Lanta Old Town Tour is the best cultural half day tour in Koh Lanta that combines nature and local history in one amazing trip. If you are looking for a cultural boat tour from Koh Lanta with mangrove exploration, this program is perfect for you. Start your day with a peaceful longtail boat ride through Thung Yee Pheng Mangrove Forest, the largest and most protected mangrove forest on Koh Lanta Yai island. This experience will take you deep into the green mangrove tunnel where you can touch real nature, see fiddler crabs, sea eagles and feed monkeys at Monkey Point. Suitable for all ages, family, couples and no kayaking needed.
Our cultural half day trip starts with hotel pickup from every area on Koh Lanta island. Our driver will take you to Tung Yee Peng Pier on the northeast coast. This pier is the gateway to the mangrove forest. When you join this tour, you will board a traditional longtail boat and cruise slowly into the mangrove river.
During the boat trip, you will experience the real green nature. The forest is home to mudskippers, fiddler crabs, monkeys, and many birds. Our local guide will explain about the mangrove ecosystem. The highlight in this part is Monkey Point, where friendly monkeys live. You can take photos and feed them carefully under guide supervision.
After mangrove exploration, we continue to Lanta Old Town on the east coast. This historic village was built over 100 years ago by Chinese merchants. You will walk along traditional wooden stilt houses, see the Chinese shrine, local souvenir shops, and meet friendly local people. This part shows you authentic local life far from tourist beaches. Lunch is served in a local restaurant in the old town, then transfer back to your hotel. It is the perfect choice if you want culture + nature in half day.
