Beyond its beaches, Koh Samui has temples, viewpoints and curious corners that are easy to see in a morning or an afternoon. This private Koh Samui island tour by van with driver takes you to the highlights without relying on taxis.
What you see
- The Big Buddha (Wat Phra Yai), a 12-metre golden statue on an islet joined to the shore.
- Wat Plai Laem, with its eighteen-armed Guanyin standing over a lake.
- The Hin Ta and Hin Yai rocks on the Lamai coast.
- Lad Koh viewpoint, overlooking the bays of Chaweng and Lamai.
- Optional stops at Na Muang waterfall or a local market.
Who it is for
Families, couples and groups of up to eight. Because it is private, you decide how long to spend at each stop and can change the order. It is ideal for a rest day between boat trips.
What to bring
Temples require covered shoulders and knees, so bring a sleeved top and trousers or a sarong. Also bring water, sunscreen and cash for entrance donations and shopping.
Best time
All year round. We recommend an early-morning or mid-afternoon start to avoid the heat; the tour still runs in the rainy season.
