• From Phuket: John Grays Hong by Starlight kayak tour with transfers

    • Enjoy an afternoon of cave exploration in the fascinating marine geology of Phang Nga Bay – including the caves and hidden lagoons discovered by John Gray in 1989. Surrounded by breathtaking scenery and diverse wildlife, our world-renowned tour departs at midday to avoid the crowds. Private transfers are included. No need to eat lunch – we'll serve it on board our comfortable support boat. After lunch, a briefing, and a birds of prey show, a professional guide will paddle you through the tidal caves of Phang Nga Bay in our custom-made kayaks. The kayaks are handcrafted in Oregon by SOTAR, the world's leading manufacturer of whitewater rafting equipment. This unique experience is spectacular, yet Caveman's SOTAR kayaks are specifically designed for your tour. We have never capsized, broken down, or had any accidents. After a thorough briefing, your professional guide and your partner will paddle you through the Tidal Nape tidal caves, located literally inside the limestone islands of Phang Nga Bay, to the "hongs" (Thai for "rooms"). These hidden, cliff-fringed lagoons are home to macaques, monitor lizards, kingfishers, mudskippers, herons, sea eagles, and brahminy kites. After nightfall, we'll release your handcrafted flower kratong into the water in a spiritual and spectacular natural display. On the return trip, you'll enjoy our delicious vegan seafood buffet and arrive back at the pier two hours after sunset.
