Trip of a lifetime - all the highlights of Angthong Marine Park
We cannot recommend 100 degrees east enough. They are more expensive than others, but it was very much worth it for the more personable service and flexibility of a smaller group. For the Anthong Marine Park, even with a “full boat” of 12 people, there was more than enough space to feel comfortable with option to sit in the front, covered in the back or even the navigator’s chair with a super uninterrupted view. Although Angthong is particularly popular, the team were really good at trying to avoid the larger groups or at least timing our arrival at the popular lunch beach so we felt like we were experiencing the marine park without too many crowds. The team provided support for weaker swimmers on the snorkelling elements and were really good at pointing out particular fish and marine life. All the staff were super attentive, ensuring that we had sufficient drinks and helping to take photos (particularly taking our underwater camera and getting great shots from a bit deeper as we didn’t want to dive down). The lunch provided was excellent, primarily vegetarian curries that weren’t overly spicy with some fried chicken for the meat-eaters. We appreciated being given a personal 5-10 minute warning prior to departure after lunch, in stark contrast to the other larger tour boats where staff yelled down the beach at the customers. The 100 degrees east team and their tours really made our trip to Koh Samui. We would highly recommend them.

Outstanding experience
This trip was the highlight of our holiday. If shopping around, it can look like this is expensive but it is worth every penny and great value. The team think of every detail and look after you so well. All the guides were helpful, friendly and informative. We enjoyed the snorkelling, and felt very safe at all times. The emerald lagoon was beautiful and we appreciated the tour changing the iterinary to ensure we saw this at the best time. The guides will offer to take photos and videos, which for us all turned out amazing, great to capture the memories. Lunch on the beach was outstanding, good selection. Unlimited soft drinks, clean water, towels, electrolytes, fresh fruits, beach mats... all included!! Personal highlight the final stop where we saw wild monkeys!! Group size of 12 is ideal, not too crowded. Can't recommened this experience enough if you are on Koh Samui.

A great day
An incredible day out, jam packed with a variety of activities with enough space to relax and enjoy. The team at 100 degrees east were fantastic and the entire day from pick up to drop off was awesome. A must do when visiting Koh Samui.

What a day!
Amazing experience from the minute we left. Although it was definitely a bit more expensive than other options available it’s definitely a case of you get what you pay for! The entire process was made simple and effortless and the crew on the day were really friendly and super attentive. Nothing was rushed, locations were spot on and the snorkelling and kayaking and hiking were all fantastic experiences. The food was delicious and plentiful We couldn’t fault the day. Shout out to Bastian, Tom and the entire crew!

Why this scores 93
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bophut.
How much does Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $182 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bophut usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bophut is not rushed.
Is Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 93 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 952 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Bophut, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour?
+
Around 333 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bophut can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bophut and add a light layer if any part of the 8.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bophut within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bophut?
+
On Outty we rank every Bophut experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 6 Hours Elephant Care and Jungle Tour by 4WD in Koh Samui, Cooking Class by Samui Native Instructor Geng and O Family, Semi-Private yacht adventure to Ang Thong Park’s hidden treasures. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bophut?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bophut?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour?
+

Does Angthong National Marine Park VIP Small Group Tour include hotel pickup?

Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 368 listed pickup locations in and around Bophut. Be ready about 45 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

+
It is offered in Thai and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
