Full Moon Experience

So you’re here! Welcome to Thailand! Check into your accommodation and meet the rest of the group. Day 1 is free, so rest up, explore the area, get a massage, get a beer, get some delicious street food - you get the picture, there's loads to do. In the evening, we’ll head to one of our favourite restaurants for delicious food and the start of lifelong friendships.

*Please note, The Full Moon Party is on a specific date each month so our activities can sometimes shuffle around, but don’t worry, you won’t miss anything! If you would like to confirm the dates of any activities please get in touch with info@trutravels.com :)

After a relaxing morning by the pool, we’ll grab a Bangkok river taxi (or Longtail Boat) and cruise down the Chao Phraya. The rivers are a great way to get a ‘behind the scenes’ look at this amazing city. After taking in the sights of the city, we will visit two impressive temples, Wat Arun and Wat Pho. We'll learn about Thai history, culture, and religion before hopping into a traditional tuk-tuk back to the hotel. In the evening, we can either hit up Khao San Road again or have a chilled one!

This morning, you'll have a free morning to do as you please. We'll have a relaxing massage before heading to the train station where we'll board the night train to our next destination. When we arrive in the morning you're in for a treat, so sleep well, and dream of paradise, because that’s where we're headed.

When we say this place is out of this world, we are not messing around. Think Jurassic park scenery, without the dinosaurs, but with a crystal clear lake in the centre of the national park. You will witness some of the most mind-blowing scenery you have ever seen as we cruise through the lake on the way to our floating resort. After checking into your own floating bungalow, spend the rest of the day kayaking, tanning, or just floating - we won't judge...that’s our kind of day.

After an early start, some world-class views from your bungalow door, and some breakfast, it’s time to head to Koh Phangan. This island is famous for its parties as well as it’s beauty, but if you come here and just experience the nightlife, you’re doing it wrong. We're heading to Bottle Beach which is an exclusive little beach where we'll be staying in bungalows right on the water. Dreamy right?

Wake up and hear the sound of the waves gently lapping at the shore. Push open the door, and you’ll see the turquoise water meeting the white sand and blue sky. In the afternoon we’ll work off those rum and cokes with an introduction to Muay Thai, Thailand’s national sport. After a shower and a dip in the pool back at our next resort, we’ll explore a bit of the more lively side of the island and maybe even hit up one of the full moon warm-up parties.

You’ve seen the island from land, now it's time to see it from the sea. Think blue oceans, blue skies, green trees, grey mountains and white beaches. When we have had enough of the gorgeous views and good times above the ocean, we can take a dip with some snorkels and take in the out of this world scenery below the boat. After a sunset ride back to the hotel, we’ll freshen up and hit the beach for some dinner and perhaps a little boogie to shake off those sea legs.

Today we're going on an epic Island Road Trip before getting the party started for the best evening of the trip so far! In the evening, we'll meet in our hostel for the ultimate UV painting session to get us ready for The Full Moon Party. It’s legendary, it’s spectacular, and you couldn’t be with a better group. We'll take you to all the best pre-drinking spots before hitting up The Full Moon Party. If you’re hardcore enough to make it to sunrise (It’s the best part) join us at the after-party which starts at 6am.

*Please note, The Full Moon Party is on a specific date each month so our activities can sometimes shuffle around, but don’t worry, you won’t miss anything!*

If you were dancing with us until the sun came up, then you’ll probably need today to rest up and get some sleep. Or if you’re really hardcore, then you might still even be partying. Either way, today is yours to do as you please. Enjoy the calm after the storm in the pool, in bed, exploring the island or taking another relaxing Thai massage on us. After the final sunset of our epic adventure in party paradise, we’ll go for one last group dinner as a group. All good things must come to an end, so let’s make sure the last night is one to remember.

The tour might be over, but the dream lives on!!! Unlike other companies who will forget about you at the end of the trip, you’re welcome to hang with us as long as you like. You’re part of the Tru Fam now! If you need help moving on somewhere else, then your guide will be happy to help sort everything you need. If you’re travelling for a while and need advice, or just want to hear a friendly voice, give us a call or come see us at any time.
