Things to do in Big Buddha Temple (Wat Phra Yai)

We went with our 10 and 4 years old sons. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience especially for the kids. The rescued elephants are well looked after in there. It was good value for money. We fed and bathed the elephants. We also did Thai dye and prepared papaya salad. Highly recommended for families with kids. Better to go on a cloudy day as the elephants prefer cooler day.

I had the chance to join a half-day trip in Samui and it was absolutely amazing. Everything was well organized and fun from beginning to end. Our guide, Man, was so nice, friendly, and took great care of everyone. He really made the trip extra special. If you're visiting Samui, I highly recommend this tour — totally worth it!

My wife suddenly got sick and I canceled the tour an hour before departure, but they called and asked if I wanted to go tomorrow. Unfortunately, it was the last day so we couldn't join them, but I appreciate their kind service. I'll definitely use it next time.

relaxing environment and friendly services. very nice place surrounded by trees and small huts. everything is clean. the steam room with nice lemongrass smell and the spa is very beautiful. must try their home made ginger lemongrass tea after spa. the spa service is good and enjoyable. there is shuttle bus servie. highly recommended.

it was an informative and enriching hands-on experience. We were so close to the elephants which were so friendly and loving. An excellent time learning about conservation

It was a really good and well-organized tour. They picked us up at the hotel lobby on time and the tour proceeded according to the schedule. Our guide, Ken, led the entire tour in a friendly and fun way, and the rest of the staff were also very friendly. The boat ride was a bit long, but once we arrived and started snorkeling, it was so beautiful that we forgot all about it. In particular, the last island we visited, Koh Phangan? I really liked it! It was so beautiful that I regretted that the time was a bit short. Lunch was not great, but it was still delicious. Chicken curry, shrimp tempura, and pineapple were served. It was fun to eat because it felt like Thai home cooking. I highly recommend this tour as a must-do in Koh Samui!

There will be pick-up and drop-off service! The coaches are super nice and will help take photos and videos! I took a lot of videos and photos that I like very much! Thank you to the coaches for their care! I had a lot of fun! ❤️

My sister and I had the most wonderful time on this tour and would highly recommend it. The staff on the boat were very attentive to everyone’s needs. The ride over was very choppy and the ride back we got rained on. But we still had a great time at the marine national park and the staff made us feel safe and cared for. It was the little touches of stopping the boat to make sure we were okay, handing out plastic bags to cover our stuff in the rain, moving guests to make them more comfortable, helping us on and off the boat and cleaning our feet before we got in. They also had us at the different locations before the bigger tours came in so we got to have a more private and peaceful experience in each spot. There’s so many tours to choose from and I couldn’t recommend this one more.
