Worst Excursion in Thailand

1.00Firstly I'll start with the positives: - The minibus was very comfortable and made the journey from Ao Nang quite easy - The lake is actually really pretty Unfortunately this is where the positives stop, now for the negatives: - You dont get a chance to enjoy the beauty of the lake as you only get one stop off for photos, the rest of the time was spent whizzing around on the boat. - Lunch was awful! I'm not a fussy eater at all but it was shockingly bad. - We hoped to do kayaking, however, taking a look at the kayaks we felt it safer to give it a miss. - The hike, by definition, wasn't a hike. It was about a 200m stroll stopping every 20 seconds to hear about a different types of bamboo. We brought hiking gear expecting an actual hike (definitely false advertising here!) - The journey back on the boat felt like the driver was in a hurry and we overtook every other boat on way, the expense of this is that we got soaking wet where as everyone on the slower moving boats looked relatively peaceful and were enjoying the views. We didn't even get a chance to look at any of the views as our heads were down trying to stay dry. - Our guide seemed to rush everything Overall an awful experience, complete waste of money and wasted day of our holiday. DO NOT BOOK THIS!
Great tour!

5.00We had some rain but nothing that kept us from going on with the tour. Hosts were fantastic. They took such great care of everyone. Safety was a big concern from getting on/off the boat to wearing life vests if needed in the water. Definitely would do again
Excellent activity if the temperature is good

4.00Superb park, fantastic and comical guide. However, be sure to visit the park on a beautiful hot day. When it is cold and raining the experience is less pleasant.
Nature at its best, come rain or shine!

5.00The natural beauty of the limestone pillars is amazing…in rain or shine (we had both!). The tour was very informative and interesting. Our guides were very good, answered all our questions & looked after us well. We visited a cave and had a jungle walk to the side of the lake. Then lunch at a floating restaurant. A very good day.
A Terrific Day!

5.00Liked the ride there and back because it provided insight into areas we would not be in otherwise. Saw rural areas, many coconut farms, pineapple farms and small towns. The park itself was very scenic. The boat ride was fun and took us to beautiful places. Enjoyed the others in the group of 10 also. The kayaking and swimming were great activities in a beautiful area.
Really nice experience

5.00It was a nice experience - the guide, Tuktuk was friendly, informative & funny, kept us entertained. Lunch was provided and the food was ok. We had plenty of time to bathe when we reached the water bungalows and the short hike in the jungle was also nice, even though it started to rain (rain ponchos were provided). The cave was also great to experience. This natural park is a wonder. If you would like to see what Khao Sok is about and don’t want to adventure too much, this is a great tour. If we get to Khao Sok again, we will probably get a rental nearby and explore the park over several days 🙂. If you are sensitive to sound, bring some ear plugs for the long tail boat, because it’s a long ride.
Wonderful serene lake

5.00This was a wonderful tour and our guide was great and very knowledgeable. I wished we could have more photos opportunities with our family while on the boat ride to all the places as the views were so pretty. I would recommend this tour company just be ready for a long day tour.
The trip is rich, there is a boat ride, cave exploration, tour of the jungle, all are good experiences, although most of the time there is rain, without losing the whole journey feeling. But the disadvantage is that the price is too high, deducting car charges, shipping charges, national park charges, is really high; and lunch is a little simpler, the theoretical breakfast can be a little richer.
