During this tour you'll visit the Emerald Pool and Blue Lagoon, the Hot Springs and the Tiger Cave Temple.
The Emerald Pool, also called ‘Sa Morakot’ is a unique natural pond with a visually limpid blue color and wonderfully warm waters, making it a stunning spot for swimming.
Nearby the Emerald Pool you'll find the Blue Lagoon, a beautiful pool with deep aquamarine-blue water. Don’t be tempted to take a dip in the blue water, because unlike in the Emerald Pool you can’t swim here!
Namtok Ron is located in a shady green forest area with numerous hot springs. The hot springs and cool streams converge on a slope to form lovely cascades of warm water. The water comes from volcanic chambers deep underground. Of course you’ll have time to relax in one of the many natural hollows in the creek.
Set in a beautiful forest, Wat Tham Suea (Tiger Cave Temple) is one of the highlights in Krabi, for in addition to being a place of worship it is a famous meditation centre, and acts as a retreat for Buddhist monks and nuns.
You need to climb 1260 stairs to the top, so a degree of physical fitness is required. Once you make it to the top, you are rewarded with stunning views of the surrounding countryside with all the limestone cliffs and beautiful lush rain forest. If you think the climb to the top might be too tough for you, you can also visit the temple on ground level.

Amazing tour
It was an amazing tour! The blue pool and tiger cave temple are some of the most beautiful places I’ve seen in Thailand. Otto was a great guide, he was very knowledgeable on the area and local nature. Also he was excellent at knowing when to go to the busiest places before they are too packed and getting pictures for you!

Great day in krabi!
Our tour guide otto was a pleasure! He accommodated all of our needs no problem and took content of us throughout the tour and compiled a video at the end to have as a souvenir. There was an added fee of 600 baht to enter the parks which we weren’t aware about, but overall would recommend.

Excellent
This is a fun day trip from Krabi. Otto was my guide for the day. He is an excellent host, he knows the area very well and can answer all of your questions. The temple hike up is strenuous, remember to take water with you. But the views are stunning and totally worth the climb.
The emerald pool is a bit overcrowded but the national park itself is very peaceful and nice.

Very nice experience with Otto
Our guide Otto knew everything about the jungle. Thanks to him we saw the jungle crab, 3 baby leopard cats and of course all the attractions. It was indeed a wonderful experience. He also took photos and made a video footage to share. Well organised and full of discoveries. Thank you for the great experience

Beautiful and well planned.
Otto helped us have a great time at all of our locations. We had a good amount of time at each spot. I just think that it might be nice to have climbing to the top of Tiger cave temple as the first part of the trip, so it’s cool in the morning and you can relax after. Otherwise everything was amazing!
