Look no further! Khao Lak Land Discovery proudly operates overnight trips to to where the action is at Cheow Lan Lake! Our overnight Khao Sok wildlife spotting tour brings you near the wildlife sanctuaries that are out of reach of day-trippers. Come with us and explore the spectacular landscape around Cheow Lan Lake in search of the exotic flora and fauna that has made Khao Sok National Park the top destination for nature lovers and photographers in Thailand! Our driver and guide will pick you up in front of your hotel bright and early, then begin the scenic drive to the pier at the Rajjaprabha Dam. Once you arrive at the Rajjaprabha pier, hop aboard a traditional Thai Longtail boat to start the sightseeing cruise across picturesque Cheow Lan Lake. As you near the location of your accommodation, the chance to spot large animals near the shoreline increases, so keep your eyes open. After arriving at your accommodation, you will dine on a Thai-style lunch, then you will have some time to relax or jump in for a swim before embarking on a Longtail boat safari before sunset. As the sun sets in the sky, replenish yourself at dinner, mingle, and prepare to settle into your humble bamboo hut for the night. There is no electricity when the rangers shut down the generator at night at the park’s accommodation, leaving you in silence, or so it would seem. The jungle’s inhabitants may treat you to the sounds of the rainforest orchestra. Far away from light pollution, the views of the heavens above Cheow Lan Lake on a clear night are nothing short of astonishing, but make sure to get some sleep, for tomorrow, the adventure continues! Wake at the crack of dawn on day two and embark on a sunrise wildlife spotting safari by boat before breakfast. Cruising along the coastline aboard a Longtail boat is the ideal way to maximize the chance of spotting large animal species that visit the shoreline to drink and bathe. The early morning magic light is treasured by photographers, making this the ideal time of day to capture perfect images of animal subjects and scenic panoramas. After breakfast, your guide will lead you on a jungle trek, allowing you to get closer to the wildlife than was ever thought imaginable. Keep your eyes peeled for gibbons, Macaques, and the elusive Dusky Leaf monkey. Exotic wildlife is not all there is to see! The jungle trek is the opportune time to discover and behold some of the most beautiful and peculiar plants in the world. Khao Sok is home to many rare and strange plant species, including carnivorous pitcher plants, endemic orchid species, and the largest flower in the world, the Rafflesia arnoldii. After the trek, your captain will begin the scenic journey across the lake to the pier, but wait! The tour is not over yet! We still have a few more stops on your tour itinerary to make. The captain will stop at a location for a little spelunking in an ever-changing karst cave to discover what lies within. For lunch, your guide will choose to bring you to the shoreline for a picnic lunch or to dine at a floating raft-house restaurant. After lunch, sit back, relax, or take a refreshing swim in the lake with resplendent scenery as a backdrop before hopping back on the boat for the final leg of the journey back to the pier.
