5.00Having looked carefully at reviews for visiting Khao Sok, we are very happy we chose this tour operator. We were picked up from the hotel and stopped to pick up our Guide, Ron, on the way to the National Park. On arrival, we were led through the rainforest to the waterfall, spotting lizards snakes, spiders, and on the return journey via a different route, a few monkeys in the trees. Once at the waterfall, there was time for a very welcome dip. Lunch was provided at a local restaurant. Then it was onto a nearby spot for bamboo rafting and coffee, prepared in bamboo mugs. One more stop on the way home for the Snoopy Dog viewpoint 🤣. Overall, an enjoyable opportunity way to view this locally protected area. Ron was very knowledgeable, pointing out wildlife we’d never have spotted for ourselves. Ron took care of us, providing water and snacks throughout the day. A great experience. This may be stating the obvious but it was an experience where good footwear was essential; it was uneven and slippery underfoot on occasion. Insect repellent also advised!

5.00We took a trip with the Khao Lak Planner company to Khao Sok Reserve to trek in the jungle. We had a great guide named Gae, who was stunning, professional, smiling and full of energy. We trekked in the jungle while Gae showed us a snake on the tree, lizards that camouflage themselves all over the tree, and shy macaque monkeys on the tree. I highly recommend the trip.
Khao Sok jungle tour, bamboo rafting and overnight stay at Rock and Treehouse resort

4.00After extensive contact and advice booked a two-day tour with Khaolak Planner. This was the first day (Kha Sok). We had a nice driver and guide. Beautiful trip (about 6 km) through Kha Sok National Park where we have seen quite a bit of wildlife. After the trip enjoyed a delicious lunch and then off to bamboo rafting. This was a pretty short trip. The traditional coffee (bamboo cup) making took longer than rafting. Still, we had a nice day. Then to the accommodation for an overnight stay at the Rock and Treehouse resort. That was disappointing. Maybe it's fun for parents with kids, but for couples it's nothing. It's dark and very dated. Then there are bound to be nicer accommodations in Khao Sok.
Awesome day!

5.00We loved the day with our your guide Gay! She was very friendly, kind, and funny, the kids fell in love with Gay! The trail was perfect, we saw lots of animals, including various kinds of monkeys, spiders, and bats. Swimming at the waterfall was very refreshing. The lunch - the variety of food and the quality of food - was excellent!! There were vegan, vegetarian, and chicken options - all of these Thai dishes were delicious! Then we went to float down the river on a bamboo raft. This was very peaceful. In the middle of it was a coffee break. They boiled water inside bamboo pipes and served in bamboo cups that we got as souvenirs! We highly recommend this tour, the company, and our guide, Gay!
Awesome experience

4.00I expected alot because of the high reviews but the walk was not that special. It was 6 km in total, 3 back and forth. We didn´t see many animals and for the most part we walked on an manmade trail so not that beautifull for pictures. Doing the same way back is a bit boring. But we did have a nice swim in a small waterfall. But then the bamboorafting, it was absolutely beautifull! The mountains were incredibly impressive and the tea in the bamboocup was a lovely extra! Woud definitly recommend!
Highly recommended

5.00Gay was a friendly, joyful, informative guide. Our hike was fabulous. We took the “adventurous” trails which were less traveled by others.
