We booked the trip spontaneously a day before. We were contacted immediately and got the information for the trip (as pick-up time, etc.). On the trip the crew was very considerated und respectfully. Our guide Josh was English speaking, so everybody was included. The programm and schedule was very clear and good you could always asks questions. It was a wonderful day with the Fantasy Travel Crew. Thank you for that experience! We would really recommend it for everyone!

Both Coral Island and Racha Island had the most beautiful ocean I've ever seen, perfect for swimming, snorkeling, SUP, clear kayaking, and a slide from the boat (super thrilling and the best!). Lunch was a buffet style with a limited number of items, but the taste was delicious. In the evening, we were served roll sushi and blue Hawaii drinks for evening tea, and they even prepared sashimi from the fish we caught while fishing. The crew members were very kind and helpful to our family, even though we couldn't understand Thai or English! I think it depends on the weather, but I would love to participate again.🎵 Guide: 5 Beautiful scenery on the boat: 5 Tour schedule: 4 Safety: 4 Boat condition: 5

Picked up on time without being late. After arriving at reception, we waited while enjoying drinks and snacks until all the tour members arrived. Once everyone was there, we received explanations about the schedule and important notes. After that, the tour departed. Water and soft drinks were always available for free on the boat. Upon arriving at the first remote island, we could choose to play on the beach or move to a snorkeling point. We chose snorkeling and enjoyed it for about 40 minutes. Several people felt seasick after getting back on the boat. It’s best to take seasickness medicine! I thought I saw reviews mentioning it was available for free before boarding, but there was no such announcement. We returned to the beach and had about an hour of free time. Afterward, we moved to the second remote island, where we were served pineapple and watermelon. Upon arrival, we were supposed to have a buffet lunch, but we were instead guided to our reserved parasailing activity. The staff quickly prepared everything, and before we knew it, we were up in the sky. We were dropped into the sea with a splash and experienced a sudden ascent, all within about a minute. After that, we had lunch and relaxed on the beach for about 2 hours before heading back. There was a water shower on the second beach, as well as rental bath towels and coin lockers. Despite it being the rainy season, we were blessed with good weather and had a fantastic day.

Our Thai tour guide, Charlie, speaks fluent Chinese, is very friendly, and provides very clear explanations. The crew members all have smiling faces and are happy to proactively assist guests. I joined the deep-sea diving at the last minute. The water at Racha Island is truly beautiful. There are already many fish right next to the boat. For an additional 1500 baht, they can help you take photos and videos. Many fish swim around you. One instructor takes care of two customers, which makes for a very good experience.
