Less time spent in a vehicle; more time to explore each destination. This trip has been carefully designed to give you the best experience of a region by reducing the number of one-night-only stops, giving you extra time in the places that matter. As a shorter trip that covers quite a lot of ground, there will be travelling every other day to the next destination. Please note travel times on the itinerary days carefully for travel estimates.

Highlights of Thailand - worth every penny! A great trip with a fab guide (IfIf) who made the experience more enjoyable. Going during Songkran made it extra special as we joined in with the locals to have water 'fights'. The cooking class and elephant experience were particular highlights.

This was my first trip with Intrepid and first solo trip and I loved everything about it. There was no stress, everything was thought through, and we were brought to some amazing locations I wouldn't have found on my own. Most important though, was our tour guide Nok. She was fantastic, very knowledgeable, and made us feel like family when we went to her hometown.

My first time travelling with Intrepid and found it well above my expectations. Definitely better than the 3 companies I've used before in nearly all aspects.

Never been to Asia. Intrepid took all the guess work out of our trip so we could enjoy it and see some interesting out of the way places. We’ll definitely book with Intrepid again!
