Start your day by getting picked up from your hotel and embark on a journey to Tawan elephant farm, where you can get up close and personal with these gentle giants while feeding them.

Next, we'll take you to the breathtaking Than Sadet beach, known for its stunning natural beauty and crystal-clear waters. Enjoy swimming and climbing to the source of the island's most beautiful and longest waterfall. Don't forget to take a moment to admire the monument dedicated to King Rama V, who loved visiting this paradise island.

At Wat Khao Tham, a traditional Theravada Buddhist monastery, you'll discover one of the most breathtaking panoramic views on Koh Phangan. Witness the coconut plantation in action as the resident short-tailed macaque demonstrates their impressive skill of twisting coconuts without any insurance.

Experience the wonder of nature with a visit to the oldest and largest tree on the island - the 400-year-old Yang Na Yai. Take a moment to touch, stroke, and walk around the giant tree.

Our tour also includes a visit to the famous Haadrin Beach, where you can witness the legendary Full Moon Party. Enjoy the panoramic view point and indulge in a traditional Thai lunch at the beautiful Cabana restaurant located on the beach in the bay of Haad Chao Phao. Take a dip in the sea or pool if you like.

Discover the beauty of Mae Haad Beach and explore the famous Koh Ma island connected to the beach by a sandbar. Snorkel, swim or just relax while enjoying a cup of freshly brewed coffee with a view of Koh Ma.

Visit the Chinese temple and witness the local tradition of fortune-telling using “Siamsi” sticks. Admire the statue of Guan Yin and light fragrant sticks for the Happy Buddha on the hill.

Take a picture-perfect moment at sunset near the famous "sleeping" palm trees on the beach before concluding your journey with a visit to the oldest Buddhist temple on the island, Phu Khao Noi, where you'll learn about the basics of Buddhist religious culture.

Finally, we'll transfer you back to your hotel with memories that will last a lifetime. Don't miss out on this incredible island adventure!
