Itinerary - Thailand 360° Winter: Bangkok, Phuket and Chiang Mai

Round trip flights are not included in the package, so you can choose from where and when you want to fly. This is to give you maximum freedom of choice!

Ready to start this trip the best way possible? We’re talking about food and drinks, obviously. Tonight we’ll have dinner and get the chance to have a first taste of the local cuisine - maybe we’ll try pad thai (the real one though!) or khao pad (fried rice that sounds delicious)? The night doesn’t end here though: it continues in Khao San, one of the best streets to enjoy Bangkok’s nightlife.

Bangkok, the vibrant capital of Thailand, pulsates with a fascinating blend of old and new, sacred and worldly, tranquility and frenzy. It's an absolute must-visit on any respectable trip to Thailand, and today we'll dedicate the entire day to exploring this captivating city. Time may not be on our side, but we'll make every moment count!

Just a stone's throw away from the famous Khao San Road, the ultimate party street, lies the magnificent Wat Pho. This sprawling religious complex houses the world's largest reclining Buddha statue. Nearby, we'll discover the awe-inspiring Wat Phra Kaew, known as the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, and the majestic Grand Royal Palace, once the residence of Thai rulers. And just across the Chao Phraya River, which gracefully flows through Bangkok, we'll find the enchanting Wat Arun, also known as the Temple of Dawn.

By now, our tired feet deserve a break, don't you agree? Well, you're in luck! A night bus awaits us to transport us to Chiang Mai. What better way to rejuvenate while traveling than to rest comfortably on the bus? It's the perfect opportunity to recharge for the next leg of our adventure!

After a refreshing night's rest, we're all set for the true adventure to begin! Ready to hit the ground running? Great—because we’re kicking things off with a walking tour of Chiang Mai city.

First a quick history stop: Chiang Mai—meaning “New City”—was founded in 1296 by King Mengrai, replacing Chiang Rai as the capital of the Lanna Kingdom. Today, it’s Thailand’s second most important city.

Chiang Mai is a hotspot for digital nomads thanks to its low cost of living, vibrant atmosphere, global networking opportunities, and lush natural surroundings. Needless to say, we love it here! We’ll wrap up the day at the famous night market, where we’ll enjoy authentic Thai street food—tonight’s dinner sorted!

This morning is yours to explore! Wander through the bustling streets of Chiang Mai or head into the nearby hills for some adventure—think rafting, zip-lining, or trekking in Doi Inthanon National Park. Or, make a dream come true: meet elephants in the jungle and spend time learning about their lives—maybe even join them for a bath!

Whatever you choose, the afternoon has one clear mission: mastering Thai cuisine! We’ll start by shopping for ingredients at the local market, then head to our cooking class. And of course, we’ll be the lucky ones to taste our own creations—so let’s make them count!

Today, we say goodbye to the lush greenery of Chiang Mai’s forests and set off for new horizons: Sukhothai! Did you know this city was the first capital of Siam and is home to one of Thailand’s most stunning historical parks?

Backpacks on, cameras ready—let’s get moving! An unforgettable day of ancient treasures and breathtaking views awaits.

After lunch we say goodbye to the elephants. This afternoon we have a mission to complete, learn how to cook some typical Thai dishes! Before starting our cooking class , however, we need to get the ingredients and the market is the right place! And of course, after cooking… We will also be testers of the dishes we have prepared. So better get busy!

2 days of well-deserved relaxation await us in one of the most spectacular islands in Thailand! 

First we need to make our way there! We'll head to Bangkok before jumping on a domestic flight to Phuket.

These days have the stamp of both relaxation and adventure because those who want can continue to chill on the beach, otherwise it is possible to go sailing, diving, snorkelling or canoeing! We can take tour of the peninsula of Phuket via Freedom Beach - a pearl surrounded by greenery and blue - where we can enjoy the sea and finish the day at the Big Buddha located on top of a hill. We reach it for the sunset: from up here we will enjoy a unique panorama of the whole peninsula.

And the evening? It starts with a bars for sunset and who knows where the night will take us...

Another day in Thailand, another island to reach: this time we move to Krabi. This locality boasts spectacular rock formations that draw an extremely suggestive landscape.

It's our second day in Krabi so we want to make it unforgettable and a boat trip to Koh Phi Phi seems like the best way to do it! Made world-famous by Leonardo DiCaprio in 'The Beach', this archipelago of six islands is located 42 km from the mainland in the middle of the Andaman Sea. We can spend the day sunbathing, swimming and snorkelling as we hop from one picture-perfect stop to the next, including Pileh Lagoon , which is surrounded almost entirely by huge cliffs and Maya Bay, the perfect crescent beach you'll recognise from the movie .Back on dry land, we want to make sure we celebrate the day in style: drinks on the beach as the sun sets anyone?

Today's plans are in your hands! You can choose to try rock climbing on the famous cliffs or hop on a boat to explore the nearby islands. Alternatively, we can head to Tiger Cave, a forested area with a challenging hike of over a thousand steps. The reward? A breathtaking panoramic view of the entire region. The choice is yours for an unforgettable adventure!

After 3 wonderful days of relaxation, snorkelling, swimming and beautiful beaches, we reluctantly say goodbye to Krabi and get ready to return to Bangkok . An internal flight and we are back where we started!

It’s our last full day in Bangkok—let’s make the most of it! There’s still time to explore temples and neighbourhoods we haven’t seen yet, or hunt down those final souvenirs we’ve been meaning to pick up.

And to end on a high note: how about an exhilarating Muay Thai match at the legendary Rajadamnern Stadium, followed by a drink at one of Bangkok’s iconic skybars? The perfect way to toast an unforgettable trip!

Check-out and goodbye – until your next WeRoad adventure!
