Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
Dive into a nature lover’s paradise at Khao Sok National Park, exploring, hiking, relaxing and cruising by longtail boat on a limestone cliff-circled lake.
Taste Thai tradition in the village of Mod Tanoy with a group lunch full of authentic flavours. Made by your friendly homestay hosts, you’ll learn about their secret recipes and learn a little about their daily lives.
Encounter the fusion of cultures that gives Penang its atmosphere – where historic buildings, tumble-down shops and hawker-filled alleyways meld with cool street art. Then, explore Melaka’s heritage streets to learn about the mixed cultures and how they thrive together.
Find a slice of paradise on a sea-kayaking trip through the stunning inlets, caves and hidden lagoons of the Baan Bor Tor mangrove forests.
Soak up a free day in Ao Nang – a resort town in Krabi. Laze in the sun, go swimming and snorkelling in the sea or take a daytrip to island hop, hike or go for more sea-kayaking.
Is this trip right for you?
You’ll get to travel overland through multiple countries on this trip, which means that there are some longer travelling days on public and private buses – as well as an overnight train – but it also offers a great chance to interact with your fellow travellers, soak up the scenery, or catch up on some podcasts or your travel journal.

This was the first trip I went on with intrepid and it was brilliant the tour leaders are all very informative and caring and made sure that the trip was packed with amazing things to see and was the perfect mix of sightseeing and relaxing to make sure that you have time to yourself to do what you want. Would recommend to anyone who wants to explore these countries and learn all you want to know while still in a safe and friendly group environment

Recommend this trip to everyone interested in a trip to Asia. It had a bit of everything. From nature, national parks, outdoor and water activities to cities and markets and great food. Our tour leaders were excellent. Had the best time.

A great option for solo female travellers to consider. The itinerary had the right balance between guided activities and free days to explore as you wish. Our guides were excellent; enthusiastic, caring, reliable and organised. I met some wonderful people on this trip and there were many unforgettable highlights.

I not only visited beautiful and varied places but also experienced the culture and local cuisine with very knowledgeable tour guides helping us every step of the way. I hope to get to visit another destination with Intrepid!

Outstanding trip! It was our first Intrepid tour and it will not be our last. Jane and Andy, our guides, made the trip enjoyable and informative. The small group setting has given us friendships that we will always cherish.

This tour gives you a snap shot of Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. The tour was mostly enjoyable, however a slightly extended itinerary giving an extra 1-2 days in Malaysia would be great. We had different tour leaders (Jane in Thailand) and (Andy in Malaysia/ Singapore). Both leaders were knowledgeable of the respective destinations, helpful and easy to approach.
