Best of Thailand Family Holiday

Bring the family along on a 15-day adventure that covers the very best of Thailand. Start in Bangkok, experiencing its quieter side on a visit to Wat Pho, one of the six most important temples in the country, and a ride along the city’s famous khlongs (canals). Learn about Kanchanaburi’s history, swim in waterfall pools at Erawan National Park and meet rescued elephants at a sanctuary near Chiang Mai. You’ll be able to meet locals and get a glimpse at their lifestyles during visits to rural villages, spot wildlife in Khao Sok National Park and head out on a longtail boat on Cheow Lan Lake. Kick back and relax with free time in Krabi, then wrap up your family adventure on the pristine beaches of Phuket.You and your family will visit several temples on this trip, which means covering up arms and shoulders as per the local custom. A light scarf is a great idea for covering shoulders and arms when it’s hot.The weather in Thailand varies seasonally. Be prepared to get sweaty, and for the occasional rainstorm which may require a change of plans.Your overnight train journey (Day 4) is quite long (approx. 12 hours). Make the most of it by checking out the scenery and chatting with other families. There's nothing quite like waking up on a sleeper train in a new and exciting destination. While bedding is supplied some families choose to bring their own sleep sheets.
