About this tour
Programme B is a full day of activities in and around Kathu and Pa Khlok, all within a short drive of each other, so more time is spent doing and less on the road. We collect you from your Phuket hotel at the time you choose and return you in the late afternoon. Zipline. A jungle zipline course through the rainforest canopy: a series of platforms, sky bridges and abseils, with a safety briefing and full equipment, guided by the park's instructors. Suitable from 4 years old. ATV. A guided quad-bike ride on forest and plantation tracks (about 30–60 minutes). Drivers must be 15 or older; younger children ride as passengers. Elephants. Choose the style you prefer when you send the request: a traditional elephant trek at an elephant camp, or a no-riding sanctuary visit where you feed, walk with and bathe the elephants. Many of our guests prefer the sanctuary option; both are available. Tiger Kingdom. Walk through the park and, if you wish, enter an enclosure with the keepers for photos. The park sets its own age and height rules: visitors under 15 may enter the cub enclosure only, and the other enclosures require a height of 160 cm or more. Lunch is taken at a local restaurant between activities; halal-friendly meals can be arranged on request and prayer time can be planned into the day. Price: shown per person for the 10-platform zipline course, one hour of ATV (passenger rate for children), a 30-minute elephant trek and one Tiger Kingdom enclosure (small or medium; the cub enclosure for visitors under 15). Longer zipline courses, more enclosures or the sanctuary option are quoted on request; for a day without riding and without the tiger park see Programme B-Ethical.

Good to know
How do I book this tour?
Choose your date and party, then request to book. We check availability with the operator and reply on WhatsApp. Nothing is reserved until we confirm it in writing.
When do I pay?
Only after the details are agreed and confirmed. Payment details are sent to you in the chat; we confirm in writing once payment is verified.
Is the price on this page the final total?
It is the operator's published price, which the estimate uses. The total is agreed with you personally before anything is reserved; a park fee or pick-up surcharge is stated where it applies.
Will I know who is driving?
Yes. Before you travel you receive the vehicle and driver details, and the driver receives your pick-up, party and preferences on a job sheet.
Can this day be halal-friendly?
Tell us when you request. We plan meals, prayer time and stops around it where the programme allows. It is a preference we plan around, not a certification.
What if I need to cancel?
If the trip cannot go ahead for a reason that is not yours (weather, sea conditions, earthquake, flood, or the operator cancelling), you get a full refund or a new date. If you cancel for a reason of your own, the payment is not refunded unless the tour’s own terms say otherwise.
