I applied because I wanted to go to Railay Beach, and it was great. It was a leisurely trip where I could feel the ocean emotionally while riding a long-tail boat and resting while stopping by several islands. The snorkeling masks were in good sanitary condition, and the lunch boxes provided were delicious. The guides were also very friendly. However, it was a pity that I could not see tropical fish at the snorkeling site.

Great experience with the team with on time pickup and drop. The team made sure to cover all the spots in detail. Although the food served could be better, rest was fabulous.

Very nice trip, Most stops were great. Shnorkling location was changed and there wasn’t a lot to see. BBQ dinner was fine but not great. Bioluminescent was a really unique experience that I glad I have
