What to expect

  1. Big Buddha Temple (Wat Phra Yai)
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Our journey begins at one of Koh Samui’s most iconic landmarks—the magnificent Big Buddha Temple, known locally as Wat Phra Yai. Standing an impressive 12 meters tall, this golden statue is a true marvel, perched on its own small island and connected by a scenic causeway. From here, you’ll soak in breathtaking views and discover the rich stories behind this famous symbol of Buddhist culture. It’s a sight you simply can’t miss.
  2. Wat Plai Laem
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Next, we visit Plai Laem temple, a colorful and serene temple complex. Here, you’ll marvel at the intricate architecture and vibrant statues, including the 18-armed Guanyin, the goddess of compassion. It's a peaceful place perfect for capturing incredible photos and experiencing Thai spiritual traditions.
  3. Wat Teepangkorn
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Nestled high in the lush hills, Tee Pang Kron Temple is a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered. This serene sanctuary boasts a majestic golden seated Buddha and awe-inspiring views that will leave you breathless. Surrounded by nature’s beauty, it’s the perfect place to soak in the peaceful atmosphere and connect with the island’s spiritual essence.
  4. Ta Nim Magic Garden
    1h · Admission ticket included
    We continue to the Magic Garden, a mystical site nestled in the hills at 600 meters above sea level. Created in 1976 by a 77-year-old local artist, the garden features hand-carved stone sculptures of mythical creatures and figures set in a lush, tranquil environment. It's a magical experience that feels like stepping into another world.
  5. Na Muang Waterfall

    Our next stop is Na Mueang 1 Waterfall, a stunning natural wonder surrounded by dense jungle. Take a refreshing dip in the cool waters or simply enjoy the tranquil setting, perfect for relaxation and great photos.
  6. 1h · Admission ticket included
    Our journey takes us to the fascinating Kunaram Temple, home to one of Thailand's most extraordinary sights—the mummified monk, a revered figure in Thai Buddhism. Preserved in a meditative pose, the monk, Luang Pho Daeng, passed away over 40 years ago and is believed to have achieved enlightenment. This sacred site offers a unique glimpse into local spiritual beliefs, the practice of meditation, and the deep respect Thai culture holds for its religious traditions. It’s a powerful and inspiring experience you’ll never forget.
  7. Hin Ta & Hin Yai Rocks
