Bangkok
You will be picked up from your hotel by our driver and guide for a wonderful 5-hour cycling tour through Bangkok. This journey starts in Chinatown, one of Bangkok’s busiest districts. We will cycle through narrow alleys and side streets, past countless shops and bustling markets. Along the way, we will see merchants, construction workers, and monks – in short, we will witness the daily life of ordinary people in this vast metropolis.
Our journey then continues through quieter residential neighborhoods, before we board a long-tail boat. With this boat, we will cruise through the canals of Bangkok, earning the city its nickname, “The Venice of the East.” You will see wooden stilt houses, women washing clothes, and children laughing as they jump into the water from wooden piers – this is the real Bangkok.
Eventually, we will step ashore in a rural area, about 30 kilometers outside downtown Bangkok, where we continue our cycling adventure. Here, you won’t find highways or metro trains, but instead, country roads, palm trees, and flower farms. The tranquility here is the complete opposite of Chinatown. It’s hard to believe that just an hour ago, we were cycling amidst speeding cars and honking tuk-tuks. Along the way, we will stop for a delicious Thai lunch. After the tour, you will be taken back to your hotel.
Overnight stay at Travelodge hotel.

Bangkok – Kanchanaburi
Today, you will visit the remarkable Rom Hub Market in Samut Songkhram. This is a unique attraction. “Rom Hub” means “closed umbrella”, and the market is located along a railway line. The special thing about this market is that when a train is approaching, vendors quickly move their stalls to allow the train to pass. Once the train has passed, the market resumes operation as usual.
We will then continue our journey to Kanchanaburi.
Overnight stay at The River Kwai Jungle Raft Hotel. Dinner is included.

Kanchanaburi
After breakfast, your guide will take you to the tropical wilderness of the Erawan Waterfalls. These waterfalls are filled with emerald-green pools and are named after the three-headed white elephant from Hindu mythology. The top of the waterfalls resembles the head of an elephant.
You can either hike all the way to the top of the waterfalls or swim in the crystal-clear water at one of the many levels of the falls. Lunch will be served at one of the restaurants around the Erawan Waterfalls.
After visiting the Erawan Waterfalls, you will be transferred back to your hotel.

Here, you will see a gigantic seated Buddha statue at Wat Prananchoeng Temple and the famous 7-meter-long reclining Buddha at Wat Chai Monkol.
Lunch will be served at a local restaurant before continuing to Wat Mahathat Temple, which is well known for the Buddha head entwined within the roots of a tree.

Around 08:00 - 08:30, you will be picked up from your hotel for a transfer to the elephant camp.
The day begins with a scenic drive through the countryside to the Elephant Nature Park. Here, you will hear the stories of rescued orphaned elephants and see how they have formed a proud herd—experiencing freedom from abuse and mistreatment for the first time in their lives.
Upon arrival at the camp, you will walk with the staff and elephants to the river surrounding the park. From our viewing platform or the riverbank, you can enjoy watching the elephants play and refresh themselves in the water with your guide.
(PLEASE NOTE: ENP does not allow guests to bathe or swim with the elephants.)
Lunch will be served at the camp, offering a rich and diverse buffet featuring Asian and international cuisine.
In the late afternoon, it’s time to say goodbye to the elephants and Elephant Nature Park before returning to Chiang Mai.
During your visit to the park, the focus is on quality time—spending time with, observing, and being near the herd. We do not follow a strict schedule; the best way to make the most of your visit is to relax, watch, and learn from the elephants.
