As we have a concept concerning with preserving the nature, we therefore have water treated by septic tanks, no electricity there. Moreover, we have never received any complaint about a Malaria Disease since 1976 up until now.

The River Kwai Jungle Rafts have a little piece of paradise to offer you in the heart of the jungle, and a visit to this floatel moored along the historical river is a unique opportunity to step out of your everyday world into the harmony of nature.

As dusk turns into night and the river changes its mood, the cool evening reverberates the magical sounds of Mon music and their bizarre Balinese-like dancing. The night wanders on like the river; whispers and smiles pass across candlelit wooden tables as our host tells folkloric stories of the river.

Restaurant
To assure that your stay is pleasurable, the Jungle Rafts provide a menu which is as good for the body as the atmosphere is for the mind and spirit. You can select Thai or Western cuisine for the evening and begin the day with a hearty American Breakfast.

Activities
Bathe away the last traces of the outside world under breathtaking waterfalls, view wild orchids on jungle jaunts or explore deep inside mystical caves. You may wish to ride an elephant through the bush to “Mon” village, or just bask in the sun, before diving off your verandah for a cooling swim, fishing, canoeing, bamboo rafting in the River Kwai.

As day fades into night and the mood of the river becomes more reflective, the magical sounds of “Mon” music can be heard echoing through the night. You may choose to watch the “Mon” dancing in the Jungle Rafts own theatre. This traditional dance is both unique and beautiful.
