Khao Sok tour, two days, Thailand
This vacation is operated by a company based in the vacation destination and they will be able to provide expert local knowledge. They will be able to tailor make your vacation to suit your requirements not only concerning the dates of travel but also typically the standard of accommodation, and thus price. It is rare for local operators to be able to help with the booking of your flights.
How this vacation makes a difference
Environment
Our pre-trip document given to travelers outlines ways to reduce the negative impact on the environment, including reducing water usage and minimising damage to flora and fauna. Travelers have the opportunity to meet the park rangers who take care of the area and our guides inform travelers about the impact of poaching of wildlife and flora within the park, and how the park rangers attempt to minimise this type of activity.
As all our trips visit Khao Sok National Park or Chieow Laan Lake, our clients have a first-hand opportunity to see nature and wildlife at its best. We encourage them to leave the rainforest as they found it, including carrying all rubbish out if on a trek and not trying to offer food to any wildlife encountered or leaving food behind in the jungle when they leave. This helps preserve the rainforest and it’s flora and fauna in all their splendour and glory.
Community
In an endeavour to give something back to the communities we operate in, we attempt at all times to use the services of local guides and accommodation providers. We also purchase necessary goods and food from local businesses whenever possible and encourage our clients to do the same when traveling in Thailand. By choosing the small, local shop or restaurant over the larger ‘chain’ operations, you’ll help to keep money in the local community, create employment for local people and create a positive, reciprocal feeling between local communities and the travelers who visit them.
We do not offer large group travel. This provides for more intimate and direct interaction between the traveler and the local guides and people in the communities we visit and avoids ‘over-running’ the destinations we visit.
