          A must done!
          We wanted an authentic experience with my 13 years old son and it was great! Captain “Eg” and fish-man “Pot” are super friendly, organized and so professional! Note that boats and captains are not necessarily those we had, as it’s based on availability. Nature was generous with us that day, we took several fishes and a one of a kind monster. Mr Ungs picked us up at our hotel, he is also very nice and funny. From 9h to 17h30 (including travels)- 10h to 16h on the boat. Overall we recommend this activity!

          A great day out!
          We had a great day! We were a bit unsure at first as our driver didn't speak English. However when we met up with the other 3 tour jeeps at the first stop of the tour, there was an English speaking guide that gave us a lot of knowledge on each place we visited. We had 20 mins to visit each place, which wasn't a lot of time, but enough to get some pictures. It gave me and my husband ideas of where to go back to. The trip up the mountain was very fun and bumpy, but be warned, there are no seat belts in the back of the jeep or on top so don't book this trip if you are not used to being off road! I've also read a few reviews about the exhaust fumes, it is fumey, but nothing you can't cope with - they're old trucks! We got to ride on the top of the jeep in the mountains and then on the road we had to ride in the back. The waterfalls we went swimming in have fast flowing water which was safe. TIP - bring swim shoes as there are rocks on the bottom! You can see where they used to take people swimming on the slides and stagnant water, but it's clearly not in use anymore. The lunch was amazing, so delicious, home cooked Thai food. If you love the outdoors and getting stuck in then book this trip. You visit a variety of places and do a variety of things and have lots of fun as the staff and people are lovely!

          Well organised and wonderful experience
          We had a wonderful day fishing with plentiful fishes waiting to eat our baits. Lunch and refreshemenrs were provided as mentioned and the best part was of course to BBQ and eat our freshly caught fishes 👍

          Would never do again
          We got thrown in a pickup box for an hour drive without any info… waited at a 7/11 for another 20m without any info… got on the boat with no introductions or names as neither spoke any English…. Got handed our fishing rods and told to “fish” … they went and fished off the back of the boat and left us to fend for ourselves… my wife spent half the time snagged as they wouldn’t give us any info… Lunch was awesome!! Snorkeling was good!! Then back to fishing; this time trolling for big fish and they put two old crank baits off the bat that didn’t even dive and we went 2 hours with nothing… then got back to the dock they slammed a “tip” cup in our face… then we waited for another 30 minutes before the miserable ride back

          Get familiar with the island in course of a great off-road tour.
          What should I say…actually, it was an awesome day and I encourage everyone to join this tour as well. It’s a great opportunity to see the most worth seeing spots on the island combined and mixed with action (off-road, water slides in the jungle) and lots of fun. The tour was very well-organised and the entire crew spreads good mood and fun. Finding: good lunch, several spots/activities considering also cultural/historical issues within one day which was never boring. Cons: we were a little exhausted after the tour 😇🌴

          Great experience!
          We were taken out for a 6 hour round trip, we started by hugging for small fish and it was great to catch a handful of yellow fish and grouper etc. We then set off on the authentic Thai fishing boat towards an island reef for some snorkelling, on the way we were given some of the fish we had just caught with some chicken fried rice which went down a treat. After feeding the small fish at the snorkelling location with the provided watermelon we headed back to the port in Samui where we trailed a couple of rods, I caught a 13 pound Barracuda which was by far the highlight of the trip! They provided hydration and kept us safe along the great day out!

          Had a lovely day on a fishing trip with Mr Ung's tour. Mr Dan, our guide was simply fantastic. We were also served a great lunch. Would definately recommend this tour, and hope to go again soon :)

          Jungle Safari extremely fun experience.
          The Jungle Safari was just so much fun. I come from Africa and Mr Ungs did The Safari experience so exceptionally well. Exquisite views and jungle experience. Such fun 4x4 experience. The stops were so enlightening and so much knowledge learnt from Tour Guide Mr A. Well done to this establishment. Beautifully planned out 🙏🏼

          We had an amazing private tour with the best driver Khun A on 11th April 2021. Thank you for all the stories about this island. We had so much fun! 😃 Just do it if you want to see all of Ko Samui! 🏝😉

          Do not book this
          DO NOT BOOK THIS!!!!!!!! Vile. Money making scam and taken to dirty (mainly free entry) locations. One bottle of free water and told to keep bottle for refills - no thank you. Whole trip was a mess and completely pointless. Rammed in to a jeep sitting uncomfortably going to free destinations. Pray you have average sized persons on jeep as one uncomfortable ride if not. On arrival to these places to find you pay additional money for extra activities. We didn't want to do zip line so literally waited at the side along with the other 20/27 people who didn't do this activity. Waterfalls were the most disgusting and unhygienic. Very few people went in the stagnant water. 10baht to go to the toilet in the most disgusting conditions. Land not well maintained and dangerous. Plastic bottles everywhere and bins not emptied. Was told swim area was cleaned 5 days ago at waterfalls and staff proceeded to prove this to us all by showing us pictures on his phone cleaning it, how embarrassing. Disgusting!!! One man speaking Thai, German and English for separate groups - have to wait till he has spoke to individual groups, very little information provided. Mumified Monk, most bizarre unauthentic place filled with donation boxes absolutely everywhere. Trip filled with people disappointed and shaking heads in disapproval whole time. Everyone was waiting at jeep at each stop to leave the location as fed up. You'd have a better time at the beach with much more positive experience. Please do not book this trip, it's laughable how bad it was! Lunch was good and relaxed and magic Buddah garden was beautiful. That's about it. The chosen temples all had ongoing construction work. Staff got more talkative/tried to be funny towards end of trip know there was a potential to get a tip. Not worth money to be taken to unhygienic places, waterfalls being the main one.

          Jeep jungle tour
          We made an one day jeep jungle tour with them and it was really worth it. There was a lot of fun; for example: you can travel on the top of the jeep, you can play water guns against another jeeps... And of course, you can see all the things which are written. Oh...and the lunch is really tasty. ( but the beer is a little bit expensive.)

          One of the best days we had in koh Samui, also a brilliant tour guide. If your thinking about this trip it’s a must. Also make sure you sit on top for the ride through the jungle. Absolutely brilliant not laughed so much. Also great value for money. Thanks again.

          Such a hilarious day!
          We did the ziplining and waterfall tour with lunch and it was so much fun and very reasonably priced. Our group was a real laugh and the Thai food at lunch time was lovely. We broke down on route and they had a new jeep with us within 5 mins - amazing!!

          An awesome 4WD adventure!
          Our driver Dang showed us many of the local sights...Grandfather/Grandmothers rocks, mummified monk, big buddha, the magic garden, a rubber plantation and one of the many stunning waterfalls on Koh Samui. We were also treated to a delicious mountain top thai lunch, and a 4wd trip up the mountain atop our old army jeep. Highly recommend this for a fun day out!!

        This was such fun! The blurb for this mentions the word 'rugged' in relation to the jeep several times. Note that word when you book! This is not your regular day trip. This is for adrenaline junkies and the adventurous.

        There were 8 in our 'Batman' Jeep, who we quickly jelled with. At the first stop of the day, we met up with a further three jeeps and from then on, we travelled around as a convoy for much of the day. There is a lot of playful banter and crazyness between the drivers.

        Our driver/guide was brilliant, spoke good English and was completely and utterly zany! A real character. A second guide joined us for some of the journey too. For the adventurous, you can sit on the roof of the jeep too, but be warned to hang on tight as once you go off road, those jeeps crank up to the next level.

        The meal provided was traditional Thai and delicious. Bottles of water are provided several times during the day. The zip wire was great fun and we were encouraged to do the first upright and the second upside down. All the stops along the way were just the right length of time to see/do the sites/activities provided.

        Overall, this was a real enjoyable and fun day. We haven't laughed so much in long time either. This is definitely to be recommended.

        Note: wear trainers for this trip rather than flip flops.

        This tour was amazing. Johnny our guide was extremely nice and hilarious. Smotimes pulled some pranks on the group and was constantly cracking jokes. At almost every stop he provided you with a nice amount of information about the spot you're going to be looking at. He did it in English and then in German (if you understand English you were free to go after the English part).
        The waterfight was the absolute highlight. Nothing is quiet like sitting on top of a jeep and cruising trough the beautiful scenery while spraying water onto the other jeeps passengers. (if you don't want to get wet on the fight you can buy a rainckver for yourself beforehand, but you'll probably get a little bit wet).
        The terrain is really bumpy at parts so I would really not recommend this to anyone who can't handle a good amount of shaking and numbing against the rating of the car. Especially on your back.
        The lunch at the top of the mountain was really delicious and you could eat to your hearts content since it was in pots and plates all over the table and not in single servings.
        The drivers may seem a bit reckless at times but we felt safe the entire time. They really knew which stunts to pull and which not to do.

        This is one of the best safari tours on the island - you see everything you need to in just one day.
        Opportunities for photos are galore and the people you meet are simply amazing!
        Our guide was great, telling us myths and stories of the various places we went to.
        The food, lunch was beyond expectations, it was AMAZING 😍 and catered for all types of foodies. Drinks were excluded but so cheap!
        I loved the ride back, on those trucks, so funny and entertaining!
        I loved it so much I recommended to my mates who also went and they loved it!
        For the price it is brilliant, in fact I think it's too cheap and they should raise their prices for what they give you.
        We tipped the drivers - they were grateful.
        Do try this!

        Booked onto this tour after seeing many excellent reviews. Picked up from hotel and spent over two hours in an uncomfortable truck with no water or stops. Got stuck in the Chinese New Year parade traffic, which they would have known would happen.
        Guide who was driving us was on the phone, calling and texting, the entire 2 hour drive. He was driving very unsafely and it was very disappointing.
        Truck is nothing like advertised or in the pictures of the tour, it is not a safari vehicle at all.
        Stopped off at the tour places for very short periods of time, no tour guide as was meant to be. Very hot and uncomfortable.
        Each stop was heaving with tourists, which is to be expected but did not realise how much of a tourist trap this would be.
        I would not recommend this tour to anyone, gutted because I thought it would be a great way to see the island but it was just all a huge disappointment.
        Don’t waste your money on this unless you want to sit in a hot truck for hours and not see much or learn about anything.

        We booked this trip to see more of the island and it didn’t disappoint. Johnny and his team of drivers put an adventurous spin on a multi-stop trip that was insightful, memorable and altogether awesome. We were dubious when we heard of the water fight but this is by far the most fun you could have while cruising in the jungle, and you will get wet! Special shout out to our driver Nick who gave us all the off-road thrills of riding up top on our jeep!
        Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone travelling to Koh Samui as it’s a brilliant way to meet people and see things you wouldn’t see otherwise.

        We had an enjoyable day out. We weren’t overwhelmed with info from our driver but got told more info at each of the stops. There was quite a lot packed in to the day for the money. The kids enjoyed riding on top of the jeep and the meal was nice. We didn’t really have long enough to do anything at the waterfall stop but you can only fit in so much within the time frame. All in all a good day out.

        What a fun day we had! I had no idea how many people were participating but they had 7 jeeps with 6-8 per car in them but they were well organized and it was fun to have us all driving up to different parts of Samui Island. After the busy part of the town, 3 can go up on the roof bench and the driver (Johnny- the leader) swaying on the bumpy mountain road to make our trip more fun!! We were smacked by some leaves and flowers up on the roof but we couldn't stop laughing!
        They stopped at a few view points and temples (honestly have no idea where we were... 😅) but the fun part really was the water fight as everyone agrees! You have no choice but participating because all of us got the pump bottle of water and start shooting at each other from the jeep driving passing each other! Omg... it was crazy fun! Johnny showed us a couple of living creatures(spiders, snakes etc.. ) on the road! I know they do this tour everyday but their energy level was very high as if this was their first time doing this. Thank you for your hard word work ! You guys are awesome 👌 and thank you for showing the beautiful Samui and its history ❤️ plus fun +++!

        Brilliant fun day out that was excellent value for money.
        The four of us - all 50+ were picked up in an old jeep and taken around the island to see the sights.
        Our convey of about 7 jeeps of all ages and nationalities soon became friends
        We didn’t spend very long at each place but the taster showed us where we wanted to return.
        We had lunch at a restaurant with a fantastic view, the food was amazing
        The water fall and magic garden needed the correct foot wear as it was quite slippery. The guides provided sarongs for the ladies in the holy places. A towel was needed if you want to swim in the water fall pool and for the water fight !!!
        If you want a lively fun day out you won’t be disappointed,

        A disgustingly unprofessional tour. Do not waste money on thie excuse of a day. Spent most of the day waiting around for the guides to stop yelling at eachother and smoking cigarettes. They also decided it was a good idea to give everyone squirt bottles to have a 'water fight'. Despite being a voluntary exercise, you inevitably will end up soaked. The sites that you see are nice, however it would be cheaper and quicker to hire a private driver for a few hours to take you around to see them. Extremely limited english spoken on tour.

        we booked this trip a couple of months ago based on the reviews and it did not disappoint. family of 4 - kids aged 20 and 17.

        picked up from our hotel on time we met our driver and car mates. The next 8 hours were spent touring all over the island visiting the big tourist hot spots. the highlight was a 30 min water fight from our jeeps.

        This trip is perfect for all ages, but you will need a sense of humour and adventure to enjoy it to the most.

        A delicious Thai lunch was served in a scenic mountain top restaurant. veggies were catered for (remember to mention this at time of booking).

        so pleased we booked this. If you're deliberating, then book it - you won't be disappointed.
