As the capital of Thailand, Bangkok is a fantastic place to celebrate the Thai New Year, known as Songkran, famous for its lively water splashing. You'll head to Siam Square, where you can join locals and visitors in a joyful carnival atmosphere. Get ready to join the fun as thousands of people carry water-splashing tools, celebrating this Water Festival that symbolizes washing away any misfortunes from the past year!
Head out of Bangkok to explore two unique markets.

Don't forget to sample some delicious Thai street food and snap some fantastic photos along the way!
Next, visit the fascinating Maeklong Railway Market, where you'll witness vendors packing up their stalls at lightning speed when the train approaches. After your market adventures, relax on the drive back to Bangkok in the late afternoon, leaving you with the rest of the day free to unwind or explore further.
Leave the lively streets of Bangkok behind and take a short flight to the charming city of Chiang Mai.
Once you arrive, your friendly local guide will meet you for a private transfer to your hotel, where you can check in and freshen up. After settling in, get ready for an adventure in the mountainous region of Doi Suthep.
