Not long ago, the Russian media was hot on the topic of bankruptcy of famous tour operators, which is why thousands of tourists from Russia never got to have their long-awaited vacation. This misfortune also affected our couples who were planning a romantic trip and wedding ceremony on Samui. No one could have imagined that one of the most reputable and oldest operators in the tourist services market, the tour operator "Neva", would declare bankruptcy. It so happened that several of our couples were forced to cancel their wedding ceremony in Thailand and reschedule their trip; but there were also those who did not lose their heads and quickly purchased a tour to Samui from another travel agency or even organized their honeymoon on their own, directly purchasing air tickets and booking a hotel.
Now the tourist services market is slowly returning to normal and travel lovers are again booking tours to Thailand in anticipation of the new tourist season. Sales and booking of tours for the New Year holidays are in full swing, when all regions of Thailand experience the maximum influx of tourists from Russia. Who doesn’t dream of a winter vacation in a warm country!?
We couldn’t help but touch on the topic of “tours to Samui”, as our couples who are planning wedding ceremony on Samui, often ask us questions about how to get to our paradise island. Unfortunately, there is no direct flight yet, so you can get to Samui with a transfer in Bangkok or Phuket. If the honeymoon is planned for 1-2 weeks, then in most cases it is more profitable to buy a ready-made tour than to organize the trip yourself. We conducted a small study among tour operators, finding out who couples can turn to for tours to Samui.
1. Tez Tour is a tour operator with more than 20 years of history. The company offers combined tours Samui + Bangkok, Samui + Pattaya. Tours can be purchased at authorized agencies or online, directly from the company's website.
2. Natalie-tours is a company that has been on the market for more than two decades, whose services are used annually by over 800 thousand people. The tour operator offers combined tours Phuket + Samui with departure from Moscow.
3. Sunrise Tour is a tour operator specializing in family vacations, which was awarded the prestigious Travel Russian Awards in 2013. The company offers its clients tours to Samui with transit through Bangkok. It is impossible not to note the company's convenient service - clients can leave a request for a call back from the website to receive advice from an agency representative by phone.
4. Pegas touristic is one of the leaders of the Russian tourism industry and one of the largest international tourism companies. The company's history began in the last quarter of the twentieth century. The tour operator offers combined tours Bangkok + Samui, Phuket + Samui.
5. Biblio-Globus - the tour operator's offer includes combined tours Phuket + Samui, Bangkok + Samui.
In our short note we provided information on large tour operators that have offices in almost every region of Russia. If you still decide to travel to Samui on your own, we will be happy to help you choose a hotel and also advise you on transfers to the island from Bangkok.
