A unique tour experience available with GoKo Travels lets travellers explore Northern Thailand like never before, by traversing the region by tuk-tuk.
In the past, buses, bikes and even mopeds have all been used to transport visitors around this popular Southeast Asian holiday destination. But the 11 Day Tuk-Tuk Tour offers an entirely new experience of Thailand by putting its guests in the driver’s seat.
Beginning and ending in the picturesque Mae Wang valley, the tour brings together classic aspects of a Thailand holiday with the added bonus of seeing the country from the relative comfort of one of its most iconic modes of transport. Not only do guests learn to drive the tuk-tuk themselves, but the vehicle can also be personalised with their name to make the trip even more special.
GoKo Travel’s unique tour begins with two days of driver training and then takes its guests up to Doi Inthanon, the country’s highest mountain, where the narrow, winding roads are perfectly suited to the tuk-tuk’s nifty set of wheels. Also on the itinerary is a trip to a traditional temple and a visit to a home for rescue elephants; two experiences that offer a true taste of Thailand.
Travellers will get the chance to explore the Doi Inthanon National Park with a trek designed especially for this trip, as well as several visits to local villages to learn more about rural Thai culture. Stopping off in Mae Sariang and Mae Hong Son, the tour includes a free day to rest and relax before heading out again in the tuk-tuks to the mountain town of Pai; the final stop before returning to base camp.
Every step of this tour is escorted by two experienced guides who lead the tuk-tuk convoy and have unbeatable knowledge of this part of Thailand. Luggage will be transported as part of the convoy to each luxury accommodation option, many of which have their own swimming pools.
Breakfast is provided every morning of the tour, along with several evening meals and lunches. Transfers to and from the tuk-tuk base camp are also included with this trip, ensuring that everything is taken care of upon arrival in the country.
This unforgettable experience from GoKo Travels is suitable for all tourists over the age of 18 who want to explore the stunning towns and landscapes of Northern Thailand with a unique twist. Not only does the tour leave its guests with the impressive ability to drive a tuk-tuk, but it also offers a one-of-a-kind adventure that goes above and beyond what you’d expect from a typical holiday to this extraordinary part of the world.
