Tony was an excellent guide and full of lots of information.My dad found it very exciting seeing & feeding the elephants - There was a bit of confusion about the pick up time. It says to meet 10 minutes before so we thought we had to meet at 10 to 10 but the activity started at 10 our pick up was at 9:15 but no one told us that that’s the only thing I can say that was negative about the whole trip. was a lovely morning out from start to finish and the food was absolutely gorgeous and the turtles were really cute, especially the baby ones.

Khao Lak highlights trip - Excellent half day trip. Ended up being a little longer as we waited for other people to join at the elephant sanctuary- which was great as we got to see more of the elephants feeding, walking round and bathing. Food was excellent and our guide was brilliant. I had the impression that we would be able to cool off in the waterfall but it is not suitable for bathing. Travel was in an open back truck with h side seats and not a minivan/car.

A "Win"ner all the way... - We were picked up on time by "Win" our guide & taken to a local temple, this was followed by a dip in the Sai Rung waterfall then on to the highlight of the excursion, the elephant sanctuary. We then visited the Tsunami museum followed by the turtle conservation centre at the naval base and then finally had a lovely Thai lunch at the Waterside restaurant. This excursion had a great variety of activities and our guide "Win" was very friendly & informative.

Excellent trip - Temple, stunning, Turtles and elephants a very emotional experience. It was moving to see the care afforded to both. The waterfall was breathtaking. The tsunami museum was a moving experience, a very sad event in Thailands history, very well documented.

Nice n Easy local tour - Nice local trip taking only half of the day. The highlight was the Elephant sanctuary, we were up close & personal with the Elephants. Informative guide & a pleasant lunch.
