Definitely worth doing from Krabi

This experience in Khao Sok absolutely earned 5 stars. It was one of those days that doesn’t even feel real. The views of the lake and towering limestone cliffs were unreal, something you truly have to see in person to appreciate. Everything was beautifully paced. We explored a cave, had a great guide who made the day smooth and enjoyable, and lunch was actually really good. The timing was perfect too, especially having time to swim after lunch, which was such a highlight. The only thing I would note is that they didn’t emphasize enough how important proper footwear is. Tennis shoes are highly recommended, and I wore slides, which wasn’t ideal. I’d suggest bringing sandals if you want options, but definitely plan to wear sneakers for comfort and safety. Make sure to pack sunscreen and follow the packing list they provide, and you’ll be set for an incredible day. Honestly, one of the most memorable experiences.

Sun and water

The drive there was three hours and the return drive was two hours. Had I known this I probably would not have gone. This was on me, however for not checking that was my complaint. The place itself was gorgeous. I would have preferred more time spent swimming and relaxing. Although the jungle walk and cave were interesting, they were not what I was expecting. I did enjoy the boat ride to get to where we were going.

Nature at its best, come rain or shine!

The natural beauty of the limestone pillars is amazing…in rain or shine (we had both!). The tour was very informative and interesting. Our guides were very good, answered all our questions & looked after us well. We visited a cave and had a jungle walk to the side of the lake. Then lunch at a floating restaurant. A very good day.

Really nice experience

It was a nice experience - the guide, Tuktuk was friendly, informative & funny, kept us entertained. Lunch was provided and the food was ok. We had plenty of time to bathe when we reached the water bungalows and the short hike in the jungle was also nice, even though it started to rain (rain ponchos were provided). The cave was also great to experience. This natural park is a wonder. If you would like to see what Khao Sok is about and don’t want to adventure too much, this is a great tour. If we get to Khao Sok again, we will probably get a rental nearby and explore the park over several days 🙂. If you are sensitive to sound, bring some ear plugs for the long tail boat, because it’s a long ride.

Wonderful serene lake

This was a wonderful tour and our guide was great and very knowledgeable. I wished we could have more photos opportunities with our family while on the boat ride to all the places as the views were so pretty. I would recommend this tour company just be ready for a long day tour.

Good experience for the lake

Lake is very nice, meal place is so "superficial" & "tourist attraction", and step in "jungle" was not necessary for us, our guide was super nice.

Epic views and great service but a very long day!

If you only have one day to see this natural wonder, this is a great tour for you. Just be ready for a lot of time in transit - perhaps 8-9 of the 12 hours (we left from Krabi Town and were dropped off in Ao Nang.) The driver was great and the ride was comfortable. The tour guide was very kind and generous, and we could understand her most of the time. Be prepared for physical exertion in the hike to the bamboo raft to get to the cave. The views were well worth the trip!
