Regarding the experience and excluding the van transfer, it was very good. During snorkelling we actually saw several different fish that I have not seen again (unicornfish, huge longtom, clown fish etc.), turtles and some people show a sea snake. The islands and beaches were pristine while the sand was like flour and i really liked both. Food was a decent thai buffet. Boat was fine and the guides were very helpful and explained everything. So i would rate this a 4.5. Now regarding the van transfer, the driver hit a dog on the return route. I do not see how/why since i was sitting on the rear seats, neither do I know the Thai law regarding this. From my side I would advice : - Deploy a warning triangle to inform other vehicles. - Stop the Van outside the road instead of on the road next time, so that the following van or car will not crash on your rear. Note i do not take the van/dog event in consideration for my rating.
