Very relaxing boat trip...

Published on Jan, 2025

Very relaxing boat trip through the mangroves, with a great guide who showed us the wildlife along the river banks. Saw sea eagles as well and monkeys, including one who swam out to our boat for some food. The guide kept checking we were all OK with everything, stopping when we wanted to take photos. Then we had a short ride to Lamta town. Very different to the west side of the island, with traditional buildings. Our guide spoke excellent English, probably one of the best we have come across in Thailand and he told us about the history of the island. We drove up to Viewpoint Restaurant for lunch. A lovely trip!

Great relaxing day in Koh Lanta!

Published on Dec, 2023

We had a wonderful time - the mangrove tour was very peaceful and well led by the guide, who showed us different monkeys and birds and took us to a fantastic local restaurant (best food we had in koh lanta). Very well organised - the transport arrived at the hotel on time and we finished off with coconuts and a fantastic view. Would thoroughly recommend!

Fantastic excursion when feeling lazy

Published on Dec, 2023

This trip is ideal if you don't feel like active kayaking but want to enjoy the beautiful mangroove with a motorboat. The highlight are the sweet monkeys that come to watch on board. Furthermore, a visit to Old Town is fun because of the more unique souvenirs. And the lunch spot with a view was definitely worth a visit. Because this excursion is strangely unpopular there are probably no other participants and it can be experienced as a private excursion

Get to know Koh Lanta - trust the process

Published on Mar, 2023

This is a trip best done early in your visit to Koh Lanta. The trip shows off the entire island and will leave you with a list of places to revisit during your trip. I will say this for the tour - you have to trust the process. Booking it from here on Viator, there isn't a lot of itinerary information, so we weren't sure what to expect. We were taken from our hotel to a cute fishing village that requires an entrance fee of 20baht per person. From there, we went on a longtail boat through the mangroves, met a monkey, learned about the forest and saw a bunch of wildlife. At this point, I assumed the boat was headed to Old Town, but instead we went back to the fishing village and met up with our tour guide and her truck! She drove us all over the island, took us to a beautiful lunch at a cliffside restaurant and shopping in Old Town. Really, an amazing experience and we learned so much about the island.

It was a great tour around the island!!

Published on Mar, 2020

We saw the important places and we got a lot of information from our guide. It was enough time to enjoy. Tour is a must-have during a stay in Koh Lanta. Many thanks to our great driver and our great guide.
