Tour Itinerary
Day 1 Itinerary:
Get picked up from your Phuket hotel and start your day trip with beautiful scenery on your journey to Khao Lak. Make a stop at the International Tsunami museum with its educational approach to helping people understand what happen on that fateful day of 26th December 2004. Created by a professor and students at the Western Washington University it opened to visitors on 21st December 2006 and has seen many people pass through its doors since.
You then move on to Khao Sok where you stop at the elephant camp for an exciting elephant trek into tropical rainforest, and visit the majestic waterfall where you can swim or just enjoy the view. You will also stop at a scenic viewpoint overlooking part of the Khao Sok National Park before visiting the H.Q. centre of Khao Sok National Parks. Then it's off to enjoy a traditional outdoor Thai cuisine lunch at the Khao Sok Tree Top River Huts Restaurant where you enjoy a welcome drink on arrival.
After lunch head off to Gui-Lin of Thailand (Chiao Lan Lake) where you get to explore the lakeshore and the marvelous scenery offered by this secluded lake. Many people compare the striking scenery here with the world-famous Gui-Lin in China and Ha-Long Bay in Vietnam. After this it's off to the Raft House where you check into your accommodation, and you have free time to either relax or take a swim in the refreshing lake, before your special Thai set dinner is served. After dinner join in the wildlife night safari by longtail boat before you retire for the evening.
Day 2 Itinerary:
Your day starts off with a dawn safari along the mist-shrouded shore of Chiao Lan Lake to build up your appetite for breakfast.
After breakfast, set off on a jungle trek into the dense tropical rain-forest and a cave expedition to explore the Nam Ta Lu Cave. A forest stream flows into this cave and has made this beautiful cave scenery with formations of limestone including stalactites, stalagmites and brimstone pools. Or if you prefer, you can self paddle a canoe in the lake rather than joining the cave exploration. After this, enjoy some free time for either relaxing or swimming in the lake before lunch is served, after which it is time to check out, and head back to your Phuket hotel.
* Please note that the Cave Expedition is subject to change without prior warning during rainy season.
