We had a tour just for us...which surprised us positively as it was not cancelled. Everything was organized tip-top. There were great impressions and it was not crowded that day. It's worth the low season.
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We are truly happy to hear that you enjoyed the private tour experience and that everything was well organized for you. We sincerely appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again for another memorable experience in the future. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
We went to 5 places on this trip, all very beautiful especially the Hong lagoon kayak trip through the caves. We arrived at the port as scheduled but we didn't leave the port until nearly an hour later. The staff acknowledged that they were running a bit late but proceeded to talk through the itinerary in detail. Each place was jam packed with tourists. There were a few really inconsiderate, selfish and disrespectful tourists in the group, not listening to Moo Moo our tour leader, asking to bring alcohol to Panyee island which is a Muslim community, smoking on the speedboat in front of other people. Moo Moo our tour leader was great, he was charismatic and energetic but you can tell that the rude tourists were wearing him down too in the end. Also we informed the company in advance of our vegan and gluten free (coeliac disease) dietary requirements and unfortunately we didn't have a great lunch experience like other people. We were unsure of what we could eat as there were no dietary information next to the food. It took a while to be told that the vegetable stir fry was safe for us to eat with no soy sauce which we had with rice. Fortunately we were not ill. We were brought out a plate of salad each but with salad sauce which likely contained egg which we didn't eat. We went on an island hopping tour from Krabi and we were given 2 vegan & GF dishes in separate tupperware just for us to have which made us feel very safe. Overall we had a nice time and feel the tour could be improved if there was less time waiting around in the beginning and if more effort was put into lunch options for those with dietary requirements.
Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beautiful locations, especially Hong Lagoon, and we truly appreciate your kind words about Moo Moo, we’re very proud of him. We sincerely apologize for the delayed departure and for the confusion regarding your vegan and gluten-free meal. Dietary requirements should be handled more clearly and carefully, and we will improve our coordination and food labeling to ensure guests feel safe and well looked after. Thank you again for your constructive comments. We’re grateful that overall you still had a nice time, and your feedback will help us improve the experience for future guests. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again and provide an even better experience next time. Best Regards, Oh-Hoo Team
Really great day out seeing some beautiful islands only accessible by sea. Nice to go on the little canoes too. Lunch was a bit cold but I am not a big fan of buffet for this reason

This was such a great experience - thank you, Ken and team, for making this day such a highlight! This trip was very well organised and the day was structured to avoid the mega crowds. Going on a speedboat meant more time to enjoy some down time.

Ken and the team will be thrilled to know they helped make your day so special. Thank you again for your kind words. We hope to welcome you back for another fantastic adventure in the future.

Simple one of the best trips I did in Thailand. The island is somewhat small but quite unique and offers great sights there and on the trip to and from. I also visited the floating village on my trip that offered another unique experience of how people live. The kayaking was also great and a local in on the kayak doing the paddling. Other all I would recommend this as a must do while in Thailand.
