Itinerary
Day 1 — Arrive in Bangkok
Your Thai adventure begins the moment you land. Your private guide will be waiting to welcome you and transfer you comfortably to your hotel. The rest of the day is yours — shake off the jet lag with a gentle stroll, sip your first Thai iced tea, and let Bangkok slowly reveal herself to you.
In the evening, we’ll gather for a welcome dinner — a chance to get to know your guide, enjoy your first authentic Thai feast, and raise a toast to the days ahead.
Overnight: Bangkok | Meals: Dinner (Welcome Dinner, alcoholic beverages not included)
Day 2 — Bangkok Temples, Thai Silk & Canal Life
Step inside the Grand Palace, one of Southeast Asia’s most breathtaking landmarks. Within its grounds, the Queen Sirikit Museum of Textiles reveals the artistry of Thai silk — intricate weaving, delicate embroidery, and royal garments that showcase generations of Thai craftsmanship in every thread.
Continue to Wat Pho to see the magnificent Reclining Buddha — a gilded figure so vast it seems to fill the entire hall. Cross the river to Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn, whose porcelain-mosaic towers shimmer beautifully in the afternoon light.
End the day with a long-tail boat ride through Bangkok’s historic canals, with a stop to capture a memorable photo with the iconic Big Buddha along the waterway.
Overnight: Bangkok | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch
Day 3 — Railway Market & Your Choice of Waterside Experience
Start the day at the Maeklong Railway Market, where vendors calmly fold their awnings as a full-sized train rolls right through their stalls — one of those only-in-Thailand moments that never gets old.
Then choose how you’d like to spend the rest of your day:
Option A — Fishing Community by Boat
Hop aboard a long-tail boat to a riverside fishing community that no road can reach. Glide through quiet mangrove forest and plant a young mangrove tree of your own, then visit the local farms where cockles, mussels, and oysters are raised. Lunch is served right here — a fresh seafood feast prepared by the fishing families themselves, as local as it gets.
Best for: travelers who love authentic local life, nature, and community experiences.
Option B — Damnoen Saduak Floating Market
Drift through the colorful lanes of Damnoen Saduak Floating Market by boat, where vendors paddle past with fresh fruit, noodles, and sweets piled high on their wooden boats. Sample local snacks straight from the water, browse handmade souvenirs, and soak up one of Thailand’s most iconic scenes, followed by a Thai lunch nearby.
Best for: first-time visitors who want Thailand’s classic postcard moments.
Overnight: Bangkok | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch
Day 4 — Fly to Chiang Mai · Doi Suthep
A short flight carries you north into the mountains. Chiang Mai is cooler, quieter, and deeply cultural — a city that rewards those who slow down.
Lunch is a Northern Thai classic: khao soi, a rich coconut curry noodle soup topped with crispy noodles — the dish Chiang Mai is famous for.
This afternoon, head up to Doi Suthep, one of Northern Thailand’s most revered temples, with sweeping views over the valley below.
Overnight: Chiang Mai | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch (Khao Soi)
Day 5 — Doi Inthanon National Park
Journey to the roof of Thailand. Doi Inthanon National Park is home to the country’s highest peak at 2,565 meters above sea level — where cloud forest trails and the spectacular Wachirathan Waterfall make for a day that feels a world apart.
Walk the Ang Ka Nature Trail — a peaceful boardwalk through ancient, mist-wrapped forest — and breathe in air that smells nothing like the city. Lunch is at the Doi Inthanon Royal Project, where fresh highland vegetables, fruits, and trout are grown as part of a royal initiative supporting the local hill communities.
Then wind down through a Karen hilltribe village, where life moves at its own quiet pace. Sit with the locals, watch daily life unfold, and sip a cup of handmade coffee grown right here in the highlands — perhaps the best cup you’ll have in Thailand.
Overnight: Chiang Mai | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch (Royal Project)
Day 6 — Elephant Sanctuary & Thai Massage
This is often the day guests remember most. At our carefully chosen ethical sanctuary, you’ll walk alongside rescued elephants, learn their stories, and observe them roaming freely — no rides, no performances. Just a quiet, genuine encounter that stays with you. Lunch is served at the sanctuary, surrounded by nature.
In the afternoon, let a traditional Thai massage do the rest.
Overnight: Chiang Mai | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch (at the sanctuary)
Day 7 — Fly to Krabi
A short flight south and suddenly everything changes — the air is salt-tinged, the horizon opens up, and the Andaman Sea stretches out ahead.
The rest of the day is yours to settle into your resort, take a first swim, or watch the sun go down over the limestone cliffs.
Overnight: Krabi | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch
Day 8 — Kayaking at Khlong Root · Thai Cooking Class
Paddle through crystal-clear freshwater canals lined with lush tropical forest — the same waterways used as a filming location for Jurassic World Rebirth. The submerged trees, the emerald water, the stillness — it’s the kind of morning that sneaks up on you.
In the afternoon, roll up your sleeves for a hands-on Thai cooking class: pounding fresh curry paste, balancing sweet and sour, and plating dishes you’ll be proud to recreate at home. Then sit down together and enjoy the meal you’ve just made — the most satisfying dinner of the trip.
Overnight: Krabi | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner (from cooking class)
Day 9 — Phi Phi Islands & Maya Bay
Some places live up to the photographs. Phi Phi Islands is one of them.
Spend the day island-hopping by speedboat across the Andaman Sea — beginning at Phi Phi Leh, where Maya Bay’s towering limestone cliffs and white sand shore need no introduction, followed by the legendary Pileh Lagoon and Viking Cave. End the day at Bamboo Island — one of the most beautiful spots in the region for swimming and simply soaking in the view, before heading back to Krabi as the sun begins to lower.
Overnight: Krabi | Meals: Breakfast, Lunch
Day 10 — Free Day in Krabi
No agenda. No schedule. Just Krabi.
Sleep in, find a hidden beach, explore the night market, or do absolutely nothing at all. Your private guide and vehicle remain available throughout the day, whenever you’re ready.
As the sun sets on your final evening, join us for a farewell dinner — a relaxed celebration of everything you’ve seen, tasted, and shared together across Thailand.
Overnight: Krabi | Meals: Breakfast, Dinner (Farewell Dinner, alcoholic beverages not included)
Day 11 — Departure
One last breakfast before your private transfer to Krabi International Airport.
Thailand has a way of staying with you — in the food you’ll try to recreate, the temples you’ll still be thinking about, and the elephants you’ll never quite forget.
Meals: Breakfast
