Highlights
Step away from the crowded speedboats and embrace the "islander way of life" with our Private Longtail Boat Tour to Koh Madsum and Koh Tan. This private charter provides an intimate experience tailored to your group's pace. Your local captain will navigate you across the turquoise waters to Koh Tan, an island paradise renowned for its flourishing coral reefs and tranquil atmosphere. Here, you can immerse yourself in the warm sea for a snorkeling session among tropical fish. A unique feature of this tour is the opportunity to walk through Koh Tan’s lush mangrove forests on a scenic wooden boardwalk, perfect for nature photography and sightseeing. Afterward, your longtail boat will whisk you to the powdery white sands of Koh Madsum, famously known as Pig Island. This is your chance to meet, feed, and swim with the friendly resident pigs that have made this island a viral sensation. This private tour ensures a stress-free day of discovery in the most beautiful corners of Samui.

About Surat Thani
Surat Thani is a river city on Thailand's Gulf coast, the mainland gateway to Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Tao, and to Khao Sok's rainforest.
Surat Thani sits on the Tapi River in southern Thailand, a few kilometres from the Gulf coast, and is the main transport hub for the islands of Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Tao, which lie offshore. Ferries leave from piers outside the city, while the town centre keeps a riverfront promenade, markets and a night food market. Fishing boats work the river mouth and the bay.
