Koh Samui - Free&Easy Ride (Part 6 - End)

29-May-2016

7:45am, all of us gathered around the carpark, and ready to depart back to Malaysia. As usual, after some briefing, we start our journey. One thing great about Thailand is, their security guard and also the hotel management is very tourist friendly, and they treat their guests with the best. The security guard even help us stopping the traffic in order for us to go out from the hotel, suddenly make us feel like VIP.

Reached the jetty around 9:30am, and the next ferry available at 10:00am. With the same price, 230 Baht, we are ready to headed back to mainland. Some delay during our departure, as one of the bike battery depleted...





















































Finally, reached back Malaysia border around 7:00pm (Malaysia time)
























Nothing much write up on the trip back, as me myself was exhausted.

Koh Samui - Free&Easy Ride (Part 5)

28-May-2016

The next morning in Koh Samui, 5 of us decided to head to the beautiful beach in the morning, the water is clear, and spend almost 4 hrs at the beach (including 1hrs of massage at the beach, but will not recommend to any, as the massage is not really good).























There is one nice looking Japanese chic, holiday with her couple, and to make myself not so pervert looking guy, sorry, no photo....

Went back to hotel around 1:00pm, and after cleaning ourself, decided to join few others for island tour...
We went to Big buddha, huge Guan Yu statue, red bricks watt siam, and not to forget the famous grandpa and grandma rock at lamai beach...



















































































After the island tour, we reached back hotel around 7:00pm, and decided to head for dinner.
Done the dinner, back to hotel, decided jump into the swimming pool....
Supposedly, my last night at Koh Samui would end after the swimming pool, but due to facts that feeling pity to another guy that did not manage to roam around the island nightlife, decided to accompany him to roam around the Chaweng nightlife, went into the Go-go bar, which for me Phuket's Go-go bar are way better than this, and end up at the Reggae Pub at Soi Reggae.

Went back hotel around 2:00am, exhausted....

Koh Samui - Free&Easy Ride (Part 4)

27-May-2016

We finally managed to check in our room around 5:00pm, and decided to rent scooter to roam around the island, instead of using our own bike. Scooter rental available at the hotel, but with slight high price @250baht/day.
























After refreshing, decided to gather at the lobby around 6:00pm, to slightly explore the Chaweng, and food hunting for our tummy.... with the hot weather, after having our dinner, all of us are sweating heavily, and before we continue to hunt for the nightlife, all agreed to go back to hotel, clean up, and ready for the nightlife hunting.

We went back again to the Chaweng street, and previously i read that Soi Green Mango is equivalent to Soi Bangla of Phuket, but trust me, is not at all.... after hunting along the Chaweng beach, with most disappointed with the nightlife available there, we end up at Soi Reggae. The Reggae Pub at the end of Soi Reggae, I would rate it at 4.8/5 based on the live band performance. 

But, I warn you, in order to arrive at this great place, you have to passby the Soi Reggae, which from my point of view, scary view alongside the road....

Hang out at the Reggae Pub till the liveband performance finish, around 2am, decided to have some supper, and head back to hotel to call it for the night.

More write up after this...
