Bangkok is a magical city steeped in culture; some of the biggest, oldest and most beautiful temples are located here. You can visit one of the world’s biggest reclining statues of Buddha. When you are done taking in the sights, Bangkok has enough bargain shopping opportunities to keep you occupied for a lifetime, and to add to the excitement you can even visit the world famous floating market. In other words, if you like to shop you will be in heaven!
To the north of Ko Phangan is a little island called Koh Tao. Being far less developed than all the other islands you’ll visit (there is only one main road), Koh Tao is a great place to kick back and relax. Another huge attraction is that this is one of the best and most affordable places in Thailand to go diving. There are over 40 PADI certified scuba diving schools here. The USA is the only country that certifies more PADI divers. You can do all your dive certificates, or if you are already qualified, go diving on some of the most amazing reefs around Thailand.
Ko Nang Yaun is a set of small twin islands just off Koh Tao. They have a band of sand that joins them, and when at high tide, it looks like people standing on the sand are walking on water! The view from the highest point is striking and spectacular! When you get back down, you will dive into the water and snorkel around the amazing coral reefs and see all the tropical fish swim right up to you. Then you can lay back, relax and enjoy a delicious cocktail as the sun comes down over the beach.
One evening we will hike up to one of the view points on the main island and have a BBQ cooked up by the locals and enjoy the amazing sunset!
Ko Phangan is most famous for the Full Moon Party, where 10,000 to 30,000 people come to party on the beach, illuminated by the bright full moon. This, however, isn’t nearly the only thing this stunning island has to offer. You’ll also have opportunities to experience snorkeling, trekking, Thai boxing, waterfalls, jet skiing, and ATV riding, just to name a few. Although Ko Phangan is more known for its beach parties, pool parties and foam parties!
Ko Phangan is so close to paradise for so many travelers that they don’t want to leave; People have been known to go for a week and end up staying for their entire lives! We make your stay on Ko Phangan long enough to fully get caught up in the magic of this amazing, exhilarating and beautiful island.
Our resort is right on the beach where they have the Full Moon Party, so you don’t need to worry about taxi’s or boats when you are ready to go home, you can simply walk home! This is a special perk to traveling with LBW as normally its impossible to get accommodation right on the full moon beach
Watch in wonder as one of your group members takes the leap of faith off of a cliff as high as 12 meters! Once your feet leave the comfort of solid ground, nothing but pure blue ocean awaits you below! These daredevil favourites can range from 6 to 12 metres in height, varying according to the tide.
You will get a chance to see an amazing view point while in Railay the trek is up a pretty steep cliff, where you will use ropes and rocks to climb up to the top. After a long hike the reward at the end is worth every step, looking over all of Railay seeing two of the beautiful bays.
As you plunge beneath the surface you will discover a whole new underwater world. There are a wide variety of tropical fish to see including the black tip reef sharks! Every island we go to in Thailand has great areas to snorkel so if you love to snorkel you will get many opportunities to do so.
