THAILAND DAY TRIPS AND EXCURSIONS
Discover one of the world’s finest destinations with Exotissimo’s Thailand day trips. We take you beyond the tourist sites and uncover the country’s rich history, culture, and natural beauty on our extensive collection of excursions.
Even in the main tourist cities of Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Phuket there are hidden gems and unique experiences that show you the ‘real’ Thailand. Travel by local train to a town just an hour away from Bangkok where 100-year old markets stand alongside ancient Chinese temples. Discover the ‘lost city’ of Wiang Kum Kam near Chiang Mai, ruins from an ancient civilization that were buried under dirt and sediment for over 200 years. Why not enjoy breakfast in one of Phuket’s inland rubber plantations for a tranquil and exceptional start to the morning?
Immerse yourself in Thailand’s Buddhist culture with our temple excursions. Awake early to watch monks perform their morning chants at Bangkok’s Wat Po, visit the capital’s most revered temples and make a traditional offering, or spend a morning learning and practicing Buddhist meditation techniques. In Chiang Mai, visit an early morning market to purchase dishes and proceed to an alms giving ceremony after which you will be able to discuss Buddhism with local monks.
For those seeking a touch of adventure, we have a range of Thailand day trips that incorporate adrenaline-pumping activities. Cycle through Bangkok’s Chinatown and leafy suburbs or canoe through the limestone cliffs of Phuket. Experience the thrill of whitewater rafting along rushing rivers or soar above the jungle on an extensive network of ziplines.
After traveling through Thailand on foot, car, and train why not try a different perspective? Drift over Chiang Mai in a hot air balloon or fly over the lush north by helicopter. Travel through Bangkok’s canals by longtail boat or above the city on the modern Skytrain. Ride through the dense Phuket jungle on the back of an elephant or escape the crowds with an ATV tour in the countryside. Our Thailand day trips promise to show you the country in an exciting, unique way.
From the spiritual to the adventurous, the cultural to the exotic, there is always something new to discover with our Thailand day trips.
