The tour day
Morning Pick-up
Jump into our comfy AC-minibus around 7:00 a.m! We’ll swing by your hotel and head over to the pier in Bangrak (North/East Samui). We’ll pick up some other fellow explorers along the way, so it’s a great time to get into the island mood.
Setting Sail
We hit the waves around 9:00 AM. Enjoy a breezy 90-minute cruise to the beautiful Koh Nang Yuan island.
Koh Nang Yuan
The first stop is at the well-known island Koh Nang Yuan with the famous postcard motif. The following 90 minutes are at your free disposal to organize the stay individually for you. Optional to climb up on the top of the famous viewpoint, relax on the beach, or swim in the shallow warm waters.
Lunch
Around 12:00 p.m., it's time to eat something and fortify yourself for the rest of the adventure day. A deliciously prepared traditional Thai lunch is already waiting for you in a nice small restaurant on the neighboring island Koh Tao. Right on the white sandy beach with an unforgettable sea view, you will have enough time to eat.
Koh Tao
We will anchor at the best 2 snorkeling spots for each 40-50 minutes. The underwater world is unique with intact coral reefs and a wide variety of sea creatures. You will get the snorkeling equipment free of charge to explore the diverse species of sea creatures on calm seas with a clear view.
Return to Samui
At 3:30 PM, we start our cruise back home. Lean back, feel the sea breeze, and watch the sea shift through a dozen shades of blue as the stunning island views drift past. With calm seas, we’ll be back at the pier around 5:00 PM
We bring you back
We’ll grab you from the arrival pier in a nice, cool AC minibus and get you right back to your place. We'll be dropping everyone off one by one along the way, so just sit back and enjoy the ride!

We had a great time! Everything was well organized (transport, boat, food). We visited a beautiful island in the morning. We were happy that we brought our own snorkling gear as we did some great snorkling ourselves at the islandstop. In the afternoon we had the snorkling stop from the boat. We saw a lot of different fishes, very beautiful. Unfortunately we couldn't go to …

This tour company somehow manages to perfectly orchestrate multiple tours with innumerable people and keep everything 100% organized and clear. Koh Tao was really beautiful underwater and Koh Nang Yuan was pretty restrictive but worth seeing. I was impressed with the snorkeling opportunities at all sites. The crew were attentive and kind (and very nurturing to the one …
- Pierre Couplet★★★★★
Very good prestation. The crew is very efficient and kind. They sent to me later pictures of me snorkeling at Koh Tao. The island of Koh Nang Yuan is marvellous. I climbed to the point of view, offering a very beautiful view around. One member of the crew took again a picture of me on the top. I recommend this excursion and Koh Samui Tours.
- Michal Baran★★★★★
Day trip to Koh Tao and Koh Nang Yuan was great. Communication with Koh Samui Tour was excelent. Shuttle and boat ride were smooth. Small breakfast was served before the boat ride. We had two stops for snorkeling, tasty lunch at great spot and the top of the day was beach and view point on Koh Nang Yuan. Excelent day. Go for it.

Der Trip mit dem Schnellboot zur Insel war etwas anstrengend aber die Mühe hat sich gelohnt. Die Schnochelreviere waren toll . Leider hatte ich einen Unfall - aber die Crew hat sich toll gekümmert mich ins Krankenhaus gefahren und auch die Rechnung bezahlt ( Versicherung war ja dabei ) wirklich super nett und vorbildlich
- Jean MAHE★★★★★
Our second tour with Kohsamuitours was as wonderful as the first one. My daughter and myself will keep in memory for ever the beautiful fishes watched during the two snorkeling sessions as well as the view from the high point of Koh Nang Yuan. Thanks to all the Kohsamuitours team including pick up, lunch and boat 😎😎😎
