Description
Spend a day immersed in rural life riding a bamboo raft, meeting sea turtles, and visiting a temple tucked in the lush green mountains of Southern Thailand on a guided trip from Phuket. Visit a conservation center and work alongside elephant caretakers to feed and bathe the animals. Start your adventure bright and early with pickup from your hotel in Phuket. Enjoy the sights of local life in the southern part of Thailand as you drive to your first stop, Wang Kiang Koo waterfall. Be greeted by local paddlers at the river bank. Hop on a gigantic bamboo raft, and see your paddler in action as they maneuver the raft along the stream of Kiang Koo waterfall. After the rafting adventure, play in the crystal clear waters of the river. Next, visit the Sea Turtle Conservation Center for a turtle encounter. Hear about the turtles and how they were rescued. Explore the conservation center and meet different sizes, species, and colors of sea turtles. Continue to Wat Lak Kaen, one of the oldest and most significant temples in the area. Hear the story of the Buddha's holy relic from your guide. From here, head to a local restaurant at Wang Kiang Koo waterfall and savor a delicious southern Thai set lunch. Make a quick stop to discover the heartfelt story of Police Boat 813 Bangniang. Once a vigilant guardian of the seas, this vessel met an untimely fate during the tsunami, a poignant reminder of the power of nature. Hear tales of bravery and resilience, before continuing to your next activity. Then, visit an elephant sanctuary to interact with friendly giants. Hear about their individual stories. Work with the loving elephant carer (mahout), bathe the elephants in a mud spa and, feed them from your own hands while taking some photos to capture your experience.
