Travel
in this part of Thailand
is very safe and accidents
are very rare but still
safety is always a priority.
Under the terms of our TAT licence we will provide accident
insurance to cover medical bills
in case of an injury but
it is advised that you have
your own comprehensive accident
insurance. |

| |
|
Wear
light clothes as walking and cycling
in this part of the world
can be hot and sweaty work.
Shorts, T shirt and a sun
hat are ideal, but remember to appy some sun cream. |
| |
|
Although
day time temperatures are
usually hot you will need
at least a warm jumper for
the evenings and early mornings.
In the cold season temperatures
can get very cold! |
| |
|
In the rainy
season from April to October
bring a rain coat and a
dry change of clothes. Rain is possible at any time of the year so it will probably be worth packing a lightweight rain coat even in the dry season. |
| |
|
Although
hiking boots aren't a necessity
at least a sturdy pair of
running shoes should be
worn. These will be ideal for both the cycling and light walking. Maybe bring some sandals to wear around the village stay after the days activities and to walk around the local village. |
