Guided Small Group Adventure Tour
Duration: 14 days/13 nights

With a fascinating culture, beautiful natural landscapes, and some of the tastiest street food on the globe, Thailand is an adventurer's heaven. Embark on this 14-day tour along the country's east coast to get a unique glimpse into this Southeast Asian country with some additional northern Thailand highlights too. Explore the smaller "klong" canals of the Chao Phraya river, stay overnight in a traditional floating raft house in Kanchanaburi, and tour the historic Bridge on the River Kwai. Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to relax on Thailand's tropical sands, snorkel through unbelievably warm water, and bond with your travel mates at beach bars in between.
