Koh Samui is another paradise island situated in the Gulf of Thailand. It is one the the countries most popular tourist destinations. Like Phuket, Koh Samui has fabulous beaches, spa resorts and the local hospitality is out of this world. Be prepared for constant pampering. If you have a keen interest in wildlife or you are an avid adrenalin junkie, you will be amazed at the endless opportunities.

Koh Chang is one of Thailand’s smaller islands. Quieter and tranquil, time passes by slowly as you soak up the sun on this less populated island. Quaint bungalows are scattered along the coastline providing a picturesque chartering setting. Look out for the sea eagles and hornbills gliding above the mangroves, the array of wildlife is very impressive. It is a truly breathtaking place.
