Use the hashtag #BCAMABAD to remind and encourage others to have an early detection plan.
This is your first stop. Yes, really. (Gasp! Excited face! Sqquuuueee!) You'll spend your first three days and nights in Thailand at the Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle. Which also happens to double as a natural paradise surrounded by majestic mountains within an exquisite bamboo jungle close to some of Thailand’s oldest civilizations. So, you know, it should be ok.
Once the center of all poppy cultivation in Thailand, three countries come together in this legendary location – Thailand, Laos, and Burma, hence "Golden Triangle." Expect scenic views, amazing local architecture and surrounding tea and coffee plantations. You will be able to meet the resident elephants, and supports the Golden Triangle Elephant Foundation. The foundation rescues and saves abused elephants.
You'll stay in deluxe tented accommodations in the middle of the jungle. Yes, this will be the most amazing glamping experience of your life.
These glorious glamping accommodations feature epic things like locally made hardwood furniture & exquisite open air decks.
And these bathtubs, OMG. They’re hand-hammered, built for two, copper and the stuff dreams are made of.
You’ll enjoy views of Burma at this chill spot. Watch herds of water buffalo as they come down for their afternoon bath on Myanmar's side of the Ruak River.
It's normal to have visitors like these!! Again, the resort is heavily involved with helping to rescue elephants. The Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation which also partakes in elephant therapy that helps autistic children and assists conservationists to protect the elephants living wild in Thailand.
This is where you'll dine, unless of course you go AWOL and decide what we've planned isn't good enough for you and you get the onsite chef to make you a picnic lunch you can eat on a nature walk in the jungle and/or with elephants (he does that). But you know, your choice.
You'll clink glasses here at the Burma Bar.
Did we mention this is the first leg of your journey?
The second, glorious stop on your ‘Tour of Thailand’ is Four Seasons Chiang Mai, where you’ll further immerse yourself in the lush tropics of Northern Thailand as located on the freaking gorgeous terraced rice fields of the Mae Rim Valley.
Chiang Mai is in the heart of an area once known as the Lanna Kingdom, meaning “the land of a million rice fields.” While its vibrant blend of cultures gives the area a distinctive charm, the landscape is still covered with vivid green rice fields. Chiang Mai is often fondly called the Rose of the North for its beauty and spirit. Expect to pick up exquisite hand-crafted goods and see centuries-old temples. Or maybe have a hot-air balloon adventure?
Ever thought you’d have your own Thai Sala? Or know what it is? You sure will when you stay in one of these gorgeous Upper Garden Pavilions.
Expect this expansive room with tons of space, locally made hardwood furnishings, lush views and THAT BATHROOM.
But that Thai Sala tho. It means on top of your own private, outdoor living space with a wood floor, high ceiling with fan, northern Thai-style daybed, dining table and chairs.
So many dining options to choose from! This is a culinary experience peeps. Dine in your Sala, privately dine in the Rice Barn or choose to have breakfast in the rice fields. PS – there’s also a cooking school if you want to get your Betty Crocker on.
Sip a signature Mango & Sticky Rice cocktail in a lounge named after jasmine.
Or just relax by a perfect pool in the midst of the rice paddies surrounded by tropical fronds.
Last but you better believe not least, Koh Samui. This beach paradise is quintessential Thailand. Hammocks and lounge chairs await your already well-rested bum at every turn.
Take it all in. White sandy beaches, clear waters, and nearby islands in the distance…
What about your room you ask? You don’t get a mere room, but a whole freakin’ villa!
Remember that villa we just showed you? It comes with a pool. Just for you.
Eating at a world-class restaurant is great and all but how about this beach barbeque complete with a lantern send-off finale.
World’s freshest lobster Thai style? Check. Fresh coconut smoothies by the beach? Check, check.
Sip wine while perched over the jungle.
Must try: Muay Thai Adventure. Learn this style of Thai boxing from a pro, then head to the spa for a full body massage, and finish the day with VIP seats to an actual match.
