Such a great trip with so many things packed in. The main highlights were: Staying in the national park, kayaking the day before down the river, and the nighttime jungle walk. We saw so many animals and cool insects. The food at the treehouse stay was amazing - Pradesh kept feeding us more! Pradesh was also a very funny guide. The only thing that let it down was when we left Pradesh for the stay in the national park. The food and service wasn’t great; we were a group of six but got the same amount of food and water as groups of two/four. Quantities were served per table so to get around this I

Had an amazing experience, especially on the lake. The cabins are so nice, you have your own little “terrace” where you can swim from, and the view is stunning!! Definitely the highlight of the tour! Food was good. Small group (we were 6 in total), very chill. Guide was sweet and funny, but didn’t tell that much and wasn’t the best at english. Would recommend! You could also go for just one night on the lake if you are short on time, as the rest is also nice, but not super necessary.

We had 3 amazing days with our guide Pradet who taught us all about thai culture and flora&fauna in Khao Sok! Both the forest and lake were absolutely stunning. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was delicious. Highly recommend this tour!

A localização de Pickup na página da reserva induz em erro. Dizem que Railay Beach está dentro da zona, mas não explicam que temos de apanhar um barco até ao pier. Pode parecer muito lógico para quem é da zona, mas para os turistas não é. Teria arranjado um hotel perto do pier e não em Railay Beach. Por isso que cancelei a outra excursão que tinha marcado no dia seguinte.

Het was een leuke ervaring! We hebben veel dieren kunnen zien en het was een fijne balans tussen actief en rustig aan doen. We hadden een lieve gids die ons goed begeleidde. Na afloop heeft hij voor ons vervoer en een ferry tocht naar koh samui geregeld.

Wir können diese Tour zu 100 % empfehlen! Unsere Gruppe war sehr klein, und an einem Tag waren wir sogar alleine mit dem Guide unterwegs – ein echtes Highlight. Unser Guide war einfach großartig: entspannt, unglaublich engagiert und mit einem beeindruckenden Gespür dafür, Tiere zu entdecken. Man merkt sofort, wie sehr er seinen Job liebt. Die Bootstouren über den See sind atemberaubend, die Natur ist einfach wunderschön. Die Unterkunft auf dem Wasser ist etwas ganz Besonderes und wir haben unseren Aufenthalt dort sehr genossen. Auch der Bungalow war super und idyllisch gelegen. Auch die Verpfl

Genoten van de mooie natuur en het heerlijke eten. De gids informeerde ons over vertrektijden en bracht ons van A naar B. Helaas verder weinig informatie over wat we zagen. Dat had de trip perfect gemaakt. Prijs kwaliteit verhouding zeer goed!

Fahrt auf dem Cheow Lan Lake war beeindruckend , Höhle war außergewöhnlich, Flossfahrt war okay, aber das Gesamtpaket war zu teuer.
