Thailand

Thailand! Perhaps not as an exotic a name as Siam, nevertheless it immediately brings to mind Golden palaces, Golden temples and Golden beaches, set against a background of lush, green forests and paddy fields, teakwood houses on stilts along countless klongs (canals), picturesque floating markets, exciting nightlife and smiling helpful, happy people. This is what makes Thailand the top tourist destination in this region of Southeast Asia.

Around Thailand. We hope that when you visit us, you will want to see just as much of our country as possible. We have arranged some programs that will help you to mingle with us and enjoy being in the Land of Smiles much more than you can by staying just in Bangkok for a short visit. These "Round-trips" vary from three days to seven days or more and enable you to see just about every part of this beautiful country. Naturally, we hope you will find the time to participate in one of the longer Round-trips. Only in this way can you truly appreciate, first hand, the varied cultures and traditions which are all vital facets of the Kingdom of Thailand. From the Burmese/Chinese/Hilltribe influenced traditions of the North, where so much of our art and culture originates, to the Laotian/Cambodian culture of Isarn, the Northeastern part of Thailand, to the Muslim (Moslem) dominated area of the South, these excursions also include much of the ancient aspects of Sukhothai and Sri Satchanalai, Kamphaeng Phet and Kanchanaburi.

Thailand has so much to offer our visitors, but seldom do they venture beyond the main tourist destinations of Bangkok, Phuket, Koh Samui, Krabi, Pattaya, Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. Apart from our beautiful beaches and golden temples, there are many other areas left to explore; ancient Khmer ruins in the Northeast, national parks and rain forests situated all over the country, and the fascinating untouched south.

Cambodia

Visit the ancient Khmer temple complex of Angkor - the power base of a mighty military and political force during the 9th to 15th century. At long last the magic of Kampuchea is open once more for outsiders, after suffering many years under the reign of the ruthless Khmer Rouge which resulted in "The Killing Fields". The most spectacular sights are the awesome remains of the once mighty Khmer Empire, Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom, temples of unbelievable majesty and scale, which have been described as man's greatest expression of religious faith. In addition, the open-air markets, museum and tropical-colonial atmosphere of the capital, Phnom Penh, are delightful and unusual adventure travel. We provide 5 tour itineraries to Kampuchea on both Private and Seat-in-Coach basis (seat-in-coach means you join others on the same tour, and thereby the tour cost is considerably cheaper than a private tour).

Laos

The most popular tourist destination is Luang Prabang, the oldest city in Lao PDR, it is ideally located in a basis surrounded by mountains and hills which are populated by several ethnic groups speaking their own dialect, wearing their own style of costume, and practicing different traditions and lifestyles. In 1995 Luang Prabang was listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, confirming the fact that Luang Prabang its exceptional value as a cultural site deserving protection.  Luang Prabang can be combined with any trip to the north either by direct flight from Chiang Mai or taking an overnight river trip along the Mekong River to Luang Prabang by way of Pakbeng.  Other than Luang Prabang, Laos has many other interesting places to visit such as the Plain of Jars, Vat Phou, Pakse, Khong Islands, etc.

Lao is very much laid back and still maintains some old colonial traditions such as the midday siesta
