Highlights

Bangkok: Nose around the gilded Royal Palace, then travel like a local: floating down the Rivers. 

Kanchanaburi: A sombre slice of history. See the Death Railway Museum, WWII Cemetery and the famous Bridge itself. 

Kanchanaburi: Candle-lit rooms.In the middle of the jungle. And lots of delicious local food to devour. It's really a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Oh, and you can even jump in the river directly from your room! IKR.

Kanchanaburi: Cool off in emerald pools, shower under a waterfall and get your step count up. All in a day's work.

Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya: Golden temples, a giant reclining Buddha and so many incredible sights to see. Try not to fall off your bike in shock!

Chiang Mai: Meet these gentle giants (plus rescued rabbits, cats and water buffalo) at this Elephant Nature Park – a kind-hearted elephant sanctuary. 

Itinerary

The North of Thailand is a haven for travellers, and it's easy to see why. Venturing into this part of the world sees you explore bustling cities and picturesque highlands. Expect to see a side to Thailand that most people miss, like staying overnight in a floating jungle raft, learning to cook the local cuisine like a pro, basking in the gilded Grand Palace, and eating your way around the Pai night markets. And that's just a sprinkling of what we have in store for you.

day 1Bangkok

Touch down in Thailand's capital. After checking into our hotel there'll be time for DIY exploring, a massage or lying by the pool to catch the first of that sweet tropical sunshine. Later we'll rendezvous back at base so you can hear what's in store for the trip, then the night is yours to enjoy authentic Pad thai & the Khao San road nightlife.

Loved every bit of this trip! The stays were all fantastic. All inter-city commutes were smooth and comfortable. Food was great. All the included and add-on activities were super fun. Our tour guide was the best - super chill, calm, fun, on top of everything, always available to help out. This trip is so different from the regular Thailand trips - lots of greenery, waterfalls, rivers, forests, nature trails, etc. I would highly recommend!

It was amazing wonderful and incredible. I did the north of Thailand with the group and then flew to koh samui. I didn’t realise they were going south as well which I would have joined for. Amazing experience, the trip was planned so well and we fit in a lot!
