Similan Islands - On April 11, 2024 we took an excursion to the Similan Islands. It was incredible😍 We were picked up from the hotel in the morning, taken to the pier, fed, and set off. It took 1.5 hours to sail there and back, but the time flew by quickly. A guide walking around 🔥 islands of incredible beauty! It was real paradise! Azure sky, fine white sand, beautiful tropical forests and clear clear water! While snorkeling I saw a big turtle and a lot of different fish!) In general, I recommend these islands to everyone!🔥

Beautiful experience - The buses for hotel pickups were very comfortable and luxurious. The initial check was very smooth. The meals had limited vegetarian options but were good enough. Love the fact that they give bands which allowed us to find our guide and group easily . The boat was clean and comfortable enough. There was some crowd at the islands but our tour guide managed it very well. Philips was very helpful and also fluent in English which helped ensure we understand the instructions well. Love the fact that they had people supporting those passengers who are not good with swimming for the snorkelling bits. Lunch was also served separately for the vegetarians. Overall a great experience and something I would recommend to anyone going to phuket

Except for lunch everything was great. - Similan Island is well worth seeing. There wasn't much color to see when snorkeling. Very disgusting lunch. Otherwise everything was good.

A very long day!!!! - A very long day. We didn’t realise that the drive from Phuket to the port would take 2 hours each way!!!!! Then 75 mins over on the boat begins first stop. Gorgeous islands and snorkelling was fab but not sure trip was worth the money. Food was awful too. Flies everywhere. Crew were friendly and animated. Would we book again, probably not but nice experience x

Nice but far away - Pretty islands with beautiful sea but 7 hours travelling there and back was a bit too much from Patong.

Sad view on a beautiful place - This is a perfect example of how mass tourism can destroy an amazing place on earth. Hundreds of tourists arrive at the beach at the same moment, snorkeling takes place near dead corals. It's a pity that Thailand does not limit the number of tourists in such places, because in a few years there will be nowhere to go and nothing will be left here except a stone on the beach.

To avoid absolutely - The tour operator dropped us off on a small beach where there were hundreds of people and dozens of boats. The planned meal was terrible, under a tin roof, we must have been there too at least 500 people. The boat was very uncomfortable, we bounced on each wave, we had to hold on and the captain did not respect the maximum authorized speed The toilets on the islands were disgusting
