• The cuisine of Thailand includes a lot of meat and seafood. For vegetarians and vegans we recommend reviewing the itinerary and inclusions to ensure that you will be able to fully participate and enjoy this trip. We also have many other trips to Thailand which can accommodate a range of dietary requirements.
• This trip includes an overnight train between Ayutthaya and Chiang Mai. Accommodation is simple but comfortable – soft sleeper class multi-share compartments with air conditioning and bunk beds, with sheets and a pillow provided.
• There is one night at a homestay on this trip, a wonderful opportunity to witness everyday Thai life. Facilities can be basic and multi-share, with fold-out mattresses on the floor and shared bathrooms. The rewards of such an authentic local experience are immeasurable.
