What people usually pay
Budget for national park entrance fees on many Koh Lanta day trips, especially to Koh Haa, Koh Rok, and Phi Phi area sites. Fees are typically collected by rangers or handled through your operator and can change, so confirm amounts at booking. Thailand has also discussed a separate nationwide tourism entry fee in recent years; treat it as a check-before-you-go item rather than a guaranteed line item.
