Stop At: Pra Buddha Teepangkorn, Na Mueang, Ko Samui District, Surat Thani 84310, Thailand
We then start our off-road part of the tour, taking you to some of Samui's most scenic mountain peaks, surrounded by tropical Asian jungle to see parts of rural Samui.
Around noon we will stop for lunch, for you to enjoy some delicious Thai food at a mountain-top restaurant with views overlooking Samui's surrounding islands.
After lunch, we will stop at Wat Teepangkorn, Samui's Big Buddha on the mountain, not to be confused with the one next to the sea.
Here you'll be able to see a different kind of Buddhist temple, the centrepiece of which is its standing Buddha statue.
You will be surprised by the natural beauty and serenity of this remote temple, which also serves as a meditation center for Samui`s Buddhist monks.
You will stop at several viewpoints for photo opportunities offering panoramic 360° views of Ko Samui and its neighboring islands, as well as the mainland and the highest peak on Samui, Yaod Khao.

If time allows, we will stop at Lipa Noi beach for an hour or so, for a final look at Samui´s amazing beaches. On the way back to the pier, you may stop for shopping at the local market at Nathon town, where you will see intriguing produce, an array of strong smells, remarkable sights and exotic flavors in a surprisingly small roofed area.
