Days 1-2 Bangkok
Jump on a bike and ride through the quiet backstreets of this steamy metropolis to gain a unique insight into Bangkok life. Cycling is a fun and unusual way to see the city. There's free time to tour the Grand Palace, enjoy a Thai massage or to visit a fortune teller at Wat Pho.

Days 3-5 Hilltribe Trek
Get back to nature in the thick, green forests of northern Thailand for three days of trekking through hilltribe villages. Wander beneath enormous trees, ramble between emerald rice paddies and dive under rushing waterfalls. Have a go at adventure bamboo rafting at an Akha village or maybe hit the markets to see local handicrafts. Stay in traditional Karen villages to discover intriguing hilltribe traditions and make friends with the locals.

Days 6-9 Chiang Mai
Pedal along paths less-travelled through Chiang Mai's seldom-visited surrounding neighbourhoods, passing beautiful houses en route to the jade-green countryside. At the end of a day's cycling, there's nothing quite like a soak in a traditional mud bath. Chiang Mai offers a range of mountain-bike options and for those who still can't get enough adventure, there's rock climbing in the Mae On district. Alternatively, head to the famous Night Bazaar for a green curry or to haggle over handicrafts.

Days 10-12 Kanchanaburi/ River Kwai
Stop to pay tribute to lives lost on the Death Railway before pounding the pavements, or jump into a saamlaw to explore tranquil Kanchanaburi. After getting a history lesson at the Hellfire Pass Memorial, it's off to the River Kwai to kayak through its many farming villages before spending the night under the stars aboard a jungle raft. Why not soothe those weary muscles with a final massage? Then, celebrate the end of the adventure with a final group dinner.

Day 13 Bangkok
The journey comes full circle on the busy streets of Bangkok.
