What an experience! Took my partner here for her bday and we loved it. Our guide, Gun was extremely knowledgable about the local area and the wildlife. Really interesting to hear about the area and Thailand in general from a local. You’ll struggle to find a better sunrise in my opinion. The couple that run this are lovely, I hope they have all the success in their businesses, they deserve it. If you ever need a manager for your resort in the future, drop me an email 😆.

Full description

Rise and shine! Around 5 AM you will be picked up from your hotel in Koh Lanta. At Tung Yee Peng a local community guide welcomes you and brings you to your gondola boat. The village captain will set sail towards Lanta Bay at the Andaman Sea using just paddles and no engine to enforce the peacefulness of this tour. As the sun is rising, you will see the sky changing into a colorful painting and hear birds singing their morning chants. While you enjoy a small local breakfast (fish and sticky rice) with coffee or hot chocolate, we will drive back to the pier. On the way the captain will show you the mangrove forest from a closer look and show the macaques monkeys that are living in it. Even though the chance is likely that macaques will be spotted, wildlife sighting cannot be guaranteed. Around 9 AM you will be dropped at your hotel.

wow, who would have thought getting up early would be so good. collection was exactly at 5:15am like we were told. it wasn't a long time the port where we picked up the gondola. It was peaceful, not busy and having a boat for the 2 of us was lovely. Our guides were brilliant, informative and they would go out their way to find the different wildlife in and around the beach. I can highly rec this trip to anyone. thank you for a gorgeous morning sunrise
