Koh Samui

Koh Samui is a small tropical island in the Gulf of Siam. A hilly, jungle interior with spectacular views and waterfalls takes visitors down to perfect white sand beaches and clear blue water. Sunny skies and calm seas prevail for most months of the year and in particular during the UK summer.

Large parts of the island remain unspoiled, with the tallest buildings rising no higher than the tallest palm tree. At Steppes Travel we chose smaller hotels located slightly away from the main town of Chaweng to ensure our clients experience the best of the area.

There is an excellent golf course and all the activities one would expect for a relaxed island – snorkelling, fishing, mountain biking, horse-riding, sea-canoeing, nature walks and visits to outlying islands. Koh Samui is easily accessed from Bangkok and other major Asian cities so can work well as a relaxing end to your holiday.

Paul is the Conde Nast Traveller chosen Specialist for Central Asia and the Silk Route.

Being from a family with Army connections I can from an early age remember travelling. From camping in Europe and then later being sent to boarding school when we lived in Germany at the age of eight, complete with shorts, long socks, a cap and my suitcase. In appearance not too dissimilar to the children evacuated to the countryside during the blitz.

You did a fantastic job from start to finish. Helping us identify where to go in December for the best weather, locate the perfect villa, source a chef and yoga instructor and organise transport from multiple destinations. Everything worked beautifully.

Paul's knowledge and expertise was invaluable when planning this trip. I told him where we wanted to go and the sort of hotels and things we wanted to do and everything was spot on - more than we ever expected! We will definitely be using Steppes Travel for future trips.
