Day 20. Bangkok - Chiang Rai & Anantara Luxury Elephant Camp
Overnight – Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp
You are assisted with check-out in the slightly early morning and driven to the airport to board your flight to Chiang Rai. Arrive in Chiang Rai and you are greeted at the airport and driven to a monument that is nothing like anything you have ever seen before, Wat Rong Khun, also known as the White Temple. This recent striking creation of a famous local architect is extremely ornate and beautiful in its design and houses an impressive array of intricate sculptures.
This is the attraction that gets the most visitors in the Chiang Rai region and for good reason – it is completely different from any other monument in Southeast Asia.
Chiang Rai, Thailand’s northernmost city, was the first capital of the Lanna Kingdom and today is the commercial center of the Golden Triangle region. The mountainous region of the north has been significantly influenced by Burmese and Chinese culture due to its proximity to those nations. The culture, language, and food, even the physical appearance of the local Lanna descendants, all stand in subtle contrast to the rest of Thailand.
Next you are driven to your home for the next two nights – The Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort, where you are assisted with your check-in after you have lunch at the all-inclusive resort. From now until we pick you up in the late morning two days later, all services are provided by the resort staff. Included in your stay at Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort is your choice of one complimentary activity per day, for a total of two during your stay.
You will need to make this selection with us soon after reserving your tour, or you can do so at the camp, subject to availability. We recommend that you consider scheduling both activities on the same day, the day after your arrival at the resort.
Complimentary Daily Activity:
- Elephant Camp Experience
- Golden Triangle Discovery Excursion
- Spice Spoons Cooking Class
- 90 Minute Spa Treatment
Other inclusions at Anantara Camp include:
- Daily breakfast in the hotel’s main restaurant
- Lunch and Dinner at the hotel’s restaurant of your choice
- Beverages (select range of non-alcoholic drinks, house wines, beer, and spirits)
- In room Minibar
