Great Recommendation
This isn't advertising, because I don't have a stake in this place... but my Dad and I spent a fantastic day out there yesterday (See photos) - Flight of the Gibbons in Chonburi...
http://www.treetopasia.com/?gclid=CK2r4JPkip8CFcQvpAodRV_sIQ Me and my Dad... Spiral staircase up the tree....
Zipline down....
Safety at all times... even when having a drink in the tree house...
Leaving the tree house....
Wooden bridges...
Last zipline is 300 metres long!!!
And finally abseiling down...
The Flight of the Gibbon experience is in Khao Kiew National Park - about 90 minutes drive from BKK. The cost for the day is 2300+ thb. But we got Thai price at 1750 thb because we had work permits or retirement visas. There are other deals available including a two day stopover and 'Go Gibbon' which looked like a long obstacle course through the jungle. They have a pick-up service in Bangkok or Pattaya which takes you out to the attraction
We had the 3 hours zipline experience, which covers 24 ziplines through the trees, a couple of bridges and abseiling spots.
It also includes entry into the zoo - which was an OK zoo, but nowhere near as nice as safari parks - smallish cages and not too clean. At first, I was concerned about the cost and the safety - but the experience was great and safety was second to none... At one point I was spying on a Thai guide... he thought he was completely alone - however, he still adhered to all the safety rules, using his safety line even on a simple area.I liked this place so much, I promised the staff I would recommend it to lots of people. I would definitely revisit, and if TF were to arrange a trip I'd join again.
