Why people love Hong Island

The entire tour is very well taken care of, so as long as you can keep to the meeting time at each point, there is no problem. Coffee and other drinks are provided at the tour meeting point, so you can use them while waiting for the departure. Lunch is a bento box. The only drink provided during the tour is bottled water.

A really great activity for family. The only thing I would have wanted was more opportunity to snorkel in open waters, instead of a lagoon or at the beach. Simple lunch but lots of opportunity to play at the beach and relax. All in all, a great day.

Don’t hesitate to book this trip: you get picked up and dropped off, the team do their utmost to provide a day to remember. Snacks before departure, water, lunch, fresh fruit, cool wipes were provided. We loved visiting the many islands, the canoe experience, lunch at Ko Panyi which is a floating island with a beautiful mosque and football field! We got some great pics on James Bond Island. Swimming at the end of the day was glorious at the fine white sands of Naka Noi.

the tour guide is what makes this. we were hosted by Sila and Bam, who were caring and humourous making this a very enjoyable experience. note December/jan is peak season and it was very packed despite only being for Hong Island. the food was average but you go for the experiences, and the access to unique locations. recommend bringing sea sickness pills

nice view, nice scene, nice itinerary. but, i would have to say, my unforgettable experience and memories, are sealed in my mind because of the great team. Just imagine, if u work as a tour guide for many many years, doing the same thing everyday, visiting the same spots everyday, sometimes, they even have to due with uncontrollable challenges, such as the weather, the covid, or some customers' unreasonable demands and sometimes bad manners, the tour guide, Mr Chinu (although i wouldn't be able to spell his full name), have achieved outstanding and extraordinary passion and greeting, and caring to accommodate everyone's needs to the best he could, with his teammates. yes, I might forget james bond island one day, but I won't forget I once had a great Time in thailand with this tour guide and his teammates' great effort. I have finished this day tour possibly 3 weeks ago? and I have come back to my country for few days already, but, I just reopened this day tour and I knew that Mr Chinu and his teammates' passion and effort, shoulde always be appreciated. Proud of you all. You are the real James Bond of the island!! (**Mr Chinu is a straight guy, he tried to entertain the whole boat of customers by showing muai thai boxing moves, and, also putting make up and dance on the boat, during the long distance sailing time.. that's why in the first Picture, he looks like a ladyboy.. what a sacrifice & great effort from him). Apart from himself, his two little girl teammates, also had a good selection of music and dancing skills~ they are both lovely and please keep your passion too~
