Phang Nga Jungle: 5-in-1 Rafting, Zipline & ATV Day Trip from Phuket

Spend a full day swapping Phuket’s beaches for Phang Nga’s jungle: 5 km of white-water rafting, a treetop zipline, a short ATV ride, a waterfall swim and a visit to the Monkey Cave Temple. Expect varied terrain, solid safety briefings, and a long but rewarding day of outdoor action.

The Experience

Before You Go

Get there early

Be ready for a 7:00–8:30 AM pickup window—arriving to the meeting point early avoids delays and gives time for a full safety briefing.

Wear quick-dry layers

Synthetic shirts and shorts that dry fast are better than cotton; bring an extra set for the return transfer.

Secure loose items

Use a dry bag or leave phones and valuables on the transfer vehicle—water crossings and ATVs can throw things loose.

Know the weight limits

Zipline weight limits (about 90 kg) and ATV fit limits are enforced for safety—check your guide before boarding.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Small waterfall pools off the main trail—quiet spots for a cool dip after rafting
  • Side trails near the campsite revealing limestone outcrops and birdwatching perches

Wildlife

  • Long-tailed macaque (monkeys at the cave temple)
  • Kingfishers and sunbirds along the river corridor

Conservation Note

Operators often limit group sizes and require guides to brief visitors on wildlife interactions; avoid feeding monkeys and pack out all trash to reduce human-wildlife conflicts.

Phang Nga’s landscape formed from ancient marine limestone; the cave temples have served local communities for centuries and combine Buddhist worship with reverence for natural caverns.
