Absolutely best tour of the 3 we did in Khao Lak. Monkey temple was beautiful and the monkeys were an unexpected bonus. Bamboo rafting was absolutely idyllic and just stunning views all around. Elephants were amazing an experience not to miss. This tour visits Khao Sok Sanctuary which felt open and had free roaming Elephants. Tour guide was incredibly informative and took amazing pictures for everyone ensuring that we all had memories to last forever. Fab tour, so pleased we booked this!

Shane, our tour guide, took a lot of time and looked after us well. We got a lot of great impressions of Khao Sok National Park. Shane also explained a lot about the flora and fauna in the national park and showed us many hidden animals.
