On the 12 of December 2017, we went on the Author's Sea Tour in the Andaman Sea from "Non-Standard Rest in Phuket". We are overcome with positive emotions. Before that, we took the Similan Islands from Pegas, and the difference was sooooo dramatic. Usually, when going on tour, you feel like a Chinese tourist (I think this is exactly what happens to them :)) who have clear limits for every stay and action, such as spending 30 minutes here and there, then having lunch for 20 minutes at the fixed time and so on, so you spend the whole day in pursuit for the fleeing minutes and hours.

During our tour, we faced the opposite situation - the feeling that we gathered with a good company and rented a nice and comfortable speedboat with a cool team. We sailed into a small bay, everyone took masks and fins to see the beauty with a lot of different fish. Everyone swam until they get bored, gathered on the boat and set off for the next place.

In the last days of our vacation there were a strong wind and big waves, but it was a pleasure to go on that boat cutting through the waves to our buzz (I advise you to go to the bow of the boat), and there were no waves or wind in the bay. We enjoyed a lot of delicious food, drinks and grilled fish on the boat in the evening after sunset. We made such beautiful photos in the last bay, just a dream for instagram fans)) That rare moment when after the tour you don’t remember how much money you paid for it!) Many thanks to Vladimir and Evgeny for such a memorable day!!!

Thank you guys for making our day unforgettable. We rode bikes in the south of the island, watched the most picturesque places, swam in the sea and filmed a video!!! It was very nice as the guys were sociable and happy to share their knowledge. It was our second time in Phuket and thanks to you that we saw a lot of new cool places!

Many thanks to the team for organizing the tours! Everything was at the highest level! Cool Russian guides, beautiful landscapes, cool places! I recommend it to everyone, the guys will help make your vacation unforgettable.
P.S We will definitely return to Phuket and contact you again.

We've just returned from 11 islands. I liked everything as it was perfectly organized. Some tourists were late, but it was their own issue. We got tired, but happy and satisfied. Cool bays and evening parties. Guide Egor did an excellent job. THANKS!

Yesterday we rode bikes with Alexey and Ivan, very positive and kind guys. From the first minute, it seemed that they had known each other for a long time. They rode us around the north of Phuket, so we visited interesting places and got a huge boost of energy ... A lot of impressions.

Recently I remembered that I did not leave a review about your work... Actually, I would like to thank all the organizers and guides of Non-Standard Rest in Phuket! All offered tours  were well-organized... interesting places and routes, competent and knowledgeable guides! I recommend this company.

We arrived in Phuket in late October, found the guys from the "Non-Standard Rest in Phuket", and we went on the "11 Islands" tour. To say that the guys who work on this program are professionals in their field is an understatement. All two days were very eventful and unforgettable.

We enjoyed the dawn on the Phi Phi observation deck at 5 am, swam in the sea, rode a canoe with a very cute Thai, visited the coolest beach in Krabi - Railay.

If you want to have a great time in Phuket and make your vacation memorable, just go to the "11 Islands" with "Non-Standard Rest in Phuket"! There are really amazing guys! And the tour is worth the money!

And I want to give advice to everyone who goes on this tour. Even if a poor Thai has lost you and has been looking for you for an hour and a half, just relax! The main thing is that they will find you and will not leave anyone!

And I wanted to thank the organizers for their work and their assistance in renting a car for us. I advise everyone to take a bike or a car. But honestly, I would not deal with that rental company anymore, since they change the price tag for rent on the go and then get confused in what they said. On the entire trip to Phuket, it was only them who left a negative feeling) especially since Russians fool their own people, but this is purely our opinion!) maybe we were out of lucky)

I myself work in tourism and I strongly recommend contacting these guys! They will help in any matter and organize everything!

Today we visited Khao Lak National Park. It was a great tout and a great experience. We also had a chance to see a turtle farm))) In this tour, we rode the elephants and fed them))) WATCHED THE ELEPHANT SHOW! Also, we rafted on bamboo rafts along the river in the jungle. We got unforgettable emotions. Thanks to "Non-standard rest in Phuket", this company and the guys for organizing the tour. It was cool.

What a blessing it is that we found you somewhere on VK. It was our first time in Thailand. We immediately decided to go on a motorcycle tour with you. We went on 1.03. In fact, there was a slight issue, but it was fixed immediately within 10-15 minutes. It's very cool that the guys offered to combine both the north and the south (it turned out not only an individual tour, but also an individual program). We rode for 11 hours, but it was worth it!!! Before that, we had not seen the island at all. But thanks to such a thought-out tour, we fell in love with Phuket! Everything was just great! Inexpressible emotions and impressions! We will definitely come back and expand our horizon with you! Everything was nice. We saw a lot of cool places, swam, had a delicious lunch, listened to music, enjoyed a fair wind and got high under the impression of our emotions. We saw the most unforgettable sunset with the guys (they chose the place for the sunset themselves, by the way, few people know about it) Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

We'd like to say a big thank you to Kolya and Katya for the excellent tour! We took a motorcycle tour in the north of Phuket and were very impressed!

We had an amazing time as we visited interesting places in Phuket! It was very fun and exciting!

Hi everyone. I'd like to write a review about our unforgettable trip.
We are 2 adults and 1 child (4 and a half years old) who decided to go to Khao Sok Park and Cheow Lan Lake. Many thanks to the organizers for your patience in communication with meticulous tourists! The journey was very easy for us and for our daughter. We were picked up from the hotel on time. Our group and guide were fully Russian. It was important for us!

Elephants surprised even my husband with their power.
The guide told us a lot about the Thais, the role of animals in their lives, spirits and the royal family. The most memorable was the lake with its houses, and the jungle life teeming around! There we realized that there was a completely different side of life on the planet.

Kayaking helped us merge with this world a little. The smell of animals, horn bills overhead, the screams of monkeys, wild boars at a watering hole at 6 in the morning. And many dangerous creatures that didn't pay any attention to us at all. The only thing missing was Nikolai Drozdov with his stories.
We managed to escape the city, work and worries for the time of our rest. There's so much more to say, but I could write a book! Thanks to your team for reasonable prices, positive attitude and delicious food at all stops!!!

I would like to express my deep gratitude to the whole team of "Non-Standard Holidays in Phuket" for an amazing 2-day tour to 11 islands and an elephant riding tour. Everything is well-organized, smooth and harmonious. We got the whole sea of impressions. Recommended!

Thank you so much for the excellent organization of the tour to 11 islands (2 days) and to the Similan Islands (1 day)! Everything is very cool and at the highest level! We are delighted and still have a storm of positive emotions!!! We will definitely come back to Phuket and contact you again.

I want to express my deep gratitude to this company for organizing our sooooo active holiday))) We purchased a wholesale tour package with as many as 5 excursions! We were given a discount for each of them, which made us very happy! We went on these tours: both a motorcycle tour in the south of Phuket and a motorcycle tour in the north of Phuket, a trip to the private island of Maiton, Tarzan's adventures and Khao Sok National Park - Cheow Lan Lake (a two-day tour).

We were particularly delighted by the driver-guides on bikes, who rode us around Phuket for 2 days and showed us the most interesting and beautiful places of the island)) On the private island of Maiton, we were amazed by the crystal clear water in the sea, which I have not seen anywhere else. It can be compared with diamonds in liquid form - it is so transparent and sparkles all over in the light)) there was a sooooo delicious lunch with seafood, we ate so much that we didn’t even go to dinner))

And now some words about the adventures of Tarzan! If your bones or joints hurt, you definitely need to go to the "rehabilitation center" for the adventures of Tarzan)))))) There, climbing through the jungle on rope ladders, ropes, after passing many stations, you will forget about all your sores, as they usually "live" in people's heads)) In general, we got such a good dose of adrenaline!

On the adventures of Tarzan, we left all our things in the storage room, including our smartphones! We were photographed by the instructor with his mobile phone! After passing all the obstacles, we were presented with 3 printed photos. I agreed with the Thais that they would send them to my email, BUT, they never did... And then I turned to the organizer for help, send them my email, and he was already reaching out to the Thais about my photos. So, they sent me 22 photos by the evening))

And finally, some words about a two-day tour to Cheow Lan! We took a vip accommodation with amenities inside (highly recommended!). It's not very convenient when there is only a bed in the room... anyway, every man to his own taste... we took a mosquito spray, but never needed it because there were no mosquitoes)) the guys took us to the temples, but I don’t remember the names)) we rode elephants, then a little elephant gave a massage to everyone, carried out rafting on bamboo rafts and were given bamboo mugs! We fed the fish, cleaned our karma, visited hot springs to rejuvenate a little)))) In general, you can’t tell everything in words - you need to go yourself and see everything with your own eyes!

Good afternoon) I want to share our impressions about a cool tour with this agency!)) We ordered a bike tour just a couple of days before the planned date))) At 9 a.m., Russian guys came for us on three bikes, and one of them was a girl we subsequently became friends with and hung out together)))

I was so afraid to ride a bike and my friends hardly persuaded me to go on this tour)) But my driver, Timur, rode very carefully, so I was not scared at all! Guys, I highly recommend that you rent a bike or go on a motorbike tour in Phuket - to the north or the south of the island, you will remember my words later!

This is incomparable to anything! Every half an hour, sometimes even more often, we had stops in such picturesque places with the coolest beaches. Our favorite is BANANA beach, where we swam a lot, filmed our video blog, enjoyed a viewpoint overlooking some private beach, and a temple, “the coolest waterfall in the world” (a joke, of course, the waterfall was funny, but we swam in icy water, saw a light green snake right in front of us, charged with positive emotions), a beach with airplanes - MAI KHAO and other cool places)))

We understood that despite the fact that we went to different beaches every day, we just didn't have time to see the northern part of the island on our own, so we chose this direction!) To compare the prices: the cost of such a daily tour is 1500 baht per person, and a tuk-tuk ride to the beach with planes from Patong is 800 baht one way, so we figured that it would be very profitable to see many interesting places when riding bikes.

The MAI KHAO beach with planes was our cherished dream)) In 20 minutes we saw 7 planes landing, I just didn’t know that they were there so often, I even thought, what if we don’t have time to see a single one. I didn’t want that day to end, honestly, I would ride a bike for another day. Thanks to the guys who drove us, you are cool - Timur, Timur and Olya, we recommend this tour to everyone! We also stopped by a very cool café where we enjoyed the most awesome coconut soup in the whole vacation and nice beer. Thank you for the tour!

Well, I've got around to writing my review.
I was in Thailand in May. As I traveled with my lady friends, we planned our holiday in advanced.
We came across a VK group (I don't have an Instagram account) and thought that we definitely wanted to go on a motorcycle tour.
We contacted the organizers and they quickly arranged everything. Oh, not quite everything as they forgot to organize the sunset, but it didn’t ruin the day...
There were four of us, and it turned out that we had four guides: Kolya, Andrey, Seryozha (by the way, he doesn't have Instagram either) and Alexey (he is also a photographer).
Each of us chose a bike and we set off to see the South of Phuket.
Each of the guys told us the history of Thailand, but it was in such a nice way that I wanted to know more and more... (well, girls fall in love with stories))
We were not exhausted or even tired)) Just got little sunburns. One of us loved sunbathing, but even here guys didn’t let her burn out completely as they covered her with some clothes...
In general, it was very fun, interesting, and most importantly not boring, as is often the case on many tours.
CONCLUSION: go on a tour with these guys and your vacation will be brighter and full of good memories.
The guys are very sociable and friendly.

We took a tour to the 11 Islands and Khao Lak. Everything was very pleasant and worth the money! Thank you so much, I'm very impressed!

Thank you very much for the tour to the Similan Islands! What we saw and what we felt simply cannot be described in words! Everything was smooth and well-organized! 10 out of 10. We will choose your company every time we are in Phuket!

Thank you very much for organizing tours during my vacation. I would like to highlight the high level of service, their kindness and quick response. I took three programs:

1. 11 islands with an overnight stay on Phi Phi Don. It was the tour my Thai acquaintance began with. I heard a lot of negative reviews from other tourists who went on the tour with some third-party organizers (sea sickness, etc.). But when we arrived at the pier and saw an almost new speed boat, we calmed down. It's also worth noting that we signed an insurance policy before we got on the boat. During the trip, we visited beautiful islands and managed to arrive before a large influx of tourists, which allowed us to immerse ourselves in that relaxing atmosphere. A beautiful Pele Bay and a magnificent view from the Phi Phi Don are available from the observation deck! Special thanks to our guide Evgeny. Highly recommended!

2. Moto tour in the south of Phuket. It is worth noting here that I am very afraid of riding motorcycles, but Pavel (our motor tour guide) helped me overcome this fear in such a way that I didn’t want to get off the bike. During the trip, we visited all the beaches of the south of Phuket, Rawai, visited the Chalong temple complex, the big Buddha, fed the baby elephant and monkeys. And finally we stopped at a secret café with delicious cuisine.

3. Rafting + elephants + quad bikes. A very busy program from morning to evening. We visited the Phang Nga nature reserve and rode the elephants. We had a very extreme quad biking and then went swimming in the river during rafting. We loved this so much. Nice variety for outdoor enthusiasts. If someone dares, I recommend taking a towel and some clothes to change after rafting. We also visited the temple of the reclining Buddha and the orchard, where we saw how tropical fruits grow and tasted local sweets.

4. Individual photo session. Finally, I decided to treat myself with professional photos, so that I could remember the wonderful vacation in Thailand years after it.

The BEST impressions of your team! I had the opportunity to compare with others, so I know for sure) I ordered a tour with elephants, a waterfall and a temple) Special thanks to our guide Maria) The whole tour was held in a friendly atmosphere, and I learned a lot about Thailand, its culture and history) I'll choose your company whenever I'm in Thailand!
