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.

Emerald pool, hot springs and tiger cave temple
This was a great time. Otto was very friendly and shared lots of knowledge about the area. We started at the blue lagoon, emerald pool, and crystal pool. You can swim in the emerald pool but not the other two. Beautiful clear blue water. Next we went to the hot springs. Skip the concrete pools and go all the way back and jump in the small pools that form a waterfall into the river. Last was the tiger cave temple. It’s 1260 steep steps up the side of a cliff so bring water and be prepared to sweat. The climb is worth it though, beautiful views of Lrabi from the top. I highly recommend! Thanks Otto!

Mr. Otto for the win 🙂
Mr. Otto was a very kind man with humor and knows all the inns-and-outs of the culture + nature! We went to the Emerald Pool, hot springs and the temple. He was very supporting, took care of our clothes when we were swimming and gave us some water! We really had the best day because of him – i think everyone should go with him to get the full experience!

OTTO was amazing, friendly and even made a video for me and my mum of the tour !
I had the best time mainly because of my guide Otto he was lovely. My mum and I had the best time with him. We got to see all the beautiful places and he gave us so much information about the area and history. He took lots of photos and videos for us and even made a video ! Very kind. He also messaged what time he’ll pic us up and sent a photo of himself and the car so we’ll know who and what car to go for.
