Day 4:  AoNang Sanctuary of the Elephants ( Tour Shared )
    After a breakfast (early in the morning), a shuttle will take you to the entrance to the AoNang Elephant
                                  Sanctuary. How not to resist the chance to hug these adorable floppy eared
                                  giants?  Is  it  part  of  the  Thai  adventure  to  see  an  elephant  and  stroke  an
                                  elephant, maybe even ride one?
                                  Although our agency is opposed to the use of animals as a source of tourist
                                  attraction, so we avoid shows with dolphins and tigers, we make an exception
                                  for Elephants. In Thailand, Elephants are still used as a means of transporting
                                  and removing timber, and once they reach old age, when they are no longer
                                  able to work, they are welcomed in these Sanctuaries.

    An average adult elephant measures 2.5 to 4 meters with a weight of 2,268 to 6,350 kilograms. This means
                                  that an average adult elephant will need at least 23
                                  times more food and water than a 100kg person.
                                  In  fact,  being  herbivores  that  do  not  consume
                                  proteins, they tend to spend 12-18 hours just eating
                                  and can consume at least 91 kilograms of food and
                                  190  liters  of  water.  Visiting  these  sanctuaries  is
                                  necessary for the survival and good treatment of the
                                  elephant itself. Better than the usual walking tours,
                                  where you can see some elephants and ride them,
                                  here you can bond with the elephants while you take
                                  care of them. You will also have the satisfaction of
                                  investing your money in something that matters: an
                                  ethical  sanctuary  that  truly  takes  care  of  these
                                  endangered creatures. On your return, you can relax
                                  on AoNang beach, but at sunset, a walk on the nature
    trail of the monkeys awaits you, where these little friends will approach, looking for some small bananas,
    which you must always have with you

    Day 5:  AoNang  - Hong Tour whit Long Tail Boat ( Private tour )
    After a breakfast (early in the morning) a shuttle will take you to boarding to spend another day to discover
                                  other wonderful islands.
                                  Hong Tours with Long Tail Boat, is one of the most
                                  evocative attractions in the area, we always try to
                                  organize the departure, in the morning at the first
                                  light of dawn, in order to find deserted, at least the
                                  first  islands.  The  first  island  that  awaits  us  is
                                  Loadading  Island,  a  small  island  with  unspoiled
    nature and crystal clear water, home to a beautiful bird with an intense blue color.
    Later the stop will be on Pakbia Island, another very fascinating small island, from the water transparent and
                                  turquoise. The island is very narrow and in the
                                  center, a strip of sand, allows you to swim from
                                  both sides of the island. The next stop, in the
                                  Koh  Hong  lagoon.  Once  in  Koh  Hong,  a  few
                                  meters  pack  in  the  rock  gives  access  to  an
                                  enchanting lagoon with emerald green water. A
                                  bath in these waters, after having refreshed and
                                  quenched your thirst, with the fruit and drinks offered by your captain, will make
    you find tranquility and infinite peace. Then you will disembark in Koh Hang, where a beautiful beach and
    the cave of the "****" await you to discover. In honang, it is the only place where you can have refreshments,
    in the only restaurant close to the beach, where you will also find all the necessary services. In tow, before
    leaving, a walk along the island's nature trail awaits you, where it is not difficult to meet some tropical animals.
    After the tour, you will be taken back to your
