We went on two excursions. We were impressed by the well-organized tours, the qualified guides, and the pleasant conversations. We learned a lot about Thailand during the tour, received detailed answers to all our questions, even those unrelated to the tour topic, and the trip was never boring. We had a delicious lunch at the restaurant. I recommend using the services of the "Ostrov Treasures" agency; we enjoyed working with their manager, Dmitry, both as a professional and a person.

The tour left only the most pleasant impressions! We visited many interesting places and learned a lot about the useful medicinal products available for purchase here. It was very educational and interesting. The captivating snake show was especially memorable. It was truly spectacular, and after the show, a few brave souls were even offered a taste of snake blood—an unusual and unforgettable experience! We also visited the Buddha, which offers an incredibly beautiful view. We were also lucky enough to meet a whole family of monkeys. It was fascinating to observe them in their natural habitat. At the end of the tour, we were taken to a large shopping center with all the necessary shops and plenty of places to eat or just stroll. I'd like to express my special thanks to our guide, Alina! Throughout the entire tour, she provided engaging insights into the country, sharing interesting facts and stories, making the time fly by. It was very interesting to listen, and there wasn't a moment of boredom. Thank you for a wonderfully organized tour!

On March 3, 2025, we took the Buddha Shopping Tour with guide Ksenia. It was a wonderful tour with a good balance of shopping, information on the history and special features of Thailand, and visits to several landmarks. We were especially pleased to be able to see the previously inaccessible Big Buddha. We visited all the points on time, without any delays. Along the way, Ksenia shared many interesting insights about the history, customs, and special features of Thailand.

This is our second excursion from Treasure Island. Both of these tours were led by our guide, Ksenia. She's a very pleasant and professional woman!

I really enjoyed it. Mira, the guide, was very engaging and eager to share information. It was clear she enjoyed what she did! Everything was clear, well-coordinated, and the timing was convenient and comfortable. I have two more excursions with OS ahead, and I'm already looking forward to it.
