Great trip RUINED by Indians!

Thank you for a great day. Your team was absolutely great. We loved both the Joes onboard, and the female guide as well, she was really nice to everyone. Serving with a smile. The only issue we faced wasn't due to a mistake from your team, so dont worry, but I thought I'd still tell you of our experience. The only bad part about the trip was the Indian people. Indian men only stared at other people all day long, specifically women. In the boat rides, on the islands, Indian men staring at women constantly for long periods of time. All of them were also loud, shouting, which was opposite to the atmosphere everyone had gone there for. One indian man was doing rounds to and from the toilet at the pier, just so he could continue staring at the girls who were fixing themselves either after coming back or before going on the boat. Even Indian women kept staring at my wife in a rude way. Even in normal day to day life in Thailand, we have only faced issues here because of Indians. So I dont know how possible it is, but like Yona Beach did, perhaps they should be banned from these tours as well where a select few ruin it for all the other guests. Always loud, and uncivil. We would have had the absolute perfect day without these few ill-mannered people, but your team was A plus. We love your team and much love to you guys. Thank you again.

3 khai islands afternoon snorkeling trip

Fast, fun afternoon trip. Bring reef shoes (or buy at the meeting point), snacks and sunscreen. That's all you need for a grand time.

Cozy half day trip but somewhat stressful.

A cosy half-day tour to the 3 khai islands. Traveled with 3 children 7 months, 6 years and 9 years. Think the tour seemed just right with half a day but now think in hindsight that they were a bit half stressful. The snorkel trip at stop two was 20 minutes which was super short time in the water. Very nice person on the boat who helped, received and was super friendly. But I think you get more out of the whole ones if you take full day trips.

10/10

We had this experience with my two kids. It was a wonderful trip! We booked this from Klook and the tour guides were humorous with clear instructions. The speed boat that we rode was also clean and spacey with drinks, fruits and snorkels provided. The tour guide played some music at the end of the trip to hype up the vibe which was one of the best parts. What a fun trip! 10/10 will join again next time.

Great short speedboat trip out for snorkelling & water sports on the 3 Khai islands

We wanted to visit some islands on our trip but as half our family don’t like boating so we chose a short speedboat trip to do snorkelling & enjoyed this trip as it was a quick trip out to the islands. There was the option of jet skiing & banana boating on 2 of the 3 islands but we were happy to snorkel as lots of fish to see. Noah the host was excellent & funny. We enjoyed the water, coke & fruit snacks on the boat to keep our energy up for the afternoon. The transfer van out there was comfortable too.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review! We are so glad to hear that our VGA VACATION trip was the perfect choice for your family, offering a quick and enjoyable speedboat experience to the islands. It’s fantastic that you were able to snorkel and see so many fish, and that the refreshments kept everyone energized for the afternoon. We're especially proud of our guide, Noah, and are thrilled to hear that his excellent and funny hosting made your trip so memorable. It’s great to know that the comfortable transfer van also contributed to a seamless experience. We hope to welcome you and your family back for another great adventure with VGA VACATION soon!

This is a big NO-NO

Awful place, full of people, hammocks everywhere, restaurants... just getting off the boat, they bombard you offering non-stop services. Besides, it is dirty, I have dedicated myself to collecting plastics and bottle caps because I am horrified to see how badly nature treats. Thailand is the country of use and throw right now, the use of plastics is massive. Not a tour I recommend at all, although the guides we had were very friendly. What a pity of place, it would be nice without constructions, hammocks and people everywhere.

Operator response

We apologies for your experience but what you experience is beyond our control. It is the touristic season and we cannot control who goes on the island. Moreover, we have no control of how the beach vendors operate their business. This is disclosed in our description and hope you read it. Strangely, everyone else on the tour enjoyed their day.

Best Thailand island tour

We had Elli and her team yesterday. I've done tours all over Thailand and this tour by far Was the best one yet. Elli was fantastic, great comedy. The crew was very well prepared,gave out free snacks and sea sick tablets as well as snorkles. Were very thourogh in saftey. this particular tour was enough to do rather than a full day beautiful Waters, great cocktails.

A big no no. Do not recommend this tour/company.

I wouldn’t recommend this tour unfortunately. I’ve done a lot of boat tours and island hopping tours, but this one felt different. It felt too obvious that it was a cash grab. We rode 20 mins on the boat to spend 1 hour at an island that is ridiculously expensive just to step on, and have people bombard you with spending money. We spent over 2000 baht just for 3 drinks, a mango smoothie and a banana roti. It was about 300 or 350 bahr for each drink. The energy feels off. The moment you get off the boat, the sellers bombard you. A lady grabbed my arm and pointed me to a seat to sit down, before telling me I have to spend 150 baht just to sit down. It’s done so aggressively that it leaves you feeling scammed. We had to skip the snorkeling part of the tour because it was too windy. That was understandable as it was a safety thing, but that was the perfect excuse for them to take us 2 mins down to another cash grabbing, scam-my, and waaayy too packed beach that is literally full of trash. We didn’t feel like being scammed into buying more super expensive food and drinks, so we sat on an abandoned table outside of the restaurant by some trash to wait for the boat to take us back. Overall a very bad experience and I wouldn’t take this company again.

Operator response

We are sorry about your experience. The vendors on the island can be very pushy and over charge for service. But everything, had to come in from boats... Unfortunately, we cannot inform them how to conduct business. Moreover, we have inform you about the 150THB sunbeds/seat and to ignore the vendors. There are many bars and restaurants to shop from and you can rely on our guides to make recommendation for the people that offer fair price. Moreover, you don't actually have to buy anything.... Wished you joined our morning tour because it is more calm and much less people on the islands.
