New UK tour operator works directly with local Thai people to make authentic cultural-experiences more accessible.
London, 10th January 2005: Tell Tale Travel, the specialist authentic tour operator, is offering people the chance to gain real insight into life in Thailand within the average two week holiday but without having to travel in a tour group. Tell Tale Travel lets people take part in authentic experiences such as learning secret recipes from a housewife in the Central Plains, discovering medicinal plants with a hilltribe on the remote jungle paths of the north or mixing with the high society in downtown Bangkok.
Tell Tale Travel finds and works closely with hand-picked local people in Thailand so that holidaymakers can stay with them as their guests to witness the real Thailand first-hand. By organising all their accommodation, internal transport and activities, Tell Tale Travel lets holidaymakers focus on getting the most of their time away.
"We are offering something truly groundbreaking. By working hand-in-hand with local Thai people, we can offer the average holidaymaker the kinds of life-changing experiences only possible during a 'year off' but without having to quit their job", says Chris Bland, Director of Tell Tale Travel.
"A typical holiday with Tell Tale Travel is its two week 'Real Thailand' tour* which packs in pretty much everything you need do in Thailand. It includes staying with a village headman near the ancient capital of Ayutthaya, trekking in the stunning UNESCO-rated Khao Yai National Park with your local hosts and living as guests on a family-owned rubber-plantation near the beach in Krabi."
*the 'Real Thailand' tour is a 14-day cultural adventure which includes all accommodation, transport (domestic flights and private transfers) and most meals for £935 per person excluding international flights. Guests should allow a further £30 for local costs (entrance fees etc).
