Nice short trip - Very peaceful and calm drift down the river. It took about 40 minutes. We saw a snake in the tree, birds and butterflies. Sea turtles are beautiful creatures. You can see them at different ages. Our guide Marta was nice, explained us everything. It's not much interaction in the trip but it's just nice experience.

Wonderful half day tour - Wonderful half day tour from 9am to 12 noon. Booked the group tour but end up only us with a driver and guide due to low season. Loved the bamboo drafting so serene and calm. We see a few snakes on the tree and in the water. Followed by turtle conversation center and quick stop by at the small waterfall for pictures. Overall a memorable trip and highly recommended.

Turtle Shelter Visit - Brilliant visit to the Turtle Shelter where they look after the sick and damaged turtles, some won’t go back into the wild so they are there to look after them, while walking around you can see the amazing work they are doing also on their beach they have got statues of wildlife but filled with all the plastic they have collected. There is also a boat that got washed into shore from when the tsunami happened

Lovely day! 🩷 - This was such a good trip! I didn’t expect much as it’s great value for money compared to other trips. But this actually turned out to me one of my favourite trips I’ve done in Thailand. This was a lot to do with the lovely young girl who took me around, I ended up being the only one on the tour on this day and it felt like I was on a day trip with one of my best friends, she was so friendly and knowledgeable and told me so many interesting facts as we were going around. The bamboo rafting was so lovely and peaceful we even saw a few snakes. Then the turtle centre was made entirely by the lovely guide who again explained everything to me and was so knowledgable! Had an amazing time. Thank you again and I will be reccomending to others

Book with a confidence. - Brilliant tour guide, speaking fantastic English, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his job. The river was a very low in water, perhaps it would be better in Jan or Feb, but we had an amazing time and a good laugh. The turtle conservation area was well worth to visit. Book with a confidence.

Nice trip - Nice trip, unfortunately it was too dry so the waterfall could not be visited. The water was also too low for the bamboo rafting, but it went ahead. The visit to the turtles was educational.
