A fun day exploring Ko Samui - We took a full day custom tour of Ko Samui is September of 2024. The entire experience from booking to drop off at our cruise ship was smooth and seamless. Our driver/guide was knowledgeable and spoke very good English. He made excellent suggestions for lunch and places to get souvenirs. Our day of sightseeing in Ko Samui was a real treat. I would happily recommend Mr Samui.

Ideal trip to see Samui - Did the 4 hour trip, picked on time and guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Providing us with welcome cold water after our stops. Due to lack of rain we couldn’t do the waterfalls which we all smoked as on way back we had torrential downpour that I am sure would get the water going at the waterfall with the last of our journey completed coming through flash floods, but our driver/ guide drove sensibly. Done interesting sites and think this allows you to get a good view of the island so would recommend especially the private element meaning great comfort in the nice vehicles.

Inspiring private island tour with German guide and luxury minibus - Really very relaxed and interesting tour with a good mix of culture and sights quite privately with our small family of four people. We were picked up and driven around by a Fakrer and a guide on time in a very luxurious minibus (there would also have fit 8), always providing cold water and after a market visit also cleaning and refreshing towels. Our guide spoke good German and was well acquainted with the temples in particular due to his own intermittent personal life as a monk: we even interacted directly with a monk and were equipped as a family with blessed bracelets and blessed with sacred water - which was a special and inspiring experience in itself. In total, at the end of 10 am-4 pm, there were four temples, an ice break at the very beautiful Silverbeach, the grandmother/grandfather rock, a waterfall incl. elephant feeding and a local market visit with the opportunity to taste a lot, as well as an hour of personal time incl. lunch in Nathon, whereby we could freely choose the focus at the beginning. We can recommend the tour and the provider unconditionally!

Great tour with Mr. Thai! - We had an amazing private tour on Koh Samui with Mr. Thai. He’s friendly, flexible, great with kids, and really goes the extra mile. From temples to viewpoints and local experiences, everything was perfectly arranged. Highly recommended!

4 hours, German speaking, private sightseeing tour - We had booked a private 4 hour tour and our likable driver Goy took us superbly from sight to sight. She explained a lot, took our wishes into account and did a great job. Goy speaks very good German which also made the tour an experience for our children.

Simply Amazing - We used Mr Samui for airport pick up and drop off and also had an amazing 6 hour island tour with Mr Thailand who was funny, charming and Knowledable. We ended up using them instead os taxi's as they charged us the same but their vans are like a limousine. We cannot thank both Mr Thailand and Mr Pot. Koh Samui is an amazing island and what a first-class company that helped to make it very special. Would recommend in a heartbeat. Thank you

Wonderful Tour - Overall great experience. Our tour driver/guide picked us up promptly at the scheduled time. I had communicated prior to the tour sites my friend and I were interested in visiting which was relayed to our driver. Our driver was wonderful. She was very friendly and interactive as well as knowledgeable about the sites and the island in general. Highly recommend.

Good - On time, punctual driver, i liked that he had wet towels and cold water since its scorching hot. The car is tracked so that you feel safe. The tour was okay, i chose what i wanted to see but i felt a bit bored it was mostly temples minimal nature.
