Our tour guide was excellent, she took photos for us, spoke excellent English and always made sure we were comfortable. Pig Island was amazing! My 13 year old daughter lit up as she gave food and especially water to all the baby pigs. (She was a bit frightened of the big boars). There is a bar there to buy food and drinks (and even joints). Not crazy expensive either. The best part was bar people would pop a hole in the top of your water and you could give the pigs water like from a baby bottle. It was sooo cute. Feeding them wasn't much fun as you couldn't feed them by hand and had to put a plate of food on the ground and step back as they acted like....well, pigs 😂. Fabulous experience. Snorkelling wasn't great cause weather was stormy but lunch was really yummy. The long boat is quite difficult to get in and out of so if you have any mobility issues this trip is not for you. The speedboats were a much easier option if you need to though
Thank you so much for your lovely and detailed review! 😊 We are very happy to hear that you and your daughter had such an amazing time at Pig Island. The baby pigs are definitely adorable, and we love hearing how much joy they brought to your family 🐖💕 We’re also glad to know our tour guide took great care of you and helped make the experience even more special with photos and support throughout the trip. Thank you as well for mentioning the snorkeling conditions honestly, unfortunately, weather can sometimes affect visibility, but we’re happy you still enjoyed the yummy lunch and overall experience. And yes, the pigs can get very excited at feeding time 😂 Thank you as well for sharing helpful advice about the long tail boat access for future travelers. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back again on your next visit to Koh Samui! Best regards, Tony & the Backpacker Samui Travel Team Koh Samui, Thailand
Ok place for a hour or so. Pigs everywhere but the island was filled with trash and not kept up at all. Bathrooms were disgusting. The pigs were awesome however, from massive ones to tingly little piglettes. The beach is nice and the guide was great. Just over all 3 *’s. They need to clean up the property and it would be really nice.
Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the pigs, the beach, and our guide—that means a lot to us. At the same time, we’re sorry to hear about the cleanliness issues you experienced on the island and the condition of the bathrooms. Please note that the island itself is managed by local authorities and not directly by us, but we fully understand how this affects your overall experience. We have already shared your feedback with the relevant parties and will continue to push for improvements. Thank you again for your comments—they truly help us improve and keep guests informed.

Water was quite troubled for snorkeling. Beginners will like it, but passionate divers may be a little disappointed. A lot of people are on the snorkeling place and on pig island. But the fact of having a long tail boat just for us two was amazing. One sailor on board, and very friendly. Transfer from and to hotel was very nice too, with confortable cars. All the experience was smooth.
Thank you very much for your thoughtful 5-star review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed the private long tail boat experience—having the boat just for the two of you truly makes it special and more authentic. It’s also great to know our boat captain and transfer service helped make your day smooth and comfortable. We appreciate your honest feedback regarding the snorkeling conditions and crowds. As you mentioned, this experience is especially enjoyable for beginners or those looking for a relaxed day, while sea conditions can sometimes vary. Thank you again for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back for another unique experience in Koh Samui! Best regards, Tony & the Backpacker Samui Travel Team Koh Samui, Thailand
Great trip to Pig Island. Sea was a bit rough and we got soaked going but dried out in the sun. Was amazing seeing the pigs. Only a couple of hours needed on this island as nothing else to do. Remember to take a towel as well

We loved having the longboat to ourselves. Gave us a bit of freedom and felt a more personal experience
Dear Carl, Thank you very much for your wonderful 5-star review! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your morning trip and the private long-tail boat experience.

Best regards, Tony & the Backpacker Samui Travel Team Koh Samui, Thailand
This was another great afternoon. The company picked us up at our hotel, on time. Dropped us at the pier. Where we got on a long boat. We stopped for snorkeling (about40 minutes). Then on to pig island. We had 2 hours. What a treat. We fed the pigs ( you can buy a bag of pig food), they are very friendly. We are around 60 years old and had a great time. It would be amazing for kids. Then back to the pier where the car was waiting to take us back to our hotel. Well done everyone involved in organising this trip. A real must do. If you don't do it you are missing out.

I loved the pigs because the pigs were nice but the big ones were aggressive and I don’t like aggressive things 4 stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you for your review and for sharing your experience with us! 😊 We’re happy to hear that you loved the pigs, especially the friendly ones.

Your feedback is very valuable to us, and we truly appreciate your 4-star rating. We hope to welcome you again for another enjoyable experience in Koh Samui! 🌴🐷
We took a long boat out to Pig Island. Once we arrived you are given a bottle of water which I let the pigs have as they seemed thirsty and it was scorching hot out. The big pigs can bite but the little piglets steal the show. Good food served for minimal pricing and u can swim or relax on the sandy beach. Lots of props for photo ops.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! 😊 We’re glad you enjoyed the Pig Island trip, especially meeting the adorable piglets, relaxing on the beach, and taking fun photos. Thank you as well for mentioning the food and overall atmosphere. For everyone’s safety, we always advise guests to follow the guide’s instructions around the pigs, as the bigger ones can be a bit cheeky and protective. Your feedback is very helpful for future visitors. We hope to welcome you back again for another local Thai experience in Koh Samui! 🌴🐷
