Thailand Family Adventure

With paradise islands, street food to rival any and a smile at every turn, Thailand is everything you’d want for a family getaway… and so much more. Experience the very best bits on this activity-packed adventure, where we search for wild elephants, relax with three days on beautiful Koh Samui and dive into the world-renowned national cuisine. There’s plenty more excitement too, while our expert tour leaders provide plenty of local insight and make sure the trip runs safely and smoothly.

For this family trip in Thailand, we have selected hotels and resorts for their location and character. Most have swimming pools and there is the opportunity to swim at the beach near our hotel in Koh Samui.



Accommodation on this trip includes:



10 nights in handpicked hotels and resorts

Two nights on a sleeper train



The accommodations typically used are found on the day-to-day itinerary. However, below are a few notable places we stay on this trip.



Bangkok: New Siam Palace Ville Hotel (nights 1-2 and 12)







In the Old Town of Bangkok, this calm, family-friendly property is within walking distance of several attractions including Khao San Road and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. The outdoor pool provides the perfect place to chill before or after your explorations.



Kanchanaburi: River Kwai Bridge Resort (nights 3-4)







With riverside spots to eat and drink plus a tranquil swimming pool, this peaceful resort is the ideal place to relax. Wander through the gardens or simply chill post-exploration in your air-conditioned room.



Koh Samui: Am Samui Palace Resort (nights 8-10)







Surrounded by lush gardens, this peaceful, family-friendly resort is the ideal spot to unwind during our three-night stay on Koh Samui. It has a swimming pool and is in the heart of Lamai Beach, just two minutes’ walk from the market and the white sandy beach!



Overnight sleeper train



We spend two nights on the sleeper train, the best way to travel long distances (north to south round-trip) with the local people. We stay in shared air-conditioned carriages; each sleeping berth has a privacy curtain, while sleeping sheets, a blanket and pillow are provided. Snacks are often offered on board, including in the dining car (at an additional cost).



Worth knowing



There may be instances when you want a single room. Perhaps a grandparent needs one, or parents of a family of three or five want to ensure they get a bit of space! Single supplements are available upon request (see price below). Please advise at the time of booking. A single room is available on hotel nights only.

While we do our best to ensure families are roomed close together (in some cases, we can arrange adjoining rooms), we can’t guarantee this. Most family trips occur during peak season and we sometimes have little control over where you are put.
