Day 1Bangkok/Overnight TrainGet out there and grab a few bargains - sarongs, bags or souvenirs - at the Pratunam wholesale market, zip along the khlongs in a longtail or maybe sample some of Bangkok's exciting nightlife along Khao San Road. There's time for a soothing Thai massage, some more shopping at MBK or a moment of spirituality - at the the striking Wat Arun, before boarding the overnight sleeper train south.
Day 3Khao Sok National ParkClimb the long ladder to your simple tree house, home for the night. Take to the walking trails to spot some of the plethora of creatures that inhabit this tropical piece of paradise or ride a tube downriver to soak up the stunning waterside scenery.
Days 4-5Khao Sok RafthouseTravel by boat to tucked-away rafthouses on the beautiful Raja Phraba Lake. Set deep in the heart of the jungle and surrounded by fantastic limestone peaks, you'll wake up to the exotic sounds of gibbons and birds.
