Simply an arrival day, or should I say night, into the capital of Thailand-Bangkok.
After a ten hour flight from Seattle on Korean Airlines, we made my way to customs. Be sure to ask Adventure Life for a quick-pass through customs as the queue is about two hours. We grabbed our bags, cleared security and found our guide eagerly awaiting our arrival. Typically, traffic in Bangkok, a city of ten million, is bumper to bumper but arrival into Thailand at 11pm and exiting the airport around 1:30 am allowed us to quickly navigate the desolate streets. Our hotel was perched on the banks of the Chao Phraya River which flows to the Gulf of Thailand and then onto the Indian Ocean. Riva Surya is a beautiful hotel perfect for our first night in Bangkok.
Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
