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.

Very happy with tour. Really liked small group of 16 or less and how CEO sorted dinner every night. Patrick has a very pleasant easy going personality and treated us to various food samples along the way.

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip with g adventures. It gave me a perfect balance of feeling secure and confident in a tour setting whilst having free time to explore. The CEO was wonderful and friendly! I will definitely be doing another one

Overall I had a wonderful time. The group was good and our CEO was the best. I loved the mix of land and water. I love the variety of things to do and the things that we did just for the experience like the night train.

Had the best time in a beautiful country. Meeting such lovely people, amazing experiences and this is mainly due to Puy being such an incredible CEO.

This trip provided a wide range of adventures -- not just history, temples, jungle, or beaches -- all of it! Unique but comfortable accommodations and almost every form of vehicle for travel made it special.

This was my 4th tour with GAdventures and the absolute best experience. The tour consisted of a wonderful mix of culture, and relaxation time in the islands. Our group was a mix of ages, the youngest being 25 and the oldest over 70
