ISAAN LIFE
Step beyond the tourist trail and discover Isaan — Thailand’s warm and welcoming northeast. Join us for a 4-day program where travellers and locals connect through sharing, stories, and a shared purpose.
Day 1
Welcome in Isaan! Meet your local guide and tour leader in Udon Thani and begin your journey through Northeast Thailand. Grab breakfast if needed, then head to Kho Khiao Homestay with a coffee stop along the way. After settling in and enjoying a home-cooked lunch, relax or join farm activities, explore the village by bike, or hike to a nearby cave and temple. Dinner is shared at the homestay, followed by a relaxed evening.
Day 2
Start the day early by joining a traditional alms-giving with local monks, then enjoy breakfast and say goodbye to your host family. Travel on to Nakhon Phanom, stopping in Na Wa village to learn about local life and unique home industries. After a local lunch, continue to Sakhon Nakhon for a late afternoon boat ride on Nong Han Lake and a visit to Don Sawan island. Enjoy dinner at a popular local restaurant before heading to your hotel in Nakhon Phanom to relax.
Day 3
After breakfast, ride an Isaan-style tuk tuk to start the Co van Kessel bike and boat tour, exploring Nakhon Phanom and cruising the Mekong along the Thai–Lao border. After lunch on your own, visit a pottery village to try the craft yourself and walk through rice fields and rubber plantations. Visit Ho Chi Minh’s historic house before returning to your hotel. In the evening, join a traditional Bai Sri Su Kwan farewell ceremony with dinner and local dance to say goodbye to Isaan and its people. Afterwards, return to your hotel.
Day 4
Enjoy your breakfast at the hotel before check-out. Your tour leader and tour guide will accompany you during your private transfer to Nakhon Phanom airport where it’s time to say goodbye.
