 Let's go on another adventure, this time in the land of smiles, Thailand. The combination of the hustle and bustle of the cities with the serenity of the temples, added to its paradisiacal beaches, millenary traditions, excellent climate, leafy forests, exotic fauna and flora, vibrant markets, delicious cuisine and a people who welcome visitors with a smile make Thailand one of the best gay travel destinations in the world, and this is exactly what we want you to experience.
It will be 10 days of full adventure, together with full relaxation. We begin our trip by exploring the vibrant and gigantic Bangkok, a city where contrasts are the watchword and where the Capital of Thailand is located.
From here we will visit the monumental Grand Palace complex, walk through the alleys of the city, fearlessly dive into the exotic (and delicious) Thai cuisine and have a relaxing klong ride (traditional boats) through the channels of the Chao Phraya River, as well as enjoying the bustling and busy Bangkok gay nightlife.
From Bangkok we head to Krabi, famous for its scenic view and breathtaking beaches and islands. Its coral reef vistas are also one of the world’s most beautiful. Krabi features some of the most photogenic sunsets in Thailand, that are best enjoyed from a beachside bar. In Krabi you will stay in Ao Nang, the major launching point for boat trips to nearby islands and the isolated beaches, that we're going to visit, like Chicken Island, Koh Poda Island, Railay Beach among others.
We couldn't end our trip in Thailand without visiting the frenetic island of Phuket, staying in Patong (gay epicenter of Phuket and Thailand), the most famous beach in Phuket and the perfect area for shopping.
From here we will have a morning with the elephants at Phuket Elephant Sanctuary. It is a sanctuary where the animals are allowed to live their final years roaming freely without being harmed by tourists. Located on 30 acres of lush, tropical land bordering the Khao Phra Thaeo National Park in North East Phuket, visiting the Phuket Elephant Sanctuary helps support their mission of compassionate and ethical elephant tourism.
Among all these activities you will also have plenty of time for yourself, to discover everything at your own pace, bathe in the calm and warm waters of the sea in Thailand, do a lot of shopping, rest in the hotel pools and enjoy everything they have to offer, try all the delicacies of the magnificent Thai cuisine and many optional activities.
