Start point
Bangkok, Thailand
Bangkok’s canals have long been synonymous with the local way of life. This is where residents have always congregated to buy fresh produce, food and other essential items for their homes. The Damnern Saduak Floating Market, situated on Thailand’s longest canal of the same name, is a slight exception to this norm. It was constructed not just to facilitate local commerce but also to open up a pathway to support trade and transportation between Thailand and China by connecting the Mae Klong River with the Chinese river ways.
Today, this historic floating market in Ratchaburi province, 100 km Southwest of Bangkok, sees thousands of travellers every day from around the world, to shop for unique souvenirs, savour delectable Thai snacks and immerse themselves in the humdrum of daily life in Thailand. Our half-day tour with a return transfer to your Bangkok hotel with an expert guide makes this experience visiting this iconic market memorable and comfortable at the same time. Operating every day, it allows ample ease for some solo exploration on the ground or a canal boat while indulging in some shopping along the way.

A 1.5-hour drive from Chiang Mai lies the Chiang Chill Elephant Sanctuary, an ethical haven that allows visitors to observe and learn about elephants without any exploitation or intrusion into the lives of these magnificent beings.
On this tour, guests accompany an expert local guide on a path through the forest to watch the elephants from a safe distance. During this walk, the guide will explain why visitors here aren’t allowed to interact with the elephants directly, and can instead observe them in their natural habitats, grazing and socialising without human disruptions.
Travellers learn about an elephant’s diet and help in their food preparation before digging into a lunch of delicious Thai vegetarian food on the elephant observation deck where they can also get a view of the elephants having their meals. Visit the Karen Cultural Centre after lunch to know the history and culture of the Karen community which lives nearby. Finish the epic day with an illuminating brainstorm session about how to spread the word about elephant conservation outside of Thailand.

What is bioluminescence you might ask! Well, some sea creatures can emit light and can be found in various forms in the Phang Nga Bay area. One of the most noteworthy examples is the bioluminescent plankton, a tiny organism that emits bright blue-green light due to changes in water temperature, nutrient availability, the presence of predators or other environmental stressors.
After departing from the pier, go for a sea canoe exploration at Phanak Island and Hong Island to see rock formations and hidden lagoons.
