Itinerary
How it Works
Your Bamba travel pass includes every step of your route using authentic public transport, plus a load of unmissable experiences, so you can rub shoulders with the locals while you see every inch of the glittering temples, fascinating cities and palm fringed coastlines that Thailand has to offer. All journeys and experiences are completely open dated – just book buses and tours on the go through the easy to use app and receive all the information you need to get to the departure point. Bamba recommends taking around 19 days for this route, but you can travel at your own pace for up to 12 months, or skip a couple of stops and do it quicker if you’re short on time! It’s your adventure to do your way.
Bangkok
Kick off your Thai travels in its incomparable capital: Bangkok. This city will take your breath away with its frenzy of activity, fiery street food and towering gold temples – and there’s no better way to explore it than by bike! Join a tour where you’ll get a unique insight into local life by cycling down backstreets away from the tourist trail, then leaving the hustle and bustle behind, crossing the river to ride around old plantations and lush green spaces.
The South
When you’ve had your fix of the big city, take a bus and boat to Koh Tao for your first slice of island paradise. Koh Tao boasts white sand beaches and some of the most incredible marine life in Thailand, so snorkel in the sapphire Andaman Sea or perhaps stay longer and learn to dive! Next stop is Koh Phangan, where your included unmissable experience will take you snorkelling over intensely coloured coral reefs, ziplining through the rainforest canopy and exploring pristine Bottle Beach. Continue to Krabi’s jaw-dropping limestone karst mountain scenery and crystal clear ocean, party in the backpacker haven of Koh Phi Phi and visit iconic Maya Bay, aka the beach from Leonardo DiCaprio’s classic ‘The Beach’! Complete your sojourn of the south with lively Phuket before heading back towards Bangkok.
The North
Time for a change of scenery as you swap blue waters and white sand for emerald green landscapes. Get your culture fix at historic Sukothai, a UNESCO World Heritage City with vast numbers of ancient temple ruins. Next up is Chiang Mai, Thailand’s second biggest city and yet far more relaxed than the bustling capital. Wander round its famous night market, feast on the local delicacy of Khao Soy noodles and check out the buzzing live music scene, before setting off on your overnight trek. This adventure will take you through hill tribe villages and dense jungle, with a night spent in a private camp. Cool off with a refreshing waterfall swim and head back to Chiang Mai, where you can linger as long as you want. Maybe catch a Muay Thai boxing match or take a day trip to nearby Doi Inthanon National Park, eventually letting an overnight train rock you to sleep on your way back to Bangkok.
