ROCS Guided Holidays Amazing Thailand including Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Phuket

Breakfast and transfer to Bangkok Airport for your flight to Chiang Rai. Upon arrival drive up to the golden triangle, a large geographic region including parts of Myanmar, Laos, and Northern Thailand. This region has infamy as one of the largest sources of opium production in the world, especially during the 2nd half of the 20th century. Begin your day with a cruise down the majestic Mekong River on board a traditional, hand-made, long-tail boat. Venture into the heart of the Golden Triangle, where Thailand, Myanmar, and Laos merge and take in the spectacular views as the three countries meet around the Mekong’s formidable shores. Next, visit the House Of Opium, where you will learn of the ancient history of humanity’s relationship with opium, the colonialism and global trade context of the opium wars, and the human impact of war, opium production, and consumption. In the evening, check-in at the 5* Le Meridien Chiang Rai Resort. DAY 6 BANGKOK – CHIANG RAI – GOLDEN TRIANGLE EXPLORE
