Group Care In most circumstance students are under the care of their school teachers. Our primary job is to ensure that timings and attractions appear as per arranged itinerary. We help teachers when required and can take responsibility of the group if necessary. Generally we provide 1 guide per 10 group members. Several trips do not require guides and, for this reason, coverage will vary.

Food & Diets Allowances can be made for group members dietary requirements. Vegetarian, Halal, Kosher, Vegan, nut allergies and others are fully catered to. We provide fresh, locally grown, healthy produce whenever possible. We offer a wide range of food that receives good responses from our groups. Types of food depend on the trips location and duration. Barbecues are suitable for campfire activities and lunch boxes are appropriate for picnics. Of course, we can find a diet and eating style to suit your group. Fresh drinking water is provided at camps and in vans. Soft drinks can also be provided upon request.  Other drinks are usually available at camp and tour sites. Ice is safe when provided by our drivers and guides.

Travel and Ticketing Arrangements Air, train, boat and coach tickets can be obtained for the group. We can make travel, hotel and all trip arrangements to save your group organiser a significant amount of time. When necessary tickets will be dispatched by EMS mail or courier. In addition to ticketing for groups we provide a full travel agency service for individuals from our office. We are capable of making arrangements for staff members travelling on their own and have hotel contracts at very attractive rates throughout the region. more information.

Equipment

Equipment is provided according to group needs. For overnight trips accommodated at tribal huts or tents we strongly suggest that a sleeping bag and inflatable pillow be made compulsory for all group members. A list of suitable things to bring will be given at the time of booking.

Budgets and Pricing

Trips are priced according to group strength, types of tours, number of meals, chosen accommodation and other various factors. As group needs are always different we provide quotations tailored specifically to your groups needs.

Example: A complete 4 day, 3 night tour such as "Camp Site" for a group of over 50 persons would cost in the region of between US$80 - $100 per person and would include most meals, tours, accommodation and entrance fees. Train transportation Bangkok-Chiang Mai-Bangkok costs around $ 35

Lunch boxes costs around $4, evening meals from $5 plus. We will prepare a special cost for your group according to your specific requirements.

Hotels generally provide one complimentary half twin room per 16 rooms booked (subject to a maximum of two rooms). We will advise on these policies at the initial booking stages. It is advisable to build this into your group budget so that the teachers costs can be incorporated.

Allergies

A list of participants allergies is requested so that we can make suitable preparations. The details should be taken at the time of student booking and given to us in advance of group arrival.

Safety and security

Safety and security are the most important factors in determining your trip. We will make clear any potential problems that we feel necessary whilst advising you of any situations that you should be aware of. We will not operate tours or excursions in dangerous areas. Safety is our primary concern which is why we provide police protection to overnight groups staying at camps or tribal villages.

Insurance

Our vans carry accident insurance. It is, however, the groups responsibility to obtain suitable policies for the entire trip. We can advise on suitable policies if requested.

Personal property and valuables

Any lost property that is left behind will be forwarded to the school's address if found. Personal property is however, the responsibility of the owner. All valuables should be left in the hotel safe and not in rooms. On overnight trips no Jewellery or valuables should be taken.

Hospitals and health care

We can provide a list of suitable hospitals near-by to the chosen accommodation. This has been requested by previous groups so that the school can arrange a contract in case of emergencies. We will gladly act on your behalf if you so require.
