Colours of Vietnam - 8 days

Introduction: This tour not only introduces you to some of the highlights of northern Thailand, but also gives you an insight into the flavours of Thailand with cooking classes, market visits and opportunities to sample the local ingredients and cuisine. Lemon grass, chillies, coconut milk and lime all add to the subtle flavours of Thai foods. In the vibrant capital of Bangkok we visit the Grand Palace and Wat Pho, explore the local food markets, and tour the Floating Markets with our first cooking lesson in a country style Thai house. In Kanchanaburi we see the famous Bridge and Hell Fire Pass, and learn more culinary skills with our Baan Nongkhao host family. We explore Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of Siam and then view the majestic city at night from the decks of a converted rice barge. On to Chiang Mai, renowned for its Lanna cuisine, and then further north still to the hill tribes where we overnight in a Lahu village, ride an elephant, and take a short trek amongst the tribal villages. Finally we explore the Golden Triangle before ending our culinary experience in Chiang Rai, in the most northern province of Thailand.
