★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 48 reviews · 6 hours · from $51 a head Best rated

“This trip was spectacular. I can’t rate it high enough. The elephants were clearly very happy and roamed freely in the jungle and were never forced to do anything. Being so close to these awesome animals was a life affirming experience, I felt privileged to walk with them and observe them in their natural habitat. The guide was knowledgeable and provided us with lots of insight. The rafting was fantastic with amazing scenery and the lunch was plentiful and freshly cooked, so tasty. Thoroughly recommend.”

8.White Water Rafting and Zipline Adventure

The drive from Ao Nang can take 1 to 2 hours, and extra activities may create waiting time, so plan for a full day.

“It’s a good activity- ignore the other reviews. Picked up on time, 1-2 hour drive to the location from Ao Nang, with a stop break. Staff were super professional, communicative, and friendly.
