About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Tara M0 contributionsHad a great time and would book again well worth a visit if you are staying around this place ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Had a great time got to see loads of beautiful fish while snorkelling and the pig island was great too we had a lovely guide that had lots of knowledge about the place and spoke great English I would book againWritten August 19, 2024
- Paul G0 contributionsTERRIBLE NEVER AGAIN WARNINGSCAM SCAM SCAM **SCAM ALERT!** Terrible experience! They crammed us like sardines—60+ (I’m NOT exaggerating) on this tiny boat, just to dump us into the most pathetic snorkeling spot you can imagine. Then, as if it couldn't get worse, they dragged us to this sad little island where the so-called "pigs" look like they’ve been inbred for generations. It’s a complete tourist trap. The food? I'd rather eat my shoe. We were so desperate to escape this poo-covered nightmare that we actually paid to get off the island early. And guess what? They keep you stranded there until after 6:30 PM! Three excruciating hours of your life that you'll never get back. Avoid at all costs unless you enjoy wasting your time and money on a steaming pile of disappointment!Written August 13, 2024
- A-Bychkova0 contributionsCome for the pigs, not the snorkelingI absolutely loved spending a few hours with the pigs, they are so cute! The lunch was yummy (but be prepared to fight off many flies). I wouldn't have high hopes for the snorkelling- the water was murky and there was high coral that could scratch you, that combo made me feel uncomfortable doing that part. As long as you come for the pigs you'll have a good time though! I still recommend.Written May 23, 2024
- J2132ELnicolab0 contributionsPoorly cared for pigs and fogsI did this tour yesterday (26th of April) and didn't enjoy it one bit. I don't think these pigs are well cared for at all. One had an enormous tumour which was literally scraping the floor as he walked (see photo), pigs were fighting over the food that tourists paid to give them, the pigs and numerous dogs were desperately thirsty, and I noted as certain workers walked past the pigs they cowered or scarpered. The money paid by tourists is not going towards the welfare of these animals. I couldn't wait to get off the island and wish I could have taken all the animals with me. If you love animals then be prepared to not feel good about what you see.Written April 27, 2024
- 926henriettal0 contributionsOur best experience in Ko Samui!The half-day tour to Pig Island was definitely one of the best things we did on our one week stay in Ko Samui! We had the boat to ourselves and we enjoyed the snorkeling and swimming, although there was almost no visibility in the water at this time of the year. We also really loved the vibe on Pig Island with the animals, walking around on the beach, swimming and sipping on coconut drinks & beers by the beach! Afterwards we enjoyed a real feast with loads of food and fruit while catching the sunset. Thank you so much, our tour guide Boom for making our trip very enjoyable and memorable! <3Written December 2, 2023
- Gabriel S0 contributionsMore fun than expected!More fun than I expected! Waters around Pig Island are lovely and shallow, and there was a pretty empty beach when we got there before it started to fill up later in the visit. Our guides were great, no complaints at all!Written November 21, 2023
- FarAway463936236800 contributionsVery good tripWe did the pig island & snorkling trip. Everything was very good organised, our guide Rin and the staff was very friendly and helpful.Written November 3, 2023
- camillai7060 contributionsThe best day!!Pig island was GREAT! We had a wonderful guide who was very helpful and we were served lovely food. This is a must see experience! One of the best days out, especially for the kids as well, feeding the friendly pigs! Snorkeling was a disappointment for us. The water was not really clear that day and the fish and corals were nothing like what we experienced at Koh Lipe. But we had fun in the water and the highlight of the trip came after, when we went to Pig island. Would do it all again!Written August 14, 2023
- elinorr7230 contributionsGood Snorkeling, Skip the PigsAs soon as I booked I was notified that my trip that day was canceled due to weather, and Rob instead offered a free VIP upgrade to the next day, which was very kind. The boat was lovely, and the sea super blue. Loved snorkeling on the reefs, though it was a bit cloudy. Was disappointed and a little bit horrified by Pig Island. Our guide was very sweet but the beach consisted of very thirsty pigs, tourists chasing them with their cameras, and stray dogs who begged for food at the restaurant tables. There was lots of litter and because it was particularly hot that day, a stench of pig manure and urine from the overflowing bathrooms. Food was alright. Would have rather spent more time snorkeling and being educated on the marine wildlife. I hope they can sort out the overpopulation on Ko Mat Sum and clean it up, because it is a very beautiful island.Written July 31, 2023
- Charlotte N0 contributionsTondoVery nice staff. Very nice experience. Pig island full of tourists but you can walk away and be in a more quiet area i. 5min walkWritten July 24, 2023
- Nathanan B0 contributionsGood experienceFood was not bad, the tour guide was very nice. She was very considerate and service-minded. I gave a 4 star review because the drink and ice-cream were pricey.Written July 19, 2023
- U4132FRjasonb0 contributionsWonderful Time in SamuiRob & Tour Explore were fantastic. Rob made all the arrangements so easy and hassle free. He picked us up from our hotel, with a wonderful guide who took us to the island and snorkeling. We ended booking a few other things through Rob like fishing and the elephant spa, since our first interaction was so easy. If you're ever in Samui, I recommend just booking through Rob for any activities you want to do.Written July 16, 2023

- bizhanzh0 contributionsNice sights although overpricedAlthough overpriced, the tour does what it states, snorkeling around nice corals and spending a lot of time on the pig island. The boat engine kept breaking down between the islands.Written June 20, 2023
