Accommodation

The trip will begin with a night at the 5-star Sofitel Silom Bangkok. You will then travel to Khao Yai National Park, with three nights in the comfortable Jungle House, a beautiful base for exploring the jungle and the province of Isaan.You will then travel to Siem Reap in Cambodia for four nights at the 5-star Sokha Angkor. The hotel is close to the temple site and has a salt water swimming pool as well as spa facilities.  We then return to Bangkok, arriving in time for an evening meal and one at the Sofitel Silom, leaving time for sightseeing and shopping in Bangkok.

Hotels

Bangkok: Sofitel Silom - an elegant 5-star hotel in the fashionable Silom Road which mixes Asian style with modern French chic.

Khao Yai: Jungle House - well appointed modern rooms built right in the jungle of Khao Yai National Park. Rooms are on stilts to give a low impact on the jungle floor. Elephant trekking is available from the hotel.

Siem Riep: Sokha Angkor - a 5-star hotel with extensive facilities including a fitness centre, spa and salt water pool. Close to Angkor Wat on the edge of Siem Reap, the Sokha Angkor has a range of restaurants, and a nightly Cambodian dance show. You will be accommodated in either a deluxe pool view or deluxe city view room.

Food

We offer half-board. This will sometimes be lunch, and sometimes dinner. Thai cuisine has a worldwide reputation. Meals are flavourful and seasoned with lemongrass and basil and there is an emphasis on fresh seafood. Cambodian food is similar, with a French twist. Some foods now a staple of Cambodian cuisine (pumpkin, for example) arrived from other French colonies through the colonial administrators. In the Old French Quarter of Siem Reap you could easily imagine yourself in New Orleans or Alger. There is always a range of options including vegetarian and more spicy food.

The Breakfast buffets in both 5-star hotels are a wonder to behold, and eat, with every kind of breakfast choice imaginable. Breakfast at the Jungle House is a simple affair, with a choice of 'American' or 'Asian' breakfast. With lunch or dinner we will offer the experience of a range of restaurants, either at the hotels, or out and about.
