You can clearly see the coral reefs and fish during both snorkeling trips, but the boat trip is too long. If you don’t plan to go into the water, please don’t choose this trip.

this is a must try! Seawalking is easy even for someone who doesn't know how to swim. there's oxygen inside the tank and you can even wear glasses. they will help you with it and even take videos and pictures. Island hopping is a great experience as they have a professional photographer to take photos and drone videos of you. end of the day, they will send these to you. lunch is good but some people use their utensils to scoop the dishes and soup, really not hygienic. snorkeling is fun too, there will be someone to standby and help those who can't swim. overall experience is very good, Vietnamese ppl are so kind, sincere and friendly. first stop is a pearl factory but they don't force you to buy. good to understand how they cultivate pearl.

Use this pass to visit three popular attractions and it also includes meal coupons. The meal coupons can be used at Phu Quoc Pearl Amusement Park, which is really worth the money. The only troublesome thing is that you cannot use the QR-code provided by Klook to enter the attraction. You have to wait for the local manufacturer to send a new QR-code before you can enter the attraction. Once I received it after 7 o'clock in the morning, and once I received it the day before departure. You must make sure there is an available network at all times. Regarding the use of QR codes, it is recommended that Klook describe it clearly in the product description.

The tour guide Dam was very helpful and provided a lot of help. The itinerary was also very fulfilling. Lunch was okay ~ Haha, I suggest you bring more bath towels or towels. The wind on the boat will be a bit strong, so be sure to apply sunscreen!

The itinerary was well designed and my child and I enjoyed the trip. I paid for the child to participate in the underwater walk at his own expense. Although he was a little nervous, it was also a special experience.

Clear blue sea, lots of fish. The tour guide named Hien is cute, willing to support guests anytime, anywhere. Caring about the health of each group of guests throughout the program. The boat driver is friendly. Lunch is okay, ordering drinks is 10% off. Seats at Hon May Rut Trong have free beach chairs. Reclining chairs are 50% off, only 35k per chair. Many virtual check-in locations on the island. There is a flycam for taking photos and videos for free included in the tour.
