Starting from Krabi
The best of the mainland around Krabi: ethical sanctuaries, hot springs and temples.
Swim in turquoise Emerald Pool at Thung Teao National Park, then relax in natural hot springs (35-40°C). Private driver to avoid crowds. Full-day nature immersion.
Meeting with elephants rescued from the circus industry and backpacking, in a Thai family sanctuary. No riding on the back — only feeding, mud bathing and river bathing.
Buddhist temple on top of a 280 m hill, accessible by 1,237 steps. Historic tiger footprints, large Buddha statue on top, panoramic view of Krabi. Free entry, donations appreciated.
