Highlights

The trip starts with an early pickup from your hotel in Krabi. From there you will be driven by car to Khao Sok National Park through Phang Nga province. The drive is full of interesting sights such as rubber plantations, small villages and limestone hills. Make a short stopover of 1 hour at Tha Pom Klong Song Nam where you can walk on a natural trail…

Continue to the famous Wat Bang Riang, a beautiful hilltop temple which is located on Khao Lan Mountain in Thap Put in Phang Nga province. It features a seated golden Buddha image, a large statue of Kwam Im, the Chinese Goddess of Mercy and fine Thai temple architecture.

Arrive in Khao Sok National Park and enjoy a traditional Thai lunch at the jungle hut near the Sok River where you will also stay for overnight. Check-in at the jungle bungalow and, after a short break, drive to the scenic Khao Sok Viewpoint to take beautiful photos of the amazing panorama.

The highlight of this trip is a hike into the lush green rainforest of Khao Sok National Park. Trek 3 hours along rainforest trails deep into the valley’s stunning scenery lead by an experienced guide who will explain you about the flora and fauna of the oldest evergreen rainforest in Thailand.

Head back to the jungle hut for a well-deserved dinner with healthy Thai food. Settle in the cozy bungalow with the noises of the jungle.

The next morning, enjoy a rich and vitalizing breakfast. Then it’s time to put your swimsuit on and paddle down the Rok River by canoe. The river safari trip takes approximately 90 minutes and you will see gibbons swinging in the trees, snakes basking in the sun and other wildlife as you make your way down the stream. Take a refreshing swim in the river and try Tarzan swinging across the stream.

Complete your eco adventure with a lunch before heading back to Krabi with drop-off at your hotel.

Great time! - We loved this trip and the experience. We got to see monkeys, a king cobra, and a number of plants we have never seen. It was a really special night too and the dinner was fantastic.

Jungle Trip and Experience! - Pradet and his team were amazing from start to finish. He picked us up and drove us to a few different places on the way to Khao Sok National Park! We got to stop by a river and feed hundreds of fish which was incredible! Pradet was so friendly and make us feel so welcome. As we were the only people that had booked for that day we had a personalised trip! The food at the accommodation was the absolute best Thai food ever. We also got treated to a complimentary Thai cooking lesson and made a Thai green curry which tasted great. In the jungle Pradet knew some off the beaten path routes which made it much more exciting. Also the canooeing down the river was so much fun! Would absolutely recommend to anyone considering this trip. We loved it!

Fantastic trip - I did this with my children (13 & 14 years) and we all loved it. Pradet was an excellent guide. The river canoe was excellent and the scenery amazing. Then the walk through Khao Suk national park was really good. We saw lots of monkeys and swum in the river. Also, the food was delicious. The accommodation was basic but comfortable and had air con, which was a really pleasant surprise. I would thoroughly recommend this tour!

2 days in Khao Sok - We had a great 2 days with our guide Prades, we enjoyed the 2 stops on the way to the camp, then Prades was careful to select a jungle hike that was appropriate for us. The accommodation is comfortable and in a green and quiet location outside the park, close to the river. We had a bonus Thai cookery lesson in the evening which we were not expecting, then on day 2 the canoeing on the river which was stunning.

We definitely will come again! - Pradet was extremely friendly and committed to show and tell us as much as possible about the places we went to. The "park of two waters" was gorgeous for vegetation and bright colors. In a shining temple on a hill, whose interior was covered with frescoes and that enshrined a Buddha's precious relic, we met a snake!! (not poisoning, though, according to Pradet). The trekking in the Kao Sok was nice, even though we weren't very lucky with meeting animals. Finally the canoeing descent on the river, the last day, was so fascinating and relaxing. The bungalow we stayed in was really nice and comfortable, surrounded by dense vegetation. Last but not least: the FOOD!! top quality cooking and ... in large quantities! At every meal we stated we weren't very hungry, having eaten so much few hours earlier, but in the end we literally cleaned our plates, which made Pradet laughing so much :-D (We also took a cooking class and learned how to prepare a delicious Tom Ka Gai!)

Fun, Informational, and Incredible - Thank you Pradet! - My fiance and I went on this excursion in November and we STILL rave about the experience. It was definitely one of the best parts of our 18 day Asian trip thanks in no small part to Pradet (our tour guide). We loved every bit of the experience and he noticed so much in the jungle walk that we would not have otherwise noticed and on the drive back, he even spotted a king cobra! I highly recommend it!
