What a Day !! - What a day! Despite spending quite a few hours travelling, the destinations were fantastic (although the Pra Kie Phet Cave was a bit underwhelming). Scenery, food and staff were brilliant. Well woth the value...

Outstanding day with Gay. - Outstanding trip for the money considering the amount of drive time to get there. This is a really nice full day trip. The variety of the day is a great mix. Boat ride, swimming, bat cave tour, late lunch on the water are all amazing. The scenery is breathtaking. Gay was an amazing tour guide. Fun and energetic. You can tell she loves her job.

Fantastic day out - We had a fabulous day out. Our guide, Wan was amazing, she looked after us so well all day. Every where we went was stunning. Lunch on the lake was delicious. And the views were indescribable - just gorgeous. Would highly recommend this tour and this tour company. Not one complaint.

Raft ride in the bamboo forest - The most beautiful excursion in Khao lak also thanks to Mr. Dong! The combination of walk, raft ride and longtail boat in conjunction with Mr. Dong - simply unbeatable!!!

Good, well organised trip - This was a well organised trip with our driver arriving as expected from our hotel in khao lak. The drive was pleasant to pick up the guide and other travellers before arriving at the pool part. This felt a bit tight for time and after the short boat tour there was only 15 minutes left for swimming, but it was still a nice experience. The lake trip was good and it was great that our guide provided ponchos as it was a bit rainy and windy. The cave was quite nice - not as developed as most and the food at the floating restaurant plentiful. Due to the weather we didn't swim at the restaurant. Overall it was a good trip and the guide Ron was a great host.

Poor guide - Great day out , amazing views around the lake, only really spoiled by poor guide , who was unclear about what was happening next and what things to take with us. Only seemed to care about the time and schedule?

Only let down for the... - Only let down for the whole day was the lunch. 1 bowl of curry for 5 people to share. I don't eat seafood so wasn't much for me. And no soft drink supplied with lunch just a glass of water.

Great scenery - worth seeing trip from Khao Lak - Despite a relatively large car journey (in total certainly over 3h - there is also a lot to see) - a worthwhile excursion. The national park is an experience and the longtail boat ride is a lot of fun. Everything worked out fine from hotel pickup to the end. Be sure to take bathing suits (or wear them immediately). The only downside is the (included) lunch on offer, which was largely unpalatable. There are plenty of drinks during the tour. Taking a few snacks is recommended. For the cave, sturdy footwear makes sense, so at least no flip flops. Another plus is that you only drive in small groups.

Fascinating experience with very long bus ride - Fascinating impressions at Emerald Pool and Cheow Lan Lake. Overall great day trip. However, the total 5-hour bus ride was a bit strenuous and was not communicated in advance

The Haven Khao Lak - We stayed at The Haven and while there was nothing wrong with the hotel, for me the location was a little too isolated. The staff were lovely and food was good but to get to anything or anywhere it required transport of some kind. Nothing was in walking distance.
