This was an amazing experience. The peacefulness of floating in the kayaks and experiencing this beautiful space. was one of the top highlights of our trip. The guides were so fun and informative. Making the Loy Krathong and seeing the planktin in the evening is something you do not want to miss. Simply beautiful. Words do not do the experience justice. This is an all day tour but one you Do Not want to miss. This is a late post from (July 2019) But I had to share. BE SURE TO BOOK THIS TRIP!

We stayed at the 500 Rai property BUT there are others on this massive dam. it took us over an hour to get form the port near the dam wall to get to the resort. But the whole park is just spectacular no wonder they call it the Guilin of Thailand and everyone we met had only just been told about this - DONT tell everyone as this is a magical piece of Thailand that is unspoilt and beautiful. We where here in April and the water was so warm.

Very nice experience and the tour guide was friendly and cheerful.
