Koh Samui Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Absolutely loved this. My favourite things so far in Koh Samui.🌈🙏Jungle House Kitchen is so much more than a cooking class. Tom starts with a chat and then takes you for a wander around their garden, showing you where so many of the ingredients we just buy at home without even thinking about actually come from.Then Lynn takes over the cooking. She’s swesome — patient, relaxed and explains everything as you go. There were six of us and we made Pad Thai, Penang curry and larb, with everyone chopping, grinding and preparing different things together. Making the Penang curry paste completely from scratch with a mortar and pestle was strangely cathartic 😂 and there was something really wholesome about seeing these ingredients growing in the garden and then actually cooking with them. The whole evening is really casual. Everyone chats, has a drink, cooks, learns and has a laugh. Then somehow it all comes together at the end and you sit down and eat this amazing meal you’ve all made.Tom and Lynn are just lovely and incredibly generous with their time and knowledge. It doesn’t feel commercial or overly organised — it just feels like you’ve been welcomed into their place for the evening.Such a great experience. Would 100% recommend. ❤️

A good day out, reflecting the cost, so we didn't expect a luxury trip. What we got was well run, the direct booking online was easy and the pickup on time in a decent minibus. We were first at many of the stops so it wasn't too busy, in high season that might not be so. Yes it's mass tourism but the national parks seem to regulate it well, and the impact is in small areas of the islands. Compared to Europe and the UK it's not as crowded as popular spots there. The food was simple but plenty of it, as were non alcohlic drinks.

If you are coming to Koh Samui, you must visit Ang Thong Park and there’s no one better than this team to make your trip memorable!The tour was exactly as described. Their stellar reviews had set our expectations quite high but this team easily exceeded them! Communication before the event was great, pickup was on the dot, and the cruise / activities / food were well planned and executed. Though the yacht is designed to accommodate 70+ passengers, the semi-private cruise limits passengers to less than than half that, so there’s plenty of room to move around, relax, enjoy the scenery, and socialize, while cruising at a leisurely pace.Most of all, we really appreciated the crew and their attention to detail and looking after our every need. There was a briefing before each activity and the crew made sure everyone was safe and comfortable. For example, the team lead stayed by my side throughout the snorkeling experience as I let him know I was a beginner swimmer.If you are trying to decide between a fast speed boat vs a yacht cruise for Ang Thong, this is definitely the way to go!

Returning to Koh Samui for holidays after one year, I decided to return also to Discovery Divers for my scuba diving. I was again very well impressed by this dive center: very professional and friendly team of international instructors, quality scuba gear and speedboats, excellent coaching and service with instructors doing their very best to optimise my diving experience ( including photo/ video shooting). Highly recommended.

5 Stars. Discovery Divers Koh Samui are a fantastic outfit. Great people and if you have not scuba dived before could not recommend it the adventure and Discovery Divers more. Phillip my instructor was fantastic.

Start to finish this tour was amazing! Pick up was prompt (they gave us 30 min time frame but was there from the start time) It was pretty much a private experience as we were one of two couples which I felt was better as the guides stopped and managed to take pictures and videos of us. The best ATV experience ive ever done, it was really challenging and the route was very long! Stopped off for 30 mins at the tree top cafe so if youre not doing zip lining but want to see the amazing views this is definitely worth doing. They also look after your belongings and give you a water proof bag for the valuables which was a helpful touch. Would recommend using water shoes or trainers you dont care about as we went through alot of muddy water :) 1000% recommend this trip.Thank you :)

We stay in Koh Samui with our family in July and this was one of the best days of our holiday. The boat was very nice and not crowded because it was only for us. The crew was friendly and always smiling. They take us to nice snorkeling spots and also to a quiet beach that you can only reach by boat. The water was so clear and the kids really enjoyed it. Lunch cooked by the chef was fresh and very good. We never felt rushed and the whole day was relaxed. Thank you to all the crew for making our family trip so special. We hope to come back next time we visit Samui.

Worth every single penny. Everyone on staff was extremely kind, helpful, and very motivating to have the best time possible. Value the conversation and company of the boat crew and felt taken care from start to finish. This was the most worth it tour I have ever taken on any vacation I’ve ever been on. Thank you for making this the highlight of our entire trip.

I am really very satisfied with my new suit. The quality and workmanship are top-notch, the fabric feels high-quality, and the suit fits perfectly.I found the entire process particularly positive: The consultation was professional and friendly, my wishes were addressed precisely, and everything was implemented very quickly and reliably. The agreed-upon timelines were also met, which is not a given these days.Overall, a truly outstanding service from consultation to completion. I can definitely recommend the suit and the service and would have a suit made there again at any time.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I really had a very good experience here. From the beginning, the consultation was super friendly and personal. A lot of time was taken to address my wishes, and I never had the feeling that I was just being talked into something.I found it particularly positive how flexibly my wishes and even last-minute changes were addressed. Despite the relatively short timeframe, everything worked out without any problems.I am also very satisfied with the finished suit. The quality and workmanship are really strong for the price, and above all, the suit fits really well. In my opinion, the price-performance ratio is hard to beat.Overall, simply a very pleasant and uncomplicated service. I would definitely have a suit made here again and can recommend the tailor to anyone looking for a good suit at a fair price on Koh Samui.

Very professional organisation, with safety first, good supervising and instruction, nice diving spots and explanations about what to see, underwater life. Very good diving instructor, good food on the boat, transfer from the hotel etc. Everything organized online directly with Discovery Dive Centre.

I recently did the 2 dive trip to sail rock, I can’t recommend it enough. My guide Pierre was amazing and super nice, he made the trip feel safe and also very very fun, there was a good briefing at the start and time to get to know your group you are diving with. The lunch on board the boat in between dives was fab. 10/10 !

If I could give this place double the stars, I would. I hadn’t logged a dive in maybe 8 years before today and I was a little anxious, especially with the chop at sail rock. He calmly talked me out of my worries and made me feel so comfortable. We did a simple refresher then had two great dives saw barracuda, angelfish with purple stripes and many I don’t know. It was fascinating and good to be down again thanks to the great assistance from Discovery!

It was a great experience to do the Open Water Diver Course with DISCOVERY, Our guide Jo was great character, very experienced and a good teacher. Everything else worked very well starting from the hotel pick up to the boat and the great Thai food served on the boat.

The quad tour was absolutely exciting, technically demanding, and exceeded my expectations more than I could have imagined. Exactly the right adventure for anyone looking for a real challenge. The tour is definitely not suitable for children. I would book it again anytime!

Lovely day out. The stops were really good, a little rushed in places but the whole trip worth the experience. In hindsight the boat ride was a little much for a 4 year old but overall a great adventure and our active 12 year old is still raving about it.
