Congratulations, you plucky adventurer! You've chosen an epic trip that will deliver so much in just 10-days. On arrival at Suvarnabhumi International Airport (Airport Code: BKK), your driver will meet you and transfer you to your first hotel located in the bustling heart of the Chinatown district. Depending on your arrival time, one of our team will either be there to meet you or if you arrive late at night, will meet you tomorrow morning. You will receive a lot of information about your trip and meet your private, English-speaking tour guide who will guide you along this unforgettable journey. By the end of the trip, you can sure this person will be near and dear to your heart. If you want to explore, we will then take you out for a walk in the immediate local area to introduce you to Chinatown and points of places of interest.

Being in the heart of Chinatown means you're in the heart of the old city. This area is steeped in history with some incredible sights and places to visit. As Bangkok is such a sprawling metropolis the quickest, and most fun way to move around, is by electric scooter! So today you'll be led on a guided tour as you navigate the narrow backstreets, markets, temples, and more of this stunning and historic area of the city. You'll be collected from the hotel and returned there in the afternoon so that you have a chance to freshen up and prepare for your overnight train transfer to charming Chiang Mai in the north. Everything will be organised for you so that all you need to do is be ready to leave the hotel on time for your transfer to the station. On board the train you have your very own bed, with fresh bedding supplied, to give you a comfortable night's sleep allowing you to arrive at your next destination fresh and ready to go!

Today, we arrive in Khao Sok National Park. Private pickup will transfer us from the train station to the exceptionally unique Our Jungle House Resort. After checking in, the afternoon is yours to spend as you please with plenty to explore in the surrounding jungle area - including a river for a quick dip. Khao Sok National Park is a nature reserve of dense virgin jungle, towering limestone karst formations, and the man-made Cheow Lan Lake. It’s home to rare species such as the giant parasitic Rafflesia flower, hornbill birds, gibbons, sun bears, sambar deer, and the boisterously vocal macaques. On the first evening, we sit down for a full-course dinner surrounded by the wild sounds of the jungle. After dinner, you can enjoy the jungle views from the treehouse terrace, enjoy some local beers or beverages, or tuck in early and soak in the sounds of the jungle as you nod off in jungle paradise.

Then, it is time to unplug and unwind - no wi-fi, no problem! You have the pleasure of your group and serene nature to keep you company this evening. Cheow Lan Lake is an unbelievable nature escape and the floating bungalows are a one-of-a-kind experience. Enjoy the crystal clear water, soak in some sun, and breathe in the breathtaking vistas of this remarkable destination. All meals are included today so there's not a single concern to be had. Want to stay active? Jump in for a swim - anywhere and everywhere. Kayaks are also available to explore the towering limestone peaks, spot the abundant wildlife, and stop off at one of the dozens of untouched islands spotted along the lake. You make this day as active or laid-back as you'd like. Sunrise here is not to be missed. The morning glow on the lake, singing birds, hooting monkeys - heaven! We also suggest a refreshing morning swim, just steps from your bungalow door. After breakfast, we catch the boat back to the pier and we're off to Phuket for some proper beach time.

After two days tucked away in the lush jungle of Khao Sok National Park, time for your first beach days in Thailand! Our private transfer brings you from Khao Sok to Phuket and then it is time for some R&R. The extra accommodating Burasari Hotel is where you will call home for the next four nights.
