Description
Start your journey by exploring the rice paddies and jungle surrounding Chiang Mai or take a trek to the elephant camp during the day. Finish your day by watching a cultural performance of the local hill tribes at the luxurious Four Seasons whilst dining under the stars in a magical setting.
Continue your journey by boarding the elegant Eastern & Oriental Express where you can watch the world go by from the observation car, relax in your own luxurious private cabin or indulge in a cocktail at one of the train’s bars. The cuisine on board is divine and the perfect way to round off days of exploring the villages and towns at the various stops along the route.
On arrival in Singapore you will be whisked to the airport for your flight to Langkawi where you can relax at the Datai, spending your days surrounded by dense jungle with the waters of Datai Bay lapping at your feet. Sample some of the outstanding food on offer or, for the more active, play a round of golf on the hotel’s own golf course.
