    Most of it, to be fair! The River Kwai and jungle experiences were amazing. Ko Samui was also great. Possibly under-rated, but the night sleeper trains were a big win for me!

    Thai kick-boxing. This was a great unique experience for all the family which the children loved. Jungle Rafts- staying in the floating lodges was unique as well as floating down the river and rafting was an amazing experience, visiting the Mon village and the local elephant visit - the highlight of the trip. The jungle walk and seeing monkeys in the wild and swimming in the river was fantastic - in Khao Sok
