Days including air or 12 Days Bangkok/Bangkok
On this incredible journey to Thailand,
experience Thailand’s culture, villages, history, and religion—the
vacation of a lifetime! Begin your trip in Bangkok, Thailand’s capital
city. Your sightseeing tour starts with a boat ride through the klongs,
Bangkok’s canals, to see the everyday way of life and traditional Thai
culture as you pass family homes and temples. See the Temple of the
Dawn, whose 260-foot-tall spire has become identified with Bangkok, as
well as the Grand Palace and Emerald Buddha Temple. Depart Bangkok for
a glimpse into local life with a longtail boat ride through the canals
of the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market; witness small flat boats
expertly paddled by ladies ready to stop and bargain at a moment’s
notice. Next stop: Kanchanaburi to see the Bridge on the River Kwai,
Tiger Temple (a sanctuary and conservation center for Indochinese
Tigers), Cemetery of the Allied Prisoners, and a ride on the
Thailand-Burma Railway. Then, head to Ayutthaya and visit shrines and
temples typical of ancient Thai religious architecture. On the way to
Chiang Mai, stop at the Sukhothai Historical Park, a UNESCO World
Heritage Site. In Chiang Mai, rise early to witness and participate in
the almsgiving ceremony, a very special Thai custom. Take a boat ride
on the Kok River and visit Baan Mai, a silk- and sa paper-making
village. Drive up a winding mountain road to visit the White Hmong
People, one of northern Thailand’s Hill Tribes, to witness life in the
village. Visit an elephant camp and ride an elephant before heading to
Ban Thaton to visit the Paduang Long-Necked Women. Fly back to Bangkok
and enjoy leisure time to explore and tour the city on your own. You’ll
arrive home with lots of stories and photos from this amazing Thailand
vacation.
