What you'll see and do
After a morning pick-up from Koh Samui, head straight to the pier to begin your maritime excursion among the 42 islands of Ang Thong. After being fitted for masks and snorkels, you’ll glide over to the island of Koh Wao to snorkel in the crystal-clear waters among magnificently diverse coral reefs. Explore the sheltered bay, keeping your eyes peeled for tropical fish. Continuing through the national park, you’ll arrive at Koh Mae Ko for kayaking and after that. Disembarking and heading for the panoramic view above the Emerald Lagoon, a gem of Ang Thong Park. Fed by the sea through a series of caves, the lagoon is completely untouched, as it is illegal to swim within it.

Great experience Happy Samui
This is my first time to Ko samui and I booked the a thong marine park tour with happy samui through my hotel. It’s the best tour I ever had in my life. They’re well prepared with the schedule and activities. The guide Mr Win and his team are very experienced tour guides and his team consists of photographer, helmsman , his other crew members who ensure we are always safe in the boat. I will definitely recommend their service !!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this amazing review! 😊 We’re thrilled your first visit to Koh Samui included such a memorable Ang Thong Marine Park adventure. We’ll proudly share your kind words with Mr. Win and the entire crew. Thank you for your trust and recommendation!

Excellent day out, although boat not ideal for views
Absolutely great staff - meticulously tidy and organised on the boat. Great stops. The only reason I've given it a 4 is that we felt the boat wasn't ideal for a day trip. Clean and powerful but very enclosed with no real way to watch the view when it was on the move. Definitely just a means to get from A to B not a 'day on a boat' experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your detailed feedback! 😊 We’re delighted you enjoyed the great stops and found our team organised and attentive. We’re sorry the boat layout didn’t provide the open views you expected during the journey. We appreciate the honest feedback and will share it with our team.

Fabulous day!
Excellent day and nice that there was only 14 on our boat. It’s a full day and a fair bit of it is spent travelling between activities. Snorkeling was terrific and plenty to see, even with grey sky’s. The day is incredibly well managed and staff just think of everything to maximise the enjoyment of the day. This experience can be done for a lot less but with much more people. I feel like this was the way to do it.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your detailed and wonderful review! 😊 We’re delighted you enjoyed the smaller group size and especially the snorkeling, even with the cloudy weather. It’s fantastic to hear that you appreciated the organization and attention to detail throughout the day. We’re very happy that the experience felt comfortable and enjoyable from start to finish.

Perfect Size Tour — Relaxing and Personal
5-Star Review We had such a wonderful experience with Happy Samui’s Koh Mu Ang Thong tour! Clay and the crew were incredibly attentive and personal throughout the entire day. They guided us while kayaking to the viewpoint and during snorkeling, making everything feel easy and enjoyable. Cley was especially friendly and even took pictures for us, which was such a nice personal touch. I also really appreciated that the tour accommodates a maximum of 16 people. The boat never felt overcrowded, which made the whole experience much more relaxing and comfortable. The crew was friendly, helpful, and genuinely made us feel well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Happy Samui to anyone looking for a more personal and relaxed way to experience Ang Thong Marine Park! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this wonderful 5-star review! ⭐️😊 We’re thrilled you enjoyed such a personal and relaxing experience exploring Ang Thong Marine Park with Clay, Cley and the crew. It’s lovely to hear you appreciated the attentive service, kayaking, snorkeling and personal touches like the photos. Thank you for your fantastic recommendation! 🌴🌊🙏

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bophut.
How much does Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $134 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 Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 81 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 353 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bophut, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury 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 Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour?
+
Around 124 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury 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 Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour?
+
Included: Speedboat tour (max 16 guests); Round-trip hotel transfers; Kayaking activity & Beach mat; English-speaking guide; and Snorkeling equipment (mask, snorkel, fins). Not included: Admission fees; and TIP. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Full Day Ang Thong Islands Luxury Small Group Tour include hotel pickup?
+

+
