Elephant Trekking

Explore the jungles of Ko Samui in a way you may never have even thought of before; on the back of an elephant! As Thailand’s national animal, the mighty elephant is a symbol of royalty and strength and a ride on an elephant’s back is a true Thailand experience.

Trek through thick jungle, alongside and through rivers and past exciting and unforgettable sights. Visit Samui’s most famous waterfall and take a refreshing dip before returning to the real world.

Coconut Plantation and Monkey Show

On Samui, the monkey is a man’s best friend. See them work together in harvesting the many coconut trees that line that island’s beaches. The Monkey Theatre offers shows that display the dexterous skills of the monkeys and are entertaining to say the least.

Chaweng Beach

Situated on the east coast of the island, Chaweng Beach is without a doubt one of the island’s best natural treasures. Spanning four majestic miles, this beach is characterized by its pure white sand and crystal clear waters and is perfect for a day of relaxation.
