Sample travel plan

Day 1-2

Departure

Departure from Poland to the capital of Thailand – Bangkok.

Day 2-5

Discovering Bangkok

Arrival in the Big Mango, Bangkok. A private driver will pick you up from the airport and take you to your hotel.

A city of legend that has no equal in the world. History and modernity, exotic streets and crazy nightlife, aromatic markets and luxury hotels, street fruit sellers, modernist shopping malls and idyllic temples where monks seek contact with the afterlife. The city of incredible contrasts is open to you!

During your stay in Bangkok we invite you to join two private tours:

  • Touring the city by local transport – tuk tuks, metro and boats on the Chaopraya River. Thanks to this, you will get to know what Bangkok is really like! During the tour, you will see, among others, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, the Royal Palace, and also visit Chinatown, which is a paradise for street food lovers.
  • Ayuthaya – Set off early in the morning and take a 1,5-hour train journey to Thailand’s historic capital. A tuk tuk will take you to the majestic Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon with its huge chedi, as well as Wat Phanan Choeng, home to an impressive seated Buddha, and the ruins of Wat Mahathat, famous for its iconic Buddha head embedded in a banyan tree.

On the last day, a private driver will take you to the airport where you will fly to Cambodia.

Day 5-8

Cambodia and the mystical temples of Angkor

From the airport in Siem Reap you will be picked up by a private driver and taken to your hotel.

Siem Reap itself is a very pleasant town, where, in addition to observing Cambodian street life, you will have your choice of plenty of atmospheric bars and excellent restaurants serving both Khmer and French specialities (Cambodia was a former French colony and this influence is still visible here).

While in Siem Reap, we invite you to join two private tours:

  • To the Angkor temple complex, one of the wonders of the ancient world and a must-see during a trip to Cambodia! The sight of dozens of extraordinary, intricately decorated temples rising out of nowhere in the heart of the jungle will not let you forget about it for the rest of your life. At your disposal for the whole day will be a private car with a guide, who will show you the most beautiful corners of the temples.
  • Take a boat trip to the villages on the Tonle Sap Lake, the largest lake in Southeast Asia. These villages have shops, temples, schools, and even a police station, and it is worth taking a look at the daily lives of these people, their leisure activities and fun. The residents live in houses built on stilts that are 10 meters high, due to the seasonal changes in the water level in the lake.

On the last day, transfer to the airport and flight to Bangkok, then transfer to the island of Koh Samet.

Day 8-13

Vacation on Koh Samet

A private driver will be waiting for you at the port on Koh Samet and will take you to your hotel.

This small island delights with white beaches, crystal clear waters and a laid-back atmosphere. Here, time passes more slowly and the days are filled with sunbathing, relaxing in a hammock and tasting fresh seafood in restaurants right by the sea. There is something for everyone here: from the lively Sai Kaew beach, perfect for water sports and social evenings, fire shows, to secluded corners like Ao Wai, which invite you to lazily relax with a book in your hand. Koh Samet is also a perfect place for nature lovers - you can admire wonderful sunsets, hike around the island and discover its untouched corners surrounded by tropical vegetation.

On the last day, transfer by boat and car to Bangkok.

Day 13-14

return

On the last day, transfer to the airport in Bangkok (approx. 3 hours) and flight to Poland with transfer.
