Fun island trip with friendly staff

The pigs were exactly as entertaining as everyone says, and snorkeling was better than expected. It did feel a little crowded on the beach at one point, but we still had enough space to enjoy ourselves.

Good day out on the ocean

Great day out on the bay, snorkelling at the reef and then swimming and having a cold beer on Pig Island. Picked up from our hotel in a bus already occupied by some very nice tourists, dropped off at the wharf and waited for another bus load, on the speedboat was very fast, complimentary soft drinks and water provided, or beer for a fee. Stopped for an hour or so on the reef for a snorkelling adventure, sadly the reef was badly trampled by people who have no brains. There was some sea life such as stingrays, colourful fish and turtles. Onto Pig Island which was very crowded and very hot, but plenty of shade was available. Lots of pigs ambling about for our entertainment, and lots of dogs also. Enjoyed the facilities and water, and a quiet cold beer and after 90 minutes ferried back to the wharf for a very nice and generous buffet luncheon before being transported back to out hotel mid-afternoon. A great day provided by professional and experience crews.

Fresh water for Pigs!!

The tour it self was great. There were very kind & Friendly staffs with safe and clean boat. The schedule was on time. I had a good time in this island. However, I was disappointed with the conditions the pigs lived in. The pigs cannot reach fresh water at all. They have to beg a bottle of water to tourist but not enough. Their working conditions are harsh I hope the tour company does something about it because they make money from pigs. Ask donation, or using just a few % of money to pig for fresh water will be the appreciated. I hope you agree with this idea and spread in here.

Don’t go

This was a very bad experience. The driver collected us in a van which stank of cigarettes and drove way over the speed limit in order to get us to the boats where we had a 45 minute wait before departure. The boat was packed. we arrived at the snorkelling spot at the same time as all the other boats. Probably 150 people in total. snorkelling was impossible because the current was so strong that we were getting blown away from the boats. The boat guys had to throw ropes out to get us back in safely. One man cut his leg on the propeller the water was so choppy. Then we went to pig Island, which was fun. The boat crew were great, it wasn’t their fault. They obviously go wherever the boss tells them to. Very unsafe trip and definitely not recommended with children.

Probably better during high tide

Madsum Island (pig island) was fun but essentially just pigs on an island! The snorkelling was disappointing. I was not aware that water levels are about 1 -2 metres lower at this time of year (August) and so swimming over the coral was not really possible. It is also getting bleached by warming waters and some people were damaging it by kicking and standing on it - I do not think this is a responsible way to run a tour and all visitors should be told not to touch the coral. Lunch was great but again the kayaking was not possible due to the really low water level. Maybe the trip would be better during high tide. Our guide was very enthusiastic however and took lots of photos which he sent on to us which was great.

Day trip to Pig Island

It was a great trip, friendly tour guide, great lunch. Lovely island and great to see the pigs. Pick up and drop off all good. Only comment is that tour description says 2 hours at Koh Tao snorkelling, this was 45 mins snorkelling off the boat near the island. Also said 4 hours on Pig island but was only 3 hours Overall enjoyed the experience and good value but would have been good to have a bit longer on the island.
