The spirit of travel
The white sand of Khao Lak stretches beneath the casuarina trees, while offshore, the Similan Islands emerge from turquoise waters like polished granite jewels. On these intact coral reefs, marine life displays its colors in a silent ballet of butterfly fish and green sea turtles.
The circuit then leads to Khao Sok National Park, where pristine tropical rainforest shelters elephants and encloses Cheow Lan Lake with its limestone peaks. In Krabi, the karstic formations of Phang Nga Bay reveal secret lagoons bordered by mangroves, before reaching the preserved archipelago of Koh Lanta. Between long-tail boat excursions, swimming with the pachyderms and cycling through rubber plantations, each stage offers an immersion in the emblematic landscapes of the Andaman Sea.
This region of southern Thailand concentrates the most diverse ecosystems in the kingdom: coral reefs classified as a marine reserve, rainforest dating back 160 million years, coastlines carved by karstic erosion. A journey that reveals the raw beauty of a still wild nature, far from tourist crowds.

Similan Islands Excursion
Today we set off for a full day boat excursion that will take us to the Similan Islands. This small archipelago 65 km from the coast is a true paradise for lovers of white sand beaches and divers.
With mask and snorkel, you will be able to enjoy extremely rich marine life in the coral reefs. Activity carried out within a group of travelers. English-speaking guide.
Khao Sok National Park
After breakfast, we meet up with our driver who will take us to Khao Sok National Park, one of the most beautiful parks in the country, notably thanks to its large emerald green lake Chiew Larn and its limestone peaks that could sometimes make you believe you are in Halong Bay in Vietnam. Rivers, caves, waterfalls, tree houses… complete the picturesque landscapes of the area. This humid tropical forest is one of the oldest in the world, often estimated to be over 160 million years old (even older than the Amazon).
Our program for the day will begin at 3 PM. We will accompany and assist with bathing the elephants, before feeding them their meal.
At the end of the day, return to our accommodation for dinner (not included). Activity accompanied by a local English-speaking guide in a small group (Max 6 participants). Overnight stay at Khao Sok Paradise Resort in Threelodge
Khao Sok National Park
In the late afternoon, take advantage of a final boat excursion to observe the sunset. Return to the floating complex for dinner. Night in a magical setting in the stilt bungalows of Panvaree
This morning, we then head to the Cheow Lan Lake. From there, a boat awaits us to transfer us to our floating accommodation. We have some free time to swim in the clear waters of the lake.
Excursion in the Islands of Hong
Transfer to the stunning natural beauty of Phang Nga Bay, with its breathtaking landscapes and unique caves hidden among the massive limestone cliffs.
We begin our journey on the water in the most traditional way – our longtail boat takes us along the lush mangrove forests, which are, among other things, the habitat of monitor lizards, snakes, long-tailed macaques and various species of birds.
We will reach the islands of Koh Hong, an archipelago renowned for its shallow coral reefs and beaches like Koh Ladin and Pak Bier. On the island, the white sand of rare fineness and the emerald green sea make the surroundings magical. You will discover the interior of the island during a beautiful walk that will take you to the viewing point where you will enjoy a magnificent 360° view of all the surrounding islands!
You will also discover its incredible lagoon, surrounded by massive verdant peaks and bordered by mangroves.
Return transfer to your hotel.
