The trip, in short

Mu Ko Ang Thong is the archipelago that gave Alex Garland the idea for The Beach: forty-two islands of limestone in shallow green water, uninhabited apart from a ranger station.

The day’s centrepiece is Koh Mae Ko, where a steep 500-metre climb ends at a viewpoint over Talay Nai — a saltwater lake sealed inside the island, connected to the sea only underground. Then Koh Wua Talap for the second viewpoint, and kayaking through the channels.

The Gulf’s weather calendar is the opposite of the Andaman’s: this trip is at its best between February and September.

  • The Emerald Lake viewpoint on Koh Mae Ko

Who you are contracting with

We are the organiser of this service

Organiser

We contract for this service as principal — it is operated by us, or by a local supplier engaged by us in our own name in Thailand. Your contract is with us, not with the driver, guide, captain or boat operator, and we carry the obligation to deliver it as described.

This service is performed in Thailand, by our Bangkok operation. Access Transit Express, registered in Indonesia, is the merchant of record for the payment: the charge, the invoice and any refund come from us, and your statement reads ACCESSTRANSITEXPRESS.

Our role, in full

Cancellation & refunds

Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund to the card you paid with. Cancel later than that and the booking is non-refundable, because the vehicle, seat or greeter has already been committed.

  • Refunds are issued within one business day and reach your card in 5–10 business days, depending on your bank.
  • If we cancel — weather, a marine department closure, a mechanical failure — you choose a new date or a full refund, whenever we cancel.
  • No-shows and cancellations inside the window are not refundable. We will always try to move you to another date first.
