Khao lak Adventure: Bamboo Rafting and Elephant Sanctuary Experience

About this tour

Embark on an exciting adventure early in the morning with a complimentary pickup service from your hotel. As you travel to your first destination, enjoy the picturesque views of local life in southern Thailand. 

Arriving at the Wang Kiang Koo waterfall, our local paddlers will be waiting for you at the river bank with a gigantic bamboo raft ready to be boarded. Experience an unforgettable ride on the bamboo raft as our paddlers skillfully maneuver the raft through the Kiang Koo waterfall’s stream. After the thrilling ride, take a refreshing dip in the clear water. 

Next, visit the Sea Turtle Conservation Center, where you can get up close and personal with the turtles. Learn about their species and the efforts made to rescue and protect them. You’ll also have the chance to see turtles of different sizes, species, and colors. 

Then, head to Wat Lak Kaen, one of the oldest and most significant temples in the area. Hear the story of Buddha’s holy relic as you explore the temple. 

Afterward, enjoy a delicious southern Thai set lunch at a local restaurant located near Wang Kiang Koo waterfall. 

Continue your adventure by visiting an elephant sanctuary and meeting the friendly giants. Learn about their individual stories and the rescue efforts made to protect them. Interact with the elephants by giving them a meal with the help of their caretaker (mahout). You can also enjoy a fun mud spa with the elephants and feed them from your own hands while taking some amazing photos for your Instagram. 

At the end of your adventurous day, hop back on the van and return to your hotel.
