The suggested hotels will be specified in the detailed itinerary. We include well-located hotels in the quote that have been well-received by our clients. You can also suggest hotels of your preference to have services to your liking; rest assured, we can offer customized services and tours.
During your free time on the island, we leave you free to relax, but we can certainly arrange excursions to the nearby small islands. These are typically group excursions with English-speaking guides/instructors. You can also inquire with the hotel about these excursions.
We engage in hikes of an easy to moderate level, lasting from 3 to 5 hours. However, the duration and difficulty of the hikes depend on your health condition. This private program can be customized on-site.
We do not include international flights in our travel packages for economic reasons. Indeed, the cost of international tickets would be more expensive if we were to arrange them from Vietnam. Although unusual, this is the pricing policy applied by airlines. Therefore, airfares tend to be cheaper if purchased from the country of departure. We can provide advice on this if needed.
Yes, you can definitely go hiking in Thailand, particularly in the Chiang Mai region. This area offers travelers numerous hiking opportunities amidst its lush vegetation. For off-the-beaten-path experiences, consider visiting Mae Hong Son and Pai, which are populated by various ethnic minority groups, including the long-necked Karen people.
Yes, we offer several exciting activities for your children. In Bangkok, you can take bicycle or motorcycle rides through its bustling streets, take part in a Muay Thai class, or even watch a match. In Chiang Mai in the north, a visit to the elephant camps is highly recommended. You can also join a cooking class to explore the local cuisine.
In the southern islands, boat trips for snorkeling or diving are greatly loved by children.
Thailand attracts tourists not only for its rich and diverse culture but also for its magnificent landscapes. Begin your journey in the Central region of Thailand with Bangkok, the Thai capital where you can savor delicious dishes and experience the bustling city life. Not far from Bangkok, you'll discover the historic city of Ayutthaya, steeped in history, as well as the lush national parks in the Kanchanaburi region.
Moving up to the North, you'll visit Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. This region offers travelers breathtaking landscapes with terraced rice fields and opportunities to meet welcoming minority ethnic groups.
The Southern region, a favorite of many travelers, is where you'll find places like Phuket, Krabi, Koh Samui, each boasting white sandy beaches, turquoise waters, and incredible underwater landscapes.
A panoramic tour of Thailand would require one week on-site. Such a duration would allow you to explore must-visit places like Bangkok with its impressive temples and bustling streets, as well as the Chiang Mai region with its lush nature in the north.
If you wish to delve deeper into the authentic north or plan a beach extension, allocate an additional 3-4 days.
For those seeking a comprehensive itinerary that includes remarkable sites across the country along with a beach stay at the end of the journey, a duration of 2 weeks is highly recommended.
For tourists from the United States, Canada, the UK, Australia, and most EU countries, a Thailand Tourist Visa is issued by a Thai Embassy, Consulate, or e-visa system for tourism purposes, unlike the 60-day visa exemption (extendable by 30 days) granted on arrival. Work is not allowed.
The best time to visit Thailand, without a doubt, is from November to April. It's Thailand's dry season, characterized by sunny days and minimal rainfall. The weather is pleasant during this period, with temperatures ranging from 28 to 34 degrees Celsius, making it ideal for sightseeing, outdoor activities, and also for a beach vacation in the beautiful southern beach resorts such as Phuket, Koh Phi Phi, Krabi, and more.
