Reisroute
Begin uw reis in het zuidwesten van Koh Samui, waar we de pittoreske Five Islands passeren. Deze eilanden herbergen een mysterieus en zelden gezien fenomeen, het oogsten van vogelnesten.
Onze eerste stop in de archipel van Ang Thong Marine Park is ook de meest afgelegen en magische plek, exclusief voor onze tour. Maak een begeleide zeekajaktocht langs de kustlijn om de dramatische kliffen, kalkstenen eilanden, grotten, magische tunnels en een geheime lagune te verkennen. Of spring op onze bijboot die de kajaks vergezelt.
Vaar noordwaarts voorbij de wateren van het Marine Park, naar Koh Wao, waar u de beste snorkellocaties vindt.
Als we verder naar het noorden varen, bereiken we de Ko Wao-eilandengroep, die enkele van de beste locaties biedt om het levendige tropische rif te verkennen. Het wordt beschouwd als een van de top 20 snorkellocaties in Thailand. Wij zijn het enige niet-speedbootschip dat deze bestemming bereikt. We zullen de optimale locatie selecteren, afhankelijk van de omstandigheden, om ervoor te zorgen dat u de best mogelijke onderwaterreis hebt. Na een korte veiligheidsbriefing zal onze bemanning je voorzien van complete snorkeluitrusting en je meenemen op een begeleide onderwatertour om een geweldig leven in zee te zien. Niet-zwemmers en jonge kinderen zijn van harte welkom om in ons drijvend vlot te stappen, waarmee u het tropische rif kunt bekijken vanuit de veiligheid van een vlot.
We gaan terug naar het mariene park en passeren Ko Lao Yu om van het landschap te genieten. Op dit punt bieden we u een heerlijke lunchbuffet terwijl u langs de meest interessante kalkstenen eilanden van het Ang Thong-park reist, die uit de zee oprijzen als dramatische rotswanden en bizarre rotsformaties.
Koh Thong Thaeng is een van de grotere eilanden in het Marine Park, en een schoonheid om te aanschouwen.
Vervolgens passeren we Ko Wa Noi op weg naar Ko Mae Ko om de Blue Lagoon te zien.
Als we naar het zuiden gaan, passeren we ook Ko Sam Sao of het eiland met drie zusters, met zijn opmerkelijke natuurstenen brug die zich uitstrekt in de zee, met schone witte zandstranden.
Ko Mae Ko is de plek waar je de beroemde "Blue Lagoon" vindt, de inspiratie voor het boek van Alex Garland en de latere film "The Beach". Ook bekend als het "Emerald Lake", noemen de locals het "Talay Nai", wat "in zee" betekent en het wordt algemeen beschouwd als het hoogtepunt van het Ang Thong Marine Park. We zijn de laatste boot die Ko Mae Ko mag bezoeken, wat betekent dat we geen andere georganiseerde reizen ontmoeten.
Hier kunt u besluiten om naar het uitkijkpunt te klimmen of te ontspannen op het afgelegen strand. Beklim de steile trappen langs smalle ravijnen om een panoramisch uitzicht op de 42 eilanden van het park te bereiken. Zodra we de top hebben bereikt, ga je naar de andere kant om het volledig ingesloten zoutwatermeer van dichterbij te bekijken, dat naast zijn schoonheid ook fungeert als een natuurlijke kwekerij voor allerlei zeedieren.
Als we teruggaan naar Ko Samui, komen we ook langs Ko Wua Talap, het hoofdkwartier van het Marine Park.
Vaar langs Phaluai Island, een van de weinige bewoonde eilanden in het Ang Thong Marine Park, de thuisbasis van een kleine gemeenschap van "zee-zigeuner" vissers, de oorspronkelijke mensen die zich in de Samui-archipel vestigden. Geniet van de schilderachtige cruise terug naar Ko Samui, koel af met een paar drankjes en een bananensplit op het dek, of neem een duik in onze jacuzzi. Op de meeste dagen zul je een prachtig uitzicht op de zonsondergang omarmen die je een leven lang bijblijft.

It was a great trip. All the staff on board were super. The food, which was freshly prepared, was very delicious. We were a total of 28 guests and were actually the only boat during the activities. I can only recommend this tour. The price is worth it.
Thank you so much, Holgert, for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you had such a fantastic day aboard the Red Dragon and that our crew helped make your experience so enjoyable. They work hard to provide warm, attentive service throughout the day, and your kind words will mean a great deal to them. We're especially pleased that you enjoyed the food. We pay great attention to dining during our tours, with our chefs preparing every meal from scratch on board using fresh local ingredients. We believe that great food is an essential part of creating an outstanding all-round experience. It's also wonderful to hear that you appreciated our itinerary. Although there were 28 guests on board, our tours are carefully timed to avoid the busiest periods, allowing our guests to enjoy kayaking and snorkelling away from the crowds. Creating a relaxed, semi-private experience where guests can enjoy the beauty of Ang Thong without sharing it with dozens of other boats is exactly what we strive for. Thank you once again for your recommendation. We're delighted you felt the experience was worth every baht, and we hope to welcome you back aboard the Red Dragon for another unforgettable adventure in Koh Samui! Aom

We're also pleased that you enjoyed the freshly prepared food, found the boat clean and comfortable, and felt safe throughout the trip. We believe these details, together with our small group experience, allow our guests to truly relax and enjoy the beauty of the day without the crowds. Thank you again for choosing to sail with us. We hope to welcome you back on board for another unforgettable adventure the next time you're in Koh Samui! Aom
From the pickup to the return, everything was perfect, a top-notch team that is attentive, cooks who made us 2 excellent meals for breakfast and lunch. The spots visited are worthy of a movie and we did not come across any other excursions! Thanks again for this perfect day!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that everything was perfect from the moment we picked you up until we brought you back to your hotel. Our entire team works hard to create a seamless and relaxing experience, so it's incredibly rewarding to know that you felt so well looked after throughout the day. We're especially pleased that you enjoyed the freshly prepared breakfast and lunch. Our onboard chefs prepare every meal fresh on the boat each day, and it's wonderful to hear that the food became one of the highlights of your trip. We're also thrilled that you appreciated visiting beautiful locations away from the crowds. One of the things that makes our tour unique is that we carefully plan our itinerary to avoid the busy spots whenever possible, allowing our guests to experience the stunning beauty of Ang Thong in a more peaceful and exclusive setting. Thank you once again for your kind words. It was a pleasure having you on board, and we hope to welcome you back for another perfect day in paradise on your next visit to Koh Samui! Aom
Overall a good experience and a nice crew
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback! We're really pleased to hear you had a good experience and that our crew helped make your day enjoyable. They'll be happy to know their friendliness and hospitality made a positive impression. We designed our Red Dragon tour to offer a more relaxed and comfortable way to experience Ang Thong Marine Park, with smaller group sizes so our guests can enjoy the beautiful surroundings without the crowds. Thank you for choosing to sail with us. We hope to welcome you back on board the next time you're visiting Koh Samui for an even more memorable adventure! Aom
Overall a 5 Star experience. Two, Ellen and Monkey-man are fantastic and honor of thier way to ensure you’re safe and having fun. Break, lunch and the snacks are great. The kayaking is a must and is one of the best things I’ve done in Thailand. Small downsides you should be aware of. Semi-private = about 35 ppl. The Red Dragon yatch isn’t what any American or European would think of as a yatch but it’s nice enough. Larger downside. The group is just a tad too large for the Red Dragon. Maybe 4-6 people less would be perfect but we were left standing at lunch waiting for a table.
Thank you, Bruce, for your honest and detailed review! We're delighted to hear that you had an overall 5-star experience and that Two, Ellen, Monkey Man, and the rest of our crew helped make your day so enjoyable. We'll be sure to share your kind words with them. It's also wonderful to know that you enjoyed the kayaking, as well as our freshly prepared breakfast, lunch, and snacks, all prepared on board by our chefs. We also appreciate your constructive feedback and would like to clarify a couple of points for future guests. On the day of your tour (9 July 2025), there were 27 guests on board the Red Dragon. Our tour information clearly states that the Red Dragon (78 ft) accommodates a maximum of 28 guests, while the Blue Dragon (68 ft) accommodates a maximum of 14 guests. In Thailand, a vessel the size of the Red Dragon is licensed to carry approximately 140 passengers, so by limiting our tours to just 28 guests with two professional guides, we are able to provide a spacious, relaxed, semi-private experience that is very different from traditional group tours. We're sorry to hear that you had to wait briefly for a table during lunch. We will review this with our team to see how we can improve the dining experience even further. Regarding the Red Dragon, she's a traditional teakwood yacht, handcrafted with a classic sailing design rather than a modern luxury motor yacht. Her spacious sun deck, comfortable lounge and dining area, and signature catamaran net are all designed to create a relaxed atmosphere where guests can unwind while sailing. We've intentionally created an experience where the journey is just as enjoyable as the destination, with plenty of space to relax, enjoy the scenery, listen to your favourite music, have a drink, watch the sunset, and simply escape the crowds. Thank you again for choosing to sail with us and for sharing your feedback. We truly value comments like yours, as they help us continue improving while providing future guests with a clear understanding of the experience we strive to deliver. We hope to welcome you back to Koh Samui in the future. Aom
A truly wonderful day from pick up to drop off. Highly recommended. Every single staff member (and there were lots of them) go above and beyond to make sure you are all very well looked after and made to feel welcome. Lots of attention to detail and knowledgeable staff. The food (breakfast and lunch) was delicious with plenty of choice. Soft drinks and water are plentiful and freely available throughout the tour. Motion sickness tablets are offered, just in case you might need them - it wasn’t too rough a trip though. Kayaking, snorkelling and the lagoon were all great to do, with some beautiful sights. The boat is comfortable and there is ample room because it’s purposefully not filled anywhere near capacity, with the number capped at 28 on the Red Dragon. All four of us loved it, including our birthday girl. Book it, you genuinely won’t be disappointed!
Hi, Lindsay! Thank you so much for your beautiful review! It truly means a lot to our entire team to know that all four of you had such a wonderful day with us, especially your birthday girl! We're so pleased we could be part of such a special celebration. Our team has many years of experience working with visitors to Koh Samui. We train our crew to understand the importance of customer care and safety in and out of the water. Our entire crew aims to exceed guests' expectations. We view our employees as the most valuable assets our company possesses. I am happy to hear that you have enjoyed your journey aboard our Red Dragon Yacht, entirely built from teak wood with a traditional sail, features a generous sun deck, a fully furnished lounge & dining area, and a catamaran net giving her rare charm and character. Our trips visit the Marine Park's best attraction when no one is around! Exclusive to our tours, Kayaking at the secret lagoon makes for a fabulous kayaking experience. Located at the most remote corner of the park we explore the island by kayaks we carry onboard and follow the action from our tender. We snorkel at islands located 20 minutes' sail away from the park, as visibility at the park is very limited. Thank you again for choosing to spend your day with us and for recommending us to future travellers. We hope to welcome you and your family back on board the next time you're in Koh Samui—perhaps for another birthday celebration! Aom
We had a great time. We went with 2 children, 9 months and 6 years old. The staff was really attentive and sweet with the children, and offered great alternatives to join the kayaking (in a dinghy) and snorkeling (in a small floating net) that suited us well. Thanks a lot!
Hi Marte Thank you so much for your kind review! It was a pleasure to welcome your family on board. We're especially happy to hear that both your little ones enjoyed the day and that our crew helped make the experience comfortable and stress-free for everyone. We believe a family adventure should be enjoyable for guests of all ages, which is why our team always goes the extra mile to adapt activities to each family's needs. Whether it's joining the kayaking in our dinghy, enjoying snorkeling safely from a floating netted raft, or simply making sure the youngest guests feel happy and cared for, we're here to create unforgettable memories for everyone. Thank you for trusting us with your family day out. We hope to welcome you back on board for another adventure the next time you're in Koh Samui! Aom
The weather was rough, so the experience was cancelled, which is fine - of course no one can control the weather. It was a bad experience because they had already picked us up and we were on the boat for ten minutes, they had just told us the whole plan and it sounded great, and then told us we had to cancel (and the guy sounded like he was joking? he needs to not smile when giving bad news) they definitely could have checked the weather ten minutes before, when we weren’t on the boat yet. It seems like the reason why is because this specific boat is old or a special kind of boat that needs very perfect weather - we saw another one of their boats continue on as we turned back. I think it should be clear that this tour is more likely to get canceled than other tours. Also, they weren’t very nice about it in general or clear about why. We also tried to rebook and they weren’t flexible. They did give a refund very quickly, and gave free breakfast.
I am sorry we canceled the tour on the morning of the tour, and could not accommodate your rescheduling request, as we had limited availability and the weather was forecast to worsen. Shortly after departing, we got reports of inclement weather at the remote islands we visit for kayaking and snorkeling, and decided to cancel and return to Koh Samui. Our two guides have informed the guests of the cancellation and referred questions about rescheduling/refund to our management or agent, as they do not have the detailed reservation status. Concerning our guide, smile when giving bad news. We know this can be confusing; Thai people smile when they feel uncomfortable. In Thailand, smiling is a complex form of non-verbal communication and social lubricant, not strictly an indicator of happiness. Thai culture places a high value on maintaining social harmony, "saving face," and avoiding confrontation, making a smile the default response to awkwardness or discomfort. As advised in our tour information, this experience required good weather conditions as we visited the most remote island of the park. We do understand that it is disappointing for you to learn that we cannot run the tour due to inclement weather. However, in our commitment to excellent customer service, we cancel tours when conditions prevent us from providing a safe and enjoyable experience on our tour. We hope you join us again in better weather, Aom
We were a large group of 8 celebrating our sons 21st birthday. The day was absolutely perfect with J making him feel incredibly special. The food was divine, the drinks plentiful and the space on the boat was fantastic. So many surprises on the way which I won't spoil for you but let's just say service was next level. If you are considering a tour of Ang Thong, go with these guys. I would do it all again if I could.
Thank you for reviewing us following your Semi-Private yacht adventure to Ang Thong Park’s hidden treasures. Our exquisite tours offer a once-in-a-lifetime itinerary dedicated to ensuring each day is fun, safe, and secluded. Our food is prepared and cooked on board by our 5* Chef, and the buffet lunch and light breakfast are often noted to be of higher quality than many restaurants. We firmly believe that food & drinks on tour are very important to provide an all-around outstanding experience. We have designed our boats and facilities to provide our guests with plenty of room and optional activities while sailing, dining, listening to your playlist, having drinks, playing games, and watching the sunset, so you can enjoy the journey ready to explore the destination and activities. Our boats, facilities, and activities are designed to accommodate, be fun, and be safe for travelers from all walks of life, couples, families with young children, and seniors. The itinerary offers a nice balance of adventurous activities and relaxation in between. We thank you again for your recommendation and hope to see you again on another sunny day. Aom
