Kayak Ko Lanta’s mangroves, spot monkeys and mudskippers, visit a fish farm, and enjoy lunch for $26 with hotel pickup.

“We had a brilliant time kayaking with Karim as our guide. Everything was very well organised and the whole experience was fun from the moment we set off. We saw crabs, walking fish, birds of prey, a snake, curlews and of course loads of monkeys including young ones. It was a joy watching Karim interacting with them. When the mangroves opened up into sea, the heaven’s also opened and we were all soaked but it was very special to see the magical way the rain bounces off the sea and mist and clouds gather around the mountains. Kayaking was followed by a lovely lunch which included fresh fruit and drinks.…”

Such an amazing person. I’m happy I had the pleasure to meet him. Between Kayaking, sight seeing, chilling with monkeys, climbing into a cave and eating homemade food, I couldn’t ask for better. Thank you and hope to see you again, very soon.”

“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.”
