This is the best and the only real jeep safari tour by 4×4 jeeps on Koh Phangan! The whole-day program is created for those who are staying on Phangan or on Koh Samui. For guests from Koh Samui, a transfer from the hotel to the pier and a ticket for the catamaran (Lomprayah or Seatran Discovery) to Koh Phangan is included. The first point to visit is a farm in the jungle with the breakfast in a pristinely beautiful rainforest. Here you can feed the animals – chickens, geese, rabbits and make photos of the Ban Tai and Tong Sala beach from the viewpoint.
Then you will visit the most interesting Buddhist temple Phu Khao Noi, which in Thai means ‘a small mountain temple’. It is one of the oldest Buddhist temples not only on Koh Phangan but in the whole province of Suratthani. It was founded in 1889 (almost 130 years ago!) by the monk Luang Po Vachira, one of the most respected clergymen of the island. Even after a hundred years, the temple and the place of personal monk meditation are considered to be a place of strength and fulfillment of desires. The ordinary people cannot access this place.
In September 1997, Phu Khao Noi Temple was registered by the Department of Fine Arts of Thailand as a historical site. An important historical artifact is a central pagoda, built in the style of an ancient Thai castle, with the texts from the Buddha’s teachings. There is an ensemble of eight buildings of various architectural types around the pagoda. In the old main hall, there is a statue of Buddha.
The Program A includes a visit to Mae Haad beach with the famous sandy line and the famous place for snorkeling – Koh Ma. If you select Program B, you will visit Than Sadet beach for relaxation and swimming. Here, there is the longest waterfall on Koh Phangan.
The next point of the program is a small elephant farm with three elephants, which can be fed with bananas.
Lunch will be served at the beach restaurant. You can enjoy two more beautiful beaches of Pangan – Thong Nai Pan Yai and Noi and if you want to swim in the pool.
After lunch, we will have a stop near the highest tree on Koh Phangan, Ton-Yang Na Yai. It is a tropical species of Dipterocarpus alatus.
The next part of the trip, the most vivid and unforgettable, is a jeep safari through the jungle! You can sit on the roof of a jeep (there are special seats with seat belts). The final destination is one of the most beautiful beaches on Koh Phangan, Lost Paradise beach. One can reach the beach either by 4×4 jeep or by boat. Here you will find turquoise water with a small reef near the shore, white sand, the atmosphere of total solitude (on the shore you can find a few bungalows and a restaurant with a hospitable hostess)! Enjoy snorkeling and have a drink of a fresh coconut juice decorated with red hibiscus flower.
Visiting the local market with a variety of Thai fruits and Thai-style shopping is the last point of the program.
Program C (from Koh Samui and Koh Phangan) is a little bit shorter the Program B (without visiting the Temple and the highest tree).
Program D (only from Koh Phangan) is the shortest tour without visiting a beach, Temple, elephant farm and the highest tree.
