Day 15: It's time to check out & say your goodbyes It’s not going to be easy, but today is checkout day and the time to say goodbye after an incredible 15 days in Thailand. I’m sure you’ll be reminiscing over breakfast and trying to piece all those happy emotions together before you set off on your journey home or to your next destination. The tour finishes in Chiang Mai, and most people book a return flight into Bangkok, so you’ll need to consider that and book a connecting ticket. We suggest leaving Chiang Mai in the morning and booking a flight from Bangkok late afternoon (we always recommend planning 4 hours between landing and your next flight). The final day has no plans, so you can leave anytime that works best for you! 📍 Location: Chiang Mai 🍽️ Included meals: Breakfast 🙌🏼 Key highlights: Check out & onward travel ‼️ Important: Those who opted for the longer Best of Asia—29-day trip will continue on.
