Tour Itinerary
Pick up from hotels in Phuket by air-conditioned vehicle, then drive north over the bridge to the mainland province of Phang Nga, passing rubber plantations and small villages en route. Travel inland then cross over the rain forest covered mountain pass to Khao Sok. A thousands years ago this was an important trade route between India and China. Khao Sok is part of the largest area of rainforest in Southern Thailand, the scenery is spectacular, jungle covered limestone mountains and pure nature. One of the best ways to experience the jungle is on a canoe trip down the Sok River in inflatable canoes. A local river guide paddles the canoe and is expert at spotting any animals along the way. Pass mountains and cliffs covered in exotic tropical vegetation along the banks of the river. Birds such as kingfisher, heron, egret, various reptiles and even wild monkeys live in this area. The scenery is some of the best in Southern Thailand and what better way to see it than from a canoe. A buffet lunch of Thai dishes cooked not too spicy is provided. In the afternoon arrive at an elephant camp. Information on elephants and their conservation will be given. Explore the jungle by elephant. Sitting high on the back of the elephant get a birds eye view of the jungle, a most unusual experience. Return transfer to hotels in Phuket arriving in the early evening having seen the best natural scenery and real jungle in Southern Thailand.
Please wear non-slip shoes, loose comfortable clothes, bring a small bag or pack with a change of clothes in case you get wet and sun protection or a rain coat depending on the weather. If you want to swim in the river please bring swim wear and towel, please note on some days swimming in the river may not be possible due to weather conditions.
