A superb trip, well worth doing - This is a fantastic trip to go on with ample time at each stop. The walk into the Emerald Pool was lovely, although I wasn't keen on a small pack of stray dogs following us in and brushing passed our legs, but they disappeared half way to another path! It was great to swim in the Emerald Pool and a short walk away was the Blue Pool where you only took photos but it was very peaceful. Then onto the Hot Springs which was truly fascinating, lovely warm water in natural habitat, very relaxing. Then the epic climb after we travelled on to the Tiger Cave Temple. Solid concrete steps, all 1260 of them up to the Temple. Some were steeper than others, making it a tiring climb at times but it was well worth the effort. Truly beautiful at the top with excellent views. No sign of monkeys on the way up but lots at the bottom in the busy area. The Tiger Cave is also worth a look before we continued our journey back to the hotel. All picks up and timings were perfect, as were our Guide and Driver. The only negative was having to pay out on the day for each National Park fee and lunch, it would've been better to have added it to the initial cost of the trip but it was probably easier for the company as they very much still work in cash in Thailand.

Excellent Service - Excellent service, comfortable van for the whole itinerary. Really experienced guide, 100% recommended! Thank you!

Amazing hot springs waterfall and emerald swimming pool. Would do again! - This tour was great! Tip: they don’t tell you what to wear/pack. Shoes: the trails are flip-flop friendly, but if you choose to the 1,280 steps at the tiger cave, they are quite steep and some flimsy shoes might not be preferable. Clothes: if you choose to climb to the mountaintop temple or want to enter the tiger cave temple, women will need to have covered shoulder and knees, like any temple, though I’m not sure how enforced it is. You will want swimwear and a towel for the pools. First of all, the tour started early and our guide made sure we beat the crowds. As we were packing up to leave, throngs of people were swarming in. I was lucky that all the amazing trips I booked here were that way. Definitely recommend picking bookings that start early. Our tour was on Jan 2nd so prime tourist season. First, we went to the Emerald pool. This very well maintained park is a pretty jungle. You see 3 different pools and can swim in the middle one. Very beautiful and warmish as it’s fed by a hot spring. It is not hot, though as the pool you swim in is downstream from the picturesque aptly named blue pool that is at the beginning of the hot stream. There are small fish and it’s about 4.5 ft deep with a clean sand bottom. We then had a buffet lunch that was 150 bhat. It was tasty. Then, the highlight was the hot spring waterfalls! Pleasantly hot, clean and clear spring water flows beautiful, smooth, jade colored rocks that make for comfortable lounging and fun climbing. If you get too warm, you can slide down the rocks into the river that is quite cool, as it is fed by the previously visited spring that is 7 km away. After that, we took another ride to the mountaintop temple and tiger cave temple. My husband and sons and the other travelers climbed the 1,280 very steep tall narrow steps to the top. My knees do not like to go down steps so I skipped and just hung out in the shade at the bottom drinking a mango smoothie. TIP: the monkeys are abundant and can be quite aggressive grabbing at things they think are food including food, cups, and water bottles, so stay away from the monkeys when you have these things on display. They did not bother me at all sitting on the benches and picnic table, oddly enough, but were crazy when we walked to the tiger cave temple. They were jumping all around trying to, and succeeding, taking cups and ice cream and food and even a toddler’s bottle. We have done many great excursions so far on our Thailand trip, and this one was definía favorite. I wish this would let me include photos.

Great Experience - Abdi our tour guy was great gave us plenty of time on both The Emerald Pool as well as the Hor Springs and Tiguer Cave. As a solo traveler I appreciate the fact that he took my pictures. He was also funny and made sure everyone was dropped off to our hotel in a safely manner.

Very enjoyable day long trip - Was an amazing trip to see the pool and hot springs. Although the tiger cave temple was a challenge - so come prepared to climb over 1200 steps!

Good trip - Absolutely stunning National Park walk, good cheap lunch and fascinating temple complex. Guide was lovely but didn’t tell us much about where we were - seemed a bit disinterested.

A full day trip from Aonang - After quite a long drive, the day starts with a visit to the emerald pool (and other pools). After a lunch break there is a visit to the hot springs. The day ends with a trip to the temple where you can walk up c1260 steps to the top. All parts of the day are interesting (but would be better if visited in a different order).

Nice venues, especially... - Nice venues, especially hot springs, but quite crowded with tourists. Tiger cave temple was stunning but wish it was better maintained and cleaner. Overall tour was fine.

Nice day out from Krabi - Nice day out from Krabi! The guide was on time and took us to the main attractions as per itinerary. He also took nice pictures for us while bathing at the springs.

So-so - At the hot waterfall I would give 5 ... nice warm and very relaxing But at the Esmeraldo pool it was a bad adventure... you pay to walk a lot and in the end for nothing...
