This half-day tour brings you to the 2 mainland attractions of Krabi. Check out the natural Hot Spring near Klong Thom and trek to the natural bath of the Crystal Pool with a refreshing swim in the pond.

Check out Krabi's famous Emerald Pool and hot springs on this refreshing half-day tour. Go for a swim in the cool, mineral-rich water of the Emerald Pool, then treat yourself as you relax by the Krabi hot springs or take a soak in their warm freshwater streams.

After pickup from your hotel, head to the Khao Phra Bang Khram Nature Reserve. Head into the lush, dense jungle and follow a path to the Emerald Pool, a 1,291-square foot (120-sq m) pond with strikingly green water. An abundance of minerals from the surrounding limestone hills gives the pool its jade tone. Talk a short walk to admire one of the pool's source streams, watching the current tumble over rocks made smooth by mineral deposits. To escape the heat of the day, hop into the cool water itself and go for a refreshing swim.

Following your dip in the Emerald Pool, visit Krabi's natural hot springs. In the flourishing forest, discover Klong Thom Waterfall, a small and gentle cascade made unique by the 122-degree Fahrenheit (50 C) waters that bubble up from its source. By the time the water lands in the pool below the falls, it's the perfect temperature for soaking and letting yourself unwind—a relaxing end to your tour.
