Aventura Snorkel VIP: Koh Tao & Nangyuan desde Phangan

La excursión merece la pena 100%, es más diría que si estáis por la zona es imprescindible. Para en varias islas, en el snorkel vimos tortugas, corales, peces, una pasada!

Realmente la excursión se centra en 2 puntos (Koh nangyuan y lighthouse). Eso si, el tiempo que tuvimos fue muy bueno y el guía muy amigable. El problema de la excursión que hacer snorkel en sitios donde hay mucha gente o donde ya ha habido gente es que el agua está muy movida y no está tan clara para verlo bien. No obstante fue una bonita excursion

We had a great time exploring Koh Tao and Koh Nangyuan on this well-organized tour. The scheduling was super precise, and the managing team was friendly, professional, and very helpful throughout the day. We snorkeled at three different spots—while the underwater sights weren’t particularly thrilling, the water was reasonably clear and the guides made sure everyone felt safe and supported. The real highlight was the overall experience: cruising between islands, soaking in the stunning views of Koh Nangyuan and Koh Tao, and enjoying plenty of time in the water. It’s a fun, laid-back adventure that’s perfect for travelers looking for a scenic and easygoing day out. Highly recommended for the views and the vibe, even if you’re not chasing world-class snorkeling.

The trip had been rescheduled due to high swell so we expected better conditions. The crossings were so rough that most people vomited and several left with sore backs,necks and headaches. It was altogether dangerous and unpleasant. Snorkelling was ok but one area most of the coral was dead

It was wonderful. But be aware that im the rainy season the trip by boat is very challenging and a lot of people were sick. Nonetheless, it is great!

Excellent tour, well organised and with a good team on board of the speed boat. Very good stops for snorkelling! Recommend for everyone!

Before the tour, I read a review that said, "Not for the faint hearted," and thought they were being ridiculous. However, this boat trip is definitely not for the faint hearted. The crew are great, the snorkeling is amazing, and the beaches were incredible. The journey back is hilariously choppy but I'd suggest you take a sickness tablet if you suffer at all... They just smash you into each and every wave for an hour and a half. If you're an OAP, don't do it. All in all, had a great time.

It was a fun day. Everything was well organized and the guides were kind and helpful. The boat ride was fine and the scenery is beautiful.

5 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.

How much snorkeling do you like to do? I took this Koh Tao tour with Lomlakhirin. The employees are very nice. But Lomlak goes to 2 snorkeling sites, then spends 3 hours on Ko Nang Yuan. Another company (Mr. Tu's) goes to 4 dive sites and spends 90 minutes on Ko Nang Yuan. My one criticism with Lomlakhirin is the food was not good on Ko Nang Yuan. There were few vegetarian options. They only served Som Tam, and rice with steamed vegetables. They did not spend money on a good restaurant. They ate lunch on Ko Nang Yuan. Mr. Tu's Ko Tao tour went to a much better restaurant that offered Pad Thai, Vegetable spring rolls with sauce, Tofu, plus deserts and more choices for meat eaters. I was looking forward to lunch, so that's why the basic, lackluater buffet offered on Ko Nang Yuan was a huge disappointment. If I took another tour, I would avoid Lomlakhirin because they went to the cheapest restaurant they could find.
