Enjoy a stay at the luxurious Kirimaya Resort in Khao Yai National Park, just two hours drive northeast of Bangkok. The resort boasts innovatively designed tented villas, superb spa facilities and a Jack Nicklaus golf course. The National park itself is the second largest in Thailand. If the jungle is not for you then pay a visit to a nearby Tuscan- style village. Stroll along cobblestone streets lined with gourmet food shops, cafes and art galleries. To add to the Italian flavour a number of wine estates have also cropped up including PB Valley, GranMonte and Village Farm. Indeed the region’s wines are regarded among the best in the country.
