Thailand (Khao Yai)
At-A-Glance
This was our solo trip with our eldest little Bean – before her mei mei arrived! We saw her wander around sunflowers twice her height, discovered that animals also existed outside of television, and put on a costume to look just like mama. Nestled in the mountains, Khao Yai wasn’t the best place for connectivity – but we found ourselves more connected than ever as we spent 24/7 with her and took in all her different sides.
Main Highlights
PB Valley + The Bloom: PB Valley is the largest vineyard in Khao Yai and there are guided tours for us to learn about grapes – from harvest to bottling! We also visited nearby The Bloom and its gardens beckoned to us with beautiful fields of sunshine flowers
Primo Piazza: It’s like a quaint little Italian village with its rustic set-up, with feeding opportunities with the alpaca – just missing the pizza, pasta and the occasional Vespa riding by
Midwinter Green + The Chocolate Factory: Almost as if we stepped into Europe, Midwinter Green offers a scenary of European castles, live bands, and romantic dinners. The chocolate factory nearby also offers a nice venue for dinners… and of course, chocolate!
Khao Yai National Park: The first national park in Thailand – famous for its accessible waterfalls and wildlife diversity!
Chokchai Farm: Established farm with lots of kid-friendly edu-tours, they offer 2-hour tours to bring us around the grounds. We saw how milk came from cows… all the way to the bottle, and we even had a chance to ride the giant tractor!
Hobbit House: We may not be able to tell the difference as we explore the hobbit houses at Khao Yai, vs. the ones we typically find in New Zealand! Also known as Baan Suan Noi, this place offers a several hobbit-like rooms with different interior themes
