Best part of my trip - The sanctuary of truth was beautiful and amazing! Honestly I wasn’t expecting to enjoy that part of the trip as much as I did, as I typically am not too big on sightseeing. The island was amazing!!! The water was crystal clear and I got to enjoy well priced food and drinks on the beach. I did the parasailing that wasn’t attached to the boat and I highly recommend it! We got to fly all around the island!! If there were multiple islands to visit, I would have done a trip like this with these guides every day I was in Thailand!

Good experience out of Bangkok city - Sanctuary of truth was really worth the visit and Cherry our guide was nice to share some jokes and her stories about Pattaya.

Absolutely worth it! - It was a great experience! Cherry our guide and the driver forgetting his name both were real sweet. The tour and the experience is absolutely worth it. Just one thing though- they can stop at the Scenic point in Pattaya for longer. They literally let us stay there for 5 mins which I thought was rushed. Nonetheless it took quite a few hours to get back to Bangkok because of evening traffic.

Very beautiful and interesting - I made the tour on November 10, 2024 to Pattaya + Coral Island + Sanctuary of Verdadd with the guide Jackie who at all times he was super attentive and very helpful. It was difficult at first to find the meeting point for boarding, but he called explained and went to my meeting to look for. The fast boat to the coral island can be turbulent but well worth it. The place is beautiful and deserves a visit!

The Sanctuary of Truth is breathtaking - The tour was well-organized, and visiting the Sanctuary of Truth was a highlight—it was stunning to see with incredible craftsmanship. I only wish we had more time to spend there. The beach time was excellent, with plenty of activity options to choose from.

Sanctuary of Truth and Pattaya Island visit. - The value for this tour was reasonable. The bus that drove us down to Pattaya was really nice and comfortable. Our tour guide took us to all locations promptly.

Fun but the activities that aren’t included like the water activities can rack up price quickly - Was a very fun and exciting day. I would say don’t do the parasailing it’s 800 baht for not even 5 min. The description should give you estimates for how much cash to bring as it can rack up very quickly.

A great one day escape from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok, the island was busy but the sea is beautiful! - The boat rides across to Koh Larn were lovely and it was great way to see some more of Thailand. The Sanctury of Truth is an amazing place too and totally worth a visit!!

Rude & authoritative guide, without providing needed info - The temple of truth is indeed beautiful, but you don't have enough time to enjoy it. The guide from the bus was rude, and all of us didn't like him at all (we were 9 persons from 4 countries). He didn't explain about the landmarks or other things; he was authoritative from the beginning of the day till the end.
We took 2 trips in Thailand via TripAdvisor, and both were below the expectations in terms of guides. At least Thailand is beautiful, and you can enjoy it anyway.

Mass tourism at its best - We chose the tour to get out to the sea for a day. The pick-up and the transfers worked and our guide was very lovely and helpful. However, it was very hard to understand his English and we didn't really receive much information from him at the sights - it felt more like he was our babysitter (taking us to places, paying tickets and watching our belongings. At all stops it felt like we were part of a consumption line. "Get out here and take photo". Also, the driver was professional and the van very clean, comfortable and with an AC. At Coral Island we felt like trapped in a mass tourism hell - rows of sun loungers, much noice due to hundreds of motorboats and jet skis, annoying sellers, cheep souvenirs everywhere and the sea was full of trash. We had to spend three hours there and basically had to buy a sun lounger because there was no other way to spend time on the beach. Afterwards we went to the Sanctuary of Truth. This place is stunningly beautiful and this is the reason we were at least happy to have booked the tour. The building is a miracle. Unfortunately, we only had one hour there and were shoved through the sight by the guide...it was impossible to take everything in. We wish, we could have had more time there. It would have made the trip much better.
All in all, it was probably worth the price, when one considers the transfers and the ticket to the sanctuary...but it is definitely not a trip we would book again...
