National parks in Thailand

Elephant in Khao Yai National Park, ThailandThailand has one of the highest percentages of protected land of any nation in the world. The National Parks Act of 1961 established Khao Yai as the first official wildlife sanctuary and today the country boasts over 100 national parks, with 19 of these being marine parks.

The ecological diversity of Thailand's national parks is remarkable. Whilst today the larger species such as the Asiatic bear and Asian tiger are rather elusive, there are still great viewing opportunities available including hornbills in Doi Inthanon, wild elephants in Khao Yai and giant manta rays in the Similan Islands.

From comfortable rainforest camps to spa resorts, we can offer a wide range of accommodation options from which to explore these areas. The level of activity can also be tailored to suit your pace and interest.
