Tour Overview

An unforgettable adventure into one of Thailand’s most stunning natural reserves – Khao Yai National Park, the country’s very first national park, founded in the mid-20th century.

Experience the jungle, waterfalls, temples, and wildlife of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Here live elephants, deer, gibbons, wild boars, Asiatic black bears, and even tigers – all in their natural habitat. The park is home to giant trees reaching 60 meters high, wild orchids, and tropical vines.

You’ll see the majestic Haew Narok Waterfall, the famous Haew Suwat Waterfall from “The Beach” movie, and relax at the Sarika Waterfall with a refreshing swim in mineral-rich natural pools.

The tour also includes a visit to a unique art museum created by the architect of the famous White Temple in Chiang Rai, and the mysterious abandoned Tiger Temple hidden deep in the jungle.

Among the highlights is the Pink Ganesha Temple, where travelers can take part in the Ritual of Luck, and the Temple of a Thousand Golden Buddhas, glowing beautifully in the light of the setting sun.
