Kanchanaburi, Thailand

Kanchanaburi province can be visited on a day trip from Bangkok but is well worth extending for a few days exploration. Along with the fascinating history of the Thai-Burma railway construction of the River Kwai Bridge there is a wealth of nature-based activities can also be enjoyed – including mountain biking, trekking, canoeing, bamboo rafting, longtail boat rides to a traditional village and visits to a local temple.

We are - and always have been - mad about travel. For almost 25 years we've been scouring the globe for the best places to stay, the newest routes to take, the perfect people to meet. No-one will care more about your holiday.

Definition of Luxury

Luxury means something different to everyone. Whether you are seeking the silence of vast spaces, the isolation of a private island, the buzz of a new city, the adrenaline of a safari or anything in between, we listen, we learn, we advise.

Fun & Refreshing

We endeavour that every Turquoise experience is unique, fun and refreshing. Travel is all about experiences, about serendipitous moments and endless smiles. It is a joy and an honour to plan each and every Turquoise holiday.
