Rafting with elephant trekking: white water meets jungle idyll
This combo is for everyone who wants to combine rafting with a real animal encounter: after visiting the Suwankuha cave temple, you ride 5.5 kilometers of Class II–III rapids through the Phang Nga jungle. A Thai buffet lunch gives you energy for the afternoon.
Then come 200 meters of flying fox above the canopy (max. 90 kg) and, for many guests, the highlight: 30 minutes of elephant trekking along natural jungle paths, accompanied by experienced mahouts. At the waterfall you can swim and relax before the return transfer to Phuket.
The tour takes about 7.5 hours and is the right choice if you want maximum experiences without an ATV. Child rate: 4–10 years. Not suitable for pregnant women or people with back problems or limited mobility.
