Amazing, simply amazing. Kakada made the tour, we are so lucky to have been on this tour with g adventures and supported with such a wonderful CEO. I felt the passion that he has in what he does.
Travel through Northern Thailand on this eight-day adventure from Bangkok to Chiang Mai.

Learn about the Lanna village Pong Huai Lan community project, follow your local leader through the bustling fresh produce market in Chiang Mai and enjoy the welcoming hospitality in the Land of Smiles.
The guide was really knowledgeable and was able to tell us about the history of all the places we visited. The itinerary was good and we were able to see many sights and places that we would not normally see if we had booked on our own. The bus was also super comfortable and the driver was helpful and excellent on the road. The hotels that we stayed in were 4 stars and I would highly recommend this tour
Alles super organisiert, man bracht man sich keine Gedanken zu machen und Sachen selber planen. Wenn man mal eigenständig was unternehmen will, kann man sich immer an seinen Tourguide wenden, er hat uns immer super geholfen und beraten (bei uns: Arthur, wirklich cooler, entspannter und witziger Typ). Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist auch absucht fair. Man kann wirklich tolle Menschen kennenlernen und viel über andere Kulturen lernen und seinen Horizont erweitern. Aber: Manchmal etwas eng getaktet und wenig Freizeit. Ob das gut oder schlecht ist, muss jeder für sich selber entscheiden.
Combine the history of the Khmer Empire with the modern energy of Phnom Penh for a week-long introduction to Cambodia. Witness the grandeur of ancient Angkor Wat – the famed UNESCO World Heritage site, see the enigmatic faces of Bayon temple, confront the tragedy of the recent past with sobering visits to the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S21) and the Killing Fields of Choeung Ek and be blessed by a local monk. Visit local farms, homes and the floating village of Kampong Phluck to rub shoulders with the locals and tuck into some delicious local cuisine – this is the perfect snapshot of the many wonders inside Cambodia!
Amazing - loved the trip so much due to the semi-structured style of it and the amount of free time provided. I was able to do everything I wanted to do on the trip and more. Lu, our CEO, was brilliant! I would recommend this trip to anyone looking to go to Vietnam.
