Full Moon Experience - 10 Day Trip

You came here for the culture, right? Well, today you’re gonna get it. After a relaxing morning by the pool, we’ll grab a Bangkok river taxi (or Longtail boat) and cruise down the Chao Phraya. The river and back canals are a great way to get a ‘behind the scenes’ look at this awe-inspiring city. After taking in the sights of the city, we will hit up two impressive and prestigious temples, Wat Arun and Wat Pho, where we'll learn a bit about Thai history, culture and religion before grabbing a traditional tuk-tuk back to the Hotel. In the evening, we can either hit up Khao San Road again, sample some of Bangkok's other nightlife, or have a chilled one!

This morning you'll have a free morning to do as you please. Like the Tru VIP that you are, you’ll be treated to a nice, relaxing massage, before being escorted with your entourage (aka the rest of the group) to the train station where we'll board the night train to our next destination. You can use the time on the train to get to know your group better, take in views of the Thai countryside, update your travel instagram, or just catch up on some sleep. When we arrive in the morning you're in for a treat, so sleep well, and dream of paradise, cos that’s where we're headed.

When we say this place is out of this world, we are not messing around. TruTravels have pulled through with this one! Think Jurassic park scenery without the dinosaurs but with a crystal clear lake in the centre of the national park. You will witness some of the most mind-blowing scenery you have ever seen as we cruise through the lake on the way to our floating resort. After checking into your own floating bungalow, spend the rest of the day kayaking, tanning, or just floating - we won't judge...that’s our kind of day.

Other than Khao Sok, this is probably the best place to wake up in the world. You’ll hear the sound of the waves gently lapping at the shore and the warmth of the suns rays beaming through your window. Push open the door, and you’ll see the turquoise water meeting the white sand and blue sky. However you choose to spend your last few hours in paradise on earth is fine with us, it’s your holiday after all. In the afternoon we’ll work off those rum and cokes with an introduction to Muay Thai, or Thai Boxing, Thailand’s national sport. After a shower and a dip in the pool back at our next resort, we’ll explore a bit of the more lively side of the island and maybe even hit up one of the full moon warm-up parties as we get ready for the big night.

You’ve seen the island from land, now it's time to see it from the sea. Think blue oceans, blue skies, green trees, grey mountains, white beaches and bronzed bodies. When we have had enough of the gorgeous views and good times above the ocean, we can take a dip with some snorkels and take in the out of this world scenery below the boat. After a sunset ride back to the hotel, we’ll freshen up and hit the beach for some dinner and perhaps a little boogie to shake off those sea legs. In the evening, head back to our accommodation for a dip, dinner and drinks.

Are you ready for the best day of your life courtesy of TruTravels? Well, you better get some zzz's in because tonight we're going big, like BIG BIG! Today we're going on an epic Island Road Trip before getting the party started for the best evening of the trip so far! In the evening, we'll meet in our hostel for the ultimate UV painting session to get us ready for The Full Moon Party. It’s legendary, it’s spectacular, and you couldn’t be with a better crew. We'll take you to all the best pre-drinking spots before hitting up The Full Moon Party. If you’re hardcore enough to make it to sunrise (It’s the best part) join us at the after-party which starts at 6am. You know the old saying...no rest for the wicked hey?

*Please note, The Full Moon Party is on a specific date each month so our activities can sometimes shuffle around, but don’t stress, you won’t miss anything!*

If you were dancing with us until the sun came up, then you’ll probably need today to rest up and get some sleep. Or if you’re really hardcore, then you might still even be partying. Either way, today is yours to do as you please. Enjoy the calm after the storm in the pool, in bed, exploring the island or taking another relaxing Thai massage on us. After the final sunset of our epic adventure in party paradise, we’ll go for one last group dinner as a group. All good things must come to an end, so let’s make sure the last night is one to remember.

The tour might be over, but the dream lives on!!! Unlike other companies who will forget about you at the end of the trip, you’re welcome to hang with us as long as you like. You’re part of the Tru Fam now! If you need help moving on somewhere else, then your guide will be happy to help sort everything you need. If you’re travelling for a while and need advice, or just want to hear a friendly voice, give us a call or come see us at any time.
