Additional drop-off locations along the route may be possible upon request. Option 3: Private Tour with Hotel Pickup at 6:30 AM & Drop-off at the hotel Tour Overview: Depart from Bangkok at 6:30 AM and travel directly to Khao Yai National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, arriving by 9:30 – 10:00 AM. Itinerary: Scenic Stop at KM 30 Viewpoint – Enjoy breathtaking views of northern Khao Yai National Park, a perfect spot for photos. Nature Walk at Nong Phak Chi (KM 33) – Walk through diverse ecosystems for approximately 2.5 hours, passing an observation tower, a salt lick (which attracts wildlife), open grasslands, and a serene lake. Please note: The walk is led by an official park ranger. Some rangers may have limited or no English skills, but they are highly experienced in navigating the park’s trails and ensuring safety. Lunch – Enjoy a Thai à la carte dish with drinking water at a local restaurant. Sai Sorn Reservoir & Lam Takhong Campsite – Capture beautiful landscapes and observe deer and butterflies in their natural habitat. Haew Suwat Waterfall – Visit the iconic waterfall made famous in The Beach movie. While swimming is not allowed, there are plenty of shaded areas to relax. After a full day of nature exploration, return to Bangkok, arriving at MBK Center at 6:30 PM (or your hotel if you booked the private tour). Important Notes: 1. The nature walk portion is conducted by a park ranger, not a private tour guide. 2. English-speaking guides are available before and after the walk, but do not accompany guests on the trail. We recommend this tour for adventurous travelers who enjoy nature and wildlife experiences.
