Have you heard of the movie The Bridge on the River Kwai? Today, we’re visiting the River Kwai! Before heading to the river, we stop for some shopping, and not just anywhere, but at a floating market. Amazing, right? Once we get to the market by longtail boat, it’s off to Kanchaburi.
Bridge over the River Kwai
When we arrive, we take another boat and go down the River Kwai, enjoying the view of the bridge. It’s sunset time, and what better place to watch the sunset than the bridge over the River Kwai? Get ready to pose for all the 10/10 photos you’re going to get.

Imagine a 7-magnitude waterfall, a crystal blue, surrounded by lush vegetation. It doesn’t look real, does it? Erawan Waterfalls, just one hour away from Kanchanaburi, is basically your imaginary paradise. This is what you want to see on TV, not in real life, but this is real life. Make sure you have your bathing suit, because you want to take a bath. Listen to this: there are 7 levels, and you can take a bath. We must stay hydrated and energetic after all these walks and swimming!

You will have a free morning before setting out. You can choose whether to spend time in the swimming pool or exploring the city. Then, we will go to Ayutthaya, an ancient capital full of culture and history! We’ll ride bicycles and visit world heritage sites, which will provide us with breathtaking scenery. We also learn about the fascinating history of Ayutthaya and, of course, the fascinating history of Thailand, which was once called the Kingdom of Thailand.

After that, eat something and then take a night train to Chiang mai. The train is very comfortable, with a bed, pillow, and blanket for each, so it’s not too difficult to have a good sleep preparation and find a new place tomorrow morning. Chiang Mai, here we come!

Now, it’s time to visit the most famous and perhaps most beautiful temple in Chiang Mai, Wat Phra That Doi Suthep. The temple is located high on the mountain, therefore, you’ll have a panoramic view of the city. Trust us, you’ll feel on top of the world, literally.
Have a free afternoon to do whatever you want, like taking photos of the scenic view or leisurely enjoying the meal.

Today, you will participate in a fascinating activity that you’ll find nowhere else. This is considered one of the most popular activities in northern Thailand – jungle hiking. Hiking does not require high-level fitness, but it’s a bit challenging. We will stay overnight at a homestay in a village so you can experience the lives of many tribes in the traditional mountainous areas of northern Thailand, and you will see that their lives have not changed much for generations. You will expect to see a variety of nature and wildlife and possibly even one or two waterfalls and incredible scenes during the hiking trip!

Enjoy your morning in the jungle before it’s time to head back to Chiang Mai. Today, you will experience something more interesting: transferring bamboo rafts! We’ll float down the river, where you’ll even have the chance to see elephants— what more could you ask for? It’s a unique experience, a memory you’ll cherish forever, no doubt!
Once back in Chiang Mai, we’ll rest in time to continue our adventure in the north tomorrow!

Chiang Mai is considered the adventure capital of Thailand. In this time visiting Chiang Mai, we will experience one of our favourite activities and very popular among tourists – ziplining through the jungle! This will make your heart beat faster and give you adrenaline, and you are actually flying in the jungle while looking up from above (if you dare)!

Plus some suspension bridges and slides, this is how to experience the jungle in a way you can never walk! Of course, once you make all your friends and family jealous, you can thank us later. This is truly an unforgettable experience!

After a few days experiencing the sense of excitement, this morning you will have time to relax, read a book, enjoy a cocktail, and do whatever you like. In the afternoon, grab your bags because we will board a bus to the hippie town of Pai!
Pai Town, Thailand
Chiang Mai, a popular destination for backpackers, is only 3 hours away, and we can understand why! It is brimming with cool retro bars, market stalls, delicious food, and wonderful people from all walks of life.
Included: Transportation, Accommodation, English speaking guide, Visit fees, Meals: Breakfast, Lunch.
Today we’ll explore the highlights of Pai and the surrounding area. Starting with Thailand’s largest cave, Lod Cave, we’ll hike through the main chambers, then take a bamboo raft along the river that runs through the cave (depending on the season and accessibility). It’s like something out of a movie—amazing stuff!
Tham Lod Caves
Now it’s time to give your muscles a rest as we head to the hot springs located in the jungle and heated by geothermal activity. Immerse yourself in the pristine water, indulge in a clay mask, and relish the ultimate relaxation in the warm temperatures.
We’ll finish this incredible day at Pai Canyon, which means even more incredible views of the surrounding mountains and jungle—and even better, we’ll be there at sunset! So take your photos and enjoy the incredible view before heading back to Pai town.
Included: Transport, Accommodation, English-speaking guide, Visit fees, Meals: Breakfast, Lunch.
Today is yours to spend as you please: relax by the pool or, if you’re a bit hungover, take a nap. Spend your day lounging, swimming, playing a few games, or reading a good book! The choice is yours.
Included: Accommodation, Meals: Breakfast
This morning, it’s time to head back to Chiang Mai! We hope you’re ready to become Thailand’s newest chef, because we’re heading to a cooking school to learn some traditional Thai dishes and try making them ourselves. Most of the delicious Thai food comes from the north, so what’s better than learning from the masters themselves?
Chiang Mai Cooking Class
First, we’ll head to the market where our guides and teachers will show us how to choose the freshest and tastiest ingredients—they have that inside knowledge. Now, it’s time to turn those ingredients we’ve chosen into delicious meals. You’ll be guided step by step through the recipes! Now for the best part, tasting what you’ve cooked, so make sure you pay close attention while cooking. A fantastic experience, and you’ll go home with new recipes and skills!
Included: Transportation, Accommodation, English-speaking guide, Meals: Breakfast, Lunch.
We all know the Grand Canyon, but do you know Chiang Mai’s own Grand Canyon? Well, if you don’t, don’t worry, because you’re about to find out! It’s an old excavation site, where sand was extracted for construction, etc. Today, it is a man-made lagoon that serves as an adult playground.
Grand Canyon in Chiang Mai
There are countless slides, floating chairs to rest, tubes, and for the bravest, try rope jumping, deep water soloing, or climbing on their rock climbing wall. Make your choice! There’s a restaurant on site, so we can have lunch, refresh, and revitalize!
