Reviews: [Tien Beach - the most beautiful ] One-day tour to Ko Lan in Pattaya, Thailand
Guest User2026-01-01
For this price, the value for money is almost unbeatable. Our guide, Ah Si, knew the route well and took meticulous care of us along the way. I've forgotten the name of the guide/photographer, but he took photos for all the families along the way and provided a download link in the evening. Free towels and seasickness medication were provided, and a songthaew (shared taxi) was arranged for pick-up and drop-off. The only downsides were that the water at the snorkeling spot was a bit murky, and the provided snorkeling mask leaked slightly, affecting the experience. I recommend bringing your own snorkeling mask for hygiene and reliability. Overall, it was a very good one-day island tour.

Very good experience, the Chinese tour guide is very responsible for the arrangements throughout the trip, and the shops that cooperated are very good. The precautions are explained very comprehensively, and the prices are reasonable. They will not cheat people casually. It is trustworthy.

A double-decker car was arranged to pick us up from the hotel. It was a lazy day trip, so we didn't have to get up early. I was very satisfied with the itinerary, and the price was reasonable. There was even a photographer to take pictures. We had a lot of fun on the rides, and we even saw a pirate ship on the way back.

Hotel pick-up and drop-off were prompt, the tour guide spoke Chinese, and every detail was well arranged. The activities were plentiful, and there was even free photo opportunities. Everything was packed up at the end, making for a truly unforgettable day on Koh Larn. The kids had a blast!
Reviews: Private Car Tour Departing from Bangkok: Sanctuary of Truth + Seven Gems Mountain (Wat Khao Chi Chan) + Nong Nooch Tropical Botanical Garden + Tutu Beach
Guest User2025-11-19
My favorite part of the tour was the Sanctuary of Truth. Kudos to Pamela, our Filipino guide, who explained the history and meaning behind the carvings beautifully. We were amazed, but with the 1.5-hour tour, we didn’t have time to take our own photos before rushing to the next stop. At Nong Nooch Garden, it was extremely hot, and although lunch was included, the food wasn’t good—I even found a vegetable worm in my salad and the staff didn’t react. We watched a show, but the driver told us to leave before exploring. The elephant show also made me feel sad. The garden tour felt more for kids. At Buddha Mountain we only had 5–10 minutes, and at Tutu Beach we had to buy food just to sit. The worst part was the unexpected 400 THB “OT” fee, never mentioned beforehand. Everything felt rushed because the driver wanted to finish by 5 PM. It defeated the purpose of booking a private car. Beautiful places, but overall rushed, stressful, and not worth the extra cost.
Reviews: Instant confirmation: Pattaya 69 Show/79 Show/89 Show/99 Show

I’m amazed with the performances for those who went before probably they find it not worth it, I went for ping pong show in Phuket but it was nothing like this. The stage and the performance element and the song selection was superb. Kudos to the performers keeping up the enthusiasm even though they have to perform the same thing again and again. If you were to go to agogo bar it is cheaper but they charge you extra if you were to touch the girls but for this they kind of allow you to touch as part of the performance and what you see is what you paid for, there is no extra charges. Trip also arranged this well with clear directions, no confusion in meeting point. Highly recommended in Pattaya if you were to watch, and they say 6996 is the most classic Pattaya show, so I started with that
