Fun journey thru the mangroves
Sean_M, Apr 2024
The guide was super nice and we paddled all thru the mangroves, saw lots of cute mudskippers, crabs, sea eagles, tons of monkeys, they even jumped on our kayaks! It is really hot so bring water and a hat. Also a large water monitor lizard and then enjoyed a snack at a fish farm with kind family. I also suggest stopping by one of the stands and buying jewelry it's lovely and cheaply priced. Also a refreshing green tea slushy from the roadside right near the entrance!
Fun, refreshing tour!

What a way to start your day! We did the morning tour and enjoyed leisurely kayaking through the mangroves watching monkeys in the jungle as well as hanging out on our kayak! Highly recommend.
Great
Sergio_P, Mar 2024
It was an authentic experience. Though it was pretty sporty and hot. We could see monkeys and we fed them. Fresh Fruit at the end, as always in this kind of activities it is a pleasure of life. You have to be 2 people, because the kayak it is for 2. In my case the son’s guide drove with me. I think he could have helped me a little bit more , lol, But overall he did great and the activity it was fantastic.
Amazing mangrove kayaking with monkeys!

Mangrove Kajak tour
Stephan_S, Jan 2024
It was a nice trip through dense mangrove forests, certainly a unique sight, monkeys were promised and delivered, they climbed into the boats, not the most plesant or modern Kajaks but good enough, I would recommend this trip
Not what I was expecting
AnnaMaria_L, Jan 2024
This trip info promised english speaking guide and lifejackets, I got none. Problem was that nobody spoke english there. I got private ”tour” with this young boy who didn’t speak english at all. He was nice and kind even though we didn’t have mutual language. But I wouldn’t pay for this again.
Non-kayaking monkey trip
Glenn_O, Dec 2023
Booked kayaking with kids as well, but everyone went on a long-tail boat. Expected one big boat for the kids and kayaks for the rest. Now we’re basically just went on a long tail boat trip through the mangrove. Was nice but not super special. Wanted to avoid having a monkey on the boat because of scared kids and and adults, but one still came on. All went well but we stepped in poop on the boat afterwards
Mangrove kayaking
Michelle_P, Nov 2023
Was a great outing, they were very helpful and took the time to show us interesting wildlife. The snack after the tour was a nice touch needed it after the kayaking Picked us on time and were very friendly
Beautiful place to kayak but could be improved if a bit of information on the environment was provided.
Sheena_M, Apr 2023
This was a great opportunity to kayak in the mangroves and we loved it. The pick up and transfer were all smooth and fruit and water provided afterwards were much appreciated. However our guide was a young boy who did not speak English and so we didn’t learn anything about the mangroves which we had hoped to.
Great adventure in the mangroves!
astrid_v, Mar 2023
At first I thought: where did we arrive at? Everything is old and not so pleasant. But on the kayak it was marvelous. We had 2 guides, very young and they spoke not so good english, but that was no problem. They were great! Also when the apes swimmed to our kayak end were all over us!
A perfect morning
Peggy_W, Dec 2022
Even tho our guide didn’t speak much English he was able to convey to us the wonders of the mangroves. We saw eagles, amphibious fish,monkeys and even 2 blue dolphins. It was a perfect morning adventure.
Explore the mangroves and have monkeys sitting in your boat!
Maya_S, Aug 2022
Being quiet in the water with our excellent guide, paddles dipping and splashing. Seeing mudskippers and many crabs and birds. Learning about the lifecycle of mangroves. Being hailed for a light by a fisherman. And of course having monkeys sitting in our boats taking fruit from our hands, with babies as well! Awesome half day, do this trip you won’t regret it. Needs some physical fitness and stamina
Response from Host, Aug 2022
Dear Maya thank you so much for your review.The team was very impressed to serve you.
Visite au cœur de koh lanta.
Philippe_L, Feb 2024
Le calme et la beauté de l'environnement. La maman singe qui rejoint le kayak à la nage est surprenante. La visite a été écourté par coefficient de marée.
A faire absolument en kayak
Rachel_U, Feb 2024
Si vous n avez pas peur de pagayer et de monter dans un kayak, je vous recommande vivement de choisir ce mode à la place du longtail. Cela permet de rentrer dans les bras étroits de la mangrove et voir vraiment ce que c'est. Avec le longtail on passe complètement à côté de la mangrove car il est obligé de rester dans les axes larges de la mangrove (larges comme un fleuve), avec en prime le bruit du moteur. Rencontre avec des charmantes femelles singes. Excursion à faire.

Excursion au top, nous somme tombé sur un guide hyper sympas qui nous a fait navigué en kayak au travers de la mangrove. Nous avons pu apercevoir des serpants et un singe a fait une partie du voyage sur notre kayak 😄
Belle expérience
Sarah_D, Aug 2023
Belle expérience, kayak en pleine nature . Le guide a été super sympa. Nous avons pû observer les différentes espèces de très près. Le guide nous a même fait monter un singe à bord de notre kayak et nous avons pû le nourrir. Super expérience.
Espectacular
David_R, Aug 2023
Estuvimos solos, fue como una actividad privada. El guía muy agradable y atento, preoxupandose por nosotros y haciendo todo lo posible para nuestra mejor experiencia. super divertido con los monos que se suben al barco. Al final te dan fruta y agua. Genial
Schönes Erlebnis
Petra_S, Dec 2022
Wir haben diese dreistündige Tour online gebucht und direkt über Paypal bezahlt. Abholung hat super geklappt. Dort angekommen wurde unser Kajak sofort hergerichtet und wir konnten auch schon einsteigen. Wir hatten noch nie zuvor Mangrovenwälder gesehen und man muss wissen, dass es sehr sumpfig ist und so eben auch riecht :-) wir haben Schlammspringer, Adler und eine Schlange gesehen. Unser Highlight war die Affenmama, die mit ihrem Baby zu uns rüber schwamm und auf das Boot kletterte. Unser Guide hatte Futter eingepackt und wir durften auch etwas geben. Danach haben wir Affenmama und -Baby mit dem Boot wieder zu den Mangroven zurück gebracht. Alles in allem ein tolles Erlebnis. Sollte man mal gesehen haben.
mangroves ou marequages
audreyvilleneuve06, Feb 2020
Sympa mais sans plus une balade de 2h en bateau mais le personnel est très sympa on a vite fait le tour les paysages sont toujours les mêmes donc c'est un peu redondant et je pense que c'est à faire malgré tout vu le prix. On s'arrête à plusieurs reprises pour donner de la pastèque à des petits singes qui vivent sur les berges
Très sympa
Frdric_M, Nov 2019
Nous avons été récupéré à notre hôtel par une personne très agréable. Le guide était souriant et astucieux avec les singes. Très bon moment.
