Itinerary

Day: Description:
1-2 Bangkok:
Get acquainted with Thailand's steamy capital on an introductory walking tour. Amble through the Grand Palace, admire the enormous gilded Buddha at Wat Pho and graze your way through the day at the many street food stalls. A ride in a tuk-tuk is a quintessentially Thai experience so make sure to flag one down to get around town.
3 Chiang Mai:
Thailand's beloved northern capital is filled with enough peaceful temples, exotic markets and adventure sport activities to keep even the most jaded traveller happy. Perhaps book into a cooking class to learn the secrets of Thai cuisine or temple-hop within the city's moat boundaries, and don't miss the sunset from Doi Suthep. The Chiang Mai Night Bazaar is a must, but be sure to bargain hard. The town also has a thriving bar scene, so perhaps end a great day with a tasty Thai beer.
4-6 Hilltribe Trek:
Trekking Thailand's rugged hills is the absolute highlight of any northern adventure. The hilltribes that live here each have their own unique language, traditions and dress. The hike between iridescent rice paddies and along small tracks takes us to a remote village homestay for a taste of the hospitality these tribes are famous for. Sleep in huts, mingle with the tribespeople and get a sense of life in this remote corner of the world.
7 Chiang Mai:
There's time for a final spot of shopping or a relaxing Thai massage before boarding the train back to Bangkok.
8 Bangkok:
The adventure comes full circle in the capital. Why not stay a bit longer? Night and floating markets, Chinatown, temples and street stalls - Bangkok has it all.
