Secret Lake - a tour to Khao Sok National Park and Cheow Lan Lake with an overnight stay on the lake

Good afternoon! I'd like to leave a review of the Treasure Island team who worked with us: Dmitry, our tour organizer, and Esmira and Ksenia, our tour guides. We contacted Dmitry on the second day of our arrival, and he planned a well-balanced tour based on our wishes. We ended up visiting Cheow Lan Lake for two days, the islands without waves, Siam Niramit, and a bonus sightseeing tour with shopping. In short, we enjoyed everything listed above; it was well-planned, well-filled, and everything left a lasting impression. We had a wonderful time and felt completely relaxed after returning from the tours. A special thank you to our guides, Mira and Ksenia. Mira was with us on the sightseeing tour and in a parallel group on Cheow Lan Lake. She gave us a wealth of information about Thai life and the country, and she has a wonderful sense of humor. We spent a great deal of time with Ksenia; we spent two days with her on a tour of the lake and the islands without waves. She immediately brought the group together and set the mood for conversation. We learned a ton about Thailand from her during the tour, even though this wasn't our first visit. She shared a lot of interesting facts about everyday life, and she was very informative. She knows how to explain everything easily and engagingly. 😊 The time flew by while we were traveling! Everything was amazing! Thank you so much!!!😊

Good afternoon! Today we went on a two-day excursion to Cheow Lan Lake. We had a very warm guide, Ksenia. To say we were happy is an understatement – ​​we were absolutely thrilled! Firstly, Ksenia is the best guide we've ever met in Thailand. She shared so many new and interesting things about the country that the trip to the locations was stress-free. She gave us lots of helpful advice, recommendations, and so on. We're so grateful for that. Secondly, Cheow Lan Lake is incredibly beautiful; it's a must-see for EVERY tourist visiting Thailand. A two-day excursion is recommended to fully enjoy the lake's natural beauty.

The excursion was very interesting, Lake Cheow Lan will remain in your heart forever, the incredible beauty of the sunrise on the lake, observed right from the house standing on the water, it was a plus of the vibe) A special huge thank you to Ksenia, our guide, for a very interesting program, she has answers to all our questions, we really enjoyed it, thank you!

An incredible tour. The sights were truly beautiful, the Thai nature truly captivating. The lake itself is probably one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. I'd especially like to thank our guide, Ksenia, who was so passionate about us and shared so many stories not only about each of the tour's locations but also about life in Thailand and the local mentality. Thank you ❤️

We went with guide Ksenia on the Secret Lake tour on March 4, 2026, and were absolutely blown away! The lake and cliffs are incredibly beautiful; it feels like you're in Avatar. The lake houses where we stayed overnight were beautiful, with direct access to the lake from our room, where you can swim and watch the sunrise. On the first day, we visited two temples and a waterfall (but we could have skipped that part 😆), then arrived at the pier and took a traditional boat ride across the lake to the houses. At 5 a.m., we went on a safari, but we didn't see any elephants. We rode around the lake and watched the sunset—it was all very beautiful. Dinner and rest followed in the evening. On the second day, we woke up early to watch the sunrise. At 7 a.m., we went on a nearby boat to look for elephants, but we didn't see any. We watched monkeys instead. Then we had breakfast and headed back to the pier. Next, we went rafting through the jungle - it was fun, very interesting, and colorful. Then we stopped at the Samit Nangshe lookout point and sat in a cafe with a beautiful view. 😍 Our guide, Ksenia, told us a lot: about Thailand, traditions, Buddhism, food, etc. Our group was small, and everything went very well. The food was also delicious, traditional Thai food and fish.

The excursion was amazing, very eventful. The beauty all around was incredible. Thanks to Ksyusha, she entertained us as much as she could. I would like to commend the company's high level of organization and support. I went on two excursions. All my requests were taken into account and fulfilled, and they were always in touch. Perhaps for your information and to help you make the right purchases at 7/11, I should mention that the houses on the water are without electricity until 6 PM and after 6 AM. There is no refrigerator or dental kits. Be sure to wake up in the morning and watch the sunrise – it's really cool. Also, for your information, bring sun hats or something to cover yourself with, and water, as the sun is very hot. Sandals can get wet – also, plan your outfit wisely. Two days flew by in a flash. Thank you so much 🙏

What a fantastic excursion!!! The nature was incredible. We had a great group, and most importantly, our guide, Petr. He's a total know-it-all! He's a pleasure to listen to and will answer any question. I think he's the best guide I've ever taken! The lake is beautiful, we loved the hotel's location on the water, and the morning excursion to see and hear the local flora and fauna was unforgettable. We also really enjoyed all the other locations. The only thing I'd change is the Phang Nga viewpoint; it's honestly not a great place. Otherwise, thank you so much!!!! We were very satisfied!!!

Super excursion!!!

I want to share my impressions of the "Secret Lake" excursion—it was a true journey into a fairytale. If you want to feel completely at one with nature, this is the place to go. The road to our main destination was already eventful: along the way, we stopped at two beautiful and very tranquil temples—one with a huge reclining Buddha and the Temple of Rama X. We also came across a cozy, almost secluded spot with a waterfall. It was so quiet and refreshing that I didn't want to leave; I just wanted to listen to the water and the birds. But the real magic began when we reached Cheow Lan Lake. This place is incredibly beautiful—just imagine, turquoise water spilling among limestone cliffs that reach straight into the sky. Absolute silence and peace reign there. When you're sailing on a boat and hear only the lapping of the water and the singing of the jungle, you understand what true spiritual relaxation is. A night on the lake will be unforgettable. And the next morning, little miracles awaited us: we watched monkeys and even saw elephants in their natural habitat—it was so touching to see these giants in their own jungle home. We also had an incredible bamboo rafting experience. We slowly floated along the clear water with green tea brewed in a bamboo cup. The taste of the tea, the fresh air, the jungle all around—it was a moment of complete zen. A huge thank you to the organizers for this adventure. This wasn't just an excursion, but a true reboot!

It was incredible! We spent two days at Lake Cheow Lan! Our guide, Vera, was wonderful and amazing.
