Traveler Reviews

We had a great 2 days with our guide Prades, we enjoyed the 2 stops on the way to the camp, then Prades was careful to select a jungle hike that was appropriate for us. The accommodation is comfortable and in a green and quiet location outside the park, close to the river. We had a bonus Thai cookery lesson in the evening which we were not expecting, then on day 2 the canoeing on the river which was stunning.

Pradet was extremely friendly and committed to show and tell us as much as possible about the places we went to. The "park of two waters" was gorgeous for vegetation and bright colors. In a shining temple on a hill, whose interior was covered with frescoes and that enshrined a Buddha's precious relic, we met a snake!! (not poisoning, though, according to Pradet). The trekking in the Kao Sok was nice, even though we weren't very lucky with meeting animals. Finally the canoeing descent on the river, the last day, was so fascinating and relaxing. The bungalow we stayed in was really nice and comfortable, surrounded by dense vegetation. Last but not least: the FOOD!! top quality cooking and ... in large quantities! At every meal we stated we weren't very hungry, having eaten so much few hours earlier, but in the end we literally cleaned our plates, which made Pradet laughing so much :-D (We also took a cooking class and learned how to prepare a delicious Tom Ka Gai!)

Die Safari war sehr schön, wirklich lohnenswert. Die Unterkunft war einfach aber passend zum Anlass. Den gesamten Aufenthalt aufgebessert hat der Pradet. Ein toller und positiver Mensch!

My fiance and I went on this excursion in November and we STILL rave about the experience. It was definitely one of the best parts of our 18 day Asian trip thanks in no small part to Pradet (our tour guide). We loved every bit of the experience and he noticed so much in the jungle walk that we would not have otherwise noticed and on the drive back, he even spotted a king cobra! I highly recommend it!

Khao Sok is a beautiful place. Is very natural and interesting The resort is comfortable. Overlooking the scenery With beautiful mountains Which is perfect for relaxing Have delicious food to eat There are many scenic spots nearby so we can experience the beautiful nature. Get beautiful pictures with your loved ones Must not miss here when you come to Surat Thani.

This tour is extremely overpriced compared to almost everything else offered once you're actually in country. The "trekking" through Khao Sok consists of maybe 2-3km up a very busy walking path (I wouldn't even call it a hiking trail). When we asked our guide, Eak, if we could venture further into the park to see more of the waterfalls, he started panicking and became extremely aggressive. He started threatening to leave us in the park if we tried to go further in, saying that we could just camp in the jungle if we didn't like what they had planned. We were absolutely shocked by his behavior. He barely spoke a word to us the rest of the trip otherwise. If you're a family or a couple looking for a very basic, structured, and tourist friendly trip, then I suppose this could be a decent choice. If you want to legitimately experience the outdoors, however, or have some freedom in what you do during these 2 days, then avoid this trip (and Sutin Group) at all costs.

This 2 day - trekking, kayaking, mangrove boardwalk, quiet temple visits with a stay in the basic bungalow next to the Sok river is totally worth it. We had Pradet Khamkong as our personal guide and cook throughout the two days. On Day 1, Pradet picked us (my husband and I) up from our hotel in Krabi and drove us to Koh sok national park. On the way he stopped to show us rubber plantations, pineapple farms, Chedi Wat Bang Riang Temple, quiet riverside to feed fishes next to a cave and took us to a stunning viewpoint after our trek in the national park. Pradet is very knowledgeable about the region's flora and fauna and we found it extremely informative and fun. Pradet is an excellent cook as well and we were glad to have lovely thai meals cooked by him. On day 2 we did the 11km kayak in the Sok river and we could see snakes, many different birds, heard monkeys and enjoyed the beautiful sights around the river. I recommend this trip.
