Discover Krabi’s natural and cultural treasures on the Hot Springs, Emerald Pool & Tiger Cave Krabi Tour, a full-day jungle adventure that combines relaxation, exploration, and spirituality. This tour is ideal for families, couples, and travelers who want to experience the best of Krabi beyond the beaches.
The journey begins with hotel pick-up and a scenic drive through Krabi’s countryside. Your first stop is the Hot Springs in Klong Thom, where warm mineral-rich water flows through the jungle, creating natural hot tubs. The water, at around 40–45°C, is known for its soothing and therapeutic properties, perfect for relieving stress and relaxing tired muscles.
Afterward, continue to the famous Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot), located inside Khao Phra Bang Khram Nature Reserve. A short jungle walk brings you to a crystal-clear natural pool surrounded by lush forest. Here you can swim in refreshing turquoise water and, for those who wish to explore further, walk an additional 600 meters to see the Blue Pool, a deeper spring with striking blue water (seasonal access depending on conservation).
Lunch will be served at a local Thai restaurant before heading to the final stop, the Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea). This spiritual site is one of Krabi’s most important landmarks. Visitors can explore the lower temple with meditation caves or, for the adventurous, climb the 1,237 steps to reach the golden Buddha at the mountaintop. From here, enjoy panoramic views of Krabi town, limestone cliffs, and even the Andaman Sea on a clear day.
The Hot Springs, Emerald Pool & Tiger Cave Krabi Tour offers a perfect balance of nature, wellness, and culture. Whether you are soaking in warm jungle springs, swimming in natural pools, or experiencing Thai spirituality at a mountaintop temple, this tour is a must-do when visiting Krabi.
