Very few people actually stay here and experience it as you will. It’s almost impossible to describe how cool this place is. You can play volleyball, go for a swim, kayak, hike to the viewpoint or frolic on the beach with one of the friendly resort dogs. In the evening, we’ll have dinner on the beach (obviously) followed by some cocktails next to a beach campfire with our own private fire show.

Step into the shoes of a local Mango/Rice farmer and learn what it takes to harvest everyone’s favourite tropical fruit. You’ll even get to enjoy the fruits of your labour. See what we did there? Fruits of your labour. No? Oh, forget it. After that it’s time to join our local guide in his family home - you can't get more special than that!

Starting the trip on a high, we’re sightseeing the capital by water- yeah you read that right! We’ll be cruising along Chao Phraya River before exploring some of the most famous temples in Thailand- Wat Arun & Wat Pho, where you’ll certainly get plenty insta worthy shots! The rest of the day is for you to explore and get lost in the craziness of this beautiful city until we meet again in the evening to grab some delicious food and dance the night away with your new TruFam! We get it, the struggle is real so we’ll spend our second day relaxing, chilling, having a great time (if you know, you know). It’s time to destress with a traditional Thai massage before we travel on an overnight train to the stunning Khao Sok National Park located in the southern part of Thailand!

Picture low clouds floating over the limestone mountains surrounding the emerald green lake.. Sounds dreamy right? We’ll spend the day floating around, kayaking or simply relaxing by the lake before heading back to the floating bungalows where we’ll stay the night and be treated to an incredible Thai buffet dinner! And if things couldn’t get any better, the next day we’ll be off to one of our favourite beaches in the world, Bottle beach for the most epic TruExclusive experience! We’ll play volleyball, go for a swim or a kayak, hike to an incredible viewpoint and end the day with dinner on the beach (obviously) followed by one too many cocktails by a campfire with our own private fire show.. Could it get any better than this? No, probably not.

Enjoy a lazy morning, sleep in, relax at the beach, trek through the jungle, or do whatever tickles your fancy but make sure to recharge those batteries before it's time to work up a major sweat… You know what’s coming! We’re headed to a local gym, where we’ll get the opportunity to practise the ancient art of Muay Thai, Thailand’s national sport. We’ll take the ring before checking into our new home where we can freshen up, relax and test out all the incredible bars and restaurants for the next few days! We’ll live our best pirate life on our very own private boat trip, as we sail around the coast of the island, check out some incredible sea life and catch some rays with a drink or two in hand with tunes playing all day long! We’ll even stop for some lunch before heading back just in time to watch yet another magical sunset and dance the night away for one last time in Koh Phangan.

Wave goodbye to the wonderful island of Koh Phangan, and say hello to its gorgeous little neighbour Koh Tao. An incredible island that’s bursting with nature, full of coconut farms, fishing villages and that’s most known for its unbelievable diving spots, beautiful beaches and laid back lifestyle. Once we arrive, we check in to our hotel near Sairee Beach, which is now lined with cool little restaurants and beach bars (and plenty of dive schools of course). We’ll spend the afternoon relaxing by the pool, exploring the town or chilling on the beach before we hit some of the bars and see where the night takes us! The next day we get to see what all the fuss is about with the snorkelling and scuba diving in Koh Tao, we’ll even get to visit a beautiful island called Koh Nang Yuan. And to make things even better, snorkelling gear, lunch and drinks on the boat will be on us! However, If you’d like to arrange a scuba diving session instead then speak to your Travel Ninja or another one of the Tru Crew in advance, so that they can sort it out for you! We’ll then head over to one of the island's nice restaurants for dinner where we’ll shell-abrate with a few beers (or cocktails, even waters if you prefer) at one of the many little bars lining Sairee Beach. On our last day in this little paradise we’ve got options.. You can join us in Tanote Bay where we can arrange a jam-packed day with some extreme activities or you can simply spend the day in bed until we check out and begin our journey to the next destination.. It’s completely up to you!

We can trek up to the viewpoint, wander around the town, chill on the beach with a cocktail in hand, enjoy the lively nightlife and most importantly, head to some beach parties that often go on into the early hours. Whatever it is that you do, you know it’s going to be epic! We’ll spend some time in Maya Bay (iykyk) where you’ll walk in Leo Dicaprio's footsteps for the day! Of course we’ll do some more snorkelling, visit the Viking cave and even head to Monkey beach (yes that’s a place) before heading back while watching yet another stunning sunset from the boat. Living the best life! Moving onto the final stop.. Phuket (no we didn’t just swear). Here we'll stay near Patong Beach where there’s sooo much for you to do so have a little chill, explore and prepare yourself as we get ready to spend our last evening in one of the most epic countries in SouthEast Asia! Let’s end our Thailand experience on a high before we head to the next destination that is Cambodia!

 

Please note: The National Tourism Department of Thailand has announced Maya Bay will be shut for conversation and preservation in August-September 2025. If your tour is during this time we will instead take you to Bamboo Beach or another amazing beach nearby!

We’re starting our second day in Cambodia on a high with yet another TruExclusive! This time, we’re hopping in a tuk tuk and driving through the bustling streets of Siem Riep for an incredible cultural experience. We’re stepping into the shoes of a local Mango/Rice farmer to learn what it takes to harvest everyone’s favourite tropical fruit (if in season).
