Sam Roi Yot - Visit Thailand’s first coastal National Park Sam Roi Yod with its 300 Peaks. Many Birds and Wild animal have there home at the Sam Roi Yod National Park. Visit the Fishing Village Ban Phu and take a boat from there to the white Sand Laem Sala Beach
Please note: Sometimes there are high waves and the boat may not be able to go to Laem Sala Beach.
You would then have to cross the mountain on foot which takes about 30 minutes to get to Laem Sala beach and back the same way. It is exhausting but from the mountain you have also a beautiful view. In this case, we will make an additional river boat trip on the Pranburi River after lunch.
Our Tour Guide will ask you on pick up if you have problem with walking over the mountain for health or age reasons, and you can cancel the tour. - Laem Sala Beach - From Laem Sala Beach there is a climb up the mountain about 430 meters (1,410 ft) to reach Phraya Nakhon Cave, a large cave which has a hole in the ceiling allowing sunlight to penetrate. Khuha Kharuehat Pavilion (พร่à¸à¸™à¹ˆà¸à¸‡à¸„ู่หาคริ่à¸à¸ªà¸™à¹Œ) is a historic site built for King Chulalongkorn’s visit in 1890. At certain times the sun will shine directly on it and it will look so amazing beautiful. The pavilion has since become the symbol of Prachuap Khiri Khan Province.
- Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park - Having Lunch in a local Thai Restaurant and take the Boat back to the Fishing Village. On the way back to Hua Hin the Tour guide will stop at a Pineapple Plantation, and explain about this fruit who grown up in this area and will export worldwide.

Fantastic Tour with Great Weather - Excellent tour! I even managed to view and capture the sun glimmering off the cave pavillion. Of course the cave was an incredible experience and well worth the trip. But as some have pointed out, the trek up the mountain is challenging, so be forewarned.
Brunch was buffet-style and very good, served at the National Park restaurant at the base of the mountain with the beach in close proximity. You might be able to go swimming if you skip out on brunch/lunch. Nonetheless, an incredible experience and I met a host of fellow hikers and nature lovers during my tour. Would easily do it again.

Good day out - 1. Transport - picked up on time; comfortable air-conditioned van; driving time around 90 minutes (including pick-ups of 9 people); good driver; vehicle had lap-belts
2. Meals - water provided in van; lunch at restaurant included in price - very tasty (drinks extra)
3. Cave walk - sea was too rough to allow boat transfer from car park so had to walk to the start of the cave path (took about 10-15 minutes over a small hill; good steps and footing); walk to cave over another small hill took a about 10-15 minutes and again, good steps and footing (N.B. I am above-average fitness and walk fast); I also had hiking poles which were very useful for stability)
4. Cave - I come from New Zealand where we have an abundance of limestone caves so overall was a bit underwhelming (but still glad I went)
5. Fishing village - had a brief ride up and down the river in one of the classic Thai motorized boats (only to the river mouth and back) which was good
6. Pineapple plantation - on the way back stopped on the roadside at a pineapple plantation where the tour guide gave a brief talk about the plantation (about 15 minutes)
7. Tour guide - very knowledgable, personable and spoke good English

Fairytale cave - What a fairytale experience! The climb is very tough, but the reward when you see the throne in the sun in the cave makes up for everything! The guide of Ken Diamond Travel made sure that the most beautiful moment were in the cave. An experience I would not have missed!

Wonderful view to see... - Wonderful view to see inside the cave with the good timing of the sunlight. The guide Pom was very friendly, helpful and informative and made the trip enjoyable. It was a tiring climb uphill but nice to have the boat ride, good lunch and relaxing time on the beach.

A very hard walk, sandshoes needed. Well worth it. A good level of fitness is needed due to the heat. - Be prepared for a very difficult walk up and down uneven rocky paths. Well worth it though. Take water and wear sandshoes.
The cave is huge.
The lunch was great.

Let me explain - The tour was just as promised and out guide shared a lot of history with us as we visited the cave and the monument constructed in it. The cave itself has interesting rock formations. While not a particularly long hike up the mountain and the trail being covered by the natural canopy, this hike should be considered strenuous due to the heat and humidity. All tour guides were checking on everyone on the trail, even from different tours. We learned that there had been several medical emergencies recently. It would be wise to bring some additional water. If you don't need it, someone else will appreciate your sharing. The monkeys along the path were adorable and not aggressive. The views were breathtaking. We were able to arrive by boat and didn't have to walk over another mountain to reach the trail to the cave. There is a restaurant at the trail head and it was typical prices for food and drinks. Inside the park the restrooms are free.

Great sights, great people. - The cave tour is a fantastic way to spend the day. With that being said, there is quite a bit of hiking in order to achieve your goal. If you are not from a humid climate, factor that in as well. There are outlooks along the path where you can stop and rest and get pictures. If there has been rain in the area recently, some of the areas can be quite slippery. There are typically handrails in these areas. I saw people wearing flip flop sandals all the way up to lite hiking boots, so you will have to decide on foot wear. Once in the cave and temple area, take a moment and relax and enjoy the sight. Remember, this was built in 1890. The way out is the same way in, just in reverse.
Take water, take time and enjoy.
