Overview
Khao Sok is one of Thailand's hidden secrets. Here you will find one of the oldest evergreen rainforests in the world, huge limestone mountains, deep valleys, breathtaking lakes, spectacular caves, wild animals and much more. An early morning drive from Phuket will take you through the Phang Nga Province to Khao Sok and as you near the national park, the rubber plantations are replaced with views of forest covered mountains. One of the best ways to experience this beautiful jungle is by inflatable canoe, taking you along an ancient trade route that once linked China and India. A local guide will gently paddle your canoe along the River Sok, past scenes of exotic tropical vegetation clinging to the river banks, towering trees and stunning limestone river cliffs and mountains. Birds such as hornbill, kingfisher, heron and egret plus reptiles and monkeys can often be spotted along the way.

Here you will learn about local elephant conservation projects and see the traditional training methods before joining an unforgettable elephant trek. jungle trails.
