Amazing Day Out
Really good experience, well worth the money Mook our guide was lovely and ensured we were looked after during the excursion. Canoing was amazing a gentle amble through the little amazon river lots of wildlife and soectacular views. The off road section was spectacular, with frequent stops to look at flora and fauna. The restaurant was in the middle of a fish lagoon and food was delicious. We didnt realise there was a temple visit and werent prepared as women need to ensure they are wearing trousers and shoulders, fortunately one of the other guests lianed my wife a towel so we could enjoy the experience in full. All in all a great trip, its a long day and rather tiring as it was 35 degrees celcius all day!! Well done team 😊

Amazing day out!
We both had a fantastic experience, well worth the money all staff were great. Saw lots of wildlife & some beautiful scenery, plenty of drinks supplied throughout the day coke/water lunch is also included. We also liked that it wasn't very busy at the locations like many other tourist places.

Great day out (be prepared to be out for about 8 hours). The Thai tour guides are all wonderful, friendly helpful and polite. You'll be picked up at your hotel and get straight into your open top jeep. Then you'll be on your way off to the rain forest. The rain forest road is a bumpy, rocky ride with steep ravines on one side of the road. You do get bumped around quite a lot but you have a seat belt to wear. (If you have neck or back problems, this is not for you). At the top of the road you'll be getting off the jeep and venturing down a steep path towards the waterfall. There are fixed ropes and walking sticks to help you balance and get down. Be sure to wear a good pair of trainers for this part because the descent and ascent are steep and you can easily trip or fall. Anyone with knee, hip or back issues best avoid this. You will need to be reasonably fit to get down and then back up. If you are uncomfortable with this, stay in the jeep. We did not see much wildlife in the rain forest which was disappointing. We then drove lunch which was in a very lovely location and finally went canoeing in the mangrove. Very quiet and relaxing canoe journey where we saw families of monkeys. The drive back to Khao Lak is around 40 mins. An enjoyable day out but I'd recommend good trainers and advise people with joint problems to avoid it.

Off Road Safari Khao Lak: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Khao Lak.
How much does Off Road Safari Khao Lak cost?
+
Prices start at $97 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Khao Lak usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Off Road Safari Khao Lak take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Khao Lak is not rushed.
Is Off Road Safari Khao Lak worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 42 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Khao Lak, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Off Road Safari Khao Lak?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Off Road Safari Khao Lak suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Off Road Safari Khao Lak?
+
Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Khao Lak can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Khao Lak and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Off Road Safari Khao Lak start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Khao Lak within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Khao Lak?
+
On Outty we rank every Khao Lak experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Thai Cooking Class in Khao Lak by Amazon Prime Series Chef, Riverside Thai Cooking Half Day Class, Riverside Thai Cooking Class in Khao Lak with Market Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Khao Lak?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Khao Lak?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off (hotels in Khao Lak area only); Local guide; Bottled water and softdrinks; National Park fees; and Small-group tour with max. 8 person. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

What languages is Off Road Safari Khao Lak offered in?
+
