River & Lake Impression - 2 days
1stday
After an early pickup at your hotel, we will drive through the amazing tropical landscape of Khao Sok towards Surathani. The area we will visit here is pristine and still untouched by tourism. Our first stop will bring us to an ancient unnamed Buddhist temple featuring sculptures and wall paintings dating back to the Sukothai period, some 800 years ago.
We will then walk through an interesting cave before having lunch by the river. By Longtail boat, we will explore Tapi River and its canals which are surrounded by dense rain forest. At a nearby monkey school, we will see how moneys are taught to pick coconuts. After a visit to the fresh market in the city, we will check into a local city hotel near the river. We will then enjoy a homestay sunset dinner at a local family’s house. After dinner, we embark on a Longtail boat journey to the river banks, where millions of fireflies illuminate the night. End of day one – approx. 09:00 p.m.
2ndday
After breakfast, we will visit the Cheow Lan Lake“. The lake’s surroundings provide exciting views over mountains, bizarre lime stone formations and wild jungle. An all abundant variety of wildlife awaits the curious visitor. After a scenic 70 minute “Longtail” boat ride, we will arrive at our jungle trek departure point. After a 40 minute walk, we arrive at a little lake which we will cross by bamboo raft.
Then, after yet another short walk, we reach the entrance of “Pakarang” Cave (pakarang: coral). Equipped with head lamps, we’ll explore this cave to find giant columns, stalagmites, stalactites and calcite ponds with coral-alike structures. We will then stop for lunch at the ranger station and go for a quick bath in the lake before we depart again for Khao Lak. Another exciting and unforgettable day in paradise!
