Itinerario del grupo
Arrive in Bangkok and check in to your hotel, where your Soca Islands Host and the rest of the group will be waiting.
In the afternoon you set off on foot through the city's historic streets, pausing along the way for a cold drink. Tonight everyone heads out together for dinner and live music at one of Bangkok's buzziest spots.
Today starts with a visit to some of Bangkok's oldest and most revered temples, built with the riches of the old Thai kings. Step in from the traffic and you'll feel the calm, and get a sense of how central Buddhism is to everyday Thai life.
After lunch, roll up your sleeves for a hands-on cooking class. You'll make favorites like Pad Thai and Penang curry, then sit down to eat them in a setting that feels more like a friend's kitchen than a restaurant.
A morning flight takes you to Chiang Mai. Grab a Thai iced coffee for the trip, then spend the day getting to know this laid-back mountain city on your own terms.
Dinner is a proper introduction to northern cooking: khao soi, a rich curry noodle soup, and sai ua, a spicy sausage fragrant with turmeric, lemongrass and fresh herbs.
You'll spend today at an ethical elephant sanctuary south of Chiang Mai. Walk alongside the elephants, feed them and help with bath time, while the team explains their conservation work and the traditional herbal medicine used to care for the animals. You'll even roll your own herbal vitamin balls.
In the evening, a night market awaits. Try khao soi again, mango sticky rice, or something bolder, like fried insects.
Fly south to Khao Lak and check in by the beach.
The evening is all about easing into coast mode: fresh seafood, a cold beer and the sound of the surf.
Today is a full day on the water. Your boat heads out to the Similan Islands, known for near-empty white beaches, clear turquoise water and colorful coral reefs.
Snorkel alongside tropical fish, hop between islands, stretch out on the sand, and stay out long enough to watch the sun set over the sea.
No plans today unless you want them. Swim, lie on the beach or go looking for street food.
Tonight the group shares a farewell dinner, a chance to look back on the week and the friendships made along the way.
Your trip wraps up today. Head for your flight home, or stay on and keep exploring: Thailand's airports connect easily to the rest of Southeast Asia and beyond.

Please keep in mind that our itinerary, activities, and hotels might change. These adjustments could happen with little notice due to factors like availability, weather conditions, seasonal shifts, or other circumstances beyond our control. Rest assured, we always aim to minimise any impact on your experience. Occasionally, we may tweak the itinerary to try out fresh ideas and keep the adventure exciting.
We believe solo travelers shouldn’t have to pay extra to explore the world. That’s why our group trips are designed around shared accommodation and do not include a single supplement. Solo travelers joining our group trips are paired in twin or multi-share rooms with another traveler of the same sex for the duration of the trip.
Some of our Independent trips are structured differently. For these itineraries, solo travelers will need to book at the single occupancy rate.
