Thailand 7 day tour

Planet

Transport:
Much of the transport with the countries is carried out using public transport, an effective way to help lower your carbon footprint, mingle with the locals and soak up the scenic views as you make your way to the next location. A lot of our activities are based on walking from place to place. These walking trips will provide you with light exercise - looking after your well being, while also reducing the carbon footprint on the planet - looking after the planet’s well being!

Accommodation:
All of the places we stay in are locally run and passionate about doing their part when it comes to the environment. On this tour, we stay in hostels & 1 night in a homestay, a great way to immerse yourself in the local tradition. The hostel in Bangkok implements a plastic free future and uses plastic free equipment where possible.

Whilst you’re staying in each of these places, we encourage you to use local services on offer, this way your money goes straight into the local community and economy. Check out the street food markets for delicious local food.

Wildlife:
Whilst we visit the Elephant Sanctuary, our travelers will have a proximity of 10-15 metres from the Elephants in order to closely follow a more natural environment for the animals and without exploitation for tourism.

Top Tips:
We do not encourage our travelers to drink tap water in Thailand however we still suggest packing a reusable water bottle in case there are safe refill stations so that we can still try to minimise the trail of plastic left behind.

We also recommend packing as light as possible, to help keep your carbon footprint low.
