This was an amazing trip. The guide Aud was very, very knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. The day was jammed packed full and very good value for money. Lunch on the floating village of Panyee was a wonderful experience. A big up to the company too for commiting to providing the tour for us even although it was only myself and my husband that day due to it being the beginning of the wet season and very quiet, they still honoured or booking, our own VIP private tour! Also excellent correspondence throughout from start to finish. Would highly recommend this tour, it was the highlight of our holiday.

Brilliant day out! Our guide was chatty and knowledgeable about all the places we visited, The canoeing in caves was epic, having to lie down in the canoe to enter the caves because of tide levels. The floating village is amazing, we had a beautiful lunch there and time to wonder about. The monkeys!!!!!! What can I say apart from they’re cheeky and cute, there is a stall to buy fruit and nuts to feed the monkeys for 200baht. Worth every penny!!

We had a wonderful day. Ran, our guide from Green Andaman Travel was superb. His knowledge of Thai history and culture was second to none. As for the trip, the bay is one of the most beautiful places in the world and the lunch at the floating village was incredible. Having travelled extensively we have have the privilege of lots of guided tours and this was one of the best, ,.
