ITINERARY

Touch down in Krabi and begin your adventure in the tropical beach town of Ao Nang. After checking into your hotel, spend the afternoon however you like—relax by the pool, enjoy a traditional Thai massage, grab a fresh coconut by the beach, or explore the lively streets of town.

As the sun sets, meet your group for a welcome dinner and your first night out in Thailand. We’ll head to the famous Ao Nang Night Market, where you’ll find incredible street food, tropical smoothies, local shopping, live music, and the vibrant energy Thailand is known for.

Tonight is all about settling in, making new friends, and getting excited for what's ahead. Over the next 9 days, you'll island-hop through turquoise waters, cruise aboard longtail boats, meet rescued elephants, zipline through the jungle, and experience the very best of Thailand.

This is the Thailand you came for.

Step aboard a traditional longtail boat and set out across Krabi’s most iconic seascapes, where towering limestone cliffs rise from emerald waters and hidden lagoons open into crystal-clear bays.

Throughout the day, we’ll explore Chicken Island, Koh Mor, and the famous sandbar walkway of Koh Tup. Swim over vibrant coral reefs, relax on the powder-white sands of Koh Poda, and cruise past the dramatic Railay coastline with its cliffs, caves, and hidden beaches.

Enjoy a fresh Thai lunch served by the water, surrounded by postcard views and your new travel community as you move through some of the most unforgettable scenery in Thailand.

Return to Ao Nang in the late afternoon and enjoy a free evening to unwind. Catch a legendary Krabi sunset from a beachfront lounge, sip poolside cocktails, stroll through a local market, or indulge in another relaxing Thai massage.

Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Longtail Boat Tour

Today is a full immersion into Krabi’s wild, untouched side—where lush jungle meets sheer limestone cliffs and every turn feels like a hidden discovery.

We begin with a peaceful kayaking journey through the Ao Thalane Mangrove Forest, one of Thailand's most beautiful natural sanctuaries. Paddle through calm emerald waters flanked by towering stone canyons, glide into quiet lagoons, and watch for wildlife like kingfishers, herons, and playful macaques along the shoreline.

From there, the energy shifts as we swap the paddles for handlebars. We’ll head deep into Krabi’s jungle trails for an exhilarating ATV adventure through rugged terrain, hidden valleys, and dramatic landscapes. Along the way, we’ll hit panoramic viewpoints—the kind of scenery that makes you pause, breathe, and take it all in with your travel community.

We wrap up the afternoon at Khao Thong Hill, a stunning hillside destination overlooking endless islands and valleys. This is golden hour at its absolute best—a slow, cinematic moment to relax with a refreshing drink, take incredible photos, and connect with the group as the sun sets over the Andaman coast.

Return to Ao Nang in the evening with plenty of time to unwind, enjoy dinner with your new friends, or grab a late-night Thai massage.

Included: Breakfast, Guided Ao Thalane Kayaking, Jungle ATV Adventure, Khao Thong Hill Sunset Entry

This morning, we leave the mainland behind and journey to one of Thailand’s most iconic tropical destinations—the Phi Phi Islands.

We cruise across the Andaman Sea, passing dramatic limestone cliffs and open turquoise waters as the islands come into view. The journey offers your first glimpse of the paradise that awaits.

Upon arrival, check into your island hotel and settle into life on Phi Phi. With no cars, crystal-clear water, and towering cliffs surrounding the island, this is where Thailand’s tropical beauty truly comes to life.

The rest of the day is yours to enjoy at your own pace. Swim in the warm turquoise sea, relax on the beach, explore the island village, or enjoy a drink by the water with your travel community.

Optional: For those looking for a little adventure, Phi Phi’s famous viewpoint hike is just a short walk from town. The climb rewards you with one of the most iconic views in Thailand—sweeping over turquoise bays, limestone cliffs, and the island’s dramatic coastline, especially beautiful at sunset.

As evening falls, we gather for dinner and enjoy Phi Phi’s laid-back island atmosphere—warm ocean air, beachfront restaurants, and the feeling of being somewhere truly unforgettable.

Included: Breakfast, Ferry to Phi Phi Island

Today is the Thailand experience you've seen in postcards.

Step aboard a traditional Thai longtail boat for a full island-hopping journey through the Phi Phi archipelago, one of the most famous seascapes in the world.

Cruise through turquoise waters surrounded by towering limestone cliffs as we visit Maya Bay, the cinematic lagoon made famous by The Beach, the Viking Cave with its dramatic cliffside backdrop, and Monkey Beach, where wild monkeys appear along the shore. Along the way, there will be time to swim, snorkel, relax on the boat, and take in the scenery at your own pace.

After the tour, enjoy a Thai lunch on Phi Phi Island. Take some time to wander the island at your own pace, relax on the beach, or soak in the laid-back atmosphere before boarding a speedboat back to the Krabi mainland. From there, we continue with a private transfer directly to the airport for our evening flight to Chiang Mai.

Included: Breakfast, Longtail boat tour, Speedboat transfer, Internal flight

Wake up in Chiang Mai, where Thailand shifts into a slower, more cultural rhythm—surrounded by mountains, ancient temples, and a city rooted in history and tradition.

We begin the day with a journey up Doi Suthep, Chiang Mai’s most iconic mountain temple. Take in sweeping views over the valley, explore the sacred grounds, and experience one of the most important spiritual sites in Northern Thailand. From there, we continue into the foothills to visit a traditional Hmong Hill Tribe village. Walk through the community, learn about local customs and craftsmanship, and enjoy a freshly prepared khao soi lunch at a family-run restaurant.

Return to Chiang Mai in the afternoon with time to relax, rest, or explore the Old City at your own pace. As evening arrives, we head into Chiang Mai’s famous night markets for dinner. Wander through glowing streets filled with street food, local crafts, and live music as you explore with your group and try northern Thai specialties. Later tonight, we make our way to a live Muay Thai fight night. Experience Thailand’s national sport up close as the arena comes alive with music, energy, and cheering locals. It’s an unforgettable first night in Northern Thailand.

Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Local guide, National Park & Temple entry fees, Muay Thai ticket

Today is one of Thailand's most unforgettable experiences.

We begin at a responsible elephant sanctuary, where you’ll spend the morning learning about elephant care, behavior, and conservation in a natural, ethical environment. Feed them sugarcane and bananas, walk alongside them through the forest, and watch as they roam freely through their protected valley home.

After your time with the elephants, enjoy a relaxed buffet lunch surrounded by nature before returning to Chiang Mai.

In the late afternoon, the experience continues with a hands-on Thai cooking class in the heart of the city. At your own cooking station, you’ll learn traditional techniques from a local chef as you prepare authentic dishes from scratch. From fresh curry pastes to classic stir-fries, you’ll cook alongside your group and enjoy everything you’ve made together in a lively, social setting.

It’s a full day of connection—with nature, and with Thai culture.

Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Responsible Elephant Sanctuary entry, Hands-on Thai cooking class & dinner

Today is your final full day in Chiang Mai—ending your Thailand adventure on a high.

We begin in the northern mountains with an unforgettable zipline experience through the jungle canopy. Soar across treetops, glide over deep valleys, and cross skywalks and rope bridges surrounded by lush rainforest. It’s an exhilarating way to experience Northern Thailand from above. After the adventure, enjoy a fresh jungle lunch before returning to Chiang Mai in the afternoon.

Once back in the city, take time to relax, refresh, or explore at your own pace before the final evening together. As night falls, we head into Chiang Mai’s famous Sunday Walking Street Market. Wander through glowing streets filled with handmade crafts, local souvenirs, and live performances, and sample northern Thai street food as the city comes alive one last time.

Included: Breakfast, Zipline Adventure, Sunday Market

Enjoy a relaxed morning with a final cup of smooth, locally grown northern specialty coffee or a last stroll through the historic Old City gates. Take some time to shop for hand-woven artisan souvenirs or just soak in the city’s vibrant, spiritual pulse one last time. You’re free to depart your accommodation at any time today, provided you follow the standard check-out window.

For those craving more adventure, your journey doesn't have to end here. Continue north into the artistic wonders of Chiang Rai or wind through the mountains to the bohemian valley of Pai—optional extensions that open a brand-new chapter of unforgettable experiences.

Over these 9 days, you’ve explored remote island paradises, trekked alongside majestic rescued giants, soared high above deep jungle valleys, and watched ancient cities come alive under the night markets. You have discovered the true magic, culture, and rhythm of Thailand. Here’s to your next adventure—Thailand has left its mark, and the world is still waiting.
