Itinerary
Your transfer will pick you up at 9 AM from the hotel or 10 AM from the airport and drive you to the coastal town of Rayong, a journey that typically takes about three hours, depending on traffic. From Rayong, we'll take a short 30-minute ferry ride to Koh Samet and then a short drive to your hotel for the next three nights.
To arrange your pickup and drop-off, please provide your Bangkok hotel or preferred airport when booking with our sales team. This information is required to confirm your transfer.
Koh Samet is a small, serene island known for its crystal-clear waters, white-sand beaches, and relaxed vibe. It's the perfect spot for a quick getaway, offering everything from peaceful beachfront lounging to vibrant nightlife. Our hotel in Koh Samet, Sai Kaew Beach Resort is a beautiful beachfront getaway, offering a mix of modern comfort and tropical charm. With its direct access to the lively Sai Kaew beach, the resort features stylish rooms, multiple swimming pools, a beachside restaurant, and a spa, making it an ideal spot for both relaxation and adventure in a vibrant island setting.
Upon checking in, the rest of the day is free.
If you arrive later than the designated pick up time, there is the possibility to arrange a private boat transfer for an extra fee - please enquire with our sales team.

Whilst this itinerary has been designed to complement a number of our group tours, we wish to point out that this extension is not a group experience, so you are unlikely to be travelling with other Explore customers.

The hotel at Koh Samet was very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. Dinner at the hotel was good though pricey. Menu prices had a service charge and VAT added when you paid the bill. We ate out at Buddies bar along the beach after the first night. It was only a couple of hours from Bangkok which saved time on our busy schedule.
