This was absolutely the highlight of our trip. Certainly not for the faint-hearted. All done very professionally, with huge amounts of fun and some hefty doses of adrenalin! Remarkably cheap, as the tour lasted pretty much the whole day. A great way to see the jungles around Koh Samui and a side of Thailand not seen from the resorts. Highly recommended.
Most enjoyable day, covering all the specified itinerary. Our guide was very knowledgable and had a good sense of humour. Excellent lunch in a very remote lodge, covered some very extreme off road jungle terrain, driver was very capable. well worth while trip. Thanks.
The day started off on the wrong foot with our guide deviating from the planned day by taking part of our group for an elephant ride. We were left to kill 40 minutes with nothing to do while the others went on the ride. Not impressed! We then visited a couple of waterfalls which weren't too dramatic given that it was dry season. This was followed by a visit to see the mumified monk. So far not too impressive. The day improve dfrom that point as we ventured into the jungle and off the beaten track. We had the opportunity to see Koh Samui from all sides and had a delicious lunch at a remote restaurant in the jungle. Delicious! The vehicle is very basic - wear your hat and sunscreen as there's no shelter but made the day more exciting. Well worth the effort!
Great tour, took in the side of Samui that cannot be viewed without a serious off-road vehicle. In a group of 8, we 2 were the only english speakers, all else being German. Guide was very patient and explained everything in both German and English for us. His language skills and comedy were excellent.
The tour was good and the lunch was amazing..right in the middle of the forest...its really stuff you can't see without a proper 4x4 car.
I booked this trip for myself and my 7yr old son. I wasn't completely sure as to what was all entailed as the description was fairly brief and general but based on the previous reviews, I knew we'd have a great time. For 2 days prior, we rented motorbikes and explored the island on our own so I was a bit worried that the tour would include places we'd already been, but this was not the case.
The trip was nothing short of amazing. My son really enjoyed it and so did I! We visited 2 different waterfalls and we wore our swimsuits on the off chance that we'd be able to swim somewhere, as the beach at our hotel was unsuitable for swimming. The 2nd waterfall had a wonderful little spot for swimming!
We also stopped to see the mummified monk and the Secret Garden, two places I wanted to see but hadn't yet so that was nice. The drive up the mountain for lunch was breathtaking as you could see the lush foliage all around, lunch was suburb as well! Continuing up the hill and then back down was a bit heartstopping at times! We had a blast! A few nice touches included the driver pulling over periodically to grab various native fruit from the trees for us to try and also the beautiful flowers he got us at one point. It seems like this will be a long day trip but with all the places you get to see the day ended up not being long enough! I definitely recommend this trip, maybe take it in the early part of your holiday then spend the rest on a motorbike going to the places not included in the tour!
We really enjoyed the trip; it was great fun, but at times felt they went a little 'close to the edge' - literally. For fun, they often backed right up to sheer drops and slammed brakes on at the last minute. It was great fun, but very scary. Having said that, our driver was excellent at driving and very courteous. The only other problem was that we were the only two English people amongst a group of eight Germans, so we felt a little left out when our guide was speaking, but there isn't much that you can do about that, as we realize that far more Germans were holidaying in Koh Samui than English or Australian.
Swimming in the waterfall is the highlight of this trip. Too many people in vehicle very hit and nit particulary comfortable.
The day that we did our jeep safari it was raining heavily and the roads were slippery and wet and the jeep was slipping and sliding all over the place and that made the jeep tour great fun!!!! The guide was crazy and kept us laughing throughout the whole experience! Yiu get taken to 3 view points to see the views of the island which are stunning. The lunch was delicious. If it hadn't been raining and so treacherous I don't think I would have enjoyed it half as much!
the tour guide is excellent. He did a good job, but the 4WD jeep was more than like a pick up truck. Sitting in the rear bench whole day long was kind of torture.
A LOT OF HAGING AROUND WATING UNTIL WE GOT GOING. ONLY GOT UP TO THE 4 X4 DRIVING AFTER LUNCH WHICH WAS QUITE ENJOYABLE. A BIT DISSAPOINTING TO BE HONEST
