The lake and scenery were beautiful, but the drive from Phuket was quite long. Still glad we went, but be ready for a full day.

If you want to get away from the busy tourist spots, go here. The jungle and lake are amazing. Felt so calm and refreshing.

This was one of the most peaceful days of my trip. We just sat back and took in the beauty. Loved it. Totally recommended even though it's a bit far to reach. We found this solution relaxing and without the hassle of getting our own taxi and arranging everything. Special thanks to the wonderful driver Mr Tung.

Wow, just wow. I can’t believe this place exists. We had the best guide and the best weather. Totally worth waking up early.
