In summer, when the west coast of Thailand's peninsula is the rainy season, the east coast — Koh Samui and nearby islands — is much sunnier and drier. This itinerary is specially recommended to those whose want a unique and relaxing Thailand island tour in summer, which is the best time to tour charming Koh Samui.
It is a trip of tropical beaches, natural wonders, island cuisine, and joyful entertainment. Nice accommodation and worry-free transfers, a few days' island hopping, and some free days are provided. All you need to do is fully enjoy a well-arranged holiday.

Excellent experience in Bangkok
Ying was our guide in Bangkok. She was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. She knew exactly how to move us through crowds quickly so that we could see all we wanted to say and made good recommendations for other things we were interested in. I would not hesitate to recommend Ying or anyone that helped us at Asia highlights More
