Everyday was action-packed with pre-booked activities so we had ample opportunity to experience the culture, the place, and the people we were travelling with. Our tour guide, Mai, made the trip all the better by being a true friend as well as a responsible and knowledgeable guide. She was able to propose any number of optional activities for any free time we may have had and was so good at orchestrating a group of our size - 21 people - when it came to transport, accommodation, and dining. We mostly stayed in hostels some of which were more luxurious than hotels we have in Europe. With the Thai 25-day adventure, we were able to cover a lot of ground, travelling from the north to the south of the country before hopping from island to island. I would strongly recommend this tour to others.
