Sample some of the world's best street food, explore otherworldly caves in Tham Lod, trek into rural hillside villages to meet welcoming local tribes in the north – all these experiences and more are available to travellers through G Adventures 'Rediscover Thailand' campaign.
The campaign – which is run in partnership with the Thai Tourism Authority – invites Aussies and Kiwis to explore some of Thailand's lesser-known corners and to experience a side to the country they might not expect. Beyond the bustle of Bangkok and the famously dreamy beaches of the south exist a million other reasons why the country is known as the “land of smiles” and with savings of up to 15 per cent across select G Adventure itineraries travellers have even more opportunity to explore Thailand.
Adrian Piotto, Managing Director for G Adventures in Australia & New Zealand, believes the campaign is perfectly suited for those travellers tempted by the distance between the countries, but still looking to get out of their comfort zone and experience a different culture.
“It's well known that Aussie and Kiwi travellers can't get enough of Thailand, but there's more to this incredible country than just Phuket and full-moon parties. There's the hustle and bustle of urban life, but there's also the lush jungles, the picture-perfect islands and, of course, some of the best cuisine in the world.”
The sale ends May 31 2017 and includes departures through to December 15 2017.
Discounted offerings include 15 per cent off select Thailand tours such as:
