park was bags of fun. They really looked after us and safety and information is a high priority for them. Super friendly staff always ready to help. Tasty chicken stew lunch with watermelon for lunch. The views and sights are spectacular. Well worth it. The big boat filled up quickly. The trip routine is well rehearsed so at times you feel a little like on a production line but is best with so many people. Expect to get wet at sea. Is hot and humid so you will sweat. The snorkelling is fun. The water is warm but visibility is very poor. Don’t get too close to the urchins and corals and sharp stones sticking out the sea floor.

Everything went smoothly. Small breakfast and lunch. Had good weather and the ride was very quiet. The climb was very exhausting. Please think carefully if you're going up there. The day after is painful 😂

Great trip. We paddled by canoe to the first island, which is highly recommended. Could then choose whether we wanted to swim, snorkel or hike. We opted for the steep ascent and descent via stairs to lagoon and back. On the second approached island we decided to go for a strenuous steep hike, partly for climbing, to hell. Was a great day with breathtaking scenery.
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We’re delighted to hear that you had such a great excursion and enjoyed paddling the canoe to the first island. It’s lovely to know that you made the most of the different activity options, from hiking to the lagoon to the adventurous walk to the cave. The landscapes in the area are truly breathtaking, and we’re very happy that you were able to experience and enjoy them. Thank you again for sharing your experience. We hope to welcome you back for another memorable adventure in the future. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
The tour was well organized, the hotel pick-up very convenient. We stopped on two islands and I liked the freedom we had on each island, but it would be nice to stay longer on Koh Wua Talap, to allow people to visit both the cave and the view point. The staff were kind and helpful as the floating piers proved to be very challenging in the rough sea. Motion sickness pills were provided on board. Unfortunately I relied on the breakfast served on the boat, based on the description, and that was a mistake. It was only a banana and a very sweet baking powder tasting muffin. Have a proper breakfast before boarding. Otherwise, highly recommended.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful and balanced review. We’re delighted to hear that you found the tour well organized and appreciated the convenient hotel pick-up, as well as the time spent exploring the islands. We also truly appreciate your kind words about our staff. Sea conditions can sometimes make the floating piers challenging, and we’re glad our team was able to assist and ensure your safety and comfort throughout the trip. Thank you as well for your honest feedback regarding the breakfast. We understand your disappointment and will review this with our team to see how we can improve the onboard offering and descriptions to better manage expectations. We’re grateful for your recommendation and hope to welcome you again in the future. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
The tour is recommended! The first ascent (to the lagoon) is no problem. The second ascent to the view point is challenging! We had two days of the worst muscle soreness in our legs afterwards 🙆😅 But the view is outstanding from up there! The food on the boat tasted good.
Thank you very much for your great review. We’re happy to hear that you found the tour recommendable and enjoyed the experience overall. We’re glad to know the breathtaking scenery made the effort worthwhile, even if it came with a couple of days of sore legs! Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
