Having had a minute to reflect on our trip to Thailand I am realising what a special time it was. Having an early arrival the arranged transportation to our hotel was a blessing. I'm not sure we had the bandwidth to arrange that once we landed. The first day's excursion to the Golden Palace and Emerald Buddha was a sensory overload of Thai culture and craftsmanship. Our guide was spectacular and graciously shared her knowledge and heritage as we walked the grounds of a revered space. Day two was a bit more sober as we pondered the sacrifices made building the Death Railway. Again, our guide was able to relate the gravity of this engineering feat built on the backs of World War II's POWs. We saw the museum for historical context, rode the train out to a POW camp, and visited the graves of those who perished in the struggle to complete this challenging project. Our last day in the Bangkok region was more refreshing as we climbed up the Erawan Falls and enjoyed a dip in the cool water. Before leaving Bangkok we had one last big push visiting Bang Pa-In, Awuthava, Wat Ya Chai, and Wat Phra Si Sanpeth. As this was our last day the driver and guide got us to the airport in a timely fashion. Our guide took us directly to security after we checked in and checked our bags. These first few days were a great way to get started as the schedule was not aggressive and we felt that we were actually able to take the sites in rather than grab a selfie and move on. Next we moved on to Chang Mai. An arranged driver met us and took us to our hotel for a good night's sleep before a day of exploring on our own. The first day of guided touring took us to Wachirathan Waterfall, Doi Inthanon National Park for a 3 kilometer hike that ended in an indigenous village for shopping and lunch. The afternoon was a cool-off at the highest point in Thailand complete with a story of a dedicated daughter's effort to fulfill her father's wishes to be buried at the top of Thailand. The afternoon was completed at the twin pagodas erected for King Rama 9 and his Queen. These beautiful outdoor locations were examples of the Thai connection to the land and nature. Our last day was at an elephant sanctuary. 80+ acres of wilderness all for the enrichment and support of domesticated elephants. We were overjoyed with our interactions and discovering the personality of these very large, powerful, and yet gentle beings; a definite highlight. After an afternoon of laundry, massage and an evening out for dinner it was time to head off to Phuket to wrap up our Thai sampler. All in all it was a great trip and we would return to Thailand to venture out into the rest of the country now that we have a good feel for what the country is about. The daily agenda was not aggressive and the excursions were well thought out and enriching. If you are looking for a sampler trip to Thailand, I would recommend Realistic Asia. They were communicative, organized and accommodating.

This tour was short and sweet, but I got to see everything that I wanted like some of the major temples, the floating market, and the death railway. It also gave me some time to explore Thailand on my own so it was perfect. The tour guides were great and knowledgeable. Getting around Thailand was also very easy thanks to the air conditioned van. I would definitely go on this tour again.

What our customers ask about Private Tours & Trips in Thailand
