Day 1

Welcome to Thailand

Welcome to Thailand! Check in and drop your bags, let's start exploring. Whether you are craving a Pad Thai or want to dive straight into some culture, Bangkok is the perfect city to wander around when you are feeling a little jet-lagged. This evening you'll meet your group and head out for dinner and drinks to get to know each other better! After our first proper taste of Thailand's incredible food scene, we can venture to explore some markets and see where the night takes us!

Temples and Boat Rides

We've got a jam-packed day today that's going to fill your cup in SO many ways. We're starting off by heading over to the Rha Pinklao Bridge pier to jump on a long-tail boat to explore the city by water. This is the perfect way to travel over to today's awesome temples. In the afternoon, we'll visit Wat Arun and Wat Pho (aka The Temple of the Reclining Buddha) and learn all about Thai culture. Then it's back to the hotel to chill before heading out to explore Bangkok at night!

It's our final day in Bangkok, and it's up to you how you spend it! Whether you fancy hitting up some markets, exploring more of the city's culture or trying some more of Bangkok's specialities (mango sticky rice is calling,) this is the day to do as you please! Later this afternoon, we will visit the motherland (aka 7/11) to grab some snacks ready for the overnight train! Watch as the bustle of Bangkok melts away and in its place, striking scenes of the tranquil lake of Khao Sok National Park, situated in the Surat Thani province of Thailand.

Later on, we are off on a boat trip to explore the local area, and if we're lucky, we might stop by some of the giant local residents - elephants! Then we'll come back to our floating bungalows and enjoy some dinner surrounded by the beauty of Khao Sok.
