Great half day tour, from booking the night before for a next morning trip everything was well communicated and very promptly. The tour itself was made so much better by our guide and driver who took great care of us for the whole trip. Our guide was knowledgeable, courteous and interacted with us for the majority of the trip. Would recommend 👍🏻

Wir haben heute die Tour zum Angthong NationalPark gemacht. Die Tour ist sehr gut organisiert. Sehr nettes zuvorkommendes Personal, gutes Essen. Ich habe meine Schuhe im Bus vergessen. Eine Stunde später konnte ich sie schon an der Rezeption abholen. Einfach klasse. Vielen Dank für diesen tollen Tag.

I highly recommend picking this company for the tours they do. We went looking for pink dolphins, which we saw, snorkeling and then pig island. Lunch was included. It was a fantastic day
Pig Island is Koh Madsum, a small island in the Gulf of Thailand three to four kilometres south of Koh Samui's Thong Krut pier. It lies just east of Koh Tan, the bigger island you can see from the Thong Krut pier, and both belong to Surat Thani province. On a map, look for the two islands below the southern tip of Samui.
Ten to twenty minutes by speedboat from Thong Krut on a calm day, up to half an hour in chop or on a longtail, and about thirty minutes on the catamaran from Bang Kao. From Chaweng the van ride to the pier is the longer part of the journey, around forty five minutes; from Lamai it is closer to twenty five.
Several places share the nickname. The Bahamas has Big Major Cay with its swimming pigs. Greece has a piggy island near Skiathos. Searches for "Pig Island Phuket" usually mean this one, reached from Koh Samui, because Phuket has no equivalent. If you are in Phuket, this is a different coast and a different trip.
The island sits at about 9.370 north, 99.977 east. The pigs live on the north-facing beach, the side the boats come in on.
Every boat that stops at the pigs, with live prices.
It is a separate island just off Koh Samui, and every visit starts on Samui. Administratively both are in Surat Thani province.
From Thong Krut and the south coast beaches you can see Koh Tan clearly; Koh Madsum sits just beyond it.
No. The pigs are here, in the Gulf, off Koh Samui.
