The islands are beautiful & but the Staff is helpful and accommodating. However, I would not recommend this trip. passengers are crammed into the speed boats like a sardine can. It is hot and sweaty, and quite a few people were getting nauseous on the one hour and 15 minute boat ride out. The islands are beautiful, at least what you can see of them, given the hordes of tourists from numerous boats who all descend upon, the beach at the same time. It is difficult to snorkel as there are so many other boats and people around you. There is a hike up to an overlook on the first stop, but again, so many people you can barely get a clear shot without , someone photo-bombing you. Lunch is provided, but it is an assembly line of premade trays that did not look or taste good at all. So they get an A for effort, but I would definitely not recommend this tour. There are plenty of other beautiful beaches around , that are just as nice and not nearly as crowded.

A very well organised and planned trip! Our tour guide Nancy was so lovely and made the whole experience even better! When we arrived there was breakfast and drinks available for everyone which was a lovely surprise. The group organisation was excellent, as we all got given coloured beach bags which made it easy to find your group. The islands were very busy but this is to be expected for a tourist hot spot, but still very enjoyable and beautiful to see. Our lunch was tasty too, which we chose at the start of the day. And lots of snorkelling time at great locations with lots to see! Would definitely recommend and will be using Fantastic Simalian travel again!

We booked this trip hoping for a beautiful snorkelling experience. Starting with the positives, the operation was very well executed. We were dropped off at the harbour and clearly directed to exactly where we needed to go. The staff were excellent, entertaining and very friendly. Breakfast was provided but we didn’t eat as we had already eaten at our hotel so I can’t comment on the quality of the breakfast. We were offered sea sickness tablets before we got on the boat which was a fabulous touch. Now come the negatives. Then we were packed like sardines into a speedboat where you couldn’t move or see out to sea at all as the walls on the boat were too high. Really not great for 90 minutes out to sea for someone who suffers from motion sickness. It was hideous. Our guide informed us that there were a lot of jellyfish at the moment and we would try to find snorkelling areas that would be safe. We arrived at the first island (not for snorkelling) and there were already thousands of people there. We went for a swim and quickly came out thanks to the jellyfish already stinging us. Great start to the day. We then got back into our sardine can and went to the first snorkelling stop where people jumped in and straight back out because you guessed it… more jellyfish. It felt like the guides needed to get us in for snorkelling as it was sold as a snorkelling trip. That’s when the party music started. Now the Similan Islands are beautiful. There is no denying it. But you go there for the beauty not for Black Eyed Peas being blasted out like you’re in Magaluf in the height of European summer. It was terrible. The crowds made the island feel like Disneyland without the magic. The food for lunch was inedible and there wasn’t any option to buy anything to substitute it. The whole day was full of screeching guides which completely ruined any sense of peace you’d want from such a beautiful location. The snorkelling was OK. Nothing special at all. I really wouldn’t waste your money and just look at Google images instead.

Great day. Very well organised and very friendly and attentive staff. Boat very small for the number of people. Absolutely no room to move around or store your things . Everything on your lap. Also, window line above your head so cannot see anything.

The day for the most part was fun. I do wish it was noted when purchasing tickets that if you purchase the 2nd floor of the catamaran and pay extra for the second you don’t actually get to sit up there when going to the islands which are over an hr away. You are stuffed in the 1st floor with everyone with no air flow so make sure you grab a handful of Dramamine if you get even a little sea sick. They have them there like it’s candy. Just in jars everywhere. Which is helpful. You can only go up to the 2nd floor when you’re not moving but when you are not moving you are snorkeling or swimming or chilling on the beach so you don’t actually use the 2nd floor and anyone can go up there. They don’t check your tickets. So pointless to spend the extra money for something you will never use. Everything else was good. Ocean was beautiful the rock formations were beautiful and the beach was beautiful. It did seem a little rushed and there’s always a tone of ppl so hard to get good photos without some person walking through it but we still managed to get some. I would definitely bring water shoes. The last beach getting on the boat was rough. The tide went down so the boat couldn’t get close to the beach. Sow we had to walk about 20-30 ft into the ocean with rough waves coming in and sharp rocks. Got knocked over and cut my foot open. They took your sandals at the beginning of the trip so you don’t have them with you.
