Anantara Golden Triangle's (www.anantara.com) 90-minute Bamboo Rafting Adventure gives you the opportunity to see Northern Thailand's exotic flora and fauna up close, as you gently drift downstream on the Ruak River - separating Thailand and Burma.
As the raft meanders along, you'll greet migratory birds and fishermen from both countries. Set off at dawn when the river begins to wake, or late afternoon to catch the setting sun. Two expert raftsmen use poles to guide the raft through gentle waters, while you enjoy a picnic breakfast or glass of Champagne. You may even come across the residents of Anantara's Elephant Camp,
enjoying their daily romp in the water. Priced at THB 7,768net including Champagne.
