Review Body: Al principio nos pareció una excursión un poco cara comparada con el resto de zonas de Tailandia, pero nos lo habían recomendado y confiamos en que valdría la pena. Sin lugar a dudas superó expectativas. Para mi, es el sitio más bonito de toda Tailandia. El paisaje, la tranquilidad y que estábamos prácticamente solos, hacia del lugar un sitio mágico. La excursión en la selva donde pudimos ver monos, lagartos, arañas y muchos sonidos que te ponían los pelos de punta. La comida en el restaurante flotante, una de las mejores que probamos con unas vistas inigualables. Y después el paseo en kayak a nuestro aire sin presión de horarios, tranquilos y disfrutando de cada momento, fue una experiencia unica.
Queremos agradecer a Kai, Liam y sobretodo a M, nuestro guía, toda la atencion recibida, atentos a todo, ofreciendo comida y bebida en cada momento para que no nos faltará de nada y destacar la experiencia y simpatía de M quien nos enseño todos los secretos de la jungla y un montón de datos interesantes sobre insectos, plantas, pájaros, sonidos, etc, un auténtico explorador. Muchas gracias por esta experiencia tan maravillosa que pudimos disfrutar con nuestros hijos de 10 y 8 años. Nos hubiera encantado quedarnos a dormir al menos una noche para disfrutar más tiempo de todas esas sensaciones que te aporta Khao Sok Lake. Inigualable y recomendadisimo!!

Review Body: We had the most fantastic time with Leam.
We were travelling with our kids who are 9 and 10 meaning we needed to be mindful of keeping everyone entertained. Leam did a great job from start to finish and having a private guide and boat meant that we could change the plan as we went along. We had three weeks in Thailand including all sorts of adventures and can honestly say that the night in hammocks with Leam in Khao Sok was the most memorable.
Leam if you read this we have already passed your details to a few people. Best of luck and thanks again for a great trip!

Review Body: We did a private trip with Leam and we loved it. We saw wildlife, learned about plants and local life. He is an amazing guide and provide everything you need during your trip ( including binoculars and good camera lens for animals). He spent time with us talking about his culture and about Thailand. He is fascinating! The journey can be adapt to your needs and wishes. We highly recommend it as it was one of the best part of our travel!

Review Body: We had an amazing day at Khao Sok with Leam. The national park is just magnificent but what made the day great was the kindness of Leam and all the things he taught us during the day about the jungle, Thailand, etc. Because it is a private tour, you can go to the main spot (with the 3 rocks) when there are no tourists which is priceless. Anyway, I recommend the tour and Leam 100% !

Review Body: Our tour with Leam to the Coral Cave at Cheow Lan Lake was indeed the highlight of our stay at Khao Sok. To get there, we went on a long-tailed boat, did a 45 min easy hike one way & a short bamboo raft ride. The cave is interesting. We also enjoyed the tour around the beautiful lake. To top it all, we were fortunate to see an elephant up close which is normally a rare sight!

Review Body: Our day with Leam was a highlight of our vacation. Perfectly planned, we were able to enjoy the beauty and sounds of nature without other people. Leam’s connection to the area allows for an insightful and genuine tour with a deep respect for nature and the environment. We couldn’t have asked for a better day!

Review Body: The guide was great! Very knowledgeable and kind. Our day turned out to be a very rainy day, but they made us comfortable and we still saw an elephant, eagles and gibbons.
