Could you please confirm if the domestic airfare for travel from Bangkok to Changmai is included in the package cost?

The two internal flights are included as part of this tour price.

How much is the surcharge for the single occupancy individual since we would not wish to share a room with other travelers

The single supplement is an additional $429 USD

I'm thinking of booking a trip to Thailand (8-day tour from Bangkok to Bangkok) and would like to confirm if there is a possibility to consider food intolerances (I have a lactose malabsorption and a fructose malabsorption). Lactose is probably a minor issue for Thai food since dairy is not widely used. I usually stay away from sweetened beverages, fruits, and all sweets so all good here. Traditional Thai food should be OK since the amount of sugar used is typically low. Just want to make sure that the options at breakfast and other meals include water and at least 1 savory dish (as opposed to only sweetened beverages and cakes/fruits). Please note that vegan options often do not work for me because they tend to be higher in fructose content due to a higher amount of vegetables (and often fruits) used. I'd be happy to provide a list of safe foods or any further guidance if needed.

If you could please send through a list of safe foods, we can sent it off to our local office to see what they can do for you.

Is there a singles supplement?

We do offer a single supplement. The booking states Nov 9th 2022 but this date is no longer available.

Will someone pick me up from the airport? Is that included or can it be arranged?

We can certainly arrange for an airport transfer with the tour operator. G Adventures airport transfers will be at an additional cost, and can be requested once your booking is made.

Are the internal flights included on this trip?

The internal flights are definitely included in the tour price for you. It's just your flights to and from the tour that are not included.

I loved the tour. Only change I would have made is to do tour of Bangkok ( reclining Buddha) on first day.

  Traveler•Written June 2024
  On the last day in Chang Mai, I believe it is a free day. We would very much like to set up a day trip to the eco lodge/elephant sanctuary. Is that something we could set up through you or the hotel inn Chang Mai
- National Geographic Expeditions with G AdventuresOperator•Written June 2024
  An arrival transfer is included in the cost of the tour, and you can add on any extra accommodation (up to 5 nights each side), and a departure transfer for an extra cost. The spa can be arranged locally with the hotel/tour leader but we do not have any suppliers for an elephant sanctuary unfortunately, this would have to be arranged at your own expense
