The tour day
Pick-up / Morning or afternoon
Jump into our comfy AC-minibus for your desired program between 08:00-08:30am or 12:30-1:00pm. We’ll swing by your hotel and head over to the pier in Thong Krut (South Samui). No other passengers get on! Your transfer always stays private!
Setting Sail
The ship leaves around 9:00 a.m. or 2:00 p.m. and arrives at the first spot after an interesting 25-minute boat trip under normal sea condition.
Koh Tan
We will anchor in the front of the neighboring island, Koh Tan. Because of the still intact coral reef, the underwater world is very special here. You will get the snorkeling equipment free of charge to explore the diverse species of sea creatures on calm seas with a clear view
Pig Island
After a short crossing from Koh Tan, we reach the nearby neighboring island. Welcome to the beautiful island of Koh Mudsum. Here the world stands still because there is still no civilization, running water, or electricity. Amazingly, there are a few woolly pigs here on the white sand beach, like in the Bahamas. Enough time to relax or swim.
Return to Samui
As soon everyone is back on board, we ship back to Koh Samui. The crossing is very beautiful, as the different island scenery will leave an unforgettable impression. Different sea creatures have often been spotted here. After a crossing of about 20-minute, we are safely back at the pier where we started.
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. During the outward journey, no other passengers get on! Your transfer always stays private!

This tour was excellent and great value for money. The hotel pick-up at two locations for our group of four was on time and a comfortable van. Having our own boat was also great, we beat a lot of the crowds and could enjoy each location without having to worry about other guests. All the staff were very friendly, the snorkelling was fun and the beach lunch was excellent - …

The tour started with a private pickup from our hotel in the north in a nice luxury toyota van. Then we, family of 4, were assigned to a private longtail boat heading to pig island. This was key for us to arrive before boats packed of other visitors arrived, so we had almost one hour of privacy in Koh Madsum. By the time the multitude arrived, we were heading to Koh Tan …

Bik (sp?) took us out on a trip with no one else which we paid a bit more for and it was great. He was amazing with our kids which meant we got to enjoy the island and snorkelling much more than we would do otherwise. I’d ask for him if you go. Remember you pay by cash when you’re there and you may want to tip a few people along the way. Snorkels provided but we brought …

Wir haben als Familie eine Privat-Tour mit einem Longtail-Boot gebucht. Vom pünktlichen Transfer im komfortablen Bus bis zum superfreundlichen Guide ‚Pet’ war alles wunderbar. Pig Island ist zwar überlaufen, aber es sind genug Schweine für alle da 😅 Danach noch Schnorcheln, außerdem gabs genug kühle Getränke und frisches Obst an Bord. Sehr zu empfehlen!
- Normen Becker★★★★★
Wir haben die private Tour gebucht um einfach alles genießen zu können und ja, dass haben wir.... Von der Abholung bis zur Heimfahrt war alles super und hat wunderbar geklappt. Wir hatten das komplette Zeitfenster um zu bestimmen wie lange wir wo bleiben möchten. Einfach mega entspannt 😍😍 wir haben ohne Guide gebucht.
- Grit Auert★★★★★
Von der ersten bis zur letzten Minute der Tour war alles super geplant und einfach nur perfekt. Lars und sein Team waren Mega freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir hatten eine Menge Spaß und ich würde jederzeit diese Tour wieder buchen. Es war unser schönstes Erlebnis auf Samui.
