During a short hike through the forest you have the opportunity to explore an intact ecosystem. Sure you will be impressed by the unique ambience of the rainforest.

Namtok Ron Khlong Thom The waterfall, located quite near to the Emerald pool, is in a shady forest area with numerous hot springs.

Visiting the Tiger cave temple is one of the things you must do in Krabi! The Tiger cave temple, also known as Wat Tham Suea in Thai, is one of the most sacred Buddhist temples in Thailand. The Tiger cave temple is known for the tiger paw prints in the cave, the tall Buddha statues and of course the exhausting hike up the Tiger cave temple mountain with incredible views. But it’s absolutely worth climbing the 1260 steps until you reach the summit on top of the 309 meter high cliff. The view over Krabi is amazing with all the limestone cliffs and beautiful lush rain forest.

Duration: 2 hoursAdmission: NO

Good trip

Our driver was lovely, courteous and polite. And also very flexible regarding timing because it was a private trip. But note this is not advertised as a ‘guided tour’ so we assume that was why there was no commentary or information provided by the driver about the journey or places we visited.

Taxi service

Basically this tour was a taxi service to the 3 tourist sites. Driver did not speak English we could communicate with him or receive any information when dropped off at each location. All he did was point us in the direction we had to walk.
