Average

The drive from Phuket to Surin isn't 1.5 hours but actually 2.5 hours & I hadn't bought my headphones along so would have planned better if Id known this. The aircon in the van was freezing & had to use my towel as a cover. Breakfast & dinner at the boat pier was poor. Lunch at the National Park was disappointing as I couldn't eat anything since the food was so spicy. I had to order from the tuckshop. No variety of did at the pier and I ended up eating ice cream for dinner on return to the pier. Snorkeling was fine and the weather was good. Although we weren't told about the places we stopped to snorkel at. The Moken village was quite boring as all of the market stands sell the same items.

The best trip we've ever been to, with exceptional organization.

It was a great experience, with great instructors and program, and was organized exceptionally. First we had breakfast in their base, they provided us with every equipment we might need (fins, goggles, gopro). Then we departed from the pier and headed towards big adventure. It was all-inclusive day - water and coke + snack during the day, also very delicious thai lunch on the island. After the adventure we had dinner, and delicious homemade coconut ice cream and headed back to our hotels.

Surin Islands Day Tour

This was a great excursion, but it does make for a long day of travelling to get to the Surin islands. If you’re willing to make the effort these islands are amazing, with spectacular reefs and super clear water. But unless you’re staying near the marina be prepared to spend most of the day driving to and from the dock. Personally, I’m glad I did it, but that’s me. 😊😊😊

Amazing experience with Seastar

The overall trip was just amazing. Seastar is a wonderful tour company with trained staff. We started with a detailed briefing with a light breakfast. They provided nausea tablets, snorkel masks and flippers to all. The journey to the snorkelling spots was a little rocky because of the sea, but once we reached, it was amazing. We don’t know how to swim so there was a guide who took us snorkelling. The views were beautiful, lots of corals and fish. Really close view even while snorkelling. Overall a very recommended tour, although the travel is pretty long.

Disappointing. Tour went ahead. But without customer assistance and support was close to zero

Not the most assistive agency if you want to book your tours with. Post booking the tour with the agency. There was no longer correspondence from the operator online apart from pre-sent emails for the tour booked. We had to arrange for transport which was part of the package. But we could not contact the agency. Our car battery went flat, so we needed to organise the transport, but customer support totally ghosted. We had to organise transport on our own. And we could not get our clarifications on when the tour started. I will never book through agencies again and if I need to book any tours in the future. I will go directly with the tour operator (like seastar or love Andaman). Don’t waste your time and stress out. I would not have give a poor rating if they least responded online

Amazing experience

One of the best tour operator. Very nice and organised team to go out sea with. Snorkeling spots were super enjoyable as we were able to see different fishes and corals.

Perfect place for snorkling,swimming and camping

Our group, consisting of families and members of all ages from around the world, enjoyed a fantastic trip with an experienced tour guide, friendly lifeguards, and delicious meals and snacks, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We particularly loved the crystal clear snorkeling at Paradise - the Surin Island.

Wonderful trip in magical Surin water.

Surin was breathtaking place. Clear waters. We had a time snorkelling in the clear waters. Being a non swimmers crew helped us to enjoy it. Amazing place and wonderful staff. Awesome trip. Thanks for a great time.
