This thirteen night journey through Thailand combines city life, culture and beach time in one well balanced route. Start in Bangkok with time to explore the river, neighbourhoods and food scene, continue north to Chiang Mai for temples and local markets, then finish with a relaxed beach stay in Khao Lak.
Begin in Bangkok, a city that mixes modern life with historic neighbourhoods, riverside walks and street food at every turn. Staying on the Chao Phraya River makes it easy to move around by boat or taxi, with markets, temples and shopping areas close by. A hop on hop off sightseeing pass is included, giving you a simple way to get your bearings and see the main sights over your first days.
One afternoon includes a guided e scooter trip through local streets and food spots, offering a different view of the city and a chance to try well known Thai dishes without needing to plan the route yourself.
Fly north to Chiang Mai, a historic city set against forested hills in northern Thailand. Inside the old city walls, temples such as Wat Phra Singh and Wat Chedi Luang sit alongside cafés, markets and small local shops. A guided temples trip is included, giving you a clear introduction to the city’s main sights, while evenings are best spent wandering the Night Bazaar or the Sunday Walking Street Market for food and souvenirs.
Finish the trip in Khao Lak, a relaxed beach area on Thailand’s Andaman coast. Long stretches of sand such as Bang Niang Beach sit close to low key restaurants and beach bars, while nearby national parks and waterfalls offer easy day trips if you want to get out and explore. Your resort is well placed for slow mornings by the pool, walks along the beach and simple evenings nearby, making it a calm and easy way to round off the journey.
