There are a number of necessary items to bring when you join one of our overnight programmes, so please continue reading to checklist them before you set off.
Recommendations
- Daypack/small backpack
- Spare clothes
- Torch/flashlight
- Toiletries
- Towel
- Sunglasses
- Sun cream
- Insect repellent*
- Water bottle
*Malaria is not an issue in this region, but there are cases of Dengue Fever from time to time. We recommend using insect repellent, and top up regularly. A mosquito net is provided at your homestay.
Advice
- Suitcases, and bags which use wheels, are extremely impractical for the trip - use daypack/backpack only. You are welcome to leave large luggage at our office.
- Please don't forget that we need the balance of the fee paid in cash (Thai Baht) when we pick you up - there are no ATMs once your trek begins, so please have it prepared in advance. This cash is used to cover fees incurred during your trip, such as the homestay.
- Electricity is limited in most villages, and non-existent in some, so don't rely on being able to charge batteries during the programme.
- We do not provide items for rental, so please check the 'what to bring' section carefully, to ensure you have what you need.
