Description of Thailand family tour
It's little surprise that Thailand is an ever-popular family holiday destination. A welcoming, enthralling culture; delicious cuisine that can be very accessible for kids who like their food spicy but not too spicy, and plenty of memorable activities that can easily be fitted into a two-week adventure. Plus the beaches, of course.
This fantastic tour, suitable for kids aged just seven upwards, takes you from Thailand’s lively capital, Bangkok, to Khao Sok National Park, Koh Samui, and finally Ang Thong National Marine Park, where you’ll swim and snorkel in this idyllic archipelago where dolphins, sea otters, and wild pigs can be seen.
Along the way, you’ll enjoy bamboo rafting along the Khwae Noi River, watch a Thai boxing training session, and perhaps try making a few traditional Thai dishes with an optional cooking lesson. You’ll explore vast limestone caves and swim in pools beneath a waterfall, take an overnight train, and spot monkeys and carnivorous pitcher plants in one of Southeast Asia’s most biodiverse jungles.
You’ll canoe through the jungle, relax among the coconut plantations and dreamy beaches of Koh Samui, and soak up some local culture when you stay the night at a family-run homestay, and get to know their community.
All told, this trip offers just about everything that a family could hope for from a trip to Thailand, and more besides. This will be one of those holidays you’ll be talking about for years to come.

Planet
We manage water consumption and reduce waste on this trip by encouraging people to bring along re-usable bottles and by supplying a large tank of fresh drinking water on our coach, available for refills. We also include an overnight train journey on this trip. Travelling by public transport is not only a great way to get a flavour of the country and mix with local people; it’s better for the environment as it reduces our reliance on specially chartered vehicles.We also work in conjunction with the Mahouts Foundation, a UK charity working to improve the lives of Asian elephants by returning previously captive elephants to an 8,000 acre protected forest in northern Thailand. We have recently provided funds to build a guesthouse in the village that works to protect the elephants, whilst also offer a 4 day trip to visit the village and witness the elephants roam in the the forests.
As a travel company we are continually looking for ways to improve and are proud to be ‘Responsible in everything we do’. Education is key, and so all staff, Tour Leaders and partnering suppliers are trained in responsible and sustainable tourism. At our Head Office, we continually strive towards a sustainable and planet-friendly working environment, including having solar panels installed and a company commitment to reducing our plastic usage.
People
In order to really be a benefit to the local people in the areas we travel to, we use an entirely local crew, the hotels we use are locally owned and we eat out at a variety of small restaurants and street stalls, thus spreading their spending wealth. We also think this gives you a better experience as you get more personal service, get that bit closer to local life and are able to sample the best of the fantastic local cuisine.We like to support communities through business and often that helps the more vulnerable in Thailand. On this trip we overnight at a homestay in the small village of Klong Noi, where we stay with one of the local families who participate in the Community Based Tourism program. This has been set up not only to showcase but also help preserve their traditional way of life, we learn how boats are built at the local shipyard and have the chance to try our hand at weaving. here there is the opportunity to buy these handmade crafts at source - ensuring the money goes directly to the villagers.
As a company we have valuable and longstanding partnerships with UK charities Toilet Twinning and Send a Cow, plus many smaller initiatives and projects around the world. We’re members of the UK travel industry body AITO because we believe it’s important to share our knowledge and experience, as well as learn from other operators.
