• Our Semi-Private excursions are intimate tours – with each group on a private air-conditioned minivan and maximum 3 minivans lead by our tour guide
• We do our best to follow times and routes that are designed to stay away from large groups of tourists so our guests can discover Koh Samui and its surroundings intimately at a relaxed pace.
• Tours are led by local licensed guides with the highest safety standards on Koh Samui
• We are committed to getting you back to the cruise ship pier at the time you specified
• On our semi-private option, our driver would be able to accommodate your request subject to guidance by our guide who will be responsible for the entire 3 minivans. We found that this arrangement provides a good level of service where the guide can explain the point of interest as well as provide information about Thai culture and practice of the day.

Your cruise ship will transfer you to Nathon Pier, Ko Samui, where our team will be waiting to welcome you. Please wait at your cruise line’s arrival tent, and look out for our team, waiting just outside the fenced area, holding a welcoming sign. Please ensure that you arrive at Nathon pier slightly before the meeting time we had advised you in our confirmation email as we do not want you to miss some great time on this tour.

    Next, we will visit the Guan Yu shrine featuring a massive copy of Guan Yu`s head. The sculpture has a red face, which seems to radiate anger, and sits like an avenging force above the shrine complex. Guan Yu played a big role during the civil war that led to the demise of the Han Dynasty.
