Thailand is a great holiday destination for the adrenaline junkie, if you think lounging on the beach all day is boring fear not, try some of these activities to keep you up on your feet.
This is a popular activity in Thailand, and you will find many locations that offer this. Popular places include Chiang Mai, Pai, and Chumpon. The rapids can vary from anywhere from level 1 to 5. For the ultimate rafting experience try out a rafting journey on a lush tropical jungle, there is bound to be wild animals roaming about as you make a splash along the rapids. You can go for 6 hours, 2 hours or perhaps even an overnight trip. Camping is provided with special tents made out of bamboo. This sort of adventure is offered by companies, especially in the North of Thailand.
Something to consider when picking the location for white water rafting is the level of the rapids, and in some areas, it may not be available all year round either.
For marine life enthusiasts, a visit to the Surin Islands in the Richelieu Rock might be just the thing for you. This is a spot where whale sharks are regularly spotted. The rush of swimming close to 30 ft. giant whales is an experience you won't forget easily. While in the area, look out for the dive sites on Similan Islands, they are some of the best dive sites in Thailand.
If you ever wondered what it is like to fly, well then zip lines are as close as we can get. They are whole loads of fun, with the multi-tiered terraces and bridges amidst beautiful forests. This is an adventure that is highly suggested for all thrill-seeking adventurers.
You can even choose to join a multi-day tour where you connect zip lining with other activities such as white-water rafting, kayaking, Segway tour or rock climbing. If not, you can just spend a few hours zipping from one treetop to the other while relishing the rich verdant forests of Thailand.
It's time to overcome your phobias and plummet into one of Thailand's famous bungee jumps. The tallest jump is in Pattaya. This jump is composed of an excellent crew of jump experts, who will guide you all the way. Jump alongside your loved ones and then relax at the on-site bar, and watch your jumping skills on the big screen! There are plenty of other areas as well across Thailand such as Koh Samui, Phuket, and Chiang Mai. If looking for accommodation try a serviced apartment in Bangkok, such as the likes of Chatrium Residence Riverside Bangkok is a popular choice for visitors to the city.
Thailand is a treasure for experts and novice rock climbers. There are several man-made walls in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and other big cities. Nevertheless, if you want a genuine experience. Head over to Krabi, from there you can go to islands like Railey and Ton Sai. Here you can discover numerous and astonishingly clear waters surrounded by dramatic limestone hills and mountains.
