Full Moon Experience in Thailand

Tour Details
Introduction
The best way to experience a Full Moon Party! This awesome trip takes
you to the coolest hotspots on Koh Phangan as we gear up for one of the biggest
beach parties in the world. Head to Slip n Fly for the day for DJ's and one of
the craziest water slides in South East Asia, kick back at a sunset pool party,
and party on into the morning at the infamous Full Moon Party.
Day 1: Bangkok
So you’re here, probably tired but excited, anxious but eager,
cautious but curious. Landing here for the first time is a roller coaster of
emotions, but we got you covered. One of the TruFam will be at the airport
waiting to whisk you away to the backpacker hub and traveller host spot of Khao
San Road where you will be checked into our accommodation and can meet the rest
of the group and your new travel family. Day 1 is free to rest up, explore the
area, get a massage (~£8!!), get a beer (~£1.50!!), get
some delicious street food (~£1 a dish!!) or chill by the hotel pool
(£0!!) - you get the picture, there’s loads to do, and things are pretty damn
cheap. In the evening, we’ll head to one of our favourite restaurants for
delicious food, strong drinks, and the start of lifelong friendships. After we
all know far too much about each other, we’ll hit Khao San Road and find out
why backpackers and travellers of all flavours, shapes and sizes flock here to
meet people, party and start their adventures. But beware, the local beer
(Chang) and mixers are S-T-R-O-N-G
Day 2: Bangkok (1B)
You came here for the culture, right? Sort of? Well, today you’re
gonna get it. After a relaxing morning by the pool (or in bed sleeping off that
Changover - we warned you), we’ll grab a Bangkok river taxi (or Longtail boat)
and cruise down Bangkok's answer to the river Thames or the Hudson River, the
Chao Phraya. The river and back canals are a great way to get a ‘behind the
scenes’ look at this awe-inspiring city. After taking in the sights of the
city, we hit up two impressive and prestigious temples, Wat Arun and Wat Pho,
where we will learn a bit about Thai history, culture and religion before
grabbing a traditional Tuk Tuk back to the Hotel. In the evening we can either
hit up Khao San road again or sample some of Bangkok's other nightlife, or have
a chilled one!
Meals Included:
Breakfast
Day 3: Bangkok/Khao Sok (1B)
That might
sound like the title to a dodgy horror film, but it’s not (as far as we know),
and today will most certainly not be the stuff of nightmares. You have a free
morning to do as you please. Like the Tru VIP that you are, you’ll be being
treated to a nice, relaxing massage, before being escorted with your entourage
(the rest of the group) to the train station where we board the comfortable and
quirky night train to our next destination. You can use the time on the train
to get to know your group better, take in views of the Thai countryside, catch
up on your travel journal entries, or just catch up on some sleep. When we
arrive in the morning you're in for a treat, so sleep well, and dream of
paradise, cos that’s where you’re headed.
Meals Included:- Breakfas
Day 4: Khao Sok (1L, 1D)
When we say
this place is out of this world, we are not messing around. Think Jurassic park
scenery without the scary dinosaurs, low hanging clouds float over the
mountains and jungle which surround the beautiful, crystal clear lake at the
centre of the national park. You will witness some of the most mind-blowing
scenery (VERY Instagram worthy) you have ever seen as we cruise through the
lake on the way to our floating resort. After checking into your own floating
bungalow, spend the rest of the day kayaking, tanning, or just floating about
in a giant tube with a beer. In paradise. That’s our kind of day. Where do you
eat and drink at a floating resort? At a f loating restaurant & bar, of
course. Sounds cool right? How about if we told you all the food is delicious,
all included, and served buffet style? Ok, we’ll stop.
Meals Included:- Lunch- Dinner
Day 5: Khao Sok/Koh Phangan (1B)
After an
early start, some world-class views from your bungalow door, and a quick
breakfast, it’s time to hit the island, and not just any island, our favourite
island of them all - Koh Phangan. If this is why you’re here, then you have
picked the right people to travel with. Noone, and I mean no-one knows how to
have a better time on this island than us. There are many reasons why our f
irst office and many of the TruFam live here, and we’re excited to show some to
you. The first one being the beautiful, secluded, magical little Bottle Beach.
This is what backpacking in Thailand used to be like about 20 years ago, it
still has that lazy, secluded feel that only comes from being cut off from the
rest of the island and the world. Yes, Koh Phangan is famous for its parties as
well as it’s beauty, but if you come here and just experience the nightlife
without seeing places like this, you’re messing up. As always though, we are
here to prevent that, so unlike most people who visit here, you’ll get to
experience a night at this magical beach in Tru exclusive style. You won’t
forget this for a while. Promise.
Meals Included:- Breakfast
Day 6: Koh Phangan
Other than
Khao Sok, this is probably the best place to wake up in the world. You’ll hear
the sound of the waves gently lapping at the shore and the warmth of the suns
rays beaming through your window. Push open the door, and you’ll see the
turquoise water meeting a backdrop of white sand and blue sky, as the cool
ocean breeze enters the room. How would you prefer to wake up? By running
straight into the sea, heading to the bar for a banana shake and bottle of
water, hiking up to the viewpoint for insta worthy postcard pics, rolling over
and going back to sleep? However you choose to spend your last few hours in
paradise on earth is fine with us, it’s your holiday after all. In the
afternoon we’ll work off those rum and cokes with an introduction to Muay Thai,
or Thai Boxing, Thailand’s national sport. Well, we did tell you our tours kick
ass. After a shower and a dip in the pool back at our next resort, we’ll
explore a bit of the more lively side of the island and maybe even hit up one
of the full moon warm-up parties as we get ready for the big night.
Day 7: Koh Phangan (1L)
Today you’re
a pirate, or not. Whatever. But we do get to sail around on a big boat, soak up
some stunning views, some rays, some massive tunes, and best of all, plenty of
good vibes from your fellow travellers and shipmates. AKA your new travel fam.
You’ve seen the island from land, now it's time to see it from the sea. Think
blue oceans, blue skies, green trees, grey mountains, white beaches and bronzed
bodies. When we have had enough of the gorgeous views and good times above the
ocean, we can take a dip with some snorkels and take in the out of this world
scenery below the boat. After a sunset ride back to the hotel, we’ll freshen up
and hit the beach for some dinner and perhaps a little boogie to shake off
those seal legs. In the evening, head back to our accommodation for a dip,
dinner and drinks.
Meals Included:- Lunch
Day 8: Koh Phangan
Are you ready for the best day of your life? Well, you better get some
zzz's in because tonight we're going big, like BIG BIG! Today we're going on an
epic Island Road Trip before getting the party started for the best evening of
the trip so far! In the evening, we meet in our hostel for the ultimate UV
painting session to get us ready for The Full Moon Party. It’s legendary, it’s
spectacular, and you couldn’t be with a better crew. TruCrew that is. When we
first started the Full Moon Party tour, no other companies did it for the same
reason we didn’t at first, namely because it’s such a big party with so many
people. Well, we can confidently say we have done more Full Moon Parties
between us than probably any other company on earth, so naturally, we know how
to do it best. Trust us. We take you to all the best pre-drinking spots before
hitting up The Full Moon Party. If you’re hardcore enough to make it to sunrise
(It’s the best part) join us at the after-party which starts at 6am. You know
the old saying.. No rest for the wicked aye?
*Please note, The Full Moon
Party is on a specific date each month so our activities can sometimes shuffle
around, but don’t stress, you won’t miss anything!*
Day 9: Koh Phangan
If you were dancing with us until the sun came up, then you’ll
probably need today to rest up and get some sleep. Or if you’re really
hardcore, then you might still even be partying. Either way, today is yours to
do as you please. Enjoy the calm after the storm in the pool, in bed, exploring
the island or taking another relaxing Thai massage on us. After the final
sunset of our epic adventure in party paradise, we’ll go for one last group
dinner as a group. All good things must come to an end, so let’s make sure the
last night is one to remember.
Day 10: Koh Phangan
The tour might be over, but the dream lives on!! Unlike other
companies who will forget about you at the end of the trip, you’re welcome to
hang with us as long as you like. You’re part of the Tru Fam now, and we are at
your service fo’ life. We homies now homie, so you’re welcome where we are at
any time. If you need to move on somewhere else, then your travel ninja will be
happy to help sort everything you need. If you’re travelling for a while and
need advice, or just to hear a friendly voice, give us a call or come see us at
any time.
