Package holiday to Erawan National Park

Erawan National Park in Kanchanaburi Province is home to one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Thailand and Southeast Asia. The namesake Erawan Waterfall cascades in seven tiers through dense tropical forest, with each cascade forming its own natural swimming pool filled with crystal-clear, turquoise water. The limestone of the region gives the water its unreal, intense color reminiscent of Caribbean beaches.

The ascent through all seven tiers takes about two hours and involves rooty jungle paths, wooden stairs, and occasionally steep sections. The lower tiers are easily accessible and family-friendly — here, the famous nibbling fish (Garra Rufa) gently nibble at the feet of bathers. The upper tiers (5 to 7) require sure-footedness and reward visitors with increasing solitude and more spectacular pools. The seventh tier resembles the three-headed elephant Erawan from Hindu mythology in its shape.

The national park covers 550 square kilometers and protects tropical monsoon forest with wild elephants, gibbons, numerous bird species, and rare butterflies. Limestone caves such as the Phartat Cave with its stalactites offer additional exploration opportunities. The park is located about 65 kilometers northwest of Kanchanaburi City and is a popular day trip, with early arrival (before 9 AM) recommended to avoid the crowds. Entrance fee is 300 Baht for foreigners, and the park is open daily from 8 AM to 4:30 PM.

Erawan National Park particularly impresses with breathtaking nature. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
