Excellent experience in Bangkok
Ying was our guide in Bangkok. She was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. She knew exactly how to move us through crowds quickly so that we could see all we wanted to say and made good recommendations for other things we were interested in. I would not hesitate to recommend Ying or anyone that helped us at Asia highlights More

Excellent travel advisor, itinerary and tour guides
Miss Tanny, our guide in Bangkok, was personable and very patient. She kept us informed of the day's activities and kept us entertained with her sense of humor. Miss Lisa, our Phuket guide, was very polite and soft spoken. The young people in our group relate well with her. More

Journey Route
Itinerary in Detail
Welcome to Bangkok! Your guide and driver will greet you at the airport and drive you to your hotel.
The rest of the day is free for you to adjust to the jet lag or wander around your hotel.
You will have two free days to explore the island Koh Samui.
Start your day by visiting the magnificent Wat Pho, which is home to the most famous reclining Buddha. Buddhist monks in orange robes gather there for their daily ritual — find a seat on the ground and immerse yourself in the pious chanting.
Head to the iconic Grand Palace, then hop on a long-tail boat and cruise to photogenic Wat Arun to see the fascinating structure.
Savor your lunch and then spend the rest of the day wandering around the bustling Chinatown to enjoy a glimpse of old Bangkok.
The Grand PalaceTake our private transfer to the airport and fly to Trat. Upon your arrival, your private guide and driver will transfer you to the pier to take the ferry boat to the island of Koh Chang. The hotel staff will pick you up from the pier and transfer you to your hotel. Spend the rest of the day exploring on your own.
Koh ChangYou will have two free days to explore the second largest island in Thailand.
Koh Chang is less touristy compared to the famous islands of Phuket and Koh Smaui. You may consider relaxing by the wonderful beaches or joining in outdoor activities, such as snorkeling, diving, playing with elephants in the sea, exploring the Than Mayon and Klong Plu Waterfalls, visiting Baan Salak Kok and Bang Bao Fishing Village, riding an off-road ATV around the island, or appreciating the stunning sunset view at Kal Bae Beach. All these activities can be easily booked with a local agency and local hotels, or speak with our travel consultant.
Leave Koh Chang for Koh Kood. The transfer between hotels and piers on each side and the ferry boats are all included.
Koh Kood Koh Kood is the fourth largest island in Thailand. There are no shops, night market, or bustling crowds. All you will see here are pristine white beaches, crystal clear water, coconut palm forests, and relaxing beach bungalows.
Immerse yourself on a peaceful island where you and your loved ones can unplug for a while and forget about the rest of the world.
In the morning, transfer to Trat Airport where you will take a morning flight back to Bangkok and connect with your international departure flight.
