(If you’d still like to add your feedback we’re always happy to have it – look for the link in your email!). To jump into the good stuff, here’s what you’ve had to say so far…

How would you rate The Koh Samui Guide out of five?

(It would get 1570 on its SAT!)

(That’s amazing). One person even said she’d made her sister buy it.

  • “Yes, and already have!” – 4%
  • “Absolutely” – 8%
  • “Definitely” – 10%

“It was brilliant! I read every bit of it and I’ve used the taxi app, I’ve been to a couple of restaurants. I hired a bicycle (and it’s been good) I refer to it a lot now I’m here too.” – Sallyanne

Which chapters of The Koh Samui Guide were most helpful?

The Koh Samui Guide Reader Survey Results Are Here

The top five didn’t completely surprise me:

  1. Things to do on Koh Samui
  2. Beaches and hotels (where to stay)
  3. Transport (how to get around)
  4. Exploring Koh Samui (day trips)
  5. Food and drink

What does surprise me is that bird-watching has the same size audience as caring for your children. (I mean, fair enough, you’re on vacation).

As for your favourites – noted! We’ll keep the activity and hotel recommendations coming through in your monthly updates emails.

If you could change one thing about The Koh Samui Guide, what would it be?
