Thailand Intro 9 Days
This 9-day trip links Bangkok, Khao Sok National Park and Ko Pha Ngan with a mix of city time, inland nature and island stays.

The programme also includes a traditional Thai massage, a farewell dinner and a beach party. An airport pick-up in Bangkok, group leader support and local guides are included, along with selected meals and onward travel help.
