The Thai Royal Family don't just holiday anywhere – they holiday in the Similan Islands. And on this exclusive speed boat experience, you'll discover why. Zooming between palm-fringed beaches and granite rocks, you'll get the chance to snorkel the reefs of Thailand's premier marine reserve before a tasty lunch beachside.We'll kick off the adventure by casting off from Khao Lak. Tearing through the sea, breeze blowing in your face, you'll make your way towards Similan Islands National Marine Park. As Thailand's number one diving spot, it's the ideal place for some snorkelling. Plunge into the waters here and you can expect to see all manner of marine life – from clownfish and manta rays to over 500 species of coral.Drying off, you'll head to a hideaway beach where a light lunch is served. Then, after some time relaxing on the sand, you'll do the trip in reverse.

Maden til frokost var helt kold og gummi agtig- virkelig ikke hvad man forventer når man bruger over 800 kr pr person for en oplevelse. Derudover var man alt for længe på den ø hvor man spiste frokost og kunne snildt have halveret tiden. Et par flere snorkleture kunne være godt, og så måske også nogle steder med levende koraler( alle koraler var døde de steder man snorklede) Det gode ting var, personalet virkelig var dygtige og servicemindede

Vi havde ikke set at turen var rykkes 50 min så vi sad og ventede ret længe, men det er vores egen skyld. Det dog være rart hvis det også blev opdateret på appen. Da vi ankom til havnen var det Max kaotisk, og guiden snakkede lidt for hurtigt til hans niveau af engelsk. Dag var han så sjov og rigtigt sød. Da vi kom ud på båden var det så fedt, vær klar på en våd dag, det var fantastisk at snorkle, og der var overskud til dårligere svømmere, med livs veste og hjælp fra guiden. Turen tog 11 timer.

Upplevelsen var fantastisk såg en sköldpadda när jag snorklade. Mycket folk på öarna . Och maten kunde vara bättre brukar vara buffé men man fick en lite matlåda. Fanns kiosk på ön så handlade något att äta där .

Bra och trevlig personal, mycket fint resmål. Nackdelen var det stora antal båtar och människor som var på plats samtidigt. Men helheten var ändå att det var värt pengar och att vara bort hela dagen. Mvh Jimmy

Vi var afsted mere end 11 timer og der står 4-8 timer på fakturaen. Det sidste stop efter frokost kunne godt kortes ned og så behøver der ikke være mad ved returnering når man gerne bare vil hjem. Guider var super gode også til at tage sig af mere usikre svømmere

The similan islands are definetly the best out of all of them, never seen such clear blue waters. Snorkelling was amazing lots of fish and coral to see. Fin/phun I can’t remember how to spell her name was a really good guide she had to translate in Thai Chinese and English. We were the only English speakers on the boat so we had our own personal translations after the Thai and Chinese. The food we had was also very good the best food we have had on an island tour so far. Enjoyable day

Sevärt, vackert ställe! Behöver inte vara orolig att vara törstig eller hungrig då man regelbundet fick mat och dryck under dagen. Kom ihåg solkräm eller ha på täckande kläder då man bränner sig lätt. Vi smörjde in oss regelbundet i spf 50 men brände oss väldigt mycket ändå. Trevlig personal som erbjöd sig ta bilder ifall man ville det. Fickpengar behövdes inte till annat än dricks till personalen på båten eller om man ville köpa glass. Rekommenderar verkligen!

The title says 4 x islands; 2 x beaches and 2 x snorkel however the times at each are not even. Snorkel in total was less than 1 hour (which is why I went) whilst the beach (and lunch) was more than 3 hours. Lunch was mostly fish and flies! I was told the speedboat would be 1hr but it was 1hr20 each way; squished like sardines this made some people Ill. The description said 4-8hrs and it was 9.5hrs. All in all an expensive beach and lunch with HUNDREDS of strangers. Disappointing.

Välorganiserad utflykt med väldigt omtänksamma och trevliga guider. Det är många besökare på Similan island och kan upplevas lite trångt när man snorklar eller är på stranden. Trots det var det en väldigt fin utflykt. Fantastiskt vatten och vi såg fiskar i regnbågens alla färger, en liten havssköldpadda och badade i kristallklart vatten.

Die Stops 2x Schnorcheln und 2x Baden waren sehr gut aufgeteilt. Alles war gut organisiert und die Guides sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Natürlich ziehen diese Orte viele Touristen an und man ist definitiv nicht allein vor Ort. Zeitweise war es uns deutlich zu voll (am Aussichtspunkt), aber das lässt sich wohl nicht verhindern. Das Essen war lecker (Hähnchen und Meeresfrüchte). Es gab genügend Getränke.

Trip was lovely. Just concerned about the amount of plastic used on the trip. Compostable bags would be better. So much plastic was in the sea at the lunch location.

Smuk tur, dygtige og venlige guider - og tilpas afsat tid de forskellige steder. Dog var det en lidt kaotisk start på havnen med rigtig mange mennesker og svært helt at finde ud af, hvem, hvad og hvor - man skulle holde sig til. Meget fint arrangeret med morgenmad inden afgang og let snack ved ankomst retur til havnen igen.

För mycket människor på samma ställe samtidigt! Snorklande blir otrevligt, trångt, du stöter jämnt samman med andra. Förbättring! Färre båtar samtidigt på samma ställe! Också samlingsplatsen var stökig med så många samtidigt. Man förlorar känslan av natur.

The 2 guides Rami & Stefani were amazing and the whole trip from start to finish was excellent. Beautiful islands and beaches to see. My only gripe would be that lunch at the restaurant was absolutely disgusting and you've really got to have a strong stomach to even look at it and i can only compare it to what a prison dinner in the 60s may have looked like but I'm not sure that's down to TUI. Whilst on the boat soft drinks and water were given out at will.
