The Grand Sea Discovery tour was a real highlight! Excellent value for money: Booked on Klook for only €90 for two people instead of around €140 on other platforms. The crew was super friendly, and there was unlimited water, Pepsi, and Pepsi Zero. Lunch was good and perfectly adequate. The first viewpoint requires some stamina, the second (Emerald Lake) is shorter but very steep. We even managed it in Crocs/flip-flops – but if you're unsure, you should choose sturdy footwear. The speedboat was quite loud; earplugs are recommended. The boat was full but not overcrowded. Overall, a very well-organized tour, great impressions, and highly recommended.

The itinerary was great as we saw lots of different temples. Each stop was about 30 minutes long, enough to take some good pics. The tour also provided a simple but tasty Thai lunch buffet with a spectacular view of the island. Best part though was the ride atop the pick up! Everyone had a chance to ride if they wanted!

Highly recommend this tour! It was well-organised and the guide also swopped the different spots around depending on the crowd level so we can have a better experience :)

Brilliant and great fun half day with these guys..Sunny our guide was very knowledgeable, entertaining and also very funny..pick up was on time and all the places we visit were amazing.Busy but that's why they're tourist destinations..Could leave bags etc in the van..You'll need long trousers and shoulders covered as 3 of the sites are religious monuments.Highly recommended.Thank you Sunny and the driver for a brilliant tour.

We rented a car with driver for 4 hours to explore Koh Samui – and I’m honestly annoyed I didn’t do it earlier. No stress with scooters, no dying in the heat, no trying to figure out Google Maps with 3G and a sunstroke. Just a chill AC ride from spot to spot with a local who actually knows the island.
