Your experiential travel adventure continues with elephant trekking, bamboo rafting and visits to local markets and traditional villages before we bring you back to your Chiang Mai hotel.

Your Asia travel adventure continues near the Laotian border when we bring you to a Chinese nationalist outpost in an area formerly off-limits. Relax in a local village before climbing to a border peak that offers breathtaking views over Laos. Your journey ends with a visit to lovely Chiang Rai.
