I enjoyed the tour, even despite the pouring rain. Guide Andrey made it very interesting and comfortable.

Important to known
I really enjoyed the tour, it was super organized! Our guide Ilya was the best ❤️ It was interesting, delicious, and beautiful! There was even Wi-Fi in the transfer. I highly recommend it.
As promised, I'm writing a review about the Treasure Island excursion. Getting up at 4 a.m. is certainly tough, but we were ahead of everyone else. Alexandra was our guide! She was a very nice girl! She explains and shows everything, it's very interesting, sociable, and always smiling. We had breakfast where we watched the sunrise. It was cloudy, but beautiful, worth seeing at least once. And I advise not to linger on the bridge, but to go higher up, the view is more beautiful from there ❤️❤️❤️. Then we went on a boat. Also beautiful! With a breeze, the boat is cool. Then 1.5 hours and we go to the elephants. Some ride, some don't. Then the next location is swimming and the Arbuzinka performance. Then lunch (by the way, the breakfast was decent: sausages, salami, eggs, a kind of porridge, vegetables, bread, it's quite possible to have a tasty snack). Lunch... Tom Yum, fried and boiled shrimp, fried chicken, fish, sauces, crab salad, mussels, rice with shrimp—in short, it was excellent! And the last stop was the waterfall. We swam a lot; the water was warm and beautiful. The drive was tiring, of course, but there was no other way. I really enjoyed everything! If I go to Thailand again, I'll only take excursions through the island. It was reliable and comfortable! The bus was a luxurious minivan (for 11 people), and it had air conditioning.
I want to write a short review after the "Tales of Koa-Lak" tour. It was a stunning tour!!! Watching the sunrise on the glass bridge was an unforgettable experience. The natural beauty was so stunning, it's hard to find the words. The stunning natural scenery is still before our eyes while boating. Rafting and swimming in the waterfall were both unusual and exciting for us. And of course, we can't help but mention those sweet and kind elephants; interacting with them makes you forget all your troubles. I want to thank our guide, Ilya, for always being with us and for sharing so much interesting information not only about the tour itself, but also about nature, Thailand's wildlife, and historical events. It was truly fascinating to listen to. It's wonderful that someone knows so much about this country. A big thank you to "Treasure Island."
An excellent excursion!!! We were thrilled! The early departure was a wonderful idea, and we were almost the first at all the points, without any crowds or hustle and bustle. The seafood lunch was simply amazing!! We didn't expect that! The guide Ilya was wonderful, very considerate, calm, and told us so many interesting things about Thailand! Thank you so much! I will definitely recommend you to everyone!
Today we went on the "Fairytale Khao Lak" tour with guide Andrey. We absolutely loved everything about it. Each location was a miniature celebration, a riot of colors, impressions, and incredible emotions. We really enjoyed the seafood lunch, just like in a good restaurant. We loved the clear organization and the guide's wealth of useful and interesting information. I definitely recommend the tour!
Having been on three excursions, I can definitely say that Andrey is the best guide! The combination of erudition, modesty, sincerity and caring for everyone made our tour truly a fairy tale. Andrey did not leave us for a minute, he always kept us in sight. The profound knowledge of the history of Thailand was amazing. A man with a huge pure soul who gives himself 100% to his work!
Today we went on the "Tales of Khao Lak" tour with Andrey, the super guide from Treasure Island! Guys, everything was sooooo well organized, and even the pouring rain didn't spoil the experience; in fact, it actually added to it. 💪😅 Andrey told us a lot about the history of Thailand; he's an amazing storyteller and an incredibly nice person! We watched the sunrise on a glass bridge 🫶, rafted down the river on bamboo rafts 🙏, interacted with elephants 😍😍😍, had lunch 🤩🤩🤩, and the waterfall was closed due to rising water levels. But by that point, we had no energy left for anything else. 😀 Guys, thank you so much for the tour! We're looking forward to the Similans, and I hope we'll go with Andrey again. 😇
What a wonderful trip! The views are simply stunning! The tour was very well organized, with comfortable transfers and an engaging guide. The lunch was beyond praise, and the tom yum was fantastic! I was especially impressed by the sunrise over the magical bay and the elephant ride! I highly recommend this tour; you won't regret it!
An interesting excursion, Alexandra was the best guide. It seemed like there was enough time at the locations and everything was quite interesting, but the whole experience was ruined by the very long transfer. We left at 4 a.m., drove for 2 hours to the bridge, took photos, and had a meal (1 hour felt like 15 minutes), then drove another 1.5 hours for a boat ride (about an hour plus or minus), then to the elephants (1.5 hours plus or minus), and then they took us to one location at a time (about 30 minutes per location), then you hopped back on and drove another 30 minutes to the waterfall. The return trip took us about 3 hours. In the end, we left the hotel at 4 a.m. and arrived at 6 p.m. 😂 So, if you choose this excursion, be prepared to spend most of your time on the transfer.
