Absolutely amazing day! Jib was an outstanding and very knowledgeable guide. Her English was very good, as well. It was a full day if activities and learning. The van was very comfy and air conditioned. The food for lunch was very good. The elephant experience is unforgettable. This day trip was the highlight of our vacation to Thailand. Thank you so much for the memories!

Our guide Tanya was lovely lady, very funny and informative, very good driver and trainee all very friendly. Lovely air-conditioned van fully stacked with cold water and cola for the journey, plus delicious fruit. They all took good care of us. Delicious lunch before bamboo rafting. Experience with elephants was amazing, as was turtle conservation centre. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole day, would highly recommend

Full description

Discover Khao Lak Safari on a full-day trip that starts with a pickup from your hotel in Khao Lak. Visit a waterfall, temple, turtle conservation center, and Tsunami Memorial Police Boat 813. Ride on a traditional raft and see a variety of protected animal species.

Jump onboard a traditional bamboo raft passing by single jungle huts, ancient trees, and other exotic plants. Be attentive to your paddler, who will show you wild animals that sleep along the tree branches above you such as snakes, monkeys, spiders, and monitor lizards.


Learn about the Queen Turtle conservation center project, located in a military area, where the turtles are protected and taken care of before being released into the wild. Relax close to a refreshing waterfall and have a delicious Thai lunch to replenish your energy.


After lunch, you'll visit a traditional temple for a small introduction to Buddhism. Finally, head to the elephant camp to bathe, feed, and bond with an elephant.

From start to finish this trip was truly amazing. Jenny our guide was very welcoming and informative about each activity. Learning about the Tsunami, the locals and turtles & elephant sanctuaries. Our driver was very thoughtful giving us iced wipes to cool us down. I can honestly say this was the best excursion I have ever experienced. I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend this trip and the company running them. Thank you!
