Koh Samui city tour - Absolutely great day with friends. I made a mistake on the booking it for the wrong day. I noticed when we were waiting for driver. Anantara hotel staff were extremely helpful to speak to Viator ((UK) ang local provider who managed to arrange our tour at last minute and change it - so great that they picked up 45 min later

Don't just see Thailand from a tourist perspective. - We had a driver and a guide with a perfect car for the tour.
They were friendly and calmly showed us everything and catered to our wishes. Wir hatten ein super Essen und viel von der Kultur in Thailand kennengelernt. We laughed a lot together and had a lot of fun, for example when feeding the elephants bananas.
It was one of our best trips.
Thank you.

Very good tour guide in Koh Samui - Our tour guide, called Kittichai gave us a very great time to tour Koh Samui today! We had an air-conditioned spacious vehicle, free bottles of water and a good lunch in a good restaurant facing the sea. The driver was good and drove safely. We had an enjoyable time in Koh Samui. The guide also took a lot of photos for us. Many thanks to him!

Beautiful ko Samui - The tour guide was the most knowledgeable I have ever had on a tour the place where we eat lunch many movie stars have eaten there and it was delicious. We went to every attraction. Ko Samui had. Again I can’t stress the knowledge this man had it was a great trip. Another thing about the tour guide that was his occupation on so much about the culture and Buddhism.

The best tour guide on the island is Kittichai!!! - Our guide was the absolute best! He took tons of photos and created a video of our day and sent to us after the tour. He was kind, answered all my questions and went at a pace we were comfortable with. I cannot say enough positive things about our guide and driver.

Private - 6 Hour Best of Samui City Tour Including Lunch - Our private trip was just perfect all round! The organization and communication are excellent. Everything went smoothly and exactly as we hoped. We learned a lot about the country and history during the trip and felt very comfortable at all times. The warmth, friendliness and pleasant atmosphere made the experience special.
We are more than satisfied and can heartily recommend it. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!

One day in Samui - A great private tour of Ko Samui. The tour description is exactly what we did. My wife's recent knee issues concerned us about her participation but the tour provider alleviated our concerns. Everyone was accommodating. The tour guide, Cindy was great. Highly recommend.

Good but not great. - They were somewhat flexible (e.g. traded lunch for visit to the elephant sanctuary with extra payment) but charged extra once they realized I was from a cruise ship. Generally a good itinerary, but it was hindered by the limited English capabilities of the guide. Driver/car was very good.
