Questions we get most often

What are the most popular tours from Khao Lak?

The Similan Islands, James Bond Island in Phang Nga Bay, Khao Sok National Park and Cheow Lan Lake, the Phi Phi Islands and our Krabi 4-Island trip are the tours guests book most. Snorkelling day trips and rainforest tours are the two strongest categories.

How far in advance should I book a tour?

We recommend booking popular tours such as the Similan Islands at least 2–3 days ahead, and earlier during high season (November to April), when boats sell out. Quieter tours can usually be arranged a day ahead.

Are Khao Lak tours suitable for families?

Most tours are family friendly. Snorkelling trips to the Similan and Phi Phi Islands suit children from roughly 4 years old, and our rainforest and lake tours work well for all ages. Child rates apply — tell us your children's ages and we will recommend the right trip.

What is included in the price of a Khao Lak tour?

Prices include hotel pickup and drop-off in the Khao Lak area, a professional guide, meals where the tour specifies them, national park entrance fees, snorkelling equipment on sea trips, drinking water and insurance. Prices are shown per person in Thai baht (฿).

When is the best time of year for tours from Khao Lak?

High season runs from November to April, with the calmest seas and clearest water. The Similan and Surin Islands close for the monsoon season from 16 May to 14 October and reopen on 15 October each year. Khao Sok, Phang Nga Bay and the Phi Phi Islands run year-round.

Do you book directly, or through a booking platform?

You book directly with us. Khao Lak Land Discovery is a locally based, TAT-licensed tour operator (licence 41/00132) with our own guides and vehicles — not an online reseller. That means the price you see is our own rate and the team answering your messages is here in Khao Lak.

Do you offer tours with a German- or French-speaking guide?

On selected tours we can arrange a German- or French-speaking guide — please tell us when you book. All of our guides speak fluent English. For groups of 8 or more we can run a dedicated tour in German or French on request. Private tours can always be guided in German or French on request.
