Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea)

Nestled within the lush Kiriwong Valley, the Tiger Cave Temple is not only a sacred Buddhist site but also a place of natural and historical significance. The temple complex is surrounded by ancient rainforest, limestone caves, and towering mountains. Visitors can explore caves like Tum Khon Than, Tum Lod, Tum Chang Kaeo, and Tum Luk, where ancient artifacts have been discovered.

Climb the 1,260 steps to the summit where a majestic golden Buddha awaits, offering a panoramic view of Krabi city and the surrounding landscape. It’s a spiritual and physical journey not to be missed.

10:00 AM – Depart to Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot)

Located in the Khao Pra-Bang Khram Wildlife Sanctuary, the Emerald Pool is famous for its stunning emerald-green waters, which originate from warm underground springs rich in calcium carbonate. The pool is about 20–25 meters wide and 1–2 meters deep — perfect for a refreshing swim.

There are two walking paths to the pool:

• Short route: 800 meters
• Recommended route: 1.4 kilometers through beautiful forest with labeled trees and rich plant life

From the Emerald Pool, you can walk an additional 600 meters to discover the Blue Pool (Sa Nam Phut) — the vibrant source of the Emerald Pool. This naturally bubbling, indigo-blue spring is both mysterious and mesmerizing.

Lunch Tip:

There are several local restaurants located just outside the park where you can enjoy a relaxing lunch (not included in the tour).

02:00 PM – Visit Hot Spring Waterfall

Your next stop is the Krabi Hot Springs, a natural spa experience in the heart of the jungle. Warm mineral water (35–40°C) flows through naturally carved stone basins, forming relaxing hot tubs amidst tropical forest surroundings.

These springs are believed to have therapeutic properties and are the perfect place to unwind. The warm pools cascade down into a cool stream below — ideal for a refreshing dip after your soak.

03:00 PM – Return to Hotel

After a rejuvenating day, relax in the van as we drive you back to your hotel.

05:00 PM – End of Trip

Arrive safely back at your hotel with wonderful memories of Krabi’s natural wonders.
