I went there a couple of weeks ago, but we didn't walk up to the caves. They do tell the that the views are great, but it's only a half-day trip at best.

Erawan Caves definately worth a look Steve, but not that exciting. A couple of hours at most, but the Country around there is very good on the eye

The Caves are well worth a visit....very quiet on working weekdays,empty car park though some food stalls may be open, a good walk up to the cave entrance take some water and leave the highheels in the car....great view, you can go right into the dark depths, you will spot the cave opening from a distance when travelling to it, a nice lake nearby too., not a day trip few hours max then move on.

pics of erawan cave about 6 years ago. the pic overlooking valley is once in cave, buddha entrance, down inside, where light comes thru roof, make sure it's a sunny day, good photo op, then it up steps, if i remember, to exit at other side, for pics of valley below, then return same way you got there thru front buddha entrance.

Pic Number 4....Beam Me Up Scotty...lol

Erawan worth a visit and to second what BM said about water and footwear only I don't wear high heels... Also you might want to bring a change of shirt... I walked to the top and sweated buckets... Looked like I'd swam with my clothes on.

Also on that map you will see Phu Phoilom and Thanngam waterfall... Your in-laws will no doubt be aware of these places but may never have visited ( if like my monster-in-law) so they will appreciate getting to see them.

Phu Phoilom.
