Lonely Planet, Thailand Islands & Beaches, Issue 6 2008 Edition

"Backpackers Information Centre (www.backpackersthailand.com). A must for travellers looking for info and tours, this standout operation is run by a gregarious Harley-riding expat.  The UK-born owner  has hung up his backpack in Koh Phangan and now helps others discover the island (and the rest of Thailand).  He can hook you up with an assortment of quality activities such as scuba diving and live-aboard boat trips, and works hard to ensure that his customers are satisfied". 

Other Activities Section: There are loads of opportunities to try your hand at watersports, including jet-skiing, kiteboarding, waterskiing, sea kayaking, windsurfing and sailing. Back on land  alternative modes of transport include 4WD's or quad bikes.  The friendly staff at the Backpackers Information Centre can help you arrange any of these.

Diving Section: Lotus DivingThis terrific dive centre has world class instructors and owns two beautiful boats (that's two more vessels than most of the other operations on Koh Phangan). Two and three dive adventures run run between 2300B-3500B. The Open Water Course  will set you back 11,000B, but includes hugh lunches between dives and a free DVD  of your experience (or a 20 minute wakeboarding session should you not want a DVD). Trips can be booked at Backpackers Information Centre.

Lowri Manchester says:

Hi!
This message is way overdue - 9 months overdue in fact! I just wanted to thank Bambi for sorting out my PADI diving course with Lotus. Three of the best days of my life, and it's meant i've been able to dive all over the world. Everything was sorted out really quickly and efficiently, and I'd reccommend everyone to go in to the shop if you want any advice or info on ANYTHING.

Cheers again Bambi - you're a star!
