Trip Overview

Day 1

Arrival in Thailand

Welcome to Thailand! Take included transportation with your new group of friends to our first stop--the bustling city of Bangkok. 

Find yourself in the capital of Thailand, a modern metropolis with roots going back to the 15th century. 

Relax and recover after a long flight, and enjoy our opening dinner with your new friends as you begin to acclimate to Southeast Asia.

Day 2

Grand Palace & Tour of Bangkok

Start your first morning in Thailand exploring the Grand Palace--a former residence of the Kings of Siam until 1925.

Head to Bangkok's largest and oldest temple complex, Wat Pho, and walk alongside the 150-foot (30-meter) long Reclining Buddha.

After lunch, absorb the fascinating sights at Pak Khlong Talat, Bangkok's largest flower market, and roam the cultural alleys of Old Bangkok.

After a delicious Thai dinner, stroll through a night market, taking in the sights and sounds of nightlife in Bangkok.

Day 3

Ayutthaya

Enjoy breakfast at the hotel and be driven to the world-famous Ayutthaya Historical Park.  

Founded in 1351, the ancient city of Ayutthaya is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Cycle from one temple to another or opt to visit via a tuk-tuk. Take your time and walk amongst the ancient trees which have grown around the heads of the Buddhas.

In the evening, indulge in street food before taking the night train to Chiang Mai, one of the top places to visit on the planet.

Day 4

Chiang Mai Exploration

Wake up in Chiang Mai, named one of the top 25 destinations in the world by Travel and Leisure. Start your day with a warm bowl of khao soi, a traditional Northern Thai breakfast. 

Enjoy a relaxing morning with a traditional Thai massage, or get a workout by joining a Muay Thai class.

In the afternoon, head up the mountain to Doi Suthep Temple. Watch the sunset over the city while listening to the monks chant evening prayers. After returning, enjoy local Thai dishes for dinner and explore the nightlife.

Day 5

Once back in the city, take an optional cooking class where you will learn how to make local Thai delicacies or explore some temples in the city.

Explore the night market of Chiang Mai. Eat pad thai, snack on Thailand’s famous street food, listen to live music at Chill Out Market Night BarZaar, or check out a cabaret show.

Here, you will learn about Asian elephants, conservation efforts, and why ending elephant riding is so important.

After this incredible experience, return to Chiang Mai for a delicious Lanna-style dinner.

Day 7

Krabi

Say goodbye to Chiang Mai and fly to Krabi on your included flight. Enjoy the change of scenery as you make your way to the beach!

Once you land, head to the pier and take a long-tail boat to Railay Beach. This small peninsula is only accessible by boat because of the large limestone cliffs that cut it off from the mainland.  

Rent a kayak for an hour or cool off with a swim. Enjoy the sunset on the beach and settle into the slow pace of beach life with a delicious meal of Thai cuisine.

Day 8

Island Tour

It’s time to island hop!

Enjoy a traditional boat ride out to the islands of the Andaman Sea. Cruise past limestone karsts jutting out of the emerald green waters and spot birds nesting in the cliffs.

Continue the adventure to protected marine parks of astonishing beauty and white sand beaches. After lunch, spend time exploring the shoreline.  

Enjoy a beautiful sunset and conversations with friends before dinner.

Day 9

Railay Beach

Gear up to enjoy some of the best rock climbing in the world. You may even rappel out of a limestone cave onto the sand below.

Afterward, walk the towering limestone cliffs and stop for a photo of the monkeys as you make your way to Phra Nang beach. 

Depending on the tide, walk across the ocean floor to an isolated island in the Andaman Sea or explore some caves that dot the shoreline.

Day 10

Relaxation & Departure

Say goodbye to Thailand with one last swim in the sea.

Afterward, take your included transportation to the airport, or continue the adventure on your own.

Thailand Trip Reviews

"Amazing experience with U30X. I did their 10 Day Thailand trip and I had the most amazing time. Beyond the many activities, housing, food, and transportation being included with the trip cost, I was able to meet amazing people along the way. The trip leader, Emmy, was such an amazing and kind guide who was, literally, with us every step of the way and so helpful in answering our questions while giving us room to explore the country on our own. I would recommend this program to anyone, anytime, 20/10!" -Shane D.

"I had such an amazing time during my 10 day Thailand trip! I met the most awesome people, experienced the wonderful Thai culture, and had the most delicious authentic Thai food. Emmy was the best trip leader and was so accommodating during the whole trip. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to be around. I will definitely be booking with Under30 experiences again!" -Rachelle A.
