Very satisfied with the itinerary, starting with breakfast. The Emerald Cave is particularly worth a visit, and the other islands plus snorkeling are very enjoyable. The big boat is very stable.

The beach on Koh Kradan Island is beautiful. Please visit the Emerald Cave. The lunch was delicious but not that great.

tour guide jack was really nice to us, and their photographer was very professional and took amazing shots of us. the cave experience was the best. There was a breakfast buffet before getting on the boat, which set of at 9:30am for the big boat so there was more than enough time to get ready, toilets at the breakfast buffet place is clean as well. Overall really good experience. My friends and i were the only english speaking tourists, and Jack and his team made sure to explain to us to his best abilities, and made sure we understood his guidance as well. Definitely worth it!

It was so much fun. Everyone except us was local, so it was even more fun. The local guide was so fun and kind, so I was happy. And most of all, I was happy to meet Nemo.

It was perfect. However, it was off-season, and although it said they could speak English, everyone except us spoke very little English. However, everyone was friendly, so I think you'll have a great time!!!
