We rented our private boat for a morning trip to pig island. It was a great trip, not too busy and the kids loved snorkeling and feeding the pigs. Defo a must do here on Samui

The pigs were cute, but they didn’t seem very interested unless you had food for them. The beach was okay, but it wasn’t as nice as I hoped. The boat ride was fine, but the whole tour felt a bit overpriced for what it was. I’d only recommend it if you really love pigs.

The tour was good, but the island was smaller than I expected. The pigs were adorable, and the beach was relaxing, but there wasn’t much else to do. The guides were friendly and kept things running smoothly. It’s a nice trip if you want something quick and easy.

This was a good experience overall. The pigs were cute, but they didn’t stay around for long, which was a little disappointing. The island itself is really beautiful, though, and the boat ride was fun. Bring water shoes if you plan to swim—there are a few rocks.

We enjoyed the tour, but I was hoping for a bit more interaction with the pigs. The beach was clean and quiet, and the boat ride was smooth. Our guide was great and explained a lot about the area. It’s worth doing, just don’t expect to spend hours with the pigs.
