Overnight Lake Trip
Spending a night in a floating bungalow on Cheow Lan Lake is a must do when visiting Khao Sok National Park. Discover this breathtaking ancient landscape by boat, trek through the dense virgin jungle, take a dip in the turquoise waters and much more.
This trip will take you out to one of the famous floating raft houses, where you will have some time to relax and explore the surrounding environment. Your guide will then take you on a hike to a local waterfall, a cave, a viewpoint or along a nature trail (depending on the season, the weather conditions, the location of the floating bungalows, and the guides› preference). In the evening you will head back to the raft house for a delicious dinner and to enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of this tranquil hideaway.
It’s up early in the morning for a lake boat safari. The early hours offer the best chances to spot some wildlife and a unique atomosphere. Then it’s back to the floating lake house for breakfast and to collect your belongings before heading out to the most scenic spots of the lake to take some pictures before returning to the pier for lunch. After lunch, you will make your way back to Monkey Mansion.
Please note that standard group tours are (most of the time) organized and managed by third-party tour operators. we can thus not choose the tour guide, nor can we control the exact tour program and group size. we do not book specific bungalows for these tours, only «spots» on the group. your floating bungalow will be assigned to you by the tour guide on the spot. furthermore, please be aware that the lake accommodation for standard group tours is very basic and rustic. the floating bungalows booked for these standard group tours do not have private bathrooms. if you wish to have a more customized tour program and a higher standard floating bungalow, a private tour will certainly be a better choice for you. due to high demand, floating bungalows are typically fully booked quickly. we therefore strongly recommend you book this tour well in advance to ensure availability.
