Our first full day on tour and we're headed to the River Kwai! Before we head off to the river, we’ll do some shopping and not at just any old regular market, but a FLOATING one! Crazy right? We’re shopping via a long-tail boat. Grab a snack from a local vendor, or grab a fresh juice. Next, we’re off to Kanchanaburi! When we arrive, we'll get another boat and cruise down the River Kwai enjoying the sight of its iconic bridge (an insta-worthy moment for sure). It’s sunset o’clock and what a better place to watch the sunset than the bridge over River Kwai - can you tell this spot is one of our favourites? Get those poses ready for all the 10/10 shots you’re going to get. You’re welcome.

City - tick, floating markets - tick...now it's time to visit some waterfalls! Erawan Falls are just an hour away from Kanchanaburi is pretty much paradise. Imagine a 7-tier, crystal clear blue waterfall surrounded by lush greenery, sounds unreal right? We know TLC said don’t go chasing waterfalls but ya know, I think we can be excused with this once. Make sure you have your swimmers as you’ll want to take a dip. Don’t say we don’t spoil ya! We’ll have some lunch at the waterfalls then we head back to Kanchanaburi, where you can either chill by the pool or explore the town before we meet for dinner and maybe a few drinks...

Today you have the morning free before we hit the road again! So choose to spend this morning how you please, whether that’s by the pool or exploring the town. Next, we are off to Ayutthaya, an ancient capital city, if you’re looking to see culture & history, then you’re in the right place! We’ll hop on some bikes and cycle around the world heritage site, 10/10 views, we’ll also learn about the fascinating history of Ayutthaya and of course, the kingdom of Siam which is what Thailand used to be called! Then it's time to grab a bite to eat and board the night train to Chiang Mai! The train is comfortable, you get your own bed with pillows and covers, comfort is key! So it shouldn’t be too hard to get a decent night's sleep ready to take on a new place in the morning! Chiang Mai, we’re coming for you.

Did someone say TruExclusive? Hell yeah, we did! You won’t find this experience anywhere else. If you’re looking for an authentic Thai experience, THIS IS IT. We are off to do one of the most awesome activities in Northern Thailand, a trek through the jungle. The trek doesn’t require a high level of fitness, but it is a bit of a challenge SO beers will be very well-deserved afterwards! We’ll spend one night in a hill tribe village homestay so that you can experience what life is like for the many traditional hill tribes of Northern Thailand. Fall asleep to the sound of local wildlife, an experience in itself.

Freshen up in the clear waters after an insightful evening with the hill tribe, dry off and then we’re on our way back to Chiang Mai! Today's also the day we will get to see some Elephants! Animal welfare is extremely close to our hearts, and that's why we visit a dedicated elephant rehabilitation sanctuary. The elephants here are free to roam and not here for the entertainment of tourists. We visit to educate ourselves on one of Thailand’s most popular native animals but to also redistribute funds to programmes that do good. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, a memory you’ll cherish forever, no doubt!

Starting at the biggest cave in Thailand, Lod Cave, we’ll hike through the main chambers and then take a bamboo raft along the river which runs through the cave (depending on season and accessibility). It’s like something out of a movie, incredible stuff! It’s now time to give your muscles a break, as we head to the hot springs which are situated in the jungle and are heated by geothermal activity. Take a dip in the crystal clear water, treat yourself to a clay mask and just have the ultimate relaxation session in the warm temperatures. We’ll then head to the waterfall nearby with an amazing view! Who needs a waterpark when we have one better, a waterfall with a natural slide? We’ll finish this incredible day at Pai Canyon which means even more amazing views of the surrounding mountains and jungle, and even better, we’ll be there at sunset! So get your pics and take in the insane view before heading back to Pai town. In the evening we’ll head to a nice restaurant and a few chilled bars where we can mingle with other backpackers too.

Most of Thailand's delicious food comes from the North, so there’s no better way than to learn from the masters themselves, right? First, we’ll head to the market where our guides and teachers will show us how to select the freshest & tastiest ingredients. Now it’s time for us to turn those ingredients we picked into some tasty meals! Don’t fret, you’ll be shown how to cook the recipes step by step! Now for the best bit, tasting what you’ve cooked, so make sure you’re paying attention when cooking! An amazing experience, and you’ll get to go home with new recipes and new skills!

This is an old excavation site, where they would dig out sand for buildings etc. However, now it is a man-made lagoon which has turned into an adult playground, we LOVE to see it! There are countless slides, floating chairs to lay in, tubes and then for the brave-hearted...have a go at cliff jumping, deep water soloing or climbing on their climbing wall. Take your pick!

We're going on an epic island road trip and we will see some incredible waterfalls, beaches and viewpoints on the way - get your cameras ready! 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. TruCrew that is. We 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!?

*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!*

It’s been a wild few days and today is set aside for recovery. Chill, recharge, rehydrate. It was a big night, so the only thing we have planned today is a relaxing Thai massage and possibly winding down in the evening with a film at a local bar. If you were one of the crazy 10/10 party animals who only just made it in for breakfast, spend the day in bed, catch up on some sleep or grab an amazing 7/11 toastie. The ultimate hangover cure. However, you’re feeling we’ve got options for you to have the perfect post-full-moon-party day!

It’s our least favourite day of the tour. The day we say goodbye! We don’t want you guys to leave. Spend the morning having a chilled one before checking out. Whether you need to sort a lift to the airport or just need one last group hug your TruLeader is here for you. It’s been an epic 23 days. Will we see each other again? Of course...we’re family now.

WHERE WE STAY

bangkok

We start our Northern Thailand Adventure in Bangkok!! This hotel is located right next to the famous Khao San Road, so it's right in the centre of all the fun. This hotel is also the perfect place to relax after your long journey or to nurse a hangover with a dip in the pool, either at your hotel or the sister hotel. If you like to get stuck in and explore, tourist sights like The Grand Palace are so close.

 

*Please note all accommodation is subject to change- but it will always be great and of an equal standard! If you would like to confirm the accommodation for your trip please contact the sales team at info@trutravels.com*

kanchanaburi

Our next stop is Kanchanaburi. This hotel is in a peaceful location, with a great pool right by the River Kwai. The ideal spot for escaping the city vibes of Bangkok. With a great bar and restaurant area overlooking the water, you won't want to leave!

chiang mai

Further up north we go! Next stop, Chiang Mai. Another great accommodation with a lovely pool! It's also the perfect location being in the middle of the old town, there's lots of shops, cafes and resturants to explore - what could be better!

pai

The last stop on our amazing 2-week tour is Pai, our favourite Thai hippie town and our chosen resort is in the centre of the fun. It's a short walk from the lively Walking Street and very close to Pai's historical Temple and all of the other attractions Pai has to offer. It's also run by an amazing local family who always make the experience in Pai super special. When you're not exploring Pai, you can sunbathe on the sun terrace, take a dip in the pool or there's the option of a soothing massage!

khao sok

Ok, welcome to paradise! Sleeping in floating bungalows is everyone's DREAM, right!? Imagine waking up surrounded by calm waters that are crystal clear and an idyllic blue... well, that's what you get at the floating resort in Khao Sok National Park! Each of the 30 bungalows has its own veranda, perfect to lie on and watch the jungle night sky. There's also a bar area to get your beer fix and a chill space for the evenings.

bottle beach

Welcome to Bottle Beach and your own little beach hut overlooking the ocean. That's right, this accommodation is pretty special. Not only do you get to stay in a beach hut, but the beach is secluded and we pretty much get it allll to ourselves. So chill in your hammock and take in the sights, grab a cocktail and wait for the beach bonfire to start!

koh phangan

After our night on Bottle Beach, staring up at the stars as we sleep by a beach bonfire, we move onto our second Koh Phangan destination. What you wouldn't expect is that we move from one secluded beach to the next. Our hotel has its own private beach!! Unreal, right? So you can chill, sip on a cocktail and soak up all the good vibes either in the gorgeous pool, by the bar or on the secluded beach.
