From sunrise to the lake
The first stop is the Samet Nangshe viewpoint at dawn. As the sky lightens, the landscape below looks strikingly like a scene from Avatar, and it is one of the most photogenic moments of any trip to Thailand. From there you continue to the Sky Walk glass bridge, where a walk over the transparent floor is both a small test of courage and a superb photo session.
Cheow Lan Lake
The heart of the day is a trip across Cheow Lan Lake. You stop at the floating hotels on the water and have time to swim at a private beach, surrounded by quiet water and greenery. After the energy of the glass bridge, this part of the route is all about calm and slowing down.
Temple and monkeys
On the way back you visit a Buddhist temple, where the guide introduces you to local spiritual traditions, and meet the friendly monkeys that live nearby. It is a gentle, meaningful finish to a day that combines adventure, nature and culture.
Who this route is for
Nature and film lovers will be drawn to the Samet Nangshe views, thrill-seekers will enjoy the glass bridge, and anyone looking for peace will appreciate the lake and the temple. Because the car is private, you travel only with your own company of up to four people.
Practical details
To catch the sunrise, pickup from your hotel is very early — between 4:00 and 4:30 in the morning. The tour lasts about nine hours and includes a Russian-speaking guide.
