The Emerald pool was a beautiful area, the hot springs were also amazing, the climb to the top of the temple was brutal in the heat, but well worth it when we got to the top. Would definitely recommend this trip. We loved it.”

“A great day to spend exploring inland, away from the Andaman islands. The short jungle trek to the pools is well worth it. Best to take the dip in the Emerald Pool after the walk to the Blue Pool. Lunch was good, as were the Hot Springs. The afternoon stair hike to the top of the hill at Tiger Cave Temple is a challenge, but the sight is worth it – or spend your time discovering the other attractions at the compound. Our guide, Chaow, did a grand job keeping us on track and time, kudoz.”
