Top organization, anyone can recommend that organization. From pick up to return, tip top. Highly recommended. Definitely again next time.
Hartelijk dank voor uw geweldige review! Wat fijn om te horen dat u zo'n positieve ervaring had met onze tour. We streven ernaar om alles van begin tot eind perfect te organiseren, en het is fantastisch dat dit bij u in de smaak viel. We kijken ernaar uit om u de volgende keer weer aan boord te verwelkomen voor een nieuw avontuur! Tony en zijn team Samui Backpacker Groep Koh Samui, Thailand
Echoing the previous review, we booked a private sunset cruise with snorkelling and a visit to Pig Island. The pick up was badly delayed, there was zero communication from the random person who met us at the dock, and most concerningly the two individuals in charge of the ship spoke no English. Very much not the “luxury” trip we paid for, with a coconut pushed into our hands (which wasn’t wanted at the time!) and nothing else, no towels or water, just a transfer on a old, slow “speed”boat. The weather turned whilst we were at Koh Madsum, which meant the trip was curtailed with no offer of an alternative date to fulfill the itinerary. Partial refund was also refused.
Dear Katherine Taylor, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. However, we’d like to clarify that this tour is a private speedboat experience, not a luxury cruise. The speedboat takes only 15-20 minutes between each island, ensuring a quick and efficient journey. Regarding the weather, safety is always our top priority. Unfortunately, weather conditions can sometimes change unexpectedly, and while we do our best to provide a full experience, safety decisions must take precedence. We also regret any miscommunication during your trip. While our crew may have limited English skills, they are highly experienced in operating the boat and ensuring guest safety. We will, however, take your feedback into account to improve our communication process. Thank you again for your input, and we hope you still enjoyed the natural beauty of the islands. Best regards, Speedboat Team
Terrible experience. We thought it was impossible to meet unfriendly people in Thailand. The 2 boat drivers proved us wrong. No eye contact, not a word of English (when you put them in charge of your children's lives in the middle of the ocean, it's not a good feeling if you can't communicate with them). The boat is an old piece of ...metal. We stopped at a beach on Kao Tan, full of trash, the snorkeling was bad (in their defense, the weather was not great so the sea was rough). The 2 drivers left the boat to go hang out with their friends. We were left all alone with some old snorkeling equipment and a few bottles of coke and water. No towel. The tour was supposed to start at 2pm, it started at 3pm. It was meant to last 4 hours but we asked the drivers to bring us back after 1 hour. Very bad experience. Do not book that trip.
Dear Sandrine Rickenbach, Travellers from Switzerland. We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. Providing a safe, enjoyable, and welcoming trip is our top priority, and we regret that this was not reflected in your tour. We sincerely apologize if the communication with our crew was challenging. While our team strives to provide the best service, we understand that clear communication is essential, especially when traveling with family. Regarding the boat and itinerary, we appreciate your feedback and will be reviewing this internally to ensure better quality control. We’re also sorry to hear about the beach conditions and snorkeling experience—while weather can sometimes impact visibility, we want every guest to have a great time. We would also like to kindly mention that all inclusions for the tour, such as snorkeling equipment, bottled water, a private long-tail boat (4 hours), accident insurance, and an ice box, are clearly listed on our website. Additionally, as communicated via WhatsApp before your trip, we informed you about what to bring, including your own towels. We always encourage guests to review this information carefully before their trip. Regarding the boat, we assure you that while it may not be brand new, it is well-maintained, with all engines, safety equipment, and insurance in good condition to ensure a safe and smooth journey for our guests. Your feedback is invaluable, and we will use it to improve our tours. If you’d be open to discussing this further, please reach out to us directly, as we’d love the opportunity to make things right.
Enjoyed! Helpful staff who took us to another island when we explained that we didn't care to go to pig island. We stayed on a beach of one island that we had to ourselves.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! 🌅 We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the trip and appreciated the flexibility of our staff in tailoring the experience to your preferences. Having a beach all to yourself sounds like the perfect way to soak in the beauty of the islands! 🏝️ We hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable adventures soon. 😊✨ ฺBest regards, Tony and Team Backpacker Samui Travel Group Koh Samui, Thailand

It’s great to know that our team and the pick-up service added to your enjoyment. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another memorable adventure in Koh Samui!

We were a group of 6 friends who wanted a private speedboat to visit some islands and do some snorkeling. From the minute I booked this on Viator, Tony got in touch almost immediately and was constantly in touch to arrange the pick up from our resort and take us to the pier. The trip took us to three fabulous islands and the snorkeling spot was brilliant. Koh Rap and Pig Island was amazing and they gave us plenty of time to explore and relax in each location… it was a great experience and one I would certainly recommend.
Thanks for sharing your experience! It sounds like you had an amazing time exploring the islands and snorkeling with Tony's private speedboat tour. Koh Rap and Pig Island sound fantastic, and it's great to hear they provided plenty of time for exploration and relaxation. We look forward to welcoming you back for more adventures in the future! Best regards, Tony & Team Koh Samui, Thailand.
