    Very informative

    The 3 hour journey from Bangkok to Khao Yai was broken up with fantastic stories about Thailand and it’s animal life. The waterfall was in full flight and the views from the lookouts spectacular. The highlight being the 4.2km guided walk through the forest. The guide pointing out many things and providing information on each of them, including plants, insects, animals and birds. We had Peter as a guide and had a great day.

    Response from the operator: Dear Skenner, Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a nice review. We are glad that you loved our tour, our dedicated team will be pleased to learn of your high praise. Next time you or your friends want to visit us, please give us a call in advance and we will provide you with the best possible deals and options that you will not find online. Thank you, once again, for your kind words. Nick

    Great day out with so much included

    Khao yai national park tour from Bangkok is a day back to the nature, We had a great day and its a full day and includes so much for your money. We loved the the traditional Thai transport and then the easy trek to the Heaw Narok Waterfall. The guide is great. Good English. Very helpful. Really wants you to have a great experience. Finally, there is a stop at an organic dairy farm for ice cream. I highly recommend this experience while you are in Bangkok

    Response from the operator: Dear Jimmy, We do thank you for reviewing our full day Khai National Park tour. We are happy to read you had a great day out here and for your positive comments. Regards, Nick

    Day trip with waterfall and hiking

    Overall had fun but keep in mind it takes 3.5 hours to. We saw the waterfall (from The Beach) then back in the van. Met up with our Thai jungle tour guide who lead us on a 3km hike (2-3 hrs). Unfortunately we only saw a bird and monkey from a distance. Heard some elephants but never saw them. The trees and plants were pretty cool however. My husband was hoping to see some cool insects but oddly didn’t see any. It was an enjoyable hike and our group was really nice. After the hike we went to the visitors centre for a Thai lunch which was good and the driver gave us some time to go buy a few souvenirs after from the centre. The hard part is another 3 hour drive back into the city. We got out at the first pit stop and walked the rest of the way to our hotel to avoid sitting in traffic. If the duration of the travel back and forth for 6.5 hours in total does not bother you then go for it. We had fun but might have done it differently in hindsight (stayed over 1 night to get more out of it or rented our own car if possible)

    Response from the operator: Dear 274diw, I do regret if you did not realise the location of Khao Yai National Park when you made the booking. (You are correct, it is not in Bangkok so takes time to get there and back). We are glad to know that you did, for the most part, enjoy the experience. Obviously, some days wild elephants and other animals are seen and some days not, but it was unfortunate that the day you went was one of the quiet days. Thanks for understanding that this is out of I Asis’s control. Kind regards, Christopher Product Manager - Tours & Activities Online I Asia Group

    UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bangkok.

    How much does UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls cost?

    +

    Prices start at $3000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bangkok usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls take?

    +

    Plan for about 12 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 Bangkok is not rushed.

    Is UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bangkok, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls?

    +

    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 UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls?

    +

    Around 1 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 Bangkok 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 Bangkok and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does UNESCO Khao Yai National Park Adventure: Hiking & Waterfalls 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 Bangkok 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 Bangkok?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Bangkok experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Bangkok Backstreets Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Old Siam Bangkok Food Tour with 15+ Tastings, Tingly Thai Cooking Class with Morning 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 Bangkok?

    +

    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 Bangkok?

    +

    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.
