After mastering the ancient art of Muay Thai, we head back for a quick shower before we visit Bangkok’s famous temple Wat Pho! Yeah, it’s a beauty! After a busy day, we spend the evening relaxing and indulging in a traditional Thai massage. Getting out every knot from today’s class.. Or yesterday’s uncomfortable window seat on the flight. Same, same. Activities - Muay Thai Class - Temple visit

Day 3

DAY 3- We’re going to Koh Phangan! It’s a free morning so grab a lie-in, an early sunrise wander with a green smoothie or hit up the markets for one last bargain. In the afternoon we catch a flight to Surat Thani. Will we be sad to leave Bangkok? Of course but...Beaches here we come! We catch a flight and boat over to Koh Phangan where we’ll be spending the next few days. Koh Phangan is home to golden sandy beaches, some of the best sunsets in the world, so it’s only right we spend a few days here. Have the afternoon to do your thing and explore before taking part in a sunset yoga session. Perfect that cobra pose. Relaxation at its finest! Activities - Sunset Yoga

Day 4

Day 4 - Bike riding baby! Good Morning! Today we’re exploring the island by bike! No lycra needed, lycra isn't big, and it’s not pretty. Our travel ninjas know the spots to visit! With such diversity, unspoilt natural beauty,rich, authentic living, Koh Phangan is so much more than Full Moon Parties. Time to explore! Get a feel for local life and immerse yourself in your tropical surroundings. As we ride along a mix of small roads and paths to some unexplored luscious green jungle trails of Phangan’s flattest stunning countryside. Passing coconut plantations, tropical farms and visiting local community villages. A Tru Thai experience like no other.

Are flights & insurance included?

While we would love to include flights and insurance in our trip packages, it is not feasible to have a fixed price due to the diverse destinations, trip durations, and individual coverage needs of our travellers from around the globe. However, once you register for the trip, we will assign you a dedicated Travel Concierge. They will work closely with you to arrange the ideal flights and insurance tailored to your specific adventure. Rest assured, our team is here to ensure you have a smooth and hassle-free travel experience from start to finish!

Why should I book now?

After the last unexpected disruption to travel caused by the..c word..people are now more eager than ever to venture out and explore the world, determined not to miss out on any experiences. Global Work & Travel works on a first-in-best-dressed basis. Booking earlier ensures that you don’t miss out on the best intake, season, placements and more! We recommend our travellers take 6-12+ months to plan their trip for a reason - to make sure you’ve got everything organised perfectly, stress-free. As a Global Traveller you’ll get exclusive access to gWorld, our personalised app where you can keep all of your important documents and trip details in one spot and gain insider access to everything Global. This is where you will find exclusive Marketplace Deals, a unique social network to connect you with other like-minded Global Travellers, access to our Academy with an ever-growing range of skills & languages, and so much more. Think all of your favourite apps merged into one, but like, better? Why not give yourself something to look forward to by booking that trip!

Can I travel with a friend or partner?

Yes you can! Simply tell your Trip Coordinator after booking that your friend is also going and they can link your profiles. For most of our trips we should be able to have you and your friends placed together or nearby. Meaning that you can live, work, play & travel together! But wait there's more! Not only can you travel the world with your besties at your side, you can also earn some extra cash towards your own trip just by referring your friends to Global Work & Travel. You can learn more about the great referral rewards program inside your gWorld account once you join. And for those who decide to go-it-solo, we’ve made it easier to meet other Global Travellers in the same region as you. Just like any other social platform, you’ll be able to interact, share, chat and meet with some really cool people who are doing trips just like you!

Can I bring my pet along?

At Global Work & Travel, we share a deep love for animals and fully understand the special bond you have with your pet. We recognise the challenges of embarking on a trip without them. Due to travel restrictions, requirements, and limited pet-friendly accommodations among our host organisations, we regretfully cannot facilitate their inclusion in the journey. However, many of our customers choose to entrust their pets to a family member or friend, embark on their adventure, and return home to wagging tails and furry cuddles.

What happens if I need to cancel my trip?

We know that life can get in the way of travel, so all our trips come with a great deal of flexibility. In most cases, if you cannot travel on your selected date, you can place your trip on hold to deal with whatever is holding you back, and continue in the future without incurring any penalty. You may also have the option of transferring to an entirely different trip and destination as well, or even transferring your trip to a friend or family member. In the event that you need to outright cancel your trip, if you give us 84* days notice you can do so with only a 50% cancellation fee. Your refund of the balance will come in the form of a Store Credit which you can put toward any other trip that we offer, including tours through third-party providers, as well as holidays through DealsAway.com, and is valid for 2 years from date of issue. As international travel can be complex, your options are based on the progress of your trip organisation and our support team can assist you in finding the best solution for your needs.
