We went on the Khao Lak Safari tour and had an amazing time, making new friends and enjoying some wonderful experiences. Jennie our guide was a star, who made the whole day a pleasure. We really enjoyed bathing with the elephants and the bamboo rafting.

We booked this All Day Khao Lak Expedition tour through the tour desk at our resort and was not disappointed. We were picked up on time by our tour guide Red and driver Bird. We were picked up in a comfortbale clean van and taken out to the Wat Lak Kaen Buddhist Temple , Then we headed to the Sea Turtle Conservation and rehabilitation centre, Lam Kaen.From there we headed to Poseidon Beach for a walk or swim then refreshments at By Leo Beach Cafe. From here we then went to Bamboo Rafting & ATV Somnuek Travel khaolak Phang Nga for a river raft ride along the Lam Ru Yai River where we passed under several snakes sunning themselves in the trees.It wasn't until we were almost finished that our River guide told us "No green one Python No venomous Black & Yellow very venomous bite hospital very quick or no good!!" Gee thanks could you not take us directly under them🤣🤣.After the river ride it was lunchtime at a local restaurant for a variety of Thai dishes, chicken, beef and prawn.After lunch we headed to the Tsunami Police Boat Memorial site. This is where a police boat that was anchored a nautical mile offshore was picked up by the Tsunami wave and dumped 2 km inland where when the water started to subside and show the absolute destruction it had caused the boat was left on a pile of rubble and mud. Too big and too damaged to extract and get back to water it has been turned into a memorial and a reminder of that fateful day. Very moving and eye opening experience.After this we got into a 4WD and headed into the mountain jungles. The 4WD was not the one in the tour pictures when booking and was not exactly comfortable on the lumpy bumpy tracks. we then commenced a short walk 25mins up a steep path to a magnificent waterfall which you could swim at the bottom of and take some fantastic photos. the same walk back to 4WD then transferred back into the comfortable van for a nice trip back to the resort for another swim 5pm 32° and 95% humidity!! All in all a great day. Thanks Red & Bird.***Make sure you take wet shoes and bathers.
