Real Thailand

Real Thailand

Leave behind bustling Bangkok streets and go deeper into the parts of Thailand that most travellers never see in Doi Inthanont National Park. Here, you’ll find Hilltribe villages, waterfalls and jungle. And from there, it just keeps getting better. Sure, you’ll see the vaunted beaches of Koh Samui and Ao Nang, but you’ll also spend a night in a rafthouse in Khao Sok National Park and partake in a Muay Thai Class in Chiang Mai. Now THIS is Thailand.

Highlights

• Feel like one of the locals on overnight train journeys throughout this trip. Grab some snacks from the on-board vendors, utilise your phrase book, rub shoulders with the locals and embrace this unique journey.
• Taste the best of Thailand. Obsessed with the Tom Yam Goong at your local Thai joint? Imagine how much better it would be in Thailand, on a beach, with a cocktail, at sunset. Nice, eh?
• Koh Samui is a slice of paradise. Cruise the island, go chasing waterfalls and feel peachy on the beach before carving up the dance floor in one of Koh Samui’s famous bars.
• Kick back for a few days in Ao Nang with plenty of free time to take up optional activities! Cook some food in a Thai cooking class, cook yourself in some hot springs or paddle to a hidden lagoon on Koh Hong island.
• Get your street food fix in bustling Bangkok and tuck into some of the tastiest eats in all of Asia. Did someone say ‘mango sticky rice’? Yes, please!
