Highlights
This is a kayaking tour to Phang Nga like none other. You'll still get to kayak through the marine limestone karst islands that define Phang Nga's awe-inspiring backdrop. But as darkness falls, you'll paddle through tunnels and lagoons with an entirely new view of Phang Nga. Watch as fireflies flash on the cliff side and the sea waves glow from phosphorescence. Enjoy a spiritual ceremony under the stars with homemade kratongs (Thai ceremonial floats) before tucking in to a buffet dinner onboard a boat back to shore. It's little wonder how this magical experience made it to National Geographic's "World's Top 50 Adventures."
