Ride an army-style 4x4 through Koh Samui’s interior to temples, the mummified monk, Hin Ta & Hin Yai rocks and the cooling pool of Namuang Waterfall. This full‑day loop mixes cultural stops with rugged jeep ridges and scenic mountain views.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The back of a 4x4 army jeep bounces up a jungle ridge and the island unfolds—scrubby palms give way to steeper green, a ribbon of road cutting toward a distant viewpoint where the sea flashes between headlands. The day begins like that: a handful of stops linked by a route that alternates sacred stillness and raw landscape. You thread through village roads, pass rubber and coconut plantations where locals bend to the day’s labor, and move from gilded temple courtyards to the cooling spray of Namuang Waterfall.
