    The excursion was well organized, picked up and dropped off at our hotel. The speedboat was in excellent condition and it took only 1.5 hours to get to the Similan Islands. The scenery is stunning, the water is crystal clear. The snorkelling wasn’t the greatest but it was a great day on the water.

    We enjoyed this trip a lot, and the islands’ landscape and snorkelling experience were perfect. Minnie, Stephanie & co were so friendly and put us at ease immediately. They made the trip especially enjoyable. One thing to note is that we felt that the transit time should have been more clear from the booking page that the speedboat to the islands is 1hr 15 mins (and that is once you have arrived at the dock via multiple hotel pick ups). If you are travelling from Phuket I imagine this could be arduous. The lunch and breakfast provisions are fine and they kindly provide regular snacks and drinks too.

    The similan islands are amazing! Water and beaches are just perfect. You can see a lot of sea life while snorkeling. The tour guides are very nice. The only down side is that they put a lot of people on the boat, so it gets a little overcrowded. But we still could enjoy the tour!
