    Four hours — visit the International Tsunami Museum, Lak Kaen Temple, Sea Turtle Conservation Center, and Khaolak Elephant Sanctuary, followed by a short stop at Sai Rung Waterfall and lunch.

    We were timely picked up by our guide, Win, and started our day at a local temple. Next, we enjoyed a refreshing swim at the Sai Rung waterfall, followed by the main attraction, the elephant sanctuary. We also stopped at the Tsunami museum and the turtle conservation center at the naval base, concluding with a delightful Thai lunch at the Waterside restaurant. This excursion offered a fantastic mix of experiences, and Win was both friendly and knowledgeable.SanjHomeAndAway

    Four hours by air-conditioned vehicle — bamboo rafting on the Sok River, jungle coffee stop, Khao Sok View Point, and a visit to Panturat Temple to see wild macaques.

    We thoroughly enjoyed the bamboo rafting experience; it was both calming and beautiful. Watching the monkeys jump into the pond to finish off the day was entertaining. Our guide Aommy was extremely friendly and accommodating.brettn223
