Program Overview

Program Description:

Thailand is incredibly diverse – the mountainous jungle up north is populated by numerous minority tribal groups and has stunning national parks, while tropical islands in the south have some of the world’s best beaches and diving spots. It is wonderful to contrast the mega-city bustle and excitement of Bangkok with relaxed and friendly provincial towns and villages. Traveling with us you’ll have the chance to taste a less-touristy slice of the country and uncover the true essence of Thailand.

This 6-week journey takes you through Thailand by exploring some of the most stunning beaches in the world in Koh Lanta and Koh Mook, get hands-on in an environmental project, heading on to volunteer at an elephant sanctuary, and learn about mindfulness in a yoga and meditation retreat. Immerse yourself in local communities; discover Thailand’s fascinating cities and culture; explore the incredible jungle, islands, and beaches; gain skills with lessons in Buddhist meditation, scuba diving, and rock climbing. Join us on a journey to the heart of Thailand for a life-changing Mini Semester Program abroad!
