2 Days 1 Night - Cheow Lan Lake
(Overnight on Raft House)

Embark on an Unforgettable Wildlife Adventure in Khao Sok National Park.

Leave the tourist crowds behind and step into the untouched wilderness of Khao Sok National Park—a hidden paradise where nature reigns supreme. Over two thrilling days, immerse yourself in dense jungles, marvel at towering limestone cliffs, and encounter exotic wildlife in their natural habitat.

Your adventure begins with a serene longtail boat ride across the emerald waters of Cheow Lan Lake, surrounded by breathtaking scenery. As you drift deeper into the heart of the park, every turn reveals a new wonder—mysterious forests, ancient rock formations, and glimpses of elusive creatures few have the chance to see.

When night falls, retreat to rustic bamboo huts floating on the lake’s peaceful surface, lulled to sleep by the soothing sounds of the jungle. The symphony of nocturnal creatures—chirping insects, distant bird calls, and the occasional splash of water—creates an atmosphere of pure tranquility.

Wake up to mist rolling over the lake and embark on early-morning explorations, when wildlife is most active. Each moment in this remote sanctuary is a chance to reconnect with nature and experience Thailand’s wild beauty in its purest form.

This isn’t just a getaway—it’s a journey into the soul of the jungle, a rare chance to step off the beaten path and embrace the raw, unfiltered magic of the natural world. Prepare for two unforgettable days that will leave you enchanted, refreshed, and craving more.

Jungle Art by nature

Embark on a private boat journey, guided by a local expert who knows every hidden corner of Cheow Lan Lake. This exclusive tour will take you on a scenic adventure across the reservoir and into carefully selected wildlife observation spots. The experience is thoughtfully designed across two key times: early morning and late afternoon, offering the best chances to encounter wildlife.

During these magical hours, a variety of animals venture out to drink from the lake’s edge and wander along the ancient forest boundaries that border the reservoir. This is a rare opportunity for nature lovers to witness animals—completely undisturbed—in their natural habitat, as they move freely along the pristine wilderness.

Whether you are a wildlife enthusiast or someone seeking a deeper connection with nature, this tour promises a truly immersive experience, where every moment is a chance to encounter the raw beauty of Thailand’s untouched wildlife. If you crave the thrill of observing animals in their true environment, this is the adventure you’ve been waiting for.

Cheow Lan Dam, a vast lake with an incredible atmosphere.

The Cheow Lan Dam, also known as the Ratchaprapa Dam, spans an immense area once filled with forests, villages, temples, fields, and mountain ranges, covering hundreds of thousands of rai. By damming three rivers, it transformed the landscape into a vast reservoir, creating breathtaking scenery beyond imagination. Mountain peaks that now rise above the water have become islands, while remaining forests flourish, turning the area into a haven for rare wildlife.

The landscape features striking limestone mountains, towering cliffs, and an abundance of beautiful rock formations. The vast waters reflect sunlight through the leaves, giving the reservoir an enchanting blue hue. This package offers you an adventure to explore every scenic corner of this freshwater paradise, immersing yourself in the natural wonders and hidden gems of the lake.

Wild forest, animals and cave.

In the Khlong Saeng Forest, a wildlife and plant conservation area, your guide will lead you on a trek to spot rare wildlife and marvel at ancient trees that are thousands of years old. The journey continues with a ride on a bamboo raft powered by a small engine, taking you deeper into the wilderness to discover a hidden cave.

This cave, carefully concealed within the forest, contains nine significant chambers waiting to be explored. Inside, you’ll encounter unique stalactites and stalagmites unlike any found in other caves around the world. These formations bear a striking resemblance to coral reefs—despite being far from the ocean—and this mesmerizing characteristic is why the cave is named Coral Cave.

Dam summit viewpoint

Ratchaprapa Dam not only boasts extraordinary natural beauty, but its vast freshwater lake offers a unique experience unlike any other. Above the dam, the viewpoint has become so breathtaking that it feels almost unreal—it's hard to believe such a place exists, and even harder to imagine a dam could be this stunning.

Every detail on the dam’s summit is meticulously arranged, with flowers, trees, lawns, and essential structures seamlessly integrated into the landscape. The panoramic view from the top stretches as far as the eye can see, revealing the vast expanse of water interwoven with forest-covered islands and towering limestone peaks. These remote and pristine landscapes evoke a sense of mystery and beauty, reminiscent of the awe-inspiring world of Jurassic Park.

Laguna Lake Resort

For this program, JC Tour has selected "The Lake Laguna", a floating resort located in a prime location. The accommodations are exceptional—beautiful, well-maintained, and impeccably clean. Each room comes with a private kayak, allowing guests to explore the surrounding area at their leisure. The tranquil waters in this corner of the lake are among the most beautiful, with no other tour boats passing by, ensuring complete peace and quiet throughout the day and night.

Happiness is guaranteed, of course—but the real surprise is just how far it exceeds expectations.
