Day 3Ko Samui

Today you’re in for a treat. Board a traditional longtail boat in the morning and set off to the islands of Ko Mat Sum and Ko Taen. Indulge in a local lunch at the beach and then choose to relax, explore more on foot, by kayak, or with a snorkel. There’s so much to do and see, especially under the calm, clear waters.

Day 4Ko Samui/Khao Sok

Board a ferry to reach the mainland for your drive to Kao Thep Pitak. This community-owned farm is supported by G Adventures. It’s here that you’ll have lunch and take a walk through the surrounding fruit orchards. Then, it’s onward to Khao Sok National Park, where the group will stay at a sustainable, community-focused eco-lodge near the park boundary. After dark head out with a community guide into the rainforest to witness the jungle at night.
