Welcome to Bangkok! The land of smiles and where your Thailand dreams start. The capital city is buzzing with life, so time to kick start the next 9 days Muay Thai style! Fly in, and we’ll pick you from the airport and take you to our first hotel. Have the afternoon to chillax if you're knackered from the flight, connect to Wifi and update your friends on the sick surroundings or take some time to check out the city!

Day 2
Kickstart Our Tour - Muay Thai style!
Rise and shine, it’s an early one as we’re off to our local gym to learn Thailand’s national sport of Muay Thai! Yes get ready, we’re future Champions in the making. Work up a sweat, and kick away anyway lingering jet lag. You’ve got this! After mastering the ancient art of Muay Thai, we head back for a quick shower before we visit Bangkok’s famous temple Wat Pho! Yeah, it’s a beauty! After a busy day, we spend the evening relaxing and indulging in a traditional Thai massage. Getting out every knot from today’s class.. Or yesterday’s uncomfortable window seat on the flight. Same, same.

We’re going to Koh Phangan!
This morning, we're catching flights not feelings. Will we be sad to leave Bangkok? Of course but...beaches here we come! We catch a flight and ferry over to Koh Phangan where we’ll be spending the next few days. Koh Phangan is home to golden sandy beaches, some of the best sunsets in the world, so it’s only right we spend a few days here. Have the afternoon to do your thing and explore before taking part in a sunset yoga session. Perfect that cobra pose. Relaxation at its finest!
Day 4
Bike riding baby!
Good Morning! Today we’re exploring the island by bike! No lycra needed, lycra isn't big, and it’s not pretty. Our travel ninjas know the spots to visit! With such diversity, unspoilt natural beauty,rich, authentic living, Koh Phangan is so much more than Full Moon Parties. Time to explore! Get a feel for local life and immerse yourself in your tropical surroundings. As we ride along a mix of small roads and paths to some unexplored luscious green jungle trails of Phangan’s flattest stunning countryside. Passing coconut plantations, tropical farms and visiting local community villages. A Tru Thai experience like no other. We ride through the backstreets of Thongsala’s old town where traders and markets keep the town alive both day and night. After a wild day, we head to the beach to chill out and watch the sun go down.

Wonderland, No literally...
We’ve woken up in paradise. Enjoy the sunrise as we’ve got Thai-refic day ahead! After yesterday’s bike ride it’s time to head to Wonderland. Yes, Wonderland Resort, a luxurious spa retreat. The day is yours to tailor to yourself, from yoga classes and meditation to sound healing and dance class. It’s pure wellness heaven. Destress your day away in the sauna, relax and melt by the swimming pool. The resort is the definition of a holiday haven. Cucumbers on the eyes, bathrobes at the ready, wellness? WELL YES! We stay for breakfast, lunch and dinner so indulge, chill out and try the fruit shakes, they’re delicious.

HITT-ING UP KOH TAO!
The early bird catches the worm! Or a sunrise HIIT workout, one or the other. Today we’re up early to squat, thrust and jumping jack all over the place. Taking energy to the next level, Thai and stop us! Afterwards, we have some time to chill before checking out and catching the ferry over to Koh Tao! Koh Tao in translation means turtle island and is home to some of the most beautiful oceans and marine life in all of Thailand. The afternoon is yours to chill for a few hours before we head to Sairee beach for sunset paddleboarding, you know the phrase sailing into the sunset? Yeah, that’s us. Afterwards, we wind down with some cocktails or your favourite healthy shake on the beach.

Day 7
Sunrise, snorkelling & island hopping!
Grab a coffee as we’re up early for a sunrise pilates session. Time to stretch it all out TruFam, like the pilates pros you are… or not. Either way, it’s a great form of exercise and to get the endorphins flowing before we take you to the best spots on the islands, this time via boat. Oh yeah, James Bond-style. Spend the day snorkelling amongst the Nemos and Dorys of the ocean. You may even see a turtle or two! We trek up to the famous & jaw-dropping viewpoint of Koh Nang Yuan. The trek is around 30 mins and the perfect way to round off a bucket list ticking experience. We head back to the hotel where we wind down, exchange GoPro pics and prepare for our last full day together and trust us, it’s a sick one.

Our last full day is a juicy one! Our morning is spent taking a Muay Thai class. We practically mastered the sport, professionals. Just kidding, but you may have picked up a few moves from your first session, so put them to the test! Afterwards, we take a hike up to John Swuan viewpoint. The best viewpoint on Koh Tao, overlooking both the east and west coast of the island. VIEWPOINT GOALS. You’ve worked up a sweat so time to R-E-L-A-X! We head back down and enjoy the rest of the day unwinding at freedom beach. Yes, freedom. It’s our last night together, so we grab a group dinner before we say ciao, goodbye, au revior, Jur gan (that’s goodbye in Thai) and the night is ours for a taking, fancy cocktails at a beach bar? We’re there. Chill at the hotel? All good too. Whatever you fancy, your Travel Ninja is as flexible as an Olympic gymnast. Just go with the flow.
