Click for Dates and Prices Day 1 Bangkok
Loud, bright, chaotic and delightful, Bangkok is a city of modern excesses intermingled with simple traditions, all wrapped up in the famous smiles of the locals.

Days 2-3 Sangkhlaburi
Set in amongst remote jungle scenery, Sangkhlaburi is blessed with traditional villages, wildlife reserves, friendly locals and a relaxed feel away from the tourist crowds.

Day 4 Thong Pha Phum
Thong Pha Phum is a small, unaffected town set within a gorgeous landscape, and has lovely hot springs and waterfalls where you can while away the day.

Day 5 Kanchanaburi
Famed for being the location of the Bridge on the River Kwai, Kanchanaburi is a beautiful town surrounded by verdant jungle, waterfalls and rivers.

Day 6 Thai House
Learn more about the local culture and spend the night with a family in their traditional teak house, located just outside of Bangkok.

Days 7-8 Bangkok
Bangkok is more than just colourful city streets, khlongs (canals) weave their way through suburbs, forest parks green up the city and Buddhist temples help bring serenity.
