Travelling is a huge contributor to global emissions and our current climate crisis. We need to protect our planet, the destinations we love to visit and combat climate change. It is important we all work towards lowering our carbon footprint home and abroad. However, the reality is when we travel we cannot avoid the &lsquo;black stuff&rsquo;. For what we cannot reduce we can offset. This is carbon neutral travel. Through Gold Standard we measure our trips footprint, reduce where possible and offset the balance.&nbsp; 
&nbsp;

Please be aware that dress standards in Asia differ from those in western countries.&nbsp;

If you&rsquo;re planning on visiting religious sites, we recommend that men wear long trousers, and women wear a long skirt, or carry a sarong.&nbsp;

<ul>
	<li>A mixture of lightweight clothing with some warm layers (it can get chilly in public transport or on the sleeper trains and buses)</li>
	<li>Wind and waterproof jacket (depending on the season but it&rsquo;s always advisable to carry one)</li>
	<li>Comfortable shoes and if the program includes a trekking activity we recommend hiking shoes with ankle support. Sandals with straps for water activities and the beach</li>
	<li>Daypack</li>
	<li>Swimming suit, beach towel, sun hat, sun cream, sunglasses</li>
	<li>Mosquito repellent, toiletries, personal medication, Epi-pens, antihistamines etc</li>
	<li>Travel adaptor (Thailand operates on a 230V supply voltage and uses plug types A, B and C)</li>
</ul>

We recommend budgeting $20-$40 AUD a day - not including alcohol.

We suggest booking at least 90 days in advance.

Airport transfers in Thailand are super easy, especially in Bangkok. There are meter cabs everyone, you can book online via an app called Grab (Thai Uber) or your hotel reception can organise. It&#39;s so simple!

Travello Pty Ltd

We had an absolutely incredible time in Chiang Mai! Our tour guides were outstanding! Our guide picked us up at our hotel in Chang Mai at the start of the excursion, and we went to a Thai market to buy food for brunch at the elephant farm. The journey was quite simple and picturesque. We were able to see a great deal of Thailand's countryside that we otherwise would not have been able to. Our guide provided us the clothes we needed to wear when we got to the farm so we could ride the elephants. The elephant trainers were all very gentle with the animals and showed us how to ride them safely.

Perfect

The time we spent on this tour was something I'll cherish for a long time. The beaches we visited were gorgeous. Nothing like Ive seen anywhere. The people were nice and accomodating. The guide went above and beyond to help us. When we went to the elephants, we couldnt resist to touch and play with them . Such gentle giants.

What an experience

We had a fantastic experience in Chiang Mai. We were in a small group and on a schedule, but this allowed us to identify the places we'd like to see again and spend more time. While making sure we were taken care of, our guide kept us on schedule while allowing us everyone the flexibility to explore when on the grounds. The tour guide did a fantastic job of describing the background of each temple while also allowing us time to explore, take our own photos, and enjoy each location. Our tour guide was fantastic, and I heartily recommend it! Having someone to explain the history of each area was wonderful, thus taking the tour was quite helpful to our experience of touring the temples..

Loved it!

The moment we arrived, we were greeted by wonderful staff. The lodging was excellent and spotless. Beautiful setting, top-notch staff. The food at every restaurant was excellent, and the pool was a wonderful spot to spend a lot of time. The staff was really accommodating and looked after us like royalty the entire time. 100 out of 10 would recommend.  Our extremely knowledgeable tour guide walked us through the region's history and the Buddhist faith. On the bus journey to the temple, we learned a lot, which kept the trip from being too exhausting. The fact that there is a break every hour pleased me.

Great great time

It was such a wonderful time! We thoroughly enjoyed the entire excursion. This trip's kayaking through the mangroves was one of my favorites. We experienced three distinct landscapes at a leisurely yet effective pace. Throughout the entire tour, our guide was exceedingly kind and knowledgeable. He patiently awaited our photo-taking before enlightening us on the background of the mangroves. It was a terrific way to tour the island and a ton of fun.

Great Time
