★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 339 reviews · from $227

Leave Bangkok at 6:30 am for a private Kanchanaburi tour with a guide such as Peter, Bella, or Preecha. Swim at seven-level Erawan Waterfall, walk the Death Railway, visit Krasae Cave, feed and bathe rescued elephants, and cross the River Kwai Bridge.

“The tour was quite surprising as we expected the most spectacular impressions to come from the natural sites or historic attractions. At the end of the day, this was the visit in the elephants’ farm which made the tour. Elephant feeding and cleaning experience was unforgettable though we initially thought about skipping this point to spend more time at the waterfalls. Many thanks to our guide for her very good service! The tour would be 5-stars if not the car in which we were travelling. It had its bumpers completely used and we could literally feel every little stone on the road in our kidneys.”
