About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 301kurtd0 contributionsFeel ScammedPurchased a fast boat ride from Geen Planet in Ao Nang from a local representative The representative asked us what hotel we were staying in Phuket which we showed on our phone. She told us in the price would include our shuttle service to from our hotel. We paid and received a receipt. The receipt clearly states we paid in full, and nmthat there would be no more money due. Upon arrival at the port the Dock attendant was very rude, and that we owed allot more money because our hotel was further away. He said he didn't care what we had to say he has been working there along time, and for us to call the company. We called the main office and was told the same on the phone, but she apologized. We feel the company operated dishonestly, rude, and did not honor our written contract . BUYERS BEWARE OF THIS COMPANYWritten 15 January 2025
- shelbyp2290 contributionsCould be betterScenery, floating markets and islands was great, but tour bus was 50 minutes late which impacted the day. James Bond Island was very crowded as multiple tours arrived at the same time. Waterfall was underwhelming as it was more of a stream and had a musky smell, but that may be due to rainy weather the day before. There was also over an hour and a half drive from Ao Nang, Krabi, which was briefly mentioned in the itinerary but most of us were caught off guard.Written 9 January 2025
- Flyer7762660 contributionsGreat experience and lovely horsesGreat experience - a friend and I went and we have ridden before. We walked through the countryside and on the beach before ending with a canter and gallop across the beach. The horses were lovely and very well looked after. The tour guides were helpful and accommodating.Written 8 January 2025
- Scenic230212442330 contributionsTotal scam, stay away. Worst experience everThe worst tour of my life. It's the 3rd time I travel to Thailand. Never had any issues with tour always so kind and organized. This is a total scam. The price is not high so we wouldn't expect that much, but we have been treated like soldiers not tourist on holiday. The 1st part was okay just short time to the 1st stop. The problems started at the lunch stop. A total scam, horrible experience. They clearly said 60 min + 60 min Poda island. We got 35 minutes on the island. Can you believe it? While other people per having buffet we got lunch box (ok), as soon as you finished you have to go. From 12:35pm to 13:10pm. Literally took 2 pictures and go, no time to explore the island, no time to take pictures not even to swim in the water on an island!!! Last stop another scam, they said phra nang beach and railay, they leave you at the port and give you 30min. But you need 10 to go and come back from the beach 😂. And they said, you can come back by yourself this boat leave at 14.20pm... Please stay away, don't trust this guys, waiting money, which is okay you are on holiday but waiting people time on holiday it's the worst thing you can do. You should close your tour agency, you just scammers with no respect for people. Feel very sorry because Thai people are good people, always welcoming and with the best tour experiences. Not this ones. Stay awayWritten 7 January 2025
- speedy40 contributionsGood way to get to Phuket from Ao nang.Approximately 100 people on board. So very busy and all sat very close together. We did get a bottle of water. The noise from the engines was very loud. Take ear plugs. Good service for what we paid.Written 6 January 2025
- jacquelinecP22DZ0 contributionsNot for anyone with motion sickness issues5 stars for the wonderful staff, the negative review is purely due to the extreme seasickness I experienced on this trip and serves as a warning - if you tend to experience any sort of motion sickness this tour unfortunately isn’t for you. The ride to Koh Tao was incredibly choppy since I was told that January is monsoon season (despite it being a beautiful clear day). The kind staff were prepared, passing out baggies for anyone feeling sick - less than an hour into the tour, at least 5 people threw up. I read a lot of reviews warning about this and came really prepared taking Dramamine ahead of the ride (and then multiple doses on the ride). I also had motion sickness bands on my wrists. None of this worked for me and I too was extremely nauseous before we arrived at the first stop (though I managed to not throw up on the boat). The staff were incredibly accommodating allowing me to essentially leave the tour - I truly don’t think I could tolerate more time on this boat and they took me seriously when I told them this. They booked me onto a large ferry from Koh Tao - this was much less choppy and a nice experience back. I was surprised what a difference a bigger boat makes and am really grateful to the staff for arranging for me to leave this tour. Please be careful - if you have any issues with motion sickness at all, I really don’t recommend this tour for you even with motion sickness meds like I had. Take a public boat to Koh Tao instead - it will be a much nicer experience for you.Written 2 January 2025
- E6568JStonyg0 contributionsQuite a nice trip.Quite nice trip. Pick up and delivery back to our villa. Was four stops, not four islands. Boat crew were good, lunch was good. Snorkeling spot was average - a lot of dead coral, but plenty of small fish. Would recommend as a budget friendly trip.Written 29 December 2024
- tmolta0 contributionsInteresting way to get off Koh SamuiThe experience will depend on the waters. On our day, the seas were just a bit choppy, with only a few whitecaps. But, as a catamaran, our boat felt choppy. For some, nauseatingly choppy. The bus connection to Hua Hin was very efficient and comfortable. The price of the boat and the VIP bus is reasonable.Written 29 December 2024
- R8186IPnikkij0 contributionsA fantastic adventure with an awesome guideThis was a truly amazing trip. Our guide James was wonderful so informative, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about all aspects of the tour. We had a great time Kayaking and swimming in the clear waters of the mangroves. Lunch at a local restaurant was a nice touch and something we wouldn’t have experienced if we hadn’t had gone on this trip. James wanted us to experience true Thailand and we definitely did. Railway beach was one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been and the kids loved the bats in the cave. We can’t fault this trip and highly recommend to families and anyone who wants to experience true Thailand with a wonderful guide.Written 25 December 2024
- Amy Q0 contributionsHighly recommend, it is not to be missed.This trip was excellent and a highlight if my holiday. Our tour guide Pradest made this so special and memorable. The information and care he provided was outstanding. He ensured that we saw and learnt so much, he was incredibly passionate about the environment, animals and his country. We saw so many wild animals and the scenery qas breathtaking. The trip was full of well thought out activities and also included time to relax and enjoy the scenery. The trip was brilliant but Pradest made it perfect.Written 20 December 2024
- R6035BIalib0 contributionsHighly Recommend!My husband and I did the half-day tour with Ae, and it was an incredible experience! I booked it online the day before we were going to go. Shortly after, we received an email that included the time we would be picked up from our hotel. We were the only ones in the car and the driver was very friendly. When we got to the place, we found out we were the only ones in the group, so we had Ae, our guide, all to ourselves! Since it was just us, he suggested that instead of going to the canyon, where most people go, we go instead in the other direction to go through the mangroves and see a cave. We got to see monitor lizards, sea otters, sea eagles, and a monkey! Ae was so interesting to talk to, and he also took amazing photographs and videos of us all during the trip. They were truly artistic and beautiful. We loved learning about him growing up learning from his dad about fishing, and about the environment and how things had changed over history due to development and global warming. It was such a fun morning.Written 11 December 2024
- seikkailija19800 contributionsA fantastic riding experience with friends. Suitable for riders of all levels. The guides led the horses if needed.A wonderful experience with friends. We rode along the beach and through the forest. Everything went perfectly well. Thank you 😃Written 10 December 2024
- Fearless634397180580 contributionsBad experienceI booked the sunset dinner tour and requested a special diet of fish as we don’t eat halal meat The rep of this company sent me confirmation the day before but when got there the food was halal meat and we told them what we requested the staff member Daniel of sunset tours was very rude to us It’s a bad company to book with Definitely not recommendedWritten 4 December 2024
- thomash2810 contributionsGood serviceVery good service. You can book online or buy a ticket at the pier. Nothing special about the boat ( apart from the views) but nothing wrong with it either, although only 4 toilets and they were a bit of a mess by the end. Slightly disorganised in getting your luggage off the boat, but this is also due to the other passengers. Free shuttle direct to our hotel ( in Phuket town) included in the price as well.Written 27 November 2024
- Dan H0 contributions007 and a whole lot moreThe 5:00am pick up from our hotel was so worth it to be the first on James Bond Island. Our guide Yaya and boat crew were absolutely fantastic, always providing food and drinks, helping guests on and off the boat, nothing was too much trouble. A very smoothly run excursion from start to finish back at our hotel.Written 25 November 2024

Today we made a trip by speedboat to Koh Tao and Koh Nang Yuan. A light breakfast was given at the peer, a banana, some fried balls and white bread. Before boarding we needed to fill in a form that we had no diseases...
The weather was very windy and rainy, and the speedboat was a toy for the waves. It was jumping up and down, left and right. The sea water was coming through the roof and we got totally wet.
It felt horrible, the boat was full of vomiting and loudly screaming Chinese or Asian people. The crew was prepared for this, with an ‘anti-vomit’ massage on board and many garbagebags to vomit in; we think it happens a lot.
After snorkeling we arrived at Koh Tao, and we decided not to go further with this trip on the speedboat. We booked a ticket at the Ferry, back to Koh Samui.
Besides this bad experience, the crew was kind, nice, and very helpful to the sick people.

Dear Michael,
Thank you for your review and we are sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with our service.
During check-in at the pier, it is necessary for every traveller to fill the name and passport number in the form of travel insurance even you have no diseases.
Now is rainy season in southern Thailand. There are rainy, windy, and waves some days.
Warm regards,
