What is it about?

A 4 weeks’ extravaganza which will take you to some of the most amazing places in Thailand and will leave you with some thrilling experiences for the lifetime.

Where will we be visiting?

This exciting travel expedition will take you to explore the capital city Bangkok, the ‘elephant capital’ of Thailand – Surin, beautiful valley town of Sangkhlaburi, and… wait for it… the party island of Koh Phangan!

What will we be doing? How do the itinerary looks like?

Your journey will unfold on your arrival in the capital city of Bangkok. A local coordinator appointed through VolSol will receive you at the airport from where you will be transferred to your accommodation. The first two days of your program will include exploring the bustling city of Bangkok.

On the third day, you will leave for, what is popularly known as, the ‘elephant capital’ of Thailand; Surin. This is where you begin with your first lap of volunteering in Surin. You will be volunteering at an elephant village located near Surin, where you will stay for around 3 to 4 days.

This is followed by a return trip to downtown Surin, where you will stay put for another day to explore the native lifestyle in a typical Thailand small town. Next will be a trip to the western part of Thailand, covered with hilly terrain and pristine lakes, in the beautiful town of Sangkhlaburi; via Bangkok.

This will be your home stay for the coming 5 to 6 days where you will execute your next round of volunteer work. Your main work will revolve around building and renovation work that will include, re-decorating a rural school, installing drainage in a local village, or even building a new village toilet!

After 10 days of handwork and serious volunteering, it’s time to relax and rejuvenate. In order to make that happen, we take you for an exhilarating Thailand experience. Your next halt will be to the scintillating island of Koh Phangan, which will be your homebase for the next 10 days. Make the most of your stay and enjoy every moment of your time.

You will have a plethora of options to experience adventure and fun; such as snorkeling, trekking, kite surfing, or just getting tanned at the beach. One major attraction is the Full Moon Party, which is considered to be one of the most happening party event in the country.

At the end of it all, you will have a spare day to check out any place you may have missed out, or have just found out about, in Bangkok. This brings you to the end of a brilliant and a memorable journey in Thailand.
