A relaxing getaway amidst the serene waters and majestic mountains, where time slows down at Baan Kokkod.


Day 1 Itinerary

We departed from Bangkok at 7:20 AM.
[ Directions for those without a private vehicle are provided below. ]

The Giant Rain Tree of Kanchanaburi

At approximately 9:30 AM, we arrived in Kanchanaburi, where our first destination was the awe-inspiring Giant Rain Tree. This colossal tree, estimated to be over 100 years old, is a must-see for any visitor to the city. Its immense size and grandeur leave a lasting impression on all who behold it.

After finishing, we headed straight to our destination at Ban Kok Kod.


However, we must be prepared as we have been informed that there is no food available for purchase in Ban Kokod. Therefore, we must replenish our energy and stock up on provisions beforehand.

We stopped by the rice fields in Laad Kraa district, which was on our way. We also stopped to eat Pad Thai at Soon Heng restaurant to refuel.



Let's head straight to our destination, "Baan Kokkod."


The journey to Ban Kok Kat takes approximately 40 kilometers from Kanchanaburi.

  • Turn left at the Pong Pat intersection, which is on the same road as the entrance to Erawan Waterfall.

(This translates to "Or simply remember that the path they wrote about is the path that connects to Tha Yang District.")



We have arrived! Let's take a look around the atmosphere together...



Our rooms are two adjoining rooms with a price of 1,600 baht per night.



Let's continue to enjoy the atmosphere. The main activity here is kayaking. Other than that, you can simply relax and enjoy the scenery.


Capturing the serene atmosphere of nature, where everything is hushed and seems to be slowly revolving.

The first day ended when Nong Fon came to visit. In the evening, the owner will recommend a restaurant to eat at Uncle's, which is a restaurant far from Baan Kokod.


Just 2.5 km away, and after dinner, we will come to take pictures of the stars amidst the sound of frogs singing. But the rain kept falling, teasing us.

Our filming plans have been disrupted, so we will take a break and rest. We will meet again at dawn for the first light of the day.



On the second day of the trip, we woke up at 5:40 am. The rain was still falling. The rain, oh the rain.

Let's go all out, even though it's drizzling.

And then, around 7 o'clock, the sky cleared and we were able to paddle our boat and take pictures.

It's 10:00 AM, time to set off for today's destination.


Our first destination was Sai Yok Waterfall, but when we arrived, there wasn't even a single drop of water.

Let's just eat here since we're already here.



The second destination of the day is Tham Krasae Cave, where we will photograph the "pooon-pooon" train.



Our third and final destination was the Singha Historical Park.



This concludes our trip for now. I will share more about our next adventure soon.



- The total cost of the trip was only 1,380 baht per person, including everything.

- For those who do not have a private car, we can take a bus. The resort will pick us up at the Pong Pat intersection.
