Additional Information

The adventure of visiting the tiny islands south of Samui on a speed boat was absolutely incredible. You’ll get a chance to snorkel at the prime spot of Koh Tan Bay, unwind on the beach of Koh Mudsum, and have the unique experience of feeding the island pigs. The absolute joy of the journey is interacting with the adorable pigs at the secluded Pig Beach and relishing a delectable meal on Koh Mudsum Beach. Neither of the islands has electricity or running water, making them an unspoiled paradise, just a brief trip away from the southern reaches of Samui.

Loved this tour - Loved this tour! We had a bus pick us up from the hotel, which was simple to organise on Viator. The tour guide explained our day and was super organised and friendly. Only thing I would suggest, if you don’t like spicy food or are a fussy eater like me, I would suggest selecting the vegetarian option for lunch which was 2x spring rolls, chips & fried rice. We didn’t do this, and regretted it! Remember to bring sun screen and a hat if possible.

A fun day all around. - While many of the reviews we read said that they were not too impressed by the snorkeling, we really enjoyed it. Sure, the fish aren't as pretty as Hawaii but there were a lot and it was fun jumping off of the boat. We had fun with the pigs. There were so many little babies. The food was good and plentiful. We also enjoyed kayaking. There were many available and the guides were happy to take pictures for us. Despite what I read in some reviews, I saw the pigs being fed and cared for by staff who knew them by name. To me they seemed well taken care of.

Great experience - Great experience, boat staff very helpful. Family all really enjoyed it and the pigs were very gentle even when being fed by a one year old. Please note that there are only two stops on this trip. The last stop to the authentic fisherman’s village does not happen.

A good, friendly day out - The beaches were incredible and as always with Thai people, extremely friendly and accommodating. A good length of trip by using the morning slot to not take up all of your day

Lovely day out! - Well organised tour, great transfer to boat which was very new looking and clean. Water provided and a nice calm trip to the island with ample time to snorkel. Pig island was fun great to see these animals in such a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Enjoyed feeding and watering them. Food was great too. Overall a lovely day out would recommend !

Pig island - Fantastic - Due to the weather the location for snorkelling was changed, although this was disappointing it was clear that the boat crew had safety of the passengers at the forefront. We were still able to snorkel at another location, however less fish! The boat crew (boat 4) were brilliant, the island itself was excellent, superb value for money. The organiser (Mr Tony) kept us well informed of the trip details via sms, would definitely recommend his company

Good experience but not worth the money - Good experience but definitely not worth the £40pp. Constant chasing from ‘Mr.Tony’ via WhatsApp to be ready for 08:30 to be picked up, only to arrive at the pier and wait 45 minutes before leaving. The snorkelling was OK, not the best area for snorkelling but managed to see some fish and the coral. Kayaking was help yourself to a kayak but then not enough oars to go around everyone, so only 4 or 5 kayaks could be out in the water at one time. Lunch was very poor and couldn’t wait to get back to the hotel for food, select the vegetarian option when asked on the boat as you get spring rolls and fries, better than the meat selection which was all cold. Seeing the pigs definitely made the trip worthwhile!

Nice well organized trip but once was enough - Well organized trip. Short speedboat ride to a not so great snorkeling area, the over to Koh Madsum to see the pigs and relax on the beach. Nice beach and swimming area but the pigs (and dogs) are over breeding and survive purely on food and water provided by the tourism trade. Only one complaint was our designated van driver refused to drive up the short (but steep) hill to our villa so we hade to walk down and up the steep hill with young children. I’m not sure what the problem was as every other vehicle goes up and down without a problem. Overall it was a nice trip with mostly polite and friendly people.
