Did a tour to the Phi Phi Islands via private yacht and it was really top! Communication with the agency was straightforward and my contact Stefan friendly with a pleasant pinch of humor. A lot of emphasis is placed on good service. Personal requests were taken into consideration, sometimes very spontaneously. The crew was super nice and the trip made even more enjoyable. 5/5 can recommend!

Amaar A. TripAdvisor

★★★★★

We booked the Jana 43ft sailing catamaran for a private day trip to Ang Thong Marine Park and it was truly the highlight of our stay in Koh Samui. The boat was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The crew was fantastic — professional, friendly, and extremely accommodating. The views were breathtaking, and we enjoyed a delicious lunch on board. A special moment was on the way back — we caught a fish! Highly recommend this experience.
