Culinary tours. The diversity of food and cooking styles in S.E.

Swim in warm crystal-clear waters, watch fishes of all hues frolic beneath you, be amazed at the many forms and colors of the corals, spot a giant turtle surfacing for air, or simply sunbathe on white powdery beaches without the crowds of Waikiki beach. How about spending four whole days on board a restored Chinese junk, sailing the aquamarine sea of Thailand’s western seaboard, snorkeling along the way, visiting deserted paradise islands, and dining under the stars?
