Our Original Khao Lak Nature Tour, designed by Phuket Travel Store, invites you to discover the area's untouched beauty, guided by local experts who are passionate about sharing the true essence of this region.
This full-day Khao Lak eco-tour is perfect for travelers seeking a blend of soft adventure, nature, wildlife, and cultural immersion. Whether you're a solo explorer, a couple, or a family, you’ll leave with a deeper connection to authentic Khao Lak.
Start Your Adventure – Hotel Pickup & Warm Welcome
Your day begins with a comfortable hotel pickup in the Khao Lak area, where you’ll be greeted by your friendly local guide. After a short introduction, it's time to leave the tourist paths behind and venture into Khao Lak’s rainforest region.
Bamboo Rafting Through the Jungle
Our first experience is a peaceful journey along a jungle river aboard a traditional bamboo raft. Always shared in small groups or pairs, this ride is one of the highlights of the tour. As your personal raft guide gently navigates through the water, you’ll drift beneath towering trees, surrounded by sounds of birds, insects, and the gentle splash of paddles.
This bamboo rafting experience in Khao Lak is both calming and immersive. Keep your eyes open—you may even spot monkeys, colorful birds, or reptiles basking on the riverbanks. It's the perfect introduction to eco-tourism in southern Thailand.
Visit Lampi Waterfall – A Cool Refreshing Stop
Next, we’ll make our way to Lampi Waterfall, one of Khao Lak’s natural gems. Hidden within the forest, this multi-tiered waterfall offers a cool, refreshing stop. Take photos, splash your feet, or simply relax to the soothing sound of rushing water. It’s a great place to cool off during your Khao Lak jungle tour and connect with nature.
Turtle Conservation Center – Learn & Be Inspired
Afterward, we visit a local sea turtle conservation center dedicated to the rescue, care, and release of sea turtles. Here, you’ll see turtles of various ages and species in a protected environment. Learn how these gentle marine creatures are raised safely until they are strong enough to return to the wild.
Your guide will explain the importance of turtle conservation in Thailand, and how this project helps protect marine biodiversity. It's an educational and meaningful part of your day—ideal for travelers who want to support responsible wildlife tourism.
Enjoy a Delicious Thai Set Lunch

Walk the Nature Trail to Had Lek Beach

This hidden beach is the perfect place to unwind, enjoy the sea breeze, and reflect on the beauty you’ve witnessed throughout the day.

Customer Testimonials
Wunderschönes Erlebnis mit Elefanten!
Das war einer der schönsten Ausflüge, die wir je gemacht haben. Die Elefanten leben hier wirklich artgerecht - kein Reiten, kein Zwang, einfach nur Ruhe und Respekt. Wir konnten sie füttern, mit ihnen spazieren gehen und sie aus nächster Nahe erleben. Die Atmosphäre war total entspannt, nichts war überlaufen oder touristisch übertrieben. Auch die Guides waren super freundlich und haben viel über die Tiere und den Hintergrund des Projekts erzählt. Man merkt sofort: Hier steht das Wohl der Tiere an erster Stelle. Für alle, die Tiere lieben und auf verantwortungsvollen Tourismus Wert legen, ist das ein absolutes Muss. Danke an Phuket Travel Store für diese besondere Erfahrung!
