Markta_B, Apr 2024
This trip was very good enjoyment and the guide Otto was great. He told us a lot of interesting facts and something about a local customs.
Top spots to see in Krabi
Tanita_H, Feb 2024
Emaral pool was lovely, hot springs were really cool too, the Tiger cave temple will kick your butt and challenge you mentally and physically, but it is an unforgettable experience, the host, I believe her name was Apple was super sweet and informative.
Colorful experience
Andreas_M, Feb 2024
The trip covered everything outlined in the agenda at a convenient pace. Otto was very helpful and even provided a short video summary.
Great experience, Great Guide
Daniel_C, Jan 2024
Otto was a Great Guide. He knows the national park very well and offered a Great experience. Tiger Cave is exhausting but worth the hike. :-)
Excellent day tour
Robin_H, Jan 2024
Very nice tour. One of the best I had in Thailand. We have arrived quite early at the first stop - Emerald Pool which was nice, as we avoided the crowds. Had a tasty lunch and enjoyed our time at the hot springs afterwards. Finished the day by challenging, but rewarding climb with amazing views.Our guide Tuk was very attetive, took us a lot of pictures and gave us a plenty of time at each stop.
wonderful experience
Gianluca_P, Jan 2024
Wonderful experience, I would totally recommend this tour! Otto was a great guide and even I was alone on this tour, he made me feel comfortable and put all the efforts to give me a good travel experience.
Amazing
Christophe_C, Jan 2024
We loved the visit. Our guide was very experienced and knew everything about the jungle, thanks to him we saw jungle crabs and other 3 leopard cats.
Great day
Todd_A, Dec 2023
Excellent day. Alphi (AB) was our guide and made the day fun! We saw beautiful ponds/pools/springs and climbed to the top of the mountain temple. Worth the effort.
Fantastic mix of culture and nature
ThienY_H, Dec 2023
My sister and I had a wonderful time with Otto and the driver going to the Emerald Pool (and seeing the Crystal and Blue Pools), hot springs, and the Tiger Cave Temple. There were only two other people in the group so we had plenty of room, plus they were super nice. Otto made sure we were comfortable and informed throughout the tour. He was very knowledgeable and open to any questions we had. The lunch spot after the Emerald Pool was great and the staff there is really nice. Make sure you get some ice cream from there after! The Emerald Pool was wonderful to dip in. So clear and pretty. It was cool seeing the two other pools. Photos don't do the hot springs justice, and it's awesome to go from them to the cool river. We left our belongings with Otto and he made sure to watch them, which allowed us to relax. He took photos and video of us throughout and even made a slideshow video, which was so lovely. The 1200+ steps up to the temple were definitely hard but rewarding. Make sure to cover your knees and shoulders, and would recommend sneakers. Thanks for a great time, Otto!

Sawadee kha, Thank you for this wonderful review of our Krabi day tour, it made our day! Glad to hear you had an enjoyable experience on tour with our guide Otto! We look forward to welcoming you again on one of our other tours in Thailand! The WanderSiam Team
Disappointed in missing out.
Shaun_V, Dec 2023
Unfortunately we were one minute late (literally) for our transfer from our hotel to the pier to catch the boat. Reason for the one star was for the refusal to credit us the amount paid (reason being according to the operator, that "cost paid for".). Odd thing is that we only paid for travel, and excluded the lunch and park entry fees, So there was no actual cost. They then could have offered to move our booking, but asked for an additional 500 baht per person for the move. Maybe I am wrong (and am for being initially 1 minute late), but think a rebooking could have been accommodated.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Dear Shaun, Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry that you were unable to join since you were (way) too late. Normally the start time for the Krabi tour is 8 AM, but because the hotel where you were staying, Centara Grand Beach Resort & Villas, is outside our pick up area (the hotel is on a secluded beach, only accessible by boat, not over land), we informed you that you had to take a (shuttle) boat from your hotel and be at the set meeting point not later than 8:15 AM. But just a bit before 8:30 AM you were not even in the boat yet (and the boat ride to the set meeting point takes 25-30 minutes). Our minivan, tour guide and other participants waited for you at the meeting point until 8:30 AM, but since you booked a group tour we had to start and could no longer wait for you. It’s very common in tourism industry that guests who are no-show will be charged 100% since there are already costs made. However, we tried to be flexible and offered you the possibility to move your reservation to December 12th for only a change fee of THB 500 per person, instead of having to make a whole new booking and be charged the full amount. Unfortunately you informed us the change fee was too high for you and you left us a 1-star review. Wishing you a great holiday in Thailand! Dave
Beautiful locations as long you are ready to walk. Worth it!
Jeff_P, Dec 2023
A lot of walking is involved w this trip. Ut the locations were definitely worth the walk. The pools and springs were beautiful. Hiking to the top of tiger temple was difficult. It is a lot of stairs and very steep. It was a challenge for myself that I am glad I accomplished! Amazing views up top.
Response from Host, Dec 2023
Sawadee kha Jeff_P, Thank you for your review of our Krabi tour. Glad to hear you enjoyed the trip. The hike to the top of the Tiger Cave Temple can be quite exhausting, great to hear you made it (and got rewarded with a stunning view!). The WanderSiam Team
Great family day trip! Thank you!
Federika_P, Nov 2023
We had a really nice day. Went with my husband, his mother and our 6 year old son (yes, he made it all the way to the top and back down at the Tiger Cave temple by himself!). Both Otto, the guide, and the driver were really nice. Otto was really experienced and knowledgable. We loved all parts of the tour and can recommend it to others! Just beware of the monkeys at the bottom of the Tiger Cave Temple and hold on to your backpacks! 🙂 My mother-in-law didn't and then she had to wrestle the monkey which got a hold of her backpack and immediately opened it and started tasting everything inside including the sunscreen! 😀
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Sawadee kha Federika, Thank you for joining our Krabi day tour and leaving such a great review afterwards. You can be proud on your 6-year old that he made it all the way to the top of the Tiger Cave Temple, we know the climb up in this hot weather can be quite exhausting! Hope the monkeys enjoyed their sunscreen lunch ;) The WanderSiam Team
A great day and great guide
Dylan_O, Nov 2023
A really fun day out visit the different water activities and then topped off with a big stairs climb for the tiger temple. We had a fantastic guide by the name of Otto, he couldn’t have done more for us and even sent us a video with pictures taken throughout the day.

Sawadee kha Dylan_O, We are delighted to hear you had an enjoyable experience exploring Krabi province with our guide Otto. Thank you for your review and hope to see you back! The WanderSiam Team
Fantastic day with first class guide Otto
Judith_A, Oct 2023
The whole day was fantastic, mainly due to my guide Otto who was informative and friendly. He went above and beyond, taking many photos which he compiled into a video of my day which was very special. We arrived early at Emerald and Blue Pools beating the rush of tourists and had the whole place to ourselves which was great for photos and a relaxing swim. Next stop was the hot springs waterfall. Very therapeutic and completed with a cool dip in the river. Tiger cave temple was our last stop. We'll worth the 1234 steps to the top for the spectacular views. I cannot recommend Otto and this tour highly enough. A fantastic day

Amazing tour company
Mary_N, Jun 2023
It was an honor and pleasure going on this tour with Siem Riep. Everything about the trip was amazing. Once I booked the tour, the company was automatically in touch with me. Answering all questions. Offering detailed itinerary and was clear about instructions. In the morning, I was called in advance and the driver arrived. Otto was the tour guide. Otto was amazing. He had a great personality, he was kind. He was informative and shared so much about his culture. He was really knowledgeable. We first went to the jungle to the emerald pool. Otto took all the picutres for us and gave a us a great tour of the area. When we were walking through the jungle, Otto showed up the different trees, birds and different insects. After we had a delicious lunch. We then went to the hotsprings. Otto took us around and gave a great tour and once again took a bunch of picutres for us. Afterwards, we went to the tiger temple. It was an intense hike, Otto was really patient and kept us in great spirits. The driver was smooth and gave us a relaxing drive the van was brand new, air conditioned and comfortable. Otto is an amazing guide. I give him 5/5 stars. Siem Riep is also a great company and well priced and seamless. Thanks a lot for an amazing day.

Khob khun kha, thank you for your review Mary_N. Glad to hear that you had an amazing day exploring Krabi province with our guide Otto!
Preis Leistung super, toller Guide und so schöne Erlebnisse
Jenny_B, Apr 2024
Wunderschöne Natur, die wir vor allem morgens am Emerald Pool für uns hatten. Unser Guide Bass war ein unglaublich guter Begleiter, der uns mit allen Informationen und Highlights versorgt hat. Wir waren nur drei Gäste, was den Ausflug sehr exklusiv gemacht hat. Klima, Trinkwasser in Glasflaschen, sehr neuer Van, sehr bequeme Sitze. Die längere Anfahrt von Aonang zum Emerald Pool war dadurch sehr entspannt, Bass hat uns immer vorab über Regel und Abläufe informiert. Wir durften unser Telefon im Auto laden und hatten zudem einen sicheren Fahrer und neben ihm eine nette Begleitung, die die Formalitäten geregelt hat. Der Emerald Pool war erfrischend, mit Taucherbrille sicher noch viel cooler. Der Blue Pool ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Unser Guide hat uns abseits noch einen Gutschein gigantischen Baum gezeigt, sowie Wildkatzen und tödlich giftige Schlangen, die im Baum hingen. Keine Sorge, alles sicher und Parkranget in Sichtnähe. Die heißen Quellen sind eine kurze Fahrt entfernt, abe auch ein extrem schönes Erlebnis. Heißes Wasser, weiche Steine, wie in einer heißen Badewanne. Danach fühlt man sich abgekühlt und sehr wohl. Bis auf die sehr knappe Zeit am Tiger Cave Tempel. Auf- und Abstieg bei 35°C steil bergauf über abenteuerlich steile Stiege und viel anderen Gästen, haben wir nichts auszusetzen und sind sehr dankbar für diese beeindruckenden Erfahrungen. Leider war dadurch keine Zeit mehr für Höhle mit den darin lebenden Mönchen und die angekündigte Aussicht hinten Westen am Fuße der Tempelanlage. Mittags waren wir noch in einem Restaurant essen, es gab günstiges Buffet all you can eat. (150THB inkl. Wasser, Toiletten etc). Eine Bar mit Thaispezialitäten und sehr coolem Barmann mit super Preise und tollen Thaitee und Smoothie Kreationen. Diese Tour war so lohnenswert, bei dem Preis wirklich traumhaft und für die Urlaubskasse nicht so schwer. Auch für Kinder super. Aufstieg zum Tempel allerdings nicht ganz ungefährlich durch die Höhe und die steilen Stufen. DANKE BASS !!

Demasiada gente en piscina esmeralda. El tour se tiene que hacer un poco rápido. Quizás quitar las termas para disfrutar más de blue pool
