Excursion en bateau à moteur dans le parc marin national d'Ang Thong au départ de Koh Phangan

Ang Thong National Marine Park delivers exactly the kind of scenery photos promise — sheer limestone cliffs rising straight out of turquoise water as our boat wove between the islands. Even under overcast skies the karst formations looked dramatic, easily some of the most striking coastline I've seen in Thailand. We stopped at one of the beaches for a swim in shallow, calm water with a handful of smaller islands scattered across the horizon — a proper "away from it all" moment. Entrance to the park is 300 THB for foreign adults (150 THB for children), usually charged separately from the tour price, so it's worth checking with your operator beforehand. Getting between islands by boat took a while — this is a full-day commitment, not a quick stop. Best suited to nature lovers, photographers, and anyone chasing that classic limestone-island shot rather than those wanting a lazy beach day.

Superb excursion to Ang Thong departing from Phangan! Excellent organization throughout the day, including hotel pickup, top-notch speedboat, great crew, professional and very attentive, with a lot of humor as well, we recommend the experience! A full day between swimming, snorkeling (brand new equipment provided), sea kayaking, and a short climb to admire the breathtaking views (the 500-meter climb up the stairs is also breathtaking 😅 - bring shoes), top-notch outing!

A very beautiful day: snorkeling, kayaking, a "sporty" walk with a magnificent viewpoint over the park. I managed to climb to the top even though I have some respiratory issues. I took my time, took breaks! For the speedboat, if you are afraid of the jolts, you just need to sit in the back. The guide was very pleasant, the meal good, the speedboat trip lasts about 40-45 minutes. I really recommend this outing.

Good day. Check in was quick. had to wait about an hour before heading to the boat which was fine as had coffee & toast. Tour was good, snorkelling not great as no visibility due to storm night before. Kayaking was good & buffet food was fine. Last island was good aside from it raining (not operators fault) but kids got to see moneys which they enjoyed. Nice coffee there. Guides very nice & professional. Would much rather half day option.

I was charged (despite my booking) an additional sum of 300 Baht as national park entry fee. I expected visitor to cover this when I paid for the tour. Tour is weather dependant. More hype tour description wise than real experience. It better to get out on the boat for the day though. I enjoyed it.

We took a trip to Ang Thong National Marine Park today, and from start to finish, it was perfect. Our driver, Top (Bus 20), collected us from our hotel right on time and transported us to the pier for check-in. The entire process was smooth, well-organised, and stress-free. Kathy, our guide on Boat 21, was fantastic. She provided clear directions, shared interesting information throughout the day, and ensured everyone knew what was happening at each stage of the tour. The snorkelling was great fun, the kayaking was enjoyable, and the beaches were beautiful. The staff were extremely helpful when embarking and disembarking in a variety of situations, always professional, polite, and attentive. Drinks were offered regularly throughout the day, which helped keep everyone well hydrated. Kathy, the captain, and the entire crew provided excellent service and made the experience even more enjoyable. Lunch was served buffet-style on one of the islands and was delicious, with a good variety of options available. At the end of the day, Top was there waiting for us again. He guided us back to our bus and safely returned us to our hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed the day and would highly recommend this tour. Thank you to Kathy, the captain, Top, and the entire team for such a memorable experience.

The guides were great, and the breakfast and lunch were perfectly fine for a day trip. There was plenty of water that was distributed repeatedly. The two hikes have many steep metal steps on the first one, so they are also manageable with flip-flops. The second ascent consists of very uneven stone steps. Flip-flops work here as well, but sneakers are also completely sufficient. We would do the excursion again, especially for the breathtaking view and the monkeys sitting in the trees.

Nice boat trip to beautiful places for swimming and hiking.

Well organised so there is no crowding at the stops. Friendly and helpful guides, good equipment and lovely food. A nice variety of activities.

Notice: Disappointing experience - Rigid service and lack of user friendliness Note: 2/5 Despite the aesthetic beauty of the traditional boat, our private excursion for 5 people was a great disappointment. While basic logistical commitments were met (on time for hotel transfers), the human and tourist experience was not commensurate with a private service. The negatives: • Reception and attitude: An extremely cold captain and reluctant to communicate as soon as we arrived. • Lack of flexibility: We explicitly asked to avoid ultra-tourist areas to discover quieter corners. The captain refused to adapt the route, leading us exactly where all the other groups were. It felt like a "shuttle" rather than a private ride. • Lunch arrangements: At lunch we were dropped off in a port without any charm, unwelcoming and without shade. Instead of a picnic on a deserted beach (as we had experienced on other excursions, especially in the West Indies), we were handed a basin of rice and asked to eat further, in full sun, without the possibility of swimming. • Interest of the visit: Overall very low, without any explanation or sharing from the attendant. The positives: • Snorkeling: The timing of the dive was pleasant. • Fruit: The fresh fruit, carefully prepared by the captain, was excellent. Unfortunately, this was our only positive moment of the day. Conclusion: We do not recommend this agency if you are looking for customization and user-friendliness. A service that satisfies the bare minimum without any sense of hospitality
