Experience a sun-drenched slice of heaven on this trip through southern Thailand. Set sail across a mist-shrouded lake, enjoy a taste of rural life at a homestay, swim in pristine waters and laze on white sand beaches. All of the highlights of a tropical Thai adventure - exotic wildlife, remote hideaways, lush island landscapes and unbelievably warm clear waters - are here in the south, just waiting to be explored.

| Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends. - Maya Angelou |
