Places Visited : Bangkok, Sukhothai, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai

This 2-week trip explores Bangkok in depth before venturing north to the ruins of ancient Thai capitals, Sukhothai and Si Satchanalai. The second week focuses on Chiang Mai and the mountains of the Golden Triangle region, where the borders of Myanmar and Laos converge. You’ll have opportunities to visit minority villages near the frontiers of Myanmar and Laos, watch wood carvers and potters at work in the backstreets of Chiang Mai, and savour the exotic views over Thailand’s lost heartland on the central plains.

Remember, this trip can be personalised to suit your travel needs - we can tailor everything from hotel, travel type, duration and more.
