Live alongside nature with this two-day adventure that takes us into the depths of stunning Khao Sok National Park’s jungle. Located in Surathani province, the sprawling park’s swathe of varying natural beauty takes in ancient rainforests, gushing waterfalls, incredible limestone formations, swathes of mangroves and giant trees and a huge variety of flora and fauna. During this tour, we will explore the area, taking jungle walks to look for the 48 mammals that call the park home, including gibbon, deer, bears and marbled cats. We will also enjoy a bit of bird watching to spot some of the 187 kinds of birds, kayaking along the many waterways that twist through the area, with visits to temples that are set in ancient caves. Overnight accommodation at the park is included.
We will drive from your hotel to Sarasin Bridge, a pedestrian walkway that spans 700 metres and connects Phuket with mainland Thailand, to take photos and enjoy the views. We then visit the Tsunami Memorial Site, which pays tribute to the thousands of people who died during the 2004 tsunami. (These two visits may be skipped if it is a joint programme with Phuket). Afterwards, we head to the Rommanee Hot Spring which you can either try self-foot-spa or whole body. We then tuck into a local lunch at Khaosok Discovery Restaurant before hitting the water to canoe along Khaosok River (45 minutes to 1 hour). The leisurely trip takes us past dramatic limestone cliffs and abundant tropical flora and fauna. We stop at Khaosok to lap up the unparalleled views of the surrounding area before visiting Monkey Temple Cave and its mischievous monkeys before the check-in to your hotel.

After breakfast, we check-out of the hotel and drive to stunning Cheow Lan Lake, known locally as Khao Sok Lake. The beautiful emerald waters, which stretch across an area of 185 sq-km, are dotted with dramatic limestone karsts and flanked by lush green jungle. We arrive at the pier to board a long-tail boat and cruise the calm waters for a gentle journey across the lake before we get back on land for a jungle stroll. We walk along trails that snake through the dense forest, stopping along the way to look at the unique flora and fauna, including colourful butterflies, squirrels, reptiles and a variety of birds. We end our walk at 500 Rai, an area of the lake that is famous for its sunrise and sunset views and is dotted with islands. We board a bamboo raft and head to Pakarang Cave, also called Coral Cave as its stalagmites resemble coral. After lunch at a floating restaurant, we sail back by long-tail boat.

Travel breaks down borders and brings people together: The nearly 900 million people who travel every year make the sector one of the biggest in the world, a major employer and a key element in the global economy. But this has its downside, too: increasing pollutant emissions from the tourist traffic, loss of coastlines and other landscapes through excessive building development and sexual exploitation of children are just some of the negative consequences of the growth in global tourist travel. In order to minimize the negative impacts and enhance the positive ones, our Corporate Responsibility Strategy focuses on four prime issues:
