Featured Experience


If you choose to visit the elephant sanctuary, this will undoubtedly be one of the most special moments of the day. Here, you will get to see these animals up close in a respectful environment, learn about their care and share a very intimate and authentic moment with them at one of the island's smaller, more genuine sanctuaries.

“A real encounter with nature — interact with respect and caution.”

Itinerary

Morning pick-up from your accommodation/port/airport

  • Our experienced driver will pick you up at your hotel or wherever you indicate. The pick-up time is flexible, although an early start is recommended. Our driver speaks very good English, but if you need it, we will provide all the information about each place you visit in Spanish.

Vehicle: Toyota Fortuner 4x4

  • SUV with up to 7 seats, limited to just 4 passengers for greater comfort, although 1 or 2 additional passengers can be added at the same price.

Route

  • The itinerary is 100% flexible and will be planned personally according to your preferences.

What can I see on this tour?

  • During the tour, we will drive around the island and visit some of Koh Samui's most relevant spots, such as the Big Buddha and Plai Laem temples. Obviously, we will not have time to see everything in 6–8 hours, but depending on the type of tour you choose, you can also visit beaches, spectacular viewpoints, curious places, forgotten gems hidden in the jungle and the occasional place that perhaps should not be there. Or, if you have not had time to see elephants, we can make a brief stop at a small ethical sanctuary. The idea is to show you the island as we know it, in a dynamic and immersive way.

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

  • The transport will be comfortable and high-quality, but depending on the itinerary, some places may take you outside your comfort zone.

Can I choose what I want to see and what I don't?

  • This tour is 100% customisable and can be adapted to both your physical condition and your preferences. We can skip temples and add beaches, visit elephants, explore the jungle, adapt the experience to a more family-friendly plan with children, visit places that are ideal for creating content and filming with a drone...
