Lush nature, rugged mountains and plenty of thrills; Thailand is our gateway to nine days of action-packed adventure. From invigorating jungle hikes to bustling markets, our journey takes us off the typical tourist path. Go on remote hikes free from other tourists, bike through quaint villages and enjoy unique stays in eco-lodge accommodations. We begin in Chiang Mai, the hub of the north. A group zip-lining trip gives us a heart-pounding view of the jungle canopy. The evening brings the option to wander through Chiang Mai’s famous night markets, sifting through displays of handcrafted silk, paper, textiles and culinary treats. Next we turn toward the mountains for a 3-day trek. Hike past beautiful waterfalls and challenging jungle forests. Along the way, we are welcomed into the homes of the hill-tribe people to dine, rest and experience a rare glimpse into the daily life of villagers. We change gears from there, exploring by kayak and mountain bike. Bike to the Chiang Dao caves to explore five interconnected caverns extending some seven miles into the mountains. Our journey ends where it began, celebrating with new friends and new memories in Chiang Mai. This is a great trip for adults and fit, older teens.
