What a wonderful tour! Our guide, Katya, was absolutely fantastic 💥 She shared so many interesting facts about Thailand and the Thai people, took photos, and shared tips. The places were incredibly picturesque! We don't regret going on this tour, thank you for your hard work ❤️

We absolutely loved the tour! We returned to the hotel tired but very satisfied. The incredibly beautiful temple, the famous James Bond Island (without the crowds of tourists🤩), the unusual, colorful gypsy village on stilts, the delicious lunch, the glowing plankton—it was simply delightful and magical, an indescribable experience! Special thanks to the guide Alina, she shared so many interesting things not only about the tour locations but also about the Thai people and their lives in general!

I really enjoyed the tour. Everything was very well organized. The guide, Andrey, is a very engaging storyteller. He is prompt and attentive. I recommend this tour.

This was a wonderful excursion. We had a guide, Alina, and we were very lucky. During the excursion, Alina gave us so much information about Thailand that we couldn't have learned here in 10 days. Alina, thank you so much, you're amazing. Our main focus was the plankton, and it was incredible. Everyone should see it at least once. The excursion was perfectly organized, with a good vehicle, lunch, and snacks. We were very pleased.

It was all so great! And the glow of the plankton was a stunning sight, really beautiful!

We absolutely loved everything!!! Everything was so beautiful, I didn't expect it to be this beautiful!!! Especially those boat rides on the sea, such views 😻 We also had lunch on the glass bridge, one of the best dinners ever, in terms of spectacle!!! Not to mention the sparkling plankton, it was just like a fairy tale. The kayaking trip at night was so beautiful, I can't even describe the experience in words, it's hard. And those little diamonds in the sea, just beautiful, we were delighted!! Yesterday was a great day! Thank you so much 🙌🏻

Today I went on a new signature tour from Treasure Island, The Andaman Glow. The morning started off very captivating. Our guide, Alina, talked about Thailand, life, culture, and religion the entire way to the first location. I learned many new and interesting facts, even though I'm not a first-timer in Thailand. The 1.5 hours on the road flew by, for which Alina deserves enormous respect! The first stop on the program was a magnificent, snow-white Buddhist temple. In the midday sun, it shimmered like a huge snow palace, its walls artfully decorated with intricate patterns. Next, we visited the Beyond Skywalk observation deck. The panorama from this glass bridge is worth the visit. The numerous islands scattered across the bay are endlessly admirable. After visiting the glass bridge, the land tour turns into a boat tour. Cutting through the water on a traditional Thai longtail boat, we visited many fascinating places. We stopped near the famous James Bond Island, strolled through a floating village of sea gypsies, and visited a cave with bats. And the crowning highlight of this action-packed day was, of course, the glowing plankton. Looking at the sparkling blue lights in the water, for a moment I believed in magic, the true magic of Thailand's aquatic world. This beauty can't be captured on a phone, but it will forever remain in my memory, as will the entire day spent with guide Alina and our small, friendly tour group!

It was unforgettable. There were so many beautiful places, the emotions are beyond words. It was great that there weren't that many of us in the group and that the guide was Russian. Words can't describe this beauty; you have to experience it for yourself.

It was unforgettable. The guide told me a lot of interesting things.

I went on the Andaman Lights tour with Adam. I haven't had such great guides in a long time. I learned so much interesting information today! Thank you so much for a wonderful day!

Glowing plankton consists of microorganisms that emit a greenish-blue light when they come into contact with water. On the "Shine of Andaman" excursion, you'll witness this natural phenomenon in the dark caves of Phang Nga Bay. The plankton creates a mystical atmosphere, illuminating the night sea from within. Unfortunately, photographing the plankton requires special equipment, but the experience will stay with you forever.
The "Shine of Andaman" tour is an intensive full-day program that spans from morning until late evening. Hotel pickup begins in the morning, with return happening late in the evening after observing the glowing plankton. The program is structured so that activities constantly change, keeping you engaged throughout. The exact start time depends on your accommodation area — the driver arrives punctually for comfortable transfer.
The tour price includes round-trip transfer from your hotel in a comfortable minibus, all entrance fees to locations, meals throughout the day, sunset canoeing, services of a professional Russian-speaking guide and Thai assistant. Groups are small — around 9 people, ensuring maximum comfort and personalized attention.

The day concludes with observing glowing plankton in dark caves — this is the tour's main highlight, leaving unforgettable impressions and genuine amazement.
For a comfortable tour, bring swimwear (wear it under your clothes), a towel, dry change of clothes, SPF 50+ sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses. Don't forget comfortable beach footwear — flip-flops or sandals. For canoeing and cave visits, it's better to have a light cotton long-sleeved shirt. A camera or smartphone is essential for photos — the views are stunning, although the plankton cannot be photographed without special equipment.
Glowing plankton in Phang Nga Bay can be observed year-round, but the brightest glow occurs from November to April — this is the dry season with favorable weather conditions. The "Shine of Andaman" tour takes place in the evening when it gets dark, which is when the plankton is most visible. "Treasure Island" company carefully plans the route to arrive at locations without crowds of tourists, making the experience even more vivid and allowing for the best photos.
The "Shine of Andaman" tour is conducted in small groups — typically around 9 people, ensuring maximum comfort for each participant. Guides pay attention to all tourists, share many interesting facts about Thailand, answer questions, and help with photography. Thanks to the small group size and well-planned logistics, you'll be practically alone at most locations. This allows you to enjoy the beauty of nature without crowds and capture excellent photos and videos.
James Bond Island (Khao Phing Kan) got its name after the filming of the James Bond movie "The Man with the Golden Gun" in 1974. The main attraction is the Koh Tapu rock, which rises from the water and looks like a huge nail. On the "Shine of Andaman" tour, you'll visit this iconic island, feel like part of an adventure story, take photos against the backdrop of picturesque karst cliffs, and enjoy the unusual nature of Phang Nga Bay.
The snow-white Buddhist temple on the "Shine of Andaman" route impresses with its unusual architecture — many compare it to a snow castle or fairy-tale palace. The temple is very elegant, with numerous decorative elements done in white, creating an effect of purity and elevation. This is a new modern attraction with stunning views around. Against the backdrop of tropical greenery, the temple's snow-white walls look especially impressive and provide an opportunity to take unique photographs.
Sunset canoeing is one of the most romantic parts of the "Shine of Andaman" tour. You'll paddle on a traditional Thai boat through mangrove forests, passing through picturesque caves and grottos of Phang Nga Bay in the rays of the setting sun. This is a calm activity suitable for all ages and fitness levels. Thai rowers control the canoes, so you can completely relax, enjoy the beauty of nature, and take photos in the golden rays of sunset.
