3-day, 2-night journey into the heart of southern Thailand’s most enchanting wilderness: Khao Sok National Park. Starting from Phuket, this tour seamlessly combines nature, adventure, culture, and comfort in a single itinerary, designed for both first-time visitors and seasoned explorers alike.
Your adventure begins with scenic stops and local encounters along the way, including a visit to Buathong Elephant Home to feed and bathe a friendly elephant in the river. Explore waterfalls, meet cheeky monkeys at a local temple, and settle into the serene Cliff & River Resort before trekking deep into the jungle. By nightfall, learn the art of traditional Thai bamboo cooking and dine under the rainforest canopy.
On day two, trade land for water as you cruise across Cheow Lan Lake by longtail boat, marveling at limestone cliffs and hidden caves. Spend the night in a floating bungalow, where kayaking, swimming, and feeding giant fish are just steps from your deck.
The final day offers a tranquil bamboo rafting journey on the Khlong Sok River, complete with tea served in handcrafted bamboo mugs. End your trip with a cultural highlight — a visit to Wat Mahathat Wachiramongkol, an impressive Indian-style temple with intricate murals and spiritual ceremonies.
This tour is a perfect blend of wildlife encounters, outdoor adventure, authentic Thai cuisine, and cultural discovery — an immersive experience that showcases the very best of Khao Sok National Park in just three days.

This is Sam and Sara, we are founders of TripWays.com and we picked this tour because we wanted to see for ourselves what makes it one of Thailand’s most talked-about nature escapes. From the moment we stepped into the rainforest, it felt like a completely different world, with towering cliffs, jungle sounds at night, and the surreal experience of waking up in a floating water bungalow.
The guides were knowledgeable, the activities (canoeing, elephant bathing, night trek) felt thoughtfully planned, and the balance of adventure and relaxation was just right.
This isn’t just another listing on TripWays. We personally experienced it, loved it, and trust it enough to recommend it to our travelers. If you’re looking for something beyond the beaches of Phuket, this is the journey.
