Lovely day trip from Khao Lak - Great family day out. We started at a local market and then headed to the elephant sanctuary which the kids and adults all enjoyed very much! The elephants were really well treated and all very ethical. We then headed out for some bamboo rafting which was very relaxing. After a Thai lunch we headed to the monkey temple and then a viewpoint for some beautiful views over the national park.

Very good tour - Great day out! Our Trainee tour guide Nam was fantastic and the driver ( I think his name was go) was excellent. They were both interactive and gave good information about our tour. Really enjoyed the bamboo rafting and the guy assisting us was very helpful. It was a little difficult for me to get on and off the raft and I appreciated his help. I highly recommend this trip

Such an amazing trip, so... - Such an amazing trip, so much to see in the beautiful Khao Sok National Park floating down the river followed by a delicious lunch. Amazing time spent with such majestic elephants where we fed them and then bathed them. If I could change anything it would be to miss out the market where we stopped for 20 minutes and spend more time on the river, but wow, such a fantastic day

Stunning - You gotta do this. It’s simply stunning. Stopped halfway and had coffee in bamboo mugs which you get to keep. An amazing memory.

Top tour - We had an amazing Bamboo Rafting Tour! 🌿🚣‍♂️ Our guide and driver were super friendly and made the whole trip really enjoyable. The Thai market was an absolute highlight with so many authentic impressions, and the Monkey Temple is definitely a must-see. The elephants were simply breathtaking and such an unforgettable experience. Even the bamboo canoe ride was great fun and gave us beautiful views.

An Amazing Unique Experience - We were met very promptly at our hotel by our Excellent Guide Adam and friendly Bus Driver Mr Sutisak Sinbaen. There was one young French woman and a Dutch Couple accompanying us , so a nice intimate group . First stop was Takuapa Local Market . It was very interesting and nice to browse . Beware if you have a weak stomach 😂. Next Stop was Elephant Rescue Camp . This was an Amazing Experience and one we will always remember . The animals are truly loved by the people who care for them and it was great to interact with them by feeding and bathing them . En route to do the Bamboo Rafting , we stopped at a View Point and took some amazing snaps . The Bamboo Rafting was amazing . The scenery , the bamboo coffee , the silence . My wife and I were both nervous due to some medical issues . But we need not have worried , we were helped every step of the way . Lunch was next and a beautiful spread of tasty local food was laid on for us . Delicious . Our final stop was the Monkey Temple . WOW is the only word I can find to describe that . A truly Wonderful Day . It will be very hard to find an excursion that is better than this . A Truly Amazing Experience.

Best day out so far 👍 - Brilliant, varied day out, thoroughly recommend. Title of trip doesn’t really do it justice, rafting is only a small part of the day. Our guide ‘ Nok’ was brilliant, she took us around a local market first and encouraged us to try some new foods. The the elephant sanctuary, washing the animals in the river was amazing, better than the one in Phuket. Then rafting with a coffee break, lunch and Monkey temple.

A Day of Unforgettable Memories - My review is over a year late lol but this was an awesome experience with my son. The guide and bus driver were amazing with amole time in many places. We bathed elephants, visited the monkey temple (meh tbh), visited a local market, hiked and rafted the river too! Had an amazing coffee drinking experience in the jungle made in bamboo over an open fire. 10/10.
