| This is such a diverse tour of which I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. You get to experience the hustle and bustle of Bangkok, including visiting the Grand Palace and shopping down the Koh San Road. The overnight train to Surat Thani is a great experience if a little tiring.Nothing that a Thai beer or Whiskey couldn't help with. Koh Sok National Park is beautiful. The walks through the jungle were great, finishing off with swimming in cold water falls. The lodge that we stayed in was run by a family who were all so lovely and enjoyed sitting down with us in the evenings.Then onto the beautiful islands. Koh Phangan, Koh Tao then Koh Samui. Salad beach in Koh Phangan was my favourite place we stayed. Hotel was great and the beach was pure paradise. The snorkelling tours on both the small islands were amazing. We even got a chance to see sharks in Koh Tao. Finally Koh Samui. You have to go to the Starz ladyboy cabaret show and to the Ark for dinner on the beach. Plenty of time to shop too! What I really liked about this tour was the fact that even though there's a lot to take in it still feels really relaxing. We had free days on each of the islands which is great for chilling out on the beach. Andy our tour guide was great. He couldn't have done enough for us and knew so much about his country and its history. I loved my first experience of Thailand and will definately go back! The people are lovely, food is fantastic and the country is beautiful. You won't regret it if you book this tour! My tips for the tour: Take a hat for the grand palace in bangkok. It was 40 degrees when we were there! Eye Mask for the train as they keep the lights on. Leech socks for Koh Sok trekking. Something light (but not see through) to cover your shoulders when visiting temples. |
