From the boiling megalopolis of Bangkok to the exotic trekking in Northern Thailand, this off-the-beaten path program will allow you to discover the unmissable capital and the natural beauty of the mountains: its jungle and waterfalls, its ecosystem and ethnic groups that inhabit.
A classic circuit at the beginning, for the amateurs of ecology, the extreme North is replaced by 3 days of private trekking in the forests of Chiang Mai with lodging in the tribes. Meals are prepared by the villagers. Your French speaking guide can explain the fauna and flora and the different tribes you will be around.

Warning: our trekkings require a good physical condition but do not require any particular sporting performances, the main emphasis being on the cultural discovery of the ecosystem of Northern Thailand and its inhabitants: they are therefore suitable for novice, intermediate or advanced level walkers
