Thailand’s National Parks & Krabi - 11 day tour

Welcome to Bangkok, Thailand's capital city. Upon arrival you will be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel. Enjoy the rest of the evening at your own leisure.
Overnight: Bangkok

This morning visit the colourful Flower Market before continuing on to the spiritual and religious heart of the city - the striking Grand Palace. Topped by golden stupas, the complex has been the site of royal coronations and is home to the legendary Emerald Buddha. Next take a tuk tuk ride to Wat Pho, home to the famous golden Reclining Buddha.

From here cross Chao Phraya River for lunch at Supatra, a traditional Thai restaurant set on the river banks, before boarding a longtail boat to explore the city's canals. Known as khlongs, the canals enable surface water to make its way to the sea and have long been a way of getting around Bangkok. On your journey glide past curious stilted houses and gleaming temples whilst old men fish and children frolic about on the water’s edge.

The boat drops you off within walking distance of Khao San Road, popular with backpackers and hippies. Late afternoon offers free time for you to enjoy the many bars, restaurants, street performers, market stalls and tailors - that will measure you up for a new suit, that line this vibrant road.

Bangkok – Sampran – Hua Hin. First thing this morning drive west of the capital to the Sampran Riverside, a traditional Thai hotel that has remained in the same family of generations. While the founders of the hotel originally grew roses within its grounds, today the current family has gone into organic farming. Here you will have the chance to explore the farm before collecting ingredients and cooking your lunch with a short class. Later continue on to Hua Hin where the rest of the day will be free to relax by the pool or on the beach.

The following day go canoeing on one of the local rivers and enjoy the natural surrounds of the jungle for one last time before starting your drive south to the beach resort of Krabi.
