Your itinerary across thailand!!
Day 1 - Arrive in bangkok
Arrival Day! You'll arrive at the Bangkok International Airport and greeted by your driver who will take you safely to the hotel where me and the rest of the group will be located. Everyone will be arriving at different times so this day will be a day to settle in and rest since you will most likely have had a longgggg travel day. You are also more than welcome to freely explore the town if you have the energy to. I will be personally eating at a local restaurant near the hotel that night and those who have arrived are more than welcome to join me!
Day 2 - bangkok City Tour
Today we start our adventure! We will be doing a full day tour to Bangkoks most stunning landmarks including The Grand Palace, Wat Pho/ Temple of the Reclining Buddha and Wat Arun. This will be a full day tour, so prepare yourself for the adventure! We’ll be sure to get an early nights sleep because tomorrow we head to our next city, Chiang Mai!
Day 3 - Fly to Chiang Mai
Today we will take an afternoon flight to up north to Chiang Mai. Once we arrive, you will have the option to relax for the day since or join us as the sun goes down where we’ll head to the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar where you can test taste a ton of different local cuisines, shop till you drop or have an ice cold beverage. Maybe later we’ll end up at a drag show or a Muay Thai fight! The night is up to us! Today is also a great day to relax because we will be non-stop adventuring in the coming days.
Day 4 - Elephant SANCTUARY
Today is going to be an exciting day as we will be heading to the elephant sanctuary for the day! We will drive a little over an hour to the location of the sanctuary in the mountains of Chiang Mai. Once we arrive the guides will brief us on the history of the elephants and their dark past where you’ll have the chance to ask them any questions you may have about the elephants. They will also explain the rules on how we can interact with the animals in the safest and best ways for the elephants.
After, we will begin our exciting day with the elephants in their natural habitat! We will walk with them, feed them and watch them enjoy their daily routine while interacting with them only when the elephants pursue the interactions with us first. This will be a private experience with just our group, lunch is also included during this day!
I do not support the exploitation or inhumane treatment of elephants in any way and have done extensive research on the sanctuary I am working with for these trips. Interactions with the elephants are initiated by the elephants and the elephants alone. These sanctuaries work very hard to give these incredible animals the life they deserve. 100% of the proceeds go directly to the elephants care and over all life like food, medical treatments, etc. The sanctuaries survive off of proceeds from trips like these to educate tourist on the harsh realities of elephant trekking and for tourist to witness the elephants new & free lives at the sanctuary.
Day 5 - Thai cooking class
This is only available for the 12 day tour. 9 day tour will be flying to Krabi this day.
Today you’ll finally get to sleep in! Mid afternoon we will head to a private local cooking class where you will get to choose which traditional Thai dishes you would like to learn to cook. If some of you aren’t the best cooks after the class is finished, no worries hahaha. We will enjoy some street food before heading back to our hotel for the night. You’re more than welcome to grab drinks as well at any of the local bars and enjoy the rest of your time in Chiang Mai because tomorrow, we head to paradise!!
Day 6 - Fly to Krabi
9 day tour will start their first island hopping tour today to Phi Phi Island (See description under day 7)
After enjoying breakfast and checking out of the hotel we will fly to paradise! Krabi will be our home for the next couple nights and will be where we depart to all our island hopping adventures! We will arrive around mid afternoon so you can head to your hotels, freshen up then we’ll stroll the tiny beach side town where we’ll find a great place to eat dinner, maybe do a little shopping and enjoy some cocktails for the night. Have a solid nights sleep because tomorrow we wake up early for some Island hopping!!
Day 7 - Island Hopping
9 day tour, will have a free day in Krabi today with optional day at poda island or Railay Beach.
This will be a full day experience where we will be stopping at different insanely beautiful locations. After breakfast, our drivers will pick us up from our hotel and drive us to our private boat. We’ll explore Phi Phi island, snorkeling at Bamboo Island, , Pileh Lagoon, Nui Bay & Koh Koh Phi Phi Don.
We’ll also enjoy a traditional Thai lunch in paradise on one of these breathtaking islands. We’ll be back on land around 5, so we’ll have just enough time to get cleaned up and catch sunset at one of the beach front restaurants. After dinner, enjoy the rest of the night how you’d like, whether at the night market, our for some drinks, getting a massage or getting an early nights sleep!
Day 8 - Free day w/ optional day trip to Poda Island
9 day Trip will be flying back to Bangkok this day
Today will be a free day where you can freely explore the island, treat yourself to a spa day, lounge on any of Krabi’s stunning beaches, OR join is on a day trip to Poda Island! I will have references to my favorite massage shop in Krabi as well as my favorite beaches. This is the perfect day to relax and treat yourself OR continue your adventure on one of our optional tours.
Day 9 - Island hopping tour #2
Depature day for the 9 day tour:(
On our second day of island hopping, we will have an early morning pickup from our hotel again to our private boat for the day to Hong islands and the surrounding islands and lagoons.
Today we will enjoy endless stunning beaches, swimming and snorkeling around all these beautiful destinations. Be sure to bring your go pros & cameras because you will regret not taking photos and videos of these jaw dropping locations!! A traditional Thai lunch will be served on one of these stunning islands and is included on this island hopping experience! We’ll be back at the hotel around 4pm, so enough time for you to relax and get ready for a night out!
Day 10 - Railay beach & kayaks to the limestone mountains
Today we’ll take one of the longtail boats to the stunning neighboring beach, Railay Beach. Those who just want to sunbathe are more than welcome to chill on the beach for the day, but there will be optional kayaking or paddle boring to some of the more secluded beaches, Phra Nang Cave Beach and Ko Rang Nok! I highly recommend doing the kayaks or paddle boards, getting up close and personal with the massive limestone caves/rocks are mind-blowing. If you plan to just chill on Railay beach, there are a number of food stalls and bars in the tiny little beach area for you to enjoy.
Day 11 - Fly back to bangkok
Unfortunately, it’s time for this adventure to come to an end. Today we will pack all our things and head back to the capitol city of Bangkok to prepare for your departure to your home countries tomorrow. We’ll be staying close to the airport to allow convenient airport drop offs for everyone!
Tonight you’ll also have the opportunity to go to one of the night market for souvenir shopping for your family and friends. Since it’s our last night together, we’ll enjoy some farewell drinks together and say our goodbyes:(
Day 12 - Departure day:(
Our adventure has come to an end:( I’ll be sad to see you go but will be so excited to have made some new, lifelong travel friends. Not only that, but I hope this trip will have inspired you to live your absolute BEST lives and motivates you to travel more whether solo or with friends.
