We enjoyed our tour. Our driver was excellent. Disappointed that we had booked & paid for a tour with English speaking guide who did not turn up.

Actually, the pagoda is not gold but built from yellow-colored tiles that make it look golden from a distance. (We only take you where you want to visit, it is your holidays and you are in control.

Khao Chedi, as the Wat Rattanakosin is also known, is located on a hill in southern Koh Samui. Just a couple of minutes uphill from the famous Laem Sor Pagoda.

Worthwhile experience. Guide was friendly and helpful. Took us where we wanted to go.
We booked the German guide as one of us spoke no English. It was so enjoyable and we had such a good time. The private guide / driver option is so much better and well worth every penny. You don’t have to wait for random people coming back late to the bus or taking a million selfies. You can just get on with what you are interested in. We were three ladies in the end (2 guests and one guide) and it made for a real fun day out. We saw everything we had intended to see and more. The company Mr Samui is family-owned and it was a pleasure being their customer and being looked after (proper Thai hospitality). Next time we go to Samui we will definitely choose them again.
We had an excellent time, our guide was punctual and happy to do the activities we had planned on what turned out to be a hot day. He tailored the tour to suit our ability to get a table at the Jungle club for lunch and nothing was too much trouble, even a pit stop at 7 Eleven on the way home for snacks. I would thoroughly recommend.
Mr S was waiting for us at reception in our hotel in his AC SUV. He was immediately welcoming and friendly and explained how our time would work - we booked 4 hours and could Go where we wanted and spend as much as time at any of our stops. He was a great guide, very informative and also gave us space to explore. We had water, towels to freshen up and a comfy ride with much welcomed AC! Highly recommend the coconut ice cream at the view point - delicious! We are a family of 3 and our 16 year old son was hesitant to do a guided tour but he loved it and thought Mr S was a great guide for the morning. I’ve visited Koh Samui before but never really explored the island so this was a great trip to experience all of the island highlights. Great value for money, highly recommend 😊
Reliable service. Good communication prior to our arrival. Flexible when our flight changed the very last moment. Thank you!
Exceptional tour provided by a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. His English language proficiency was excellent, enabling us to have meaningful conversations about Buddhism and Samui life. Cold water and towels were constantly refreshed. I could not ask for a better introduction to this stunning island. Thank You!!!! John
Mr Bin (apologies for spelling) picked us up on time and tailored our morning as we wanted and made great suggestions. He got us to places before the big trips turned up and when we mentioned that we would like to go to the Haven Elephant Cafe he even incorporated a visit there. A lovely man, very knowledgeable and would highly recommend.
DO NOT BOOK. THIS TOUR IS A SCAM. The tour operator is not helpful at all. They do not respond to either the customer support on the app or otherwise. They will make you pay and they will not accommodate you in any manner. Completely horrible experience and a total waste. Only book if you want to ruin your day and mood.
Great experience loved every minute
Great experience and really enjoyed guide Tony and driver Tong’s company and knowledge. Nothing was too much trouble with a 10 month old in tow!
An amazing customised trip with guide Tony and driver Tong. Nothing was too much trouble with a 10 month old in tow! Tony recommended Koh Samui key spots in the time we had. The van was very well air conditioned and most welcome in the heat! Only sour point was a Viator adviser declining us being picked up at our own hotel which was 5 minutes away from the Ritz and where we had to eventually take a taxi with baby. This was not something that was required I was told as we actually went past our hotel after pick up anyway (so a little annoyed). However this was not the guide/drivers fault but more Viator’s policy .
We had a great day on our private tour with Mr. Samui. We were picked up on time and traveled around the island in a comfortable, well air-conditioned bus. Our guide, Sixsun, was very friendly and planned the itinerary together with us. We visited beautiful viewpoints and temples, stopped at a beach for a swim and lunch, and even made a spontaneous stop for fresh coconut ice cream — a fun and authentic touch. Highly recommended, especially for families with young children. We saw a lot in a short time while staying comfortable in the heat.
It was such a gift to experience this tour on Songkran. Our guide went above and beyond to find us experiences (meeting elephants) even when businesses were closed for the holiday. Thank you for being so accommodating and generous with us.
Awan was our guide and provided a great custom tour and lunch place for us. He advised well on our time available and avoided a huge traffic jam so we returned to our ship on time. We enjoyed talking with him about many subjects. He was very pleasant and we enjoyed his company. We would highly recommend him!
Had our tour of Koh Samui today with our guide Sixsun, or Mr S, … he was an absolute star - very advocating, very thoughtful, checked what we wanted and delivered & more with a suggestion of seeing trained monkeys climbing the trees to get the coconuts down …. excellent, highly recommended
We had a wonderful day trip with Mr Samui!! Highly reccomend. We saw so much, we went right around the island. We were able to choose stops of interest when we collected. Our guide was fantastic, great company! He took us to a lovely resturant right on the sand amazing secluded beach. It was like a secret! The food was outstanding! Special goes to the actual vehicle! What a luxury! Book this company!
An excellent tour with an excellent guide, Nat. Experienced a great deal, but it never felt rushed. Made us want to come back and stay for longer. Thank you
We had a great time with our driver / guide ,Bin. He took us all over and we saw some amazing sights. He was very professional and we would highly recommend him.
Petch was the perfect host, very accommodating and easy going. Planned the day for us based on our preferences and packed a day of sightseeing in a record time, showing us that Koh Sami is worth coming back. If u prefer less sightseeing and more beach or shopping, Petch was happy to do that too. Totally recommended to everyone and every taste. And cheaper to go the 2 of us in an air coned big car, than it was to book a cruise excursion. 👍👍👍
Fantastic tour with our brilliant guide Sixson . Went to all the sites we wanted to see had lunch at The Jungle Club with amazing views. We also went to the West Coast away from the tourists which was our favourite part of the island. Amazing day out thanks to Sixson.
Wonderful! Our guide was very good. He helped us plan an itinerary based on our likes and interests. We had a great day on the island because of our guide. Clean, comfortable vehicle too!
Real personal service and good way to see Koh Samui for the four of us , visited temples , waterfall, and coconut farm to see the monkey Helping the farmer .
Super nice guy and very easy to work with on the tour. He was on time and reallly well prepared and knoledgable.
Wonderful experience thanks to our guide and driver. Both extremely nice and helpful. Tour itself also very interesting and intense. Great experience of driving on top of the car roof. I recommend it.
Our Koh Samui Custom Sightseeing Tour with Private Guide was honestly one of the highlights of our time in Koh Samui. Having a private guide made such a difference — we could set the pace, choose what interested us most, and avoid feeling rushed or herded around. The day felt completely tailored to us. Our guide 'Pat' was knowledgeable, hilarious, friendly, and flexible — sharing local history, cultural insights, and great recommendations along the way. We never felt rushed, and having private transport meant we could travel comfortably in the heat. If you’re visiting Koh Samui and want to see more than just the beaches, this is such a worthwhile way to experience the island. It felt personal, relaxed, and completely stress-free.
Amazing tour which you can customize your trip to your liking, Somsak was our guide for the day and he was 10/10! Recommend!
We had a limited amount of time as we were on a cruise. The private tour with Bin proved to be the best use of our time to see Koh Samui. We managed to see almost all highlights in our 5 hours. Bin was professional, knowledgable as well as being very kind and polite.
Very disapointed. Our 'guide' (who was very polite and who drove very carefully) was a driver and not the professional guide that was mentioned in the description. His english was so limited that we did not get ANY information about the country, its people, the sites... that we had to visit on our own.
Lam was excellent..He speaks good English, has a lovely mini bus with great AC. Lam took us to the popular sights Temples being amazing. He also fitted in a beach he recommended,It was exactly what we were looking for. Quiet pretty and a restaurant made it complete. Lovely day. Thanks Lam
My fiancé and I had an absolutely incredible experience with Mr. Samui in Koh Samui and cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, everything was seamless and professional. Our tour guide, Nat, truly made the day unforgettable. Nat was right on time, extremely friendly, and incredibly attentive to everything we wanted to see and do. Nat spoke good English which was a huge help and made the entire experience smooth, informative, and enjoyable. Nat took us everywhere we wanted to go, never rushed us, and made sure we were comfortable and having fun the entire time. Nat also shared great background information about the locations and temples we visited, which added so much meaning and context to the experience rather than just sightseeing. You could tell Nat genuinely cared about making our tour special and personalized. If you’re visiting Koh Samui and want a stress-free, customized tour with an amazing guide, Mr. Samui and Nat are the way to go. Truly a 5-star experience—we would book again in a heartbeat! The cost per person was more than worth it, we ended up extending our tour almost 3 extra hours. We had a private SUV, very clean and stocked with cold waters, cold towels, plenty of room for shopping bags, and AC on full blast.
Lovely 4 hour experience with our guide exploring Koh Samui. Sixsun was kind and knowledgeable and very flexible. He had ideas of where to take us and let us prioritize what was most important. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a way to explore the island with limited time! Also, the car was great and had powerful AC which we really appreciated in this weather!
Super nice guide! Very flexible. He took us to relevant and interesting sites. Guide had great insight.
Wonderful journey with Phechr he was excellent and showed us all around the island and gave us an excellent presentation on all the temples and places we visited . Recommended a lovely restaurant for lunch we had a great day and would definitely use your services again
This was a perfect half day tour of the island. Our driver, Mr Thai, was pleasant and very informative of the sites, customs and history of the area. We selected about nine different sites and he crafted our trip as a big loop around the island. The van was new and spotless, with four reclining lounge seats with adjustable foot rests. Very comfortable ride.
The guide was excellent. Tailored the day to what we wanted, helped us out exchanging money so we could get ice cream, gave us a coconut drink and came back after he dropped us off because e we left a phone in the car. He was very friendly and very knowledgeable.
Our driver/guide Petch was very nice, good English, and accommodating. He took us to see elephant sanctuary at our request then circled the island with several stops. Safe driver and helped us with ATM and snacks. He worked hard to answer our questions and Explain Buddhism. Highly recommend Petch and tour.
Petch was our tour guide & he was absolutely the best! We told him what we liked to do in general & he guided us to everything we loved! We could totally see ourselves living here one day & I’m confident his tour was a big part of that. He had a ton of knowledge, took us to a Michelin Star rated restaurant (we are foodies) and all the best shopping locations. He was able to answer all of our questions & was so kind. Will recommend the island & Petch to everyone!
It was exactly as advertised. We had four hours of custom sightseeing. The driver was responsive to our requests and took us on a tour of Koh Samui that completely satisfied our expectations.
Great way to spend the day and got to see so much with a great guide! Loved guide and the way we were taken care of. Our expectations were met for the day! Kay
I spontaneously booked a sightseeing tour on the second day of my arrival on Koh Samui. Shortly after booking, I was contacted via WhatsApp and given all the further information. (Especially the reminder that you should wear appropriate clothing when visiting temples.) Our wonderful guide, Aekky, was funny and told us great things about Thailand and Koh Samui. He also gave us a short language course with three words we could use (sorry, thank you and hello). It was a really funny tour. I can recommend this tour to everyone, to see beautiful attractions of the island, especially if Aekky is your guide.
Very professional! He waited for us at the tender drop-off and was completely at our disposal. He took us on a tour of Koh Samui in a new, luxurious, and very comfortable minivan. We were in Koh Samui on January 7, 2026. Italian family
Petch was an amazing tour guide and ready to plan our day on the fly. He worked with us to ensure we saw all the sights we wanted and suggested more and kept us on track. I'd highly recommend working with Mr. Samui to get a good feel for the island with a knowledgeable and friendly guide!
Private tour was very accessible for someone using a mobility assist; the guide were helpful and accommodating Also knowledgeable. Loved the fresh coconut. Would definitely recommend!!
Mr Thai was very friendly and knowledgeable he gave us options as to where he would take us. He has a very luxurious van which was very comfortable. We went to feed the elephants saw the big Buddha and travelled the island. Great tour
Mr. Samui is beyond accommodating and attentive of showing us around the island of Kol Samui. He’s very communicative and joyful to be around. Would highly recommend him to anyone who’s visiting Kol Samui to book him for private group tour around the island.
Khao loe was amazing he has great knowledge of the Island and the hidden gems. His english and sense of humor were also fantastic and he really made the tour so memorable
Our customized itinerarynwith time limitation was accommodated and the guide quite informative & responsive to our questions
Our driver/guide Nat was extremely thoughtful and made our visit worthwhile. The elephant sanctuary was not on the schedule but he made sure we were there first thing in the morning and we avoided the tour groups. We wanted to visit temples and we sure did! All of them different and interesting. The day went very fast. Koh Samui is definitely a must see in Thailand!
Its was a great tour with Aeekky the guide He was great , He explained of everything he made us a great expiriens and its was a lot of fun .
