Have a Wonderful Island Tour in the Paradise of Koh Samui

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.
