What to expect

Perfect for young adults on a budget, you’ll leave the bustling Bangkok streets behind as you experience Thailand like a local on this 16 day tour.

First up, you’ll explore the palaces and ruins of the ancient capital Ayutthaya before taking an overnight train to Chiang Mai – the perfect entrance to the Thai highlands.

From Chiang Mai, you’ll trek through dramatic landscapes to colourful hillside villages. You’ll even have a home cooked dinner by the campfire.

Next up, you’ll be heading back through Bangkok to the simply stunning Koh Samui. Here, you’ll go chasing waterfalls, have ample opportunity to take a dip, or even take up the optional activity of an up close and personal elephant experience.

Day 12 is arguably the pick of the bunch. You’ll be riding a traditional longtail boat into one of the oldest jungles on earth, where you’ll be staying the night in a rafthouse.

Your adventure of a lifetime ends in the Thai Paradise at Ao Nang Beach. You’ll have plenty of time to partake in optional activities like cooking classes or rock climbing. Alternatively, you can simply relax on the beach as you reflect upon new friendships and treasured memories.
