The Avatar world: jungle, elephants, rafts and hot springs
Bamboo rafting, ATV trails, a waterfall, sunset on the beach and real thermal springs
A long day that keeps changing shape. It opens gently — a café built around a pond of giant water lilies, a white temple — then gets physical: bathing an elephant, a bamboo raft drifting through the jungle, ATV trails with bridges and mud. The waterfall cools everyone down, and the day ends at the only real thermal springs in Phang Nga province, on the beach at Natai, with hot pools, a cold pool and the sun going down over the sea.

Questions we get asked
Do I have to drive an ATV?
No. The ATV section is one stop among many, and you can sit it out at the base while the rest of the group rides.
Are the hot springs really natural?
Yes — these are the thermal springs of Phang Nga province, on the coast at Natai beach, with hot pools around 40°C and a cold pool to alternate with.
Is twelve hours too long for children?
The day is long but it changes constantly, and the water stops — the elephant, the waterfall, the pools — break it up. For very small children the sunrise trips are harder than this one.
Is an English-speaking guide available on this tour?
Yes, the tour includes an English-speaking guide.
