Itinerary
Fly to Bangkok
Bangkok
Start your adventure in Bangkok, the bustling capital of Thailand. Staying at the charming and secluded boutique hotel Ariyasom Villa offering a more local and intimate feel, a wonderful retreat from the buzz of Bangkok. There is so much to see and do whilst you are there, depending on your interests you can spend your time visiting glittering temples, cruising along the canals off the Chao Phraya, or sampling mouth-watering street food at one of the many markets.
Accommodation: Ariyasom Villa ( 2 nights )Luang Prabang
From the bustle of Bangkok, head to the serene streets of Luang Prabang, reached by a short international flight of just under two hours. A unique experience staying at Satri House, the former childhood villa of Prince Souphanavong, full of antiques, character and old-world charm.
Luang Prabang sits in a beautiful valley surrounded by stunning green mountains. Take some time to explore the cultural highlights of the town, which include the historic Royal Palace and fascinating Traditional Arts & Ethnology Centre, as well as a number of impressive temples. Venture out into the countryside to visit the breath-taking Kuang Si Waterfalls, or take a private boat up the Mekong to see the mysterious Pak Ou Caves.
Accommodation: Satri House ( 3 nights )Hoi An
Once in Danang, enjoy a 40-minute drive through the beautiful countryside to Hoi An. This historic town, cut through with canals, has plenty to offer whilst you are here. Take evening strolls along the river and through winding lantern-lit streets, and there are some excellent restaurants and bars to enjoy along the way. We can recommend a fantastic place to take part in a traditional Vietnamese cooking class whilst you are here. Hoi An is also surrounded by quintessential, serene countryside, and so why not venture out for a day to explore rural villages by bicycle, or travel through the lush hills in a jeep.
Accommodation: Boutique Hoi An ( 2 nights )Khao Lak
Finish with some well-earned relaxation on the beautiful Thai beaches of Khao Lak. Take a flight from Siem Reap to the island of Phuket on the western coast of Thailand. It is then around a 90-minute private drive to the peaceful shores of Khao Lak. Khao Lak has a more tranquil feel than neighbouring Phuket, and it is within easy reach for diving in the Similan Islands, or adventures in Khao Sok National Park.
The Sarojin is a wonderful place to relax and unwind after your busy itinerary. However there are plenty of activities on offer, including boat trips and cooking classes. For adrenaline-seekers you are also only an hour or two from the stunning Khao Sok National Park, which offers adventures such as climbing and mountain biking.
Accommodation: The Sarojin ( 3 nights )Fly home from Phuket
