    Great experience

    Thoroughly enjoyed this trip. People need to listen to the guide’s instructions as we witnessed 3 people getting bitten by the pigs. Each time it was the tourists fault

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We’re delighted to hear that you thoroughly enjoyed the trip. We truly appreciate you highlighting the importance of following the guide’s instructions, especially when interacting with the pigs. Safety is always our priority, and we hope to welcome you back for another enjoyable experience in the future!

    Could be better

    Got off to bad start with Pick up 20 mins late. A further 25 minutes waiting as you are dropped off to wait for boat to leave. Snorkelling was good and crew were efficient in issuing masks and lifebelts if required 45 minutes was about right then short hop in boat to pig island. It was fun for about an hour but there was nothing much to see or do after that. Lunch was included and was basic, served on trays that looked prison issue. After 3 hours it’s back on boat to be picked up by mini bus. Driver was waiting for us. The guide was fairly anonymous throughout, so there was very little engagement throughout In fairness, it was a cheap trip, but I would have been happier to pay more for a better rounded experience

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We’re sorry to hear that the tour did not fully meet your expectations. We sincerely appreciate your honest feedback, and your comments will be shared with the relevant team members so we can review the experience and make improvements for our future guests.

    Best tour operator to Pig Island

    Fantastic trip, about 1 hour from Casa de Mar hotel to boat departure point in south. We did afternoon trip and had plenty of time to chill on Pig Island, tasty buffet lunch provided, free kayaks and snorkelling gear. Had the bonus of seeing the sunset before returning to Koh Samui for transfer back to hotel.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We are glad to know that you liked the experience.

    Pig Island & snorkelling

    The island we visited was beautiful with crystal aqua water and white sand, lots of rough sand due to coral and shells. The pigs and piglets were cute, you can feed them and they are well looked after. The snorkelling was disappointing for us as it was our first time and it wasn’t very organised, just jump in and be careful of the rocks. Too many people jumping in all at the same time and it was overwhelming the waster wasn’t very clear and my daughter cut her foot on the rocks as someone accidentally kicked her because it was too crowded, this spoiled the experience and we just got back on the boat for first aid. I would suggest staff have two separate areas as there was a total of 45 people on one boat, this would have made more space for everyone. Getting on and off the boat is not altogether safe, there are some rope rails in some areas and then none in other areas walking on plastic floating tiles, very unstable, so be careful. Lunch was quite nice with chicken, fried rice, salad, chips and fruits. The staff were very nice and helpful. We were disappointed to see so much littering, people should respect this beautiful place and put garbage in the bins provided.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the overall experience. We're also sorry to hear about the accident during the trip. Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the snorkeling organization. We will pass your comments on to the relevant team so they can review and improve the experience for future guests. We appreciate your valuable feedback and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future.

    Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bophut.

    How much does Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui cost?

    +

    Prices start at $49 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 Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 21 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 Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui?

    +

    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 Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui?

    +

    Around 7 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Pig Island, Koh Mat Sum, and Koh Tan Tour from Koh Samui 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.
