The time flew by, and a special thank you to Ilya for that 🙏; he told us so many interesting things about Thailand along the way!

We went on this tour with guide Andrey. It was simply WOW! It was amazing, everything we saw was breathtaking. It's a shame we couldn't photograph the plankton, but the emotions at that moment were incredible. The only downside to this tour was the Thai minivan driver. Driving at 80-90 km/h on the serpentine roads, swerving to overtake without stopping... not only did the child get nauseous, but half the group was struggling not to puke. And most importantly, because of this, we arrived at each location much earlier than planned and simply waited, although other groups we saw at the same time arrived on time and went straight on without the 40-minute wait; their drivers were apparently more reasonable. I have no complaints about the tour itself or the guide, so thank you for that!

My family and I went on this excursion on April 9, 2026. I'd like to point out that we weren't surrounded by crowds of tourists, and there were only 10 of us. So, we had time to take pictures and admire Phuket's beauty. A special thank you to our guide, Adam. He knows a lot about the history and culture of not only Thailand, but other countries as well. It was very interesting to listen to, even our child did, and he asked questions afterwards, and Adam answered them all. The only thing that was a little uncomfortable was the road. It was 2.5 hours from our hotel. But that can't be changed, and in my opinion, such natural beauty is worth the sacrifice. Good luck to the guys at the agency. It's obvious they approach their work with passion and do everything for the comfort of tourists.

We went on a tour on April 8, 2026, and our guide, Alina, was always available. The minivan arrived precisely on time, with plenty of time at all the locations, and no rush. Alina shared a lot of interesting information along the way. There weren't many tourists at the locations, and the beauty was simply unreal. We took our time exploring everything. The highlight was, of course, the plankton. Thousands of lights lit up the water, and as a bonus, we swam under the rocks where crabs crawl out of the water at night. The only thing we could improve on regarding the plankton is for the boats to be positioned so that they form a single body of water and allow us to observe the plankton there (if that's technically possible, of course). 🙂 Then the effect would be simply amazing 💣 💥. We'll definitely contact you next time we're in Thailand.🙂

We really enjoyed the tour! There were only four of us! All the locations we visited were sparsely populated (sometimes we were completely alone), which made it perfect for photos and videos. The nature was absolutely beautiful! The views were relaxing! We saw plankton; there's a lot of it, but it needed complete darkness, so you couldn't capture it on your phone. While we were looking at plankton, a downpour started, but that only added to the excitement! Everything was fascinating! Special thanks to our guide, Victoria, a true spirit!

I really enjoyed it! The most striking impression was, of course, the plankton. Hundreds of twinkling stars in the water were a mesmerizing sight. Special thanks to the guide Alexander. I learned a lot, and the tour itself was very well organized 🔥

Thank you to Treasure Island for a rich tour of Thailand's vibrant and memorable sites. Special thanks to our guide, Ekaterina, for her engaging insights into Thailand, her attentiveness to each client, and the smooth organization of the tour. The rain that began at the end of the tour even added to the excitement. I highly recommend it 👍

The experience was absolutely amazing! The program was incredibly rich and, importantly, diverse. We were so impressed by the surrounding beauty, the friendly, cheerful, and inviting company, and, most importantly, by our exceptionally pleasant guide, Katerina! She's a highly knowledgeable, erudite, and well-prepared professional who will answer all your questions with kindness, expertise, and knowledge of Thai history and customs! Huge thanks to the "Treasure Island" company for such a fascinating and interesting itinerary, and a special thanks to our guide, Katya, who made our trip unforgettable!

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Treasure Island for this amazing trip – the Andaman Glow excursion exceeded all my expectations. From the very first minute, it was clear that the itinerary had been meticulously planned: a cozy gathering without early wake-up calls, comfortable transportation, friendly company, and – most importantly – a true atmosphere of adventure. I'd especially like to thank my guide, Ekaterina: her stories, deep local knowledge, light humor, and warm, attentive attitude made the day truly special. During the tour, we saw everything we dreamed of: turquoise seas, picturesque islands, hidden lagoons, and postcard-perfect sunsets. Every moment – from the boat and canoe rides to relaxing on the shore – was filled with joy, wonder, and tranquility. Thank you to Treasure Island and Ekaterina personally for an unforgettable day filled with natural beauty, warmth, and the feeling of being in the heart of a tropical paradise. If you're looking for a route that doesn't just show off the sights, but gives you emotions and impressions that will last a lifetime, this is it 👏🌴✨

A fantastic, action-packed tour, "The Andaman Glow," visited five locations in one day, and absolutely loved them all! The organization was excellent, and our guide, Alina, was a brilliant professional who shared so many interesting facts about Thailand, accompanied us, and made recommendations. Overall, we were very pleased! Thank you! 🩷

We went on the Andaman Glow tour with guide Andrey. We were thrilled. The trip was comfortable, the crowds were small (we were a group of four friends and two other guests), there was plenty of time at each stop, the minivan was comfortable, and the guide was friendly and explained everything. The plankton glow was unforgettable, I highly recommend it!

The tour was fantastic, so full of emotions! The guide Ekaterina was fantastic. I just fall in love with Thailand more and more each time!

We were very pleased with the tour. It was varied, interesting, unusual, and relaxing. We visited a temple, an incredible observation deck, took a boat ride, visited James Bond Island, enjoyed a beautiful sunset, and saw glowing plankton in the dark—a truly unusual wonder. Our guide, Alina, shared so many informative facts about Thailand that it was very interesting to listen to, not boring, and very fun. Alina has a great sense of humor. Thank you so much 🫶👍

I loved everything. It was just really hot at the Samet Nangshe viewpoint because we arrived during the hottest part of the day. Otherwise, it was a perfect excursion!

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. Guides provide extensive interesting information about Thailand and help with photos and videos at all locations.

The "Shine of Andaman" route includes a snow-white Buddhist temple with unusual architecture, a glass bridge with breathtaking panoramic views, the famous James Bond Island with scenic landscapes from the movie, a sea gypsy village, and sunset canoeing through mangrove forests. 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.
