So How Does It Work?
You can build your own trip depending on how adventurous (or not) you are, but before you decide what adventures to take remember the most fun happens when you do things you really can not do at home!
Week One
Pick up from the airport and then a comprehensive intro week. During this week you meet other group members and get to know Thai customs and culture and learn a bit about the language. During this week you get taken to lots of interesting places, which also helps bond you with the other group members. It is really easy travel, with airport pick ups and all transport, accommodation and food taken care of is you are a first time traveller it really takes away that just landed: feeling a little stranded aspect of travelling. Feedback from previous tours show that with average groups sizes up to 20 people, people always make new friends in the group.

Buddism and Culture Option
Trekking
Elephant Conservation
Week Three
Transfer to Koh Tao for plenty of dreamy tropical beach time and superb nightlife. You will stop off in Bangkok for one night and two days as well. Not such a beach bum? You can stay an extra week on the mainland and pick another option from the second week for €325 or £300 extra.
