ITINERARY BOOK
 

This journey has been personally designed by Nattinee Kulsin, Born in Sukhothai and Head Concierge at Secret Retreats

All our itineraries have generally been constructed on the basis of the rooms that have the most charm or best view, and not necessarily the first prices, nor the most expensive suites.
We can of course adjust according to your request.

Highlights of the Journey:

  • A night in Bangkok, one of Asia’s iconic cities.
  • Stay in a private riverside residence near Ayutthaya.
  • A visit the ancient capitals of Sukhothai and Ayutthaya and the tribal Karen area of Maesot .
  • Experience the rich culture of Chiang Mai.

What separates us apart from others? Secret Retreats creates tailor-made journeys.
Passionate about travel, Secret Retreats will design and create the perfect journey to match both your time and budget. This journey will make your children discover the diversity that Thailand has to offer: the modern high-rise buildings and street food of Bangkok, a peaceful residence in a village by a river, the ancient capitals of Ayutthaya and Sukhothai, ride a boat on a river, explore the hills and mountains along the Burmese borders, the Lanna culture in Chiang Mai... and as an extension, why not relaxing on a beach in the South after?
