10-day: Thailand Family Adventure: Deservedly listed among the world’s friendliest countries, Thailand is a warm embrace of a destination where encounters with local families leave a lasting impression. Journey from the bright lights of Bangkok to the evergreen rainforest of Khao Sok then out to Phuket, Thailand’s largest island, on a private, independent adventure tailored to your family’s needs, with unforgettable experiences to thrill all ages. You will return home with a scrapbook of memories, from encountering elephants and exotic plant life to snorkeling, cookery lessons and freewheeling bicycle rides past golden temples.Bang Krachao by bike: (INCLUDED) Leave the chaotic inner city behind with a cycle tour around the urban oasis of Bang Krachao, known as the “green lung” of Bangkok. Ride through this hidden jungle, woven with waterways and dotted with temples. Elevated pathways above the Chao Phraya River take you through mangrove forest and farmland, past homesteads and temples — including an Ayutthaya-era temple with a 250-year-old teak roof. Stop off at Sri Nakhon Khuean Khan Park and Botanical Garden to explore local plants and wildlife.Royal Bangkok (INCLUDED) Step into Bangkok’s storied past, where spiritual devotion and royal legacy shape daily life. Glide along the Chao Phraya River, passing Wat Arun’s porcelain spires before reaching the Grand Palace at opening. Wander gilded courtyards in relative quiet, pausing before the revered Emerald Buddha in Wat Phra Kaew. Next, slip into the Queen Sirikit Museum of Textiles, an intimate collection of the Queen Mother’s elegant gowns and couture—each piece a reflection of refined taste and national identity. Hop a tuk tuk and weave through the city’s pulse to Wat Pho, where the colossal reclining Buddha stretches serenely, its golden presence anchoring centuries of tradition.Backwaters of Bangkok: Discover Bangkok's hidden heritage aboard a private longtail boat tour through its khlongs (canals) to its offbeat, lesser-known neighborhoods. Understand why the Thai capital was once known as the “Venice of the East” as you navigate its historic waterways, leaving the shimmering skyscrapers behind and gliding into quieter backwaters, where children swim, locals fish from the banks, and hawkers sell grilled squid from their boats. Accompanied by a guide, hop ashore at the 200-year-old Thai-Portuguese enclave of Kudi Jeen to visit a serene Buddhist temple, explore the historic lanes, and pick up pastries from the best bakery in the neighborhood.Old Bangkok and Chao Praya River: Led by a savvy local guide, delve into the characterful district of Talad Noi, or Old Bangkok. The architecture is eclectic: French neoclassicism sits alongside Chinese merchants' 19th-century mansions and converted warehouses hosting cool cafes, designer boutiques and art studios; street art paints the walls of hidden labyrinthine backstreets, which house mechanics shops and street-food stalls. Walk the lanes then hop on a boat along the Chao Phraya River to get a different perspective on Old Bangkok.Come to blows with Muay Thai lessons: Experience the art of Muay Thai, Thai kickboxing, with a private lesson from a professional champion. Master the basics as you punch, kick, elbow and knee your instructor's pads, receiving immediate feedback.Market-hopping in Bangkok: Bangkok's markets are little worlds of their own, fairgrounds of the senses, and a great way of dipping into everyday Thai life. This market tour starts early in the morning, heading to a traditional food market for a street-food breakfast before heading to Yaowarat and a wholesale market selling everything from stationery to fabrics. Spices, silks and crafts can be found on the stalls in Little India, while garlands of bright marigolds are made at the main flower market.Bangkok on two wheels: Embark on a cycling adventure through Bangkok, exploring the riverfront, bustling local markets and iconic landmarks. Ride to the sunlit Wat Arun, continue past Wat Rakhang Khositaram, Sanam Luang and the Grand Palace before ending your tour in the flower market, Pak Klong Talad.Khao Sok National Park wildlife safari (INCLUDED) Follow your expert guide on a jungle trek that brings you up close to Khao Sok National Park’s incredible wildlife. Look out for gibbons, macaques, and the elusive Dusky Leaf monkey, as well as plenty of wonderful plant life that calls the jungle home – from carnivorous pitcher plants and orchids to the largest flower in the world - Rafflesia arnoldii.Lake kayaking (INCLUDED) Gliding along silently by kayak is a great way to experience the Cheow Lan Lake, exploring its jungle covered shores and secluded bays. Board your kayak directly from your floating room and paddle across the glassy waters at your own pace.Boat ride on Cheow Lan Lake: (INCLUDED) Explore the Cheow Lan Lake by boat, taking in the striking limestone formations rising from the water. The most famous of these are the Khao Sam Klur, or Three Brothers, said to represent three brothers who were competing for the love of a princess. On the shore keep a look out for wildlife emerging from the forest to bathe or drink from the lake’s waters.Cave trekking (INCLUDED) The limestone hills of the Khao Sok National Park hide numerous caves waiting to be explored. Trek through the forest and enter a dark and mysterious world filled with stalactites and stalagmites. Formed by gradual accumulation over the millennia the rock formations vary greatly, from giant curtains and frozen waterfalls to some that even resemble undersea coral.James Bond Island by speedboat: (INCLUDED) If you have seen the 1974 Bond film The Man With The Golden Gun, you will probably remember the iconic rock formations that provided a dramatic backdrop. Hop on a speedboat to visit the location (Phang Nga Bay), known as James Bond Island, before switching to a canoe and exploring more of Panak Island. Motor on to a floating fishing village on stilts and lunch on the beach at Rang Yai Island.

If you purchased the Cancel Anytime option and cancel your trip due to a non-covered reason, you may be reimbursed up to 75% of the cancellation penalties (maximum reimbursement is $37,500 for most states)

The Cancel Anytime coverage may only be purchased in combination of the Guest Protection Program (Travel Insurance) and is due within 14 days of your initial trip deposit. You may cancel up to day of departure however your travel agent or A&K must be notified of the cancellation.
Are you interested in getting the "Cancel Anytime" coverage? It is a separate coverage that does come with everything you read in the insurance plan above such as trip cancellations, interruptions, delays, lost or delayed baggage, emergency medical expenses, and emergency medical transportation.*
