Always love to take this day trip when im in Phuket, and for only 800 baht(haggled down from from 1400 baht),buffet meal and ALL soft drinks included in the price. I dont think you can argue with the price too much. :kissing:

The wife’s Aunty has a Thai film company and was also a set director on a few films, including some Bond films, where she designed some of the the sets. Did some sets on the Bridget Jones films in Thailand, amongst others and trained in the US under Oliver Stone.  

She was involved in the film, The Beach and many other films. So interesting talking to her about the film industry in Thailand and elsewhere. 

She designed our beach front coffee shop in Hua Hin, in the Bali style. She’s still involved in films, but also designs houses in Asia and elsewhere.

We went to Ko Kao Phing Kan once, many years ago, a beautiful place, but ruined by tourism. The smell of engine fuel and smoke was overwhelming. I can understand why people visit, but once was enough for me.

Thanks for sharing. Was there more than 20 years ago, but wouldn't return now. Better to visit some other secluded part of the beautiful south.

Yes, that is for sure .... and there are a shit load down in my neck of the woods .... the Adaman sea side of Thailand is incredibly beautiful the further South you go from Phuket ...

Great pictures ....

A lot of these type of tours have been scaled back to the many islands they used to go to .. due to pollution, mass hordes of people and the destroying of the reefs ..

This is an incredible place..
