    ITINERARY

    Upon arrival in Bangkok, you will board a direct flight to SAMUI. Upon arrival, our representative will meet you and take you to your hotel/resort. The rest of the day is free for you to enjoy at your own pace and with your own activities. Stay at the hotel/resort overnight.
    After breakfast, continue your tour with a boat to explore the beautiful islands of Koh NangYuan, and Koh Tao. These two islands are among the most beautiful in the world and are home to some of the world’s most beautiful coral reefs.

    Koh NangYuan is made up of three islands, each with its own unique flora and fauna. Each island is surrounded by clusters of large boulders, and each of these clusters has a white sandy beach that changes shape and formation over time depending on the tides.

    Coral life is abundant on these islands, and we highly recommend walking up the hills nearby to take in the stunning views.

    On Koh Tao, often referred to as Turtle Island, you’ll find many picturesque bays and white sandy beaches surrounded by stunning coral reefs. In recent years, this island has become a popular destination for dive schools and snorkelers.

    You can stay overnight at the hotel / resort.

    After Breakfast, proceed for full day Ang Thong National Marine Park tour. Admire the picture-perfect scenery, deep blue sea, and idyllic islands surrounding Ang Thong National Marine Park, a beautiful archipelago of 42 islands. Immerse yourself in the natural splendor of abundant marine life on Ko Samui. Begin with a pickup from your Ko Samui hotel and proceed to Bang Rak Pier. Step into a speedboat and depart on a 1-hour cruise to Ang Thong National Marine Park, one of the filming locations of The Beach starring Leonardo DiCaprio. The island is famous for its pristine waters, white-sand beaches, rugged coastline, and majestic mountains. Your first stop is Ko Wao for an hour of snorkeling at one of the most beautiful shallow-water coral reefs in the park. Next, absorb the beautiful scenery while cruising by Ko Tai Plao. See Monkey Island, Lion Island, bizarre rock formations, and the natural stone bridge protruding from the sea at Ko Samsao. Stop by the amazing Emerald Lake at Ko Mae Ko; climb to the top and get a panoramic view of the island. Break for a delicious, freshly cooked buffet lunch at Ko Paluay; then navigate to Song Pee Nong Beach for some of relaxation. Here you can take relaxing stroll, sunbathe, swim, or even kayak (Optional Tour: Sea Kayaking). Overnight stay at the Hotel / Resort
    After breakfast, continue with City Tour Samui. You will be picked up from your hotel in Ko Samui and will be taken to the island’s beautiful scenery. Your first stop is at the famous Hin Yai & Hin Ta rocks. You will be mesmerized by these beautiful natural formations. Then, you will visit a local coconut plantation and taste the sweet, creamy taste of fresh coconut picked from the trees by the trained monkeys.

    From the coconut plantation, you will be taken to Nathon town where you can buy souvenirs from the island souvenir shops and have lunch at your own cost. Next, you will visit Wat Khunaram where you will be able to see the mummified monk within a Buddhist temple. Finally, you will arrive at the Big Buddha Temple, which is a great place for taking photos to remember your unforgettable experience.

    You will then be taken to Samui Airport where you will be transferred to the flight to Bangkok. You will have an overnight stay at your hotel.

    After breakfast, continue on the city tour which includes major attractions including temples around the capital city.
    Visit the Golden Buddha Temple, located at the end of China Town’s Yaowarat road, Hualampong railway station. The world’s largest and heaviest gold seated Buddha, weighing five and a half tons, is housed in Wat Traimit. Artisans used to craft the Buddha in gold and hide them from invading troops by covering them with stucco or plaster.
    Visit the Marble Temple, Wat Ben jamabhopit, also known as Wat Benja, was built in 1900 by king Rama V. This temple is famous for more than one reason.
    Nicknamed ‘The Marble Temple’ for all the outer walls of main temple are covered in Italian marble, but also because it is the only temple in the world to be embossed with 5 baht
    After breakfast, check out from your hotel and head to the airport for your return journey with fond memories of Thailand. We suggest you visit the elegant squares of Bangkok.

    The Do’s when Visiting Thailand:

    Do respect all Buddha images. Buddha images are held sacred and sacrilegious acts are punishable by imprisonment even if committed by foreign visitors.
    Do dress properly when visiting a temple.
    Do remove your shoes before entering a temple, somebody’s house and even some shops.
    Do treat monks with the highest respect.
    Do try and keep calm no matter what the problem or provocation may be.
    Do eat with a spoon. Use the fork to load food on to the spoon.
    Do lower your body slightly when passing between or in front of people.
    Do try and learn a few basic phrases in Thai, like ‘hello’ and ‘thank you’.
    Do smile a lot.
    Do enjoy yourself. Thais like life to be sanuk.
    Do ensure that you have a visa if you need one.
    Do make sure you have adequate travel insurance.

    The Don’ts when Visiting Thailand:

    Don’t show disrespect towards the Thai Royal Family.

    Don’t cross your legs when you are in the presence of a monk. This applies whether you are sitting on the floor or in a chair.

    Don’t touch a Thai woman without consent. Despite the image portrayed in some bars and clubs, the majority of Thai women are conservative.

    Don’t be overly affectionate in public. This has changed in recent years and younger Thai couples can be seen holding hands, but snogging your boyfriend or girlfriend in the middle of the shopping mall won’t win you too many friends. As with many things, Thais know that behaviour in the West is different to Thailand so you won’t be chased out of town for holding hands with your partner, but resist the temptation to do so inside temple grounds.

    Don’t sunbathe nude. This is offensive to most Thai people although nobody is likely to say anything to you if you do so.

    Don’t touch a Thai person’s head or ruffle their hair. Apologise if you accidentally touch somebody’s head. There are exceptions to this standard of behaviour; for example, it doesn’t apply to lovers in the privacy of their room. Thai people will also sometimes pat a child on the head, but as a Westerner it’s best not to do this to any child to prevent any embarrassment.

    Don’t place your feet on the table while sitting, don’t point to anything with your feet and don’t touch anybody with your feet.

    Don’t raise your voice or lose your temper; try and be jai yen.

    Don’t be offended by questions about age, marital status or what you do for a living. These are subjects that will often come up in small-talk. Of course, you don’t have to answer (especially the question about age), you can just smile and just say it’s a secret or ‘mai bok’ (‘not telling’).

    Don’t take Buddha images out of the country. Strictly speaking it is against the law to take or send Buddha images out of the country unless special permission has been granted. However, this doesn’t mean that stores won’t sell them to you. They will sell them to you, but won’t necessarily tell you about the regulations.

    Don’t overstay your visa.
