Don’t be scared to get a little crazy in this country….it’s made to be mad!
A lot of adventurous types can still get put off by a very un-adventurous travel factor….money. This often means that getting to far-flung destinations such as Asia and Australia are a pipe-dream rather than anything else.
However, there are plenty of opportunities to find a cheap flight online, especially if you are willing to risk waiting to the last minute. Otherwise, try flight specialists such as DialAFlight who can source a cheap flight to Thailand for only £369 (to Bangkok including taxes).
But what can you do once you get there to make the most of this buzzing country? Full moon parties and tuk-tuks around Bangkok all sounding a bit…tame? Too many elephant treks and cocktails by the beach?
Well do not fear. There is still adventure galore to be found in the rich Thai landscape – and plenty of adrenaline-raising ways to experience the views and heritage of the country.
One activity which comes highly recommended is the Tree Top Adventure Park in the forest of Koh Chang and Pattaya. Located amdist the forest but with tree-line views of the ocean, the course has over 30 paths to choose from (…and extremely reliable instructors to trust with your safety….).
I had been tree-swinging before in Guatemala, but there were only two courses and it became pretty limiting. This tree top park is fantastic for real adventurer who want to experiment – or who have been before.
As well as beginner’s ropes and instructions, there are harder tree-line routes for more experienced participants – and once you start whizzing through the forest at top speed, you’ll only want more and more, so expect to get addicted.
For a different kind of rush, if you’re looking for a new thrill in Bangkok, then why not let someone else take the hits for you. I got sick and tired of the endless bars, partying and peddling hawkers – and found the Thai Boxing nights at Lumphini Stadium.
There’s huge atmosphere, pumping music and incredible physical feats – the colour and the taste of Thai culture is a real hit compared to the tourist-trap stuff you get in the city centre.
