THEN WE WILL:
Thailand is ready for you! Marc and I visited in January 2022 to ensure that all of our hotels and guides are ready to offer you the best Thai experience in 2023.
We start our adventure in Chiang Mai. Our home base for 5 luxurious nights will be the beautiful 5 star Raya Heritage hotel while we explore this magnificent city and province of Thailand.
We then fly south to Krabi province to soak up the sun and enjoy the gorgeous beaches, while staying at the 5 star Pimalai Koh Lanta .
And finally, we explore the beautiful, bustling city of Bangkok and luxuriate in comfort at the elegant 5 star Siam Kempinski hotel.
We are lucky enough to have with us as my assistant and creative director, Joanne Lauzon “JoeGirl” who will open our eyes to the beauty of Thailand, through the eyes of an artist. You will be supplied with sketch book, paints and all other supplies needed as Joanne guides us through creating memories of our trip in a unique and creative way.

What you can expect
We are the perfect blend of luxury and local.
We keep the groups small so we can give you the personal attention and luxury experience you deserve. The group size is a max of 10 travellers.
You will have the best experience if you are walking and exploring the cities that we visit. With traffic, especially in Bangkok, it is much more efficient to take the local trains, subways and sometimes an exhilarating TukTuk ride as opposed to a taxi or van. Often we will have lunch at a food stall or local market, have a street snack or stop for a refreshment and people watch for a bit.
We ensure you have the best guides when we tour the famous landmarks, such as the Grand Palace and Wat Pho.
Our days wrap up at the hotel, in luxury and relaxation before we head out as a group for an always delicious evening meal.

The Dining Experiences
Our lunches are often at small local eateries, stalls, or street food.
We want you to experience the best food that Thailand has to offer and often that means the small family run restaurant.
Our evening meals are more refined and we search out restaurants that give you a unique, yet delicious experience.

It is Elephant Day!
A highlight of our time in Chiang Mai is always this day. Patara Elephant Farm is a wonderful place that raises, cares for, and breeds elephants in conjunction with the university in Chiang Mai. We are picked up at our hotel and transported to Patara. When we arrive we are greeted by a few beautiful elephants. We learn about Patara, choose our elephant friendly shirt and then are assigned an elephant for the day. We are taught how to care for them, we hike through the jungle to the river where we have lunch and the opportunity to swim with the elephants if you choose to. For anyone who does not wish to hike to the river, transportation down to the river can be arranged.
