Reviews
We had a fantastic day at the picturesque Cheow Lan Lake. Our guide, Khun Gae, was an excellent host who ensured everything went seamlessly. The lake is breathtaking, and we loved the Emerald Pool—especially the 20-minute kayak ride we took. It was a great experience for the price.
The scenery was breathtaking, the lunch was fantastic, and the boat trip was enjoyable. Our guide, Arisa, was very knowledgeable and took excellent care of us during the entire day.
The day spent at Khao Sok Lake was truly fantastic. Our guide, Gay, was excellent, and the small group made the experience even better. The longtail boat trip was wonderful, and the national park is stunning. I wish I could have stayed overnight.
Our experience on Program 15 – Lake Hopper was truly a highlight of our trip. Everything was organized flawlessly, making it entirely stress-free. The vistas at Khao Sok and Cheow Lan Lake are stunning, but the people made it exceptional. Our guide, Oil, was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured a relaxed and enjoyable day. She consistently exceeded expectations to make sure everyone felt cared for. A special thanks to Mr. Green, our driver and assistant, who was professional and always proactive, contributing to the seamless flow of the trip. The floating cabin experience was unforgettable, with views over the lake that will stay with us for a long time. The accommodations exceeded our expectations; they were comfortable, clean, and perfectly equipped for enjoying this unique setting. If you're thinking about a tour in Khao Sok, this is definitely the one to choose. It was a flawless experience with breathtaking views and an outstanding team. I highly recommend it.
The itinerary was fantastic and the views were stunning. Both our guide and driver did a wonderful job. The lunch location was ideal, offering a lovely ambiance and tasty food. We wished the guide had provided more insights into Thailand's history, culture, and plantations throughout the trip. All in all, it was an excellent tour.
If you're searching for a tour company in the Khao Lak and Khao Sok regions, look no further. We participated in two trips with them, and both were outstanding in terms of quality and professionalism. From the initial planning stage, where I had numerous questions on WhatsApp, to the actual tours, the team was incredibly patient and helpful. The experiences themselves were breathtaking and gave us a true sense of the area. It's clear they take pride in their business and customer service, showcasing how a tour company should function with excellent communication and high standards. We explored Khao Sok National Park and James Bond Island, and both were absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend this company for well-organized, professional tours at a great price.
This was a genuinely enjoyable and engaging experience. We had a fantastic time with the highly skilled guides. I highly recommend taking this tour.
This day trip was absolutely fabulous. We were picked up from our hotel in a clean, comfortable, air-conditioned minibus. The two-hour drive to Khao Sok included a stop at a coffee factory where Arisa shared interesting insights along the way. The emerald pool was stunning and refreshingly cool, and we were fortunate to spot one of the three otters swimming. The highlight was definitely the dam at Khao Sok, featuring breathtaking views that truly leave you in awe. The cave we explored was hot and humid but fascinating to see, complete with bats and even a huntsman spider. Wearing trainers is advisable for this part of the trip, and it's best to bring flip-flops or sandals for swimming since the rocks can be quite hot and sharp. Lunch was delightful, and drinks were provided throughout the day. The swimming and kayaking area was beautiful, with ample time to enjoy it. A special mention goes to our guide, Arisa. She was bubbly, enthusiastic, and took the time to connect with each of us, learning our names and sharing her extensive knowledge of the national park's history. This drive truly offers a rewarding experience, and I highly recommend booking it.
The entire experience was extraordinary. Peter picked us up promptly, and we were fortunate to have stunning weather along with another couple. After a 1.5-hour drive to Khao Sok, we stopped at the beautiful emerald pools. We continued to Khao Sok, where we took a photo at the lookout before embarking on a boat ride through the park. During our drive, we spotted two elephants (not from the boat), along with a monkey, a snake, and an otter. Gay was amazing; her knowledge and welcoming nature truly made the day memorable. Thank you, Peter and Gay. We've already recommended you to family members who are visiting next month.
I highly recommend this trip. It was an intimate experience with just four other people. Our guide Gay was fantastic; she made everyone feel welcome, was incredibly helpful, and very funny. Having her as our guide was a true pleasure. The lunch was delicious, and the scenery was stunning. This is a trip you shouldn't miss.
