About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Mason M0 contributionsI would definitely recommend to anyone the views and experience was greatAmazing trip but it did take around 12 hours so maybe grab a snack to bring along. The car ride from khao lak is 2 hours each way. The staff was friendly but did not give a lot of information about the animals and land, we looked a lot of it upWritten December 9, 2024
- TonyJacques0 contributionsMaybe the best day out on a 5 week trip to SE Asia.....?3 out of 4 of us said this was the best trip we did on a 5 week trip around SE Asia. The whole day was really well organised if busy, other operators go to these islands so you don't have them to yourselves, but the snorkelling was really good, the beaches lovely and we had a really good lunch. They catered especially for our 2 vegetarians. A big highlight was our Guide Kwang and her team. They really looked after everyone, taking good of weaker swimmers and keeping a watchful eye. While safety outside North America and Europe may be more relaxed this team made it an unobtrusive priority. They even gave close up care to a couple who were sea sick. Kwang's enthusiasm for the sea and knowledge of the islands made it a really enjoyable day.Written December 5, 2024
- R1922JDmattt0 contributionsIn with nature, enjoyable.A good trip, very serine and in there with nature, we did as part of a trip including sea turtle centre and waterfall, a good way to spend half a day,Written November 29, 2024
- R1922JDmattt0 contributionsGood trip would recommend.A very good day trip, lots to do . A nice lunch included too, 3 stops with a chance to snorkel for about 40 minutes each time, Snacks also laid on in the morning and you can use their snorkelling gear if you don have your own. Surin islands are beautiful and not crowded either.Written November 29, 2024

Breakfast buffet on arrival, full debriefing in multiple languages, prescription goggles available if required, sea sick tablets, towels, buffet lunch, buffet tea when arriving back after the trip. Stopped to do 3 snorkel swims, beach stop, sea gypsy stop. Guides were amazing Really couldn’t have asked for anything moreWritten November 26, 2024
- Holly S0 contributionsThis is a great trip!The day worked seamlessly from pick up at our hotel to drop. Instructions were clear, small group and really lovely guide. The activities were varied and interesting with the right amount of time spent in each place. The canoeing was with a guide not on or our own. The lunch was a buffet but a little cold. Wager was offered throughout the day. The bus was comfortable and with AC. Would highly recommendWritten November 25, 2024
- aliszzz0 contributionsUnforgettable experience!!This trip was my first time to Surin Island and it was incredible experience. All the guides who took us there were super nice, helpful and friendly. The Captain was very professional and I would like to super thanks for Olivia, Ton and the other staff who gave us an unforgettable experience this time. If someone looking for a trip that’s worth your time and money I would recommend Love Andaman. Hope to join a trip with you again xoxo.Written November 23, 2024
- kath8160 contributionsA must!!This trip was amazing! Having been on many day trips from Phuket, the Surin Islands were a little piece of serenity, not as flooded with tourists as other closer-to-Phuket-tours are. Snorkeling was spectacular! Guides were well informed. Lovely lunch (although I was surprised Shark Fin soup was an option- I thought this had been mostly banned, excuse my first world ignorance) Best yet! We saw a whale on the trip back. Purely magic! Thanks SeastarWritten November 21, 2024
- P9887BGglenw0 contributionsFantastic adventureWe had a blast. The islands were almost surreal, and canoeing into the caves was like something out of an Indiana Jones movie. Every part of the excursion was enjoyable in its own way. K ‘protected’ us, as promised, and took very good care of my mother in law and another aging gentleman on the tour. Absolutely recommendedWritten November 19, 2024

- Carperdiem0 contributionsSeastar itinerary is all wrong. 11 hour day, only 1 hour of snorkelingI only went on this tour to experience snorkeling in the Surin Islands. But it was an 11 hour day from pickup to drop-off, with only 1 hour of snorkeling. We were meant to stop at three snorkeling sites but only stopped at two, due to inclement weather (despite it being calm from midday onwards). Two hours was spent travelling to and from the pier. One hour at the Muong village (about half an hour too long), one hour and twenty minutes at a pretty island having lunch (about 40 minutes too long), one hour standing around waiting to depart from the pier (with unappealing breakfast options) and 50 minutes standing around waiting to be taken home (with an excellent dinner available, but I didn't join the tour for a dining experience). Two x half-hour stops to snorkel and the rest of the time was on the boat. The first snorkeling spot was very ordinary but the 2nd was excellent. The 3rd didn't happen. 🥺 They could easily have cut time out of the food stops or Muong village tour or post trip buffet so that we could have more time doing what we all came for - the snorkeling. The trip out on the boat was very bouncy - more like a theme park roller coaster. They handed out seasick tablets before departure but half the boat still got sick. I saw at least 20 plastic bags of vomit collected by boat crew and deposited in "the spew bin", which was located at the rear two seats directly behind me. When everyone was revved-up by the boat conductor at the end of the trip (who was doing her best to create a joyous atmosphere) and asked "Did you have a good time?!", there was silence. So she tried again, in a louder voice ... still silence, through gritted teeth. Don't waste your money on this tour.Written October 19, 2024

we spent a wonderful evening in the outdoor kitchen. first we visited the market where we bought lots of fresh ingredients. We were also able to try delicious desserts there. Then we went to the great kitchen and cut all the ingredients for our nine dishes. Everything was so simple that even our children had no problems preparing it. Once everything was prepared, we started cooking. All children were allowed to cook with a wok themselves. All dishes were delicious and fresh. Since we love Thai cuisine, we decided to try a lot of curries.

Sadly this course was cancelled and the date offered was on the day we were going home. The session looked perfect for me as my husband didn’t want to come and this appeared to be one of the only ones that allowed a booking for one person.
Never mind - a very prompt refund was received Thankyou
