Koh Samui, or simply Samui as it is locally referred to, is an idyllic tropical paradise located in the Gulf of Thailand and surrounded by over sixty other islands. As Thailand's second-largest island after Phuket, it is renowned for its palm-fringed beaches, coconut groves, lush mountainous rainforests, posh spas, and luxury resorts. The island is famous for its iconic landmarks such as the mesmerizing 12-meter tall golden Big Buddha statue and the unique and mystifying Grandmother and Grandfather rocks. With vibrant nightlife in places such as Chaweng and Lamai beach, gourmet dining experiences, and a wealth of water sports activities including diving and snorkeling, Koh Samui offers a quintessential blend of exotic natural beauty, cultural richness, and modern comforts that charm travelers worldwide.

Located in the heart of Southeast Asia, Thailand is a lively and culturally colorful destination known for its opulent royal palaces, ancient Buddhist temples, pristine white sandy beaches, and bustling markets. This tropical paradise, formerly known as Siam, is marked by the vibrancy of its bustling capital city, Bangkok, the historical charm of Chiang Mai, the beach resorts of Phuket and Pattaya, and the tranquil beauty of its numerous islands spread across the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand. Thailand's distinctive cuisine, with its rich flavors and aromas, combined with the locals' sparkling hospitality, completes an immersive travel experience that is uniquely Thai.

Lots of things to do, locals are friendly and the prices are ok. Watch out for the roads if you are driving a motorcycle. There are a lot of bars, restaurants, there’s something to do for everyone. Overal a great experience

I never feel so close to animals which I love the most. So amazing. To travel to Koh Samui is so safe and never meet such a good people. Guys this is a best place which I went. And I feel this could be possible to move there forever.
