May 18, 2021 Kandra Bartel

Chonburi (Thai: ชลบุรี, RTGS: Chon Buri,  [tɕ͡ʰōn bū.rīː] ( listen)) is an eastern province (changwat) of Thailand. Neighboring provinces are (from north clockwise) Chachoengsao, Chanthaburi, and Rayong. To the west is the Gulf of Thailand. Chonburi is home to Thailand's largest tourist oriented city, Pattaya (also spelled Phatthaya), it is the only province outside the Bangkok Metropolitan Area to connect by an eight-lane motorway to Bangkok, 80 km distant. It is home to Thailand's largest and primary seaport, it has a thriving migrant and expatriate population. Due to these factors, the province's population is growing rapidly, with currently some 1.7 million residents (albeit with a large floating or unregistered population). The registered population as of 31 December 2012 was 1.36 million.

We had a great time one of the best trip we have been in Thailand. Donna (tour guide) was amazing explaining the history & Thailand culture. Our first stop was Bang Pa in Palace, worth visiting the palace as it is well kept with the original features. One of the main attraction was the Historic City of Ayutthaya such a interesting place to walk around. We carried on admiring other temples included in the tour. The time allocated to each stop was just right giving us sufficient time to explore the temples by ourselves. The river cruise back to Bangkok was quite nice and relaxing after spending all morning walking. The river cruise provided a buffet lunch with a variety of food, which was good and plenty of. The only down side was the big group as we do prefer small group. Nevertheless, in this occasion Donna dedicate enough time answering all questions which made the trip more intimate. The pick up from and return to the hotel was on time and quite smooth. We definitely recommend this tour.

Almost 3 hrs stick with elephants, activities started with a brief lecture on general informations (physical, personality and trait, habitat) about elephants, followed by feeding elephants with tons of banana and pineapple, making vitamin for elephants (and of course, feed them), before taking them to a mud puddle and playing mud with them, then given them a bath (and brush) in a pond (your garments will surely soak with water and mud, so dress appropriately). After that, taking a bath, changing clothes, having a meal and finally ended the program by learn to make paper from elephant poop. It should be noted that this place provides ecotourism, thus there is no elephant riding or performing. I had a great time with elephants here. Having a close contact with them, hug them, feed them at their mouths (yes, not at their trunks), play with them, brush them. Luckily, the weather in that day was not so hot and there were only 3 attendances in our round. Therefore, 1 elephant per attendance ! Every elephants here live in open surroundings. All of them looked happy, especially for the younger one which was very active and cheerful (he lay down and pretended to be dead, soo...o cute, also he splashed water to us). Staffs were very nice, especially for our guide (Mr Tono) who had a good sense of humour and entertained us with some interesting facts. This is the ultimate elephant experience in my life which worth every minutes and every baht spent. Highly recommend for animals lovers. Don't miss this! Visited at 10 december 2020

Best adventure in Thailand. Been living here 15 years and only just found this gem. Me and my daughter had the most amazing and exiting trip ever, with ATV & Buggy adventures. Threw the jungle, plantations, hills, streams and even waterfalls. Bit nervous at first but the pro staff soon got our confidence up. We loved it. Thanx guys

May met us at our hotel which was quite out of the way. She took us to all the significant sites and provided a very good commentary. Her English was excellent. We rode the ferry to the flower market, and a Tuk tuk to the Grand Palace. We were supposed to have a 8 hour tour but because we were jet lagged we cut it short.

Experience life in a new dimension at an art gallery like no other! These unconventional paintings use an art technique where two-dimensional pictures are turned into three-dimensional images through the use of optical illusions. There are five zones within the museum: Aqua and Safari, Classic Art, Fantasy, Nature and Modern Art. Float down Venetian canals, venture through the jungle, roam ancient temples and escape a shark attack! The gallery is fully interactive, so you can touch, climb, pose and take photos with all the paintings. Don't make the mistake of thinking this is just for kids, adults get sucked into hours of fun here too! The museum's newest feature interacts with the audience by detecting facial expressions and movement. Swing by and check it out for yourself!

Inclusions: Entrance Ticket

Exclusions: Food and Drinks, Air-conditioned vehicle

The giant Buddha statue is a MUST to visit the in Phuket. But try to go in the early morning as the sun will rise facing the Big Buddha and you can get a nice picture of the Buddha with clear blue sky behind.
