Nights at each stop

Why this journey works

This route is built around atmosphere rather than a list of sights: good food in Bangkok, the slower rhythm of Chiang Mai, and a beach ending with two unplanned days. Each move is followed by an easy evening.

Who it suits
Designed around atmosphere, setting, food and free time rather than constant sightseeing.
Probably not for
Travellers who want the broadest possible route in the shortest time.
