The Tuk Tuk Club 11 Dages Kør-Selv Eventyr

We will pick you up at 10:00am in Chiang Mai and drive you to our training base for the impending adventure. Upon arrival at our 'base camp' in Mae Wang around 11:30am, we will check you into your accommodation and have lunch together. You probably feel ready to drive from there, but before you can plunge into the adventure, you need to get to grips with driver training. You need to learn to drive the tuk-tuk like a real Thai local driver, so you can glide on the roads like a fish in the water.
Once everyone has mastered the basic skills, we will take you to a temple where you can pray to the Buddha to look after you and your tuk-tuk on the journey! In the evening, it's time to get to know your Tuk Tuk better and enjoy a great Thai party.
The Day Includes:

• Transfer to our 'base camp'
• Full Tuk Tuk Orientation and Training
• Blessing at the local temple
• Lunch and dinner
• Double/triple room in a beautiful resort in Mae Wang - air conditioning, private bathroom (single rooms can be requested, but a surcharge applies).

After a breakfast that would make even the most breakfast-shy people smack their lips, we'll dive into more driver training and build on the impressive skills you learned yesterday. We will review all the details for the trip ahead so you will be ready to tackle the road with all the confidence and swag you have in you!

But we won't stop there! We need to move on to an elephant shelter that takes elephant welfare seriously. Here you will get a chance to learn about the history of elephants, what the team at the elephant home do, and - of course - spend time with the big soft fighting on their terms. You'll even have the opportunity to go for a swim with them in the local river - so remember to bring your swim trunks!

After a round of lunch, we will drift gently down the river on bamboo rafts, like a team of magnificent explorers. And when we return to our base camp, you will once again have the chance to shine with your new-found driving skills.

So prepare to be challenged, entertained and inspired on this incredible trip!

The Day Includes:

• Transfer to our “base camp”
• Full training as a Tuk Tuk driver
• “Making merit” at the local temple
• Breakfast, lunch and dinner
• Double/triple room in a beautiful resort in Mae Wang - with air conditioning and private bathroom (single rooms can be requested, but a surcharge applies).

After an early breakfast, we head out on the road and take small country roads towards Thailand's highest mountain, Doi Inthanon. Your guide will drive at the front of the Tuk Tuk and we will travel in convoy with the support vehicle in the background. The first 20-30 km of the route is simple with soft, winding roads, but we soon hit stunning turns, incredible views and small villages with Karen mountain tribes as we move towards the national park. Enjoy the surprised expression of everyone when they see the Tuk Tuk's so high up in the mountains - believe us, novelty doesn't cover it at all - and we'll stop often to look at different villages/vantage points and, of course, taste the good coffee and snacks in small villages. Lunch will be in a snack bar along the road - real northern Thai style.

We arrive at our accommodation in the late afternoon before hopping on another classic Thai means of transport - a “Songtaew” - a shared taxi converted from a pick-up truck that takes us to the mountaintop.

The Day Includes:

• Tuk Tuks and Support Vehicle
• Breakfast and dinner (lunch at own expense - (+/- 50THB))
• National Park Treafgifter
• Double/Triple/Quad shared accommodation in Doi Inthanon - this is the most basic accommodation on the trip, but it has been chosen so that you are located in the most beautiful area and perfectly placed for the trekking trip tomorrow. Fan-cooled, en suite bathroom.

After an early breakfast, we give our faithful Tuk Tuks a well-deserved break and embark on adventures in the national park on foot. With our super cool trekking guide by our side, we will explore the amazing forest in the area on a 6 km trek where we can enjoy spectacular views and a mandatory waterfall. Along the way we will be served lunch on the trekking tour, and our guide will be a true treasure trove of information about both the local people and the wild wildlife that lives around us. Note: This trek is suitable for everyone, as long as you can walk 4-5 km. The pace is calm, but there are some ups and downs — after all, these are the mountains we are in! We return to our accommodation in the afternoon, where we have plenty of time to rest, relax and then enjoy a sumptuous village feast with delicious Thai food.

The Day Includes:

• Trek with guide
• Breakfast, lunch and dinner
• Sharing a room in either twin, triple or quadruple room in Doi Inthanon.

It's time to jump back on the road and today we move out of Doi Inthanon National Park towards our destination in Mae Sariang, close to the Burma/ Myanmar border. Our route winds through incredibly beautiful scenery and some very quiet roads for the first part of the day, and then we hop on the main road for the last few hours until Mae Sariang. Tall trees, steep hills and more than a few sharp turns are the menu of the day and, as always, we'll make frequent stops to enjoy the area, let the Tuk Tuk cool off and let the traffic pass (and watch everyone take pictures of you, because everyone is still amazed at the sight of the Tuk Tuks up here). We arrive in Mae Sariang in the late afternoon and check into our fantastic riverside accommodation for the night. Mae Sariang is worth exploring with friendly people, a fascinating mix of Thai and Burmese culture (Mae Sariang is home to many Burmese Muslims) and some interesting temples. Or cool off in the pool, have a cold beer on the terrace overlooking the river and watch the sun go down - or do all three and enjoy life on the road!

Today's Includes:

• Tuk Tuks and Support Vehicle
• Breakfast
• Shared riverside accommodation in Mae Sariang - with air conditioning and a private bathroom.

Get ready for a spectacular trip to Mae Hong Son today!

Make sure you have your camera and Go Pros ready, because this is a day you won't forget! After a day of exciting adventures, we finally arrive at our destination. You'll have plenty of time to check in, take a refreshing dip in the resort's pool and soak up the atmosphere for you in the epic sunset bar, which is nestled in lush rice paddies. And of course, what better way to celebrate our journey than with a cold beer in hand?

We set off early in the morning and navigate our way through the last few hundred turns as we slow our way back towards Chiang Mai and back to our original base camp from days 1 and 2. You will notice a big change in the villages, the people and the temperature (!) as we move further and further down the mountain and then through a series of small villages and towns on our route. With plenty of opportunities to stop and explore, we'll take it quietly today and we'll arrive back in Mae Wang in the late afternoon/early evening.
