Hatten zwei wunderschöne Ausflüge : Surin Islands + Schnorcheltour und die Safari Tour + Kanufahrt. Unsere Guides waren zuvorkommend, haben uns viel erklärt und waren super witzig. Wir waren rundum sehr zufrieden und hatten viel Spaß ... sehr gerne wieder!

Wir haben diesen Ausflug genossen auch wenn es recht anstrengend war. Pünktlich wurden wir von Michael abgeholt. Nachdem der Bus voll war fuhren wir ca. 1 1/2 Std. zur Verladestation und bestiegen ein Long-Tail-Boat. Wir fuhren gut 1 1/2 Std auf dem Stausee zum Ausgangspunkt für die Dschungelwanderung mit Blutegel-Garantie. Am Mittag waren wir dann wieder auf dem schwimmenden Insel-Restaurant. Leider war das Mittagessen kalt und es gab nicht genügend. Wir vermuten mal der Reiseführer hat es verbockt und wir hätten sofort bei der Ankunft essen sollen. Bei der Rückfahrt mit dem Boat besuchten wir noch kurz eine Kalksteinhöhle und bei regnerischem Wetter dann zurück zum Bus der uns nach einem kurzen Halt beim Aussichtspunkt wieder sicher ins Hotel zurück brachte. Die Informationen vom Reiseleiter waren gut. 2 x 1/12 Std. Bootsfahrt auf einem harten Holzbrett sitzend ist anstrengend. 2 x 1 1/2 Std Busfahrt auch.

We had a fantastic stay of one night on the water bungalows and one night at the rock and treehouse resort. Our guide, Sam and our driver Toy were excellent for the entire thing! Our pickup was the only hiccup as it was supposed to be at 745am and we luckily woke up at 7 and I checked my email and they wrote to me at 6am that morning our pickup was going to be at 7! My husband ran down and told the driver we got the email last second and luckily they were kind while we quickly got ready and left. Our group was small with 4 people which was really cool they were all very nice. The lake is beautiful and pictures do not do it justice. The 2 hour long tail boat ride was cool just hurt sitting on our butts that long! We saw so many things on our safari elephant, lizards, king fishers, wild chicken & deer (hilarious to us the guides were SO excited to see deer when where we live we almost hit them constantly with our car) boars, turtle, pigs, monkeys and toucans. Not much to see on the night safari but being in the water in the deep jungle at night with a full moon was just gorgeous and such a cool experience. The water bungalows are BASIC. For one night we didn’t mind and it’s the trade off for being so deep in the jungle and being able to see all the wildlife you can. It’s a little hut size of a large closet with two small mattresses (more like cushions in width) a mosquito net and to my surprise an outlet and small outdoor light. Bring earplugs for the insects they’re quite loud but again the lodging is just fine for one night. The bathrooms are the best they can do up the hill on a somewhat rickidy makeshift dock that you need to dump the water in to flush yourself but again, you’re two hours into the deep jungle you can’t expect or demand more than that. The food was plenty and delicious and always more than what we could finish. Lots of bottle water always readily available. Definitely bring your swim suit as the lake is warm and clear and so clean and we could’ve stayed in it for hours! Kayaking is nice as well. Second day jungle river hike was cool they give you ‘socks’ to wear as you go through some water with your shoes (bring ones you don’t mind getting wet and light in color to see the leeches to pull them off) and there are leeches in the water and they stop the leeches from getting on you. One little guy still made it on me but now I have a cool story no biggie! We stayed in the rock and treehouse resort our second night and that was so beautiful! All the amenities you could ask for and the food was delicious best green curry I’ve had! The kayak ride the next day was so stunning the water cool and clear (and leech free!) and we got so close to some adorable monkeys. The elephant ride was cool but after we felt kinda bad for her and thought about her having to do that all day everyday and wouldn’t do that again but respect the respect they show their elephants. Then we fed monkeys banana and left early to travel to Koh Samui which Sam so nicely arranged everything for us to get there in an affordable way. Highly recommend Sam he was a hoot and such a nice guy to guide us as well as chat and learn about Thailand and their way of life. He’s just so softly spoken. We missed some things he said he’s gotta speak a little louder😄! Would recommend spending time in this beautiful park if you’re in Thailand it would be an absolute shame to not! Sorry about the lengthy review but I wish there had been one for us before going to better know what was ahead!Bring: bug repellent (not as buggy as we thought but they’re out there), waterproof shoes, sunscreen, bathing suit, flip flops for boat adventures, waterproof bag for phone while in boat to take pictures (amazon has great cheap ones) and a great attitude!

Una gita ottima organizzata alla perfezione con non tante persone eravamo 8 guida simpatica ,sicuramente molto turistica ma fatta bene .isola bella con scoglio veramente impressionante,villaggio nell’acqua da non perdere con campo da calcetto appena si attracca veramente fuori di ogni immaginazione.ristorante da evitare ma compreso nella gita,gita in canoa tra le mangrovie e grotte suggestiva ed addirittura ti stampano foto al termine come il miglior disneyland.

We booked an airport to hotel transfer with this company when we flew into Phuket and stayed at Khao Lak. We were impressed with the price and service so asked them to send someone to the hotel the next day to book some tours. A German chap called Lars came and spent ages with us going through all the options. He was really knowledgeable and helpful but not at all pushy. We ended up booking 3 trips and thoroughly enjoyed them all. Couldn't fault them on anything. Vehicles and drivers all top notch. Trips were all very well organised. Included lunches were at really nice places and food delicious. The best thing was the guides.. we had Dido for the elephant safari and bath (ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS TRIP!!) Don for the Similan islands trip (he was so funny, but also so knowledgeable and really careful with safety and comfort of all the guests) and Michael for the off road safari (a lovely German man who was obviously a regular on this trip and his enthusiasm and love for the area was infectious) All three were first class and made the trips so enjoyable. Thankyou Khao Lak Land Discovery. Would definitely use you again.
