Chill-Out

Busy, busy, busy ... why is everyone always trying to make you DO something? Sometimes the best thing to do is nothing at all, and some places seem perfectly designed for ... well, nothing. Try “being” rather than “being busy”, and you might even discover another side of where or even who you are. By using one of our favourite hotels – that is interesting, comfortable and wonderfully located – we have organised chill-out trips where the emphasis is on you doing as much or as little as you like. So hang your hammock, grab a pina colada and kick back.

Cruising up the Chao Praya River in a converted rice barge, waving to local children calling from the riverbanks - this is a journey that everyone should take at least once in their lifetime. Interact with local villagers and see them going about their everyday lives in markets and in their homes, and have the chance to test your culinary skills with some Thai cooking. The magnificent ancient temples and ruins of Ayutthaya await you at the conclusion of this epic journey. We can tailor this holiday to meet your exact needs.

Goa, a favourite of travellers from all around the world since the days of the Hippie Trail in the 1960s, offers so much more than just the beach. Visitors come here for the unique history, rich Portuguese-influenced culture and some of the prettiest natural scenery that India has to offer. Spend 5 days getting your fix of sun and surf, or shopping for unique souvenirs and treasures at the flea markets. Seafood being a specialty here, you cannot miss the prawn balchao or the kingfish in garlic sauce, just a few of the local favourites. We can tailor this holiday to meet your exact needs.

Some of what you see on your River Cruise will soon become submerged and the local people will be displaced.
