点评:We did the hong by starlight tour. It was a great experience all around. The picked us up in a nice air conditioned van. The van had a 10 minute pickup window which it met. We were in Patong and it was an hour drive to the waiting center. They have a few shops around the waiting center. The check in process is quick and efficient. It takes about an hour and 10 minutes to get to first kayaking site. You ride in a larger boat and they serve you lunch on the ride out there. I didn’t realize that you would not be paddling. The guides paddle the boats for you. No one is given any oars until later in the day. The first site you go to they take you through a cave and into an open area where you spend about 20 minutes. Then it is back through the cave and a paddle around the island. The views are amazing. You get back on the big boat and they take you to the next site. You go through another cave and the it opens up to another long paddle in an open area. Again, the nice part is because you don’t have to paddle you can sit back and relax. You get to a hour and 15 minute stopping point. You can sit in the big boat, go swimming or kayak around the big boat on your own. They have dry bags for all your stuff free of charge. You then eat a good dinner on the boat. They had chicken, fish and vegetarian options. There is plenty of free bottled water on the boat. There is also a toilet on the boat. You move from the dinner site back to the cave for the Katong candle ceremony. Each kayak has a guide assigned to you. They help build your Katong. Some of these were very pretty. You paddle into the cave and light your Katong and the everyone turns off there lights to see the bioluminescence. This was not what I was expecting. It was not as bright as others, but it could still be seen. The staff were very attentive. They helped with getting people in and out of the water and well as setting up all the food and snacks. We had a great time and would do it again. The views were amazing.
