Had a great experience with amazing guides and staffes. Do not expect too far about having breakfast and lunch. I had a best Snorkeling in my life. Shouldve worn fins. Riding a speed boat was kinda scary when you leave, however, you are going to see yourself sleepzing in the boat when youre coming back.

Was a Beautiful trip.... one must do when in samui.... we were picked up from the hotel to the boat, we were greeted by the very friendly staff and Ron who was the manager. The boat was very nice with a friendly atmosphere. To our surprise they even made breakfast for us, which was so unexpected... we had a guide on the boat too.... Ron took us to some really nice hidden places where not many people have been. He guided us very very well and was so careful with all the safety on board.... the kids loved the kayaking..... and the best part was, we all got to enjoy as no one had to take photos, it was arranged with the boat, which was another surprise.... Then another highlight of this trip, lunch time.... the food was cooked on board.... and it was so so so good..... we were 16 of us on the boat and each one of us loved the food. Oh! Forgot to mention about the jacuzzi on the boat, it was awesome. Wonderful trip.... loved it, and would recommend everyone to do it.... Thankyou Ron and Thankyou to all the wonderful staff who took such good care of us ...

Just back from a wonderful day with GoJo Tours in and around Bangkok! Started at the coconut farm (my least favourite part of the day, but still enjoyable and informative nonetheless!), then onto the train market and ended up at Wat Samphran (dragon temple). Enjoyed some delicious food and coffee at the train market and thoroughly enjoyed our 3 baht train ride! The dragon temple was spectacular and had lovely grounds to enjoy too. Our guide, Anne, couldn’t have done a better job and as it was just the 3 of us and her, we pretty much had a personalised tour. Our taxi driver was also lovely and was happy to stop whenever we wanted during the journey. Highly recommended tour!

Aem, our tour guide, was super friendly and a pleasure to hang out with. She provided an overview of the history of Koh Madsum from when the pigs first arrived to its current popularity as a tourist destination. She even knew all the pigs by name and knew how to best pet the pigs. Hint, they love their belly rubs! From her words and actions it was obvious she cared for the pigs and wanted her guests to understand how to care for and enjoy them too. We next visited a secluded beach on Koh Madsum where you can relax in the crystal clear waters away from other tourists. The last stop was for snorkeling. It was disappointing to see other tour guides letting their guests stand on the coral reefs. Aem reminded us this is not a good practice and made sure we knew not to do that. I was proud that she scolded the other tour guide a bit for letting their guest do this. This tour operator really tries to minimize the negative environmental impacts caused by tourism and positively support the local community. Highly recommend you use them.
