Tour della Thailandia: Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai e Phuket

Accommodation in hotel and ferry cruise along Bangkok canals, Khlong Mon, Klong Bangkok Noi and Klong Bangkok Yai. Bangkok Klongs, the old canals, offer a different perspective of the city.

Today you'll visit the main attractions of this very busy and populated city, which can still offer unique places and emotions. You'll start off with the Royal Palace then visiting temples, the golden mountain and Jim Thompson's house, a complex made up of different old Thai houses created by the American businessman Jim Thompson to host his art collection.

Speaking of Bangkok floating market, one is likely to think that it is located within the city, but actually the market is out of Bangkok and it takes over an hour to reach the area. After the market, set off to Kanchanaburi, one of the most loved provinces of the country, where you'll visit the War Museum. Visit world famous Kwai River Bridge and overnight on Kwai River (Kitti Raft House, a simple property sorrounded by lush nature on the banks of the Kwai). Dinner on the river.

Day in the nature, visit to Erawan Falls sorrounded by the forest and return to Bangkok.

Ayutthaya, Wat Muang, the tallest Buddha statue in Thailand and the ninth tallest statue in the world and finally Lopburi, the city of monkeys, so called because 2000 monkeys wander around the town populated by 20,000 people. Then it's on to Sukhothai, in the heart of the country.

Visit another historic gem today: Sukhothai, with temples and Buddha statues of incredible beauty; after Ayutthaya, this is another archaeological park recognized by Unesco. Not only will you visit the park but also other interesting complexes outside.

The journey north leads to Chiang Mai after visiting the best of Lampang. Once in Chiang Mai visit the most famous temple of the city, Doi Suthep, the city's devotional center and free evening.

Today visit the beautiful temples of Chiang Mai, almost all within the city walls. After lunch in a special location visit the artisan village famous for handmade and hand-painted umbrellas, while admiring also other local products. Finally visit a temple that only few people know, a gem hiddem in the hills, Wat Pha Lang.

Today you will meet the elephants in the right environment among the mountains at Doi Inthanon Elephant Sanctuary. In the afternoon visit King & Queen Pagoda, the tallest pagoda in Thailand.

Doi Inthanon National Park is a very evocative place where you'll see local populations involved in a project aimed at supporting quality farming and then the waterfalls on the highest mountain of Thailand.

Reaching Chiang Rai, the jounrey north is completed. After the visit to the magnificent White Temple, you'll be close to the border: here the Mekong divides the territory and you'll catch sight of Thailand, Myanmar and Laos with one glance. The Golden Triangle, that until a few years ago was devoted to massive opium cultivation, has been wisely turned into a popular tourist attraction. Overnight in Chiang Rai.

In due time you'll be transferred to Chiang Rai airport for the flight to Phuket, the Pearl of the Andaman Sea, the largest island in Thailand and the most developed for tourists, with hundreds of resorts and restaurants, as well as activities such as shopping facilities, discoes and tour of the most famous islands.

Phuket has been growing as no other place in South East Asia becoming an international destination famous all over the world in a few years.
