Join us as we travel through Thailand from Chiang Mai to Bangkok, on a tour that includes three fascinating train journeys. We discover the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Sukhothai and Ayutthaya, and historic Kanchanaburi, famous for Hell Fire Pass, Death Railway and the Bridge over the River Kwai. We stay at a floating raft lodge with the opportunity to go bamboo rafting, take an elephant ride or explore a Mon minority village. In complete contrast, we spend time in the bustling city of Bangkok and visit the Grand Palace and Wat Pho.
