Golden Triangle

From Chiang Mai

Say bye bye to Chiang Mai and head north
on the trail of the Golden Triangle - a land
of myth and fable. Actually it's the area
where Thailand, Burma and Laos meet,
but it still conjures up images of poppy
fields, Chinese Warlords and smugglers. On this three-day tour experience a slowerpaced Thailand, and one that is largely unchanged. Stay in traditional villages, hike through the jungle, ride the river as well as an elephant, bathe in a waterfall and see some pretty impressive scenery.
