Thailand is a tropical rural country. Vegetation of incredible contrasts covers the whole country, ranging from the northern limestone hills blanketed in dense monsoon foliage to the tropical rainforests of the south. These leafy retreats are home to an unbelievable wealth of exotic plants, insects, animals and birds, enabling you and your children an unparalleled, ‘first hand’ lesson in living botany.

With over 110 national parks and reserves to visit, you and your family can picture yourselves as a band of intrepid explorers. Discover hidden trails and see unusual wildlife as you walk under canopies of unspoiled greenery.  Track tiger paw prints through jungle growth and if fortunate, spot this beautiful feline in full majesty.
 
Stumble across secret caves, splash around in streaming waterfalls or sooth muscles in natural hot springs, as your family gets close to nature on a range of specialised eco-adventure tours. Just a couple hours drive from the capital, vast Khao Yai is the country’s oldest national park inhabited by herds of roaming wild elephants. Ideal for spotting almost 400 bird species and innumerable wild orchids, ascend Thailand’s highest peak of Doi Inthanon for stupendous panoramas. Cavorting gibbons and colourful hornbills are just two of the magical creatures to see within Thailand’s largest national park at Kaeng Krachan.
