- Z2950QGrobertm0 contributionsDiscussingCharged the money but was never informed that national park was closed.and tour was canceled. Still trying to recoup the money.Written 5 December 2024
- Voyager170770926960 contributionsAbsolutely terrific.Absolutely a remarkable experience in this amazing activity thanks to the staff who are very professional and helpful but more child friendly and organized for complex situations. I would say that Zim and Soe are the absolute Jems of this place as we came back twice. Very worth the time and money.Written 2 December 2024
- 1terezaj0 contributionsNot worth itTerrible. Was a big storm i asked if its okay to go on a boat with 2 year old in this weather, they said its ok. It was the worst trip that i experienced, the way on the boat in the storm was like from horor movie. My toddler was terrified. Pigs were nice but not worth the money.Written 22 November 2024
- holleed20230 contributionsCome for the piggies not the snorkelling!This was a fun tour! Don’t come for the snorkelling as the reef isn’t that great, it’s quite cloudy. However the piggies and dogs on the island were so sweet! Be careful feeding the pigs, but other than that we really enjoyed our trip! The kayaks were nice, but you can’t go very far on them- however after the kayaking the dogs came and swam with us which was very sweet! You don’t do a lot, but it’s a fun affordable trip and worth it!(:Written 21 November 2024

We were collected from our hotel right on time, driven to the boats and given the best day of our holiday so far. Definitely worth the price.

- A9160ZIjodieh0 contributionsWell organised adventureThis trip was well organised. The best part was it did not take all day as it was only a short boat ride to the island via a snorkel swim.Written 14 November 2024
- eveaP6291QW0 contributionsMore than worth it !!!! - amazing experienceAmazing & smooth from start to finish!!! We wanted to avoid over crowded boats and stops we were not necessarily interested in therefore we opted for a private experience. This was perfect, the captain took us directly to pig island where we stopped off for a few hours, once the island got over crowded & busy he took us directly back to the port which was empty. Boats were coming in FULL of people i couldn't imagine how hot and squashed it must have been. Snorkelling was an option but we only wanted to visit the pigs!! Highly highly recommend this, the price is more than worth it to have your own boat, thanks again for a great experience!!Written 13 November 2024
- 324SandraE0 contributionsGood Thai cooking experienceDon’t eat before going! The class cooks 3 meals, one after the other, cooking - eating, cooking - eating, cooking - eating. Market visit and cooking is well organised and fun. You select from a good range of menu options and each person cooks their own menu. Venue is at house, so also includes learning about plants in garden (herbs, fruit, veg). Would recommend although we seemed to pay more than advertised price (AU) and I’m sure Trip Advisor gets a good chunk of what you pay. Would prefer if I could book with instructor directly.Written 8 November 2024

- 749yvettev0 contributionsAmazing ride on the beachI have been horse riding for a while, but never had the chance to go outside. This was my first time outside and it was amazing! The horses looked good and healthy. My ride was fantastic and fun. We first took it easy and after a while I could gallop as well. Such a cool experience as you get the chance to gallop in low water as well. I was the only one on the ride, but my 2 guides where fun, nice and made sure I was doing well. Along the way we found a sea turtle. I am grateful they took pictures and videos for me. As I could not reach my phone. I can recommend it to everyone!Written 19 October 2024
- Bronnyroos0 contributions2nd visit in 12 years - The young chap we had was brilliant but wrong time of the year if you want to see a waterfallNo water at the waterfall but I did see it last time 12 years ago so go in April (Thai New Year even better) for a good view. We had a young bloke who was hilarious (said he was new and had only been there 2 weeks but we think it was a scare tactic) who made it more enjoyable. My very old brother was terrified but completed it - all due to this young bloke. I would probably reduce the price when the waterfall is dry. 👍Written 16 October 2024
- David J0 contributionsGood Tour, Could be betterThe tour in general has great potential. Communication not so much. We arrived at the pier, paid our entrance fee for the park and received a green sticker. Boat ride to park was good. Breakfast was good. Arrive at the venue and that’s when the communication went sideways. Could barely understand the main tour guide. They put all the kayaks in the water and there was not enough for all so we didn’t get to kayak. Took a longboat to the beach. Walked the steep stairs to Blue Lagoon. That was pretty cool. Back to the boat to go to Angthong Park. Had a lovely lunch. Beautiful park. After arriving we were told that the hike to the lookout and the caves were not advisable unless you have proper shoes. No mention of that in the booking. Lastly the snorkeling was off the beach. Hardly anything to see except a few small boring fish. Water was quite cloudy. Overall a decent tour but could be so much better with a few more details before hand.Written 13 October 2024

From our friends feedback,we were encouraged to visit this place for a day trip whilst in Koh Samui. The most important consideration before going is to check on the sea conditions. It was rough on departure and the waves high. Upon arrival at the island we found the restaurant on the beach inundated with sea water ( it was high tide). It was scenic but because of the tough seas we couldn’t swim. Yes we did see some pigs and we bought food from the restaurant to feed them.Advice to take a speed boat instead of a long tail boat during the monsoon periods. I would have given a higher rating if I have gone there during better weather conditions.

My partner and I enjoyed the trip. It was fun to see the pigs on the island and the kayaking was decent. You can even go round the island if you're brave enough. The provided food was tasty and the snorkelling in the end was also good, however you do have to swim away from the boat to actually see something. A lot of people just stayed around the boat...
The only drawback was that the whole trip ended very fast, we were back at our hotel at around 3pm. A bit longer itinerary would be nice.

We got picked up at our hotel at 7:30 in the morning and drove for half an hour to the north east of Koh Samui.
There, at the harbour we had to wait for 45 minutes and then proceeded to drive all the way back to our hotel (which we passed at around 9:20) and then a little further to the southern harbour, where we then again had to wait a few minutes. For us this was rather unnecessary stress and a time waste. As we had to get up much earlier than needed and also missed breakfast.
We took off around 10:00 at the southern harbour and arrived after 15 minutes at the first destination where we could snorkel and see a lot of fish and corals. We stayed there until 11:00 and proceeded onto Pig Island. There we had time until 14:00 to eat (a rather tasty) lunch, go kayaking, and of course feed the pigs.
Overall, the trip and the people were really nice but the start was just badly organised.

This tour starts off at some rundown port where you wait around to get on the boat which is over crowded. A short stop to go snorkeling with lots of other boats then onto pig island where you sit and look at pigs for the next 4 hrs! Nice beach to have a swim. Lunch is provided if you could call it food! Dried chicken wings ( one only no extra allowed) and some pork mince. I know you don’t go on these tours for the culinary delights but this was hardly edible! Pigs were kind of cute but beware they do bite when being fed which is understandable. You do get warned about this but of course some people never listen. Would not recommend.

Nobody tells you till you get to the island that there is not to many pigs left on the island due to all the tourists touching the pigs and spreading disease or virus, the pics of happy looking pigs swimming and playing on the beach was not what we saw at all. We saw about 6-7 pigs all just waiting for food that they sell. Didn’t see any on the beach or in the water.

Staying on pig island for two hours is too much to watch a bunch of pigs and stray dogs. People were chasing baby pigs to pick them up or pet them and poor dogs are so hungry,they have to eat pig food. It is so sad .

The worst trip I have done. It is a rip off. We got taken to pig island, stayed there for 4 hours to just see pigs. That doesn’t take 4 hours. We also ate there but as there were pigs around the food it had flies swarming all over the food. It was disgusting. The weather was also not very good but we didn’t get any money back even though the conditions were not very good for kayaking or snorkelling.

Worst tour ever.
Overcrowded the boat beyond licensed capacity.
No pigs on the island.
Drove a spot with no fish.
Pick-up driver left us, even though we were traveling with a new born and a four year old, 1 KM from our house.
Do not get ripped off by this venue

We were picked up early - and were the last to be picked up, after which we waited 1 hour and 15 minutes where nothing happened. There was very little information - only about where we were going and for how long. On arrival at Ko Mat Sum, you could leave side items in the "tight" hands of the employees who smoked marijuana.... We chose not to leave our things with them, and did not feel it was particularly important that they were responsible for getting us out and home safely. It turned out that there were only 3 kayaks available so you were lucky if you got 10 minutes with one of them. The guide was nice and welcoming, but his English was somewhat lacking. The food was fine, but there were no soft drinks as advertised.

The beach was beautiful, nice place to sit and relax, then we moved onto the viewpoint which was stunning. There weren't many pigs and they didn't seem to be interested in the sea but this can't be helped. Unfortunately there was a lot of sediment in the ocean do visibility was very poor, plenty of fish but couldn't really see much else, again this can't be helped so overall a good tour and nice day out with good staff
