More about our host hotels:

Varana Hotel, Krabi
An Impact Partner on the Tourism Cares Meaningful Travel Map of Thailand, Varana Hotel is a sustainability-driven retreat shaped by Thailand’s Bio-Circular-Green (BCG) model. The hotel uses reclaimed and locally sourced materials, with thoughtful design features like a groundwater banking system that cools the landscape naturally using bamboo and recycled components. Varana practices zero waste, sourcing food locally, growing herbs and vegetables on-site, and using chemical-free products throughout the property. Guests are encouraged to connect with local culture through artisan-made goods and community-based experiences that reflect the spirit of the region.

The Sukhothai Bangkok, Bangkok
The Sukhothai Bangkok integrates sustainability into every aspect of its operations, from replacing single-use plastics to implementing energy-efficient systems and composting organic waste. The hotel sources local ingredients for its kitchen and maintains an on-site herb garden to reduce its environmental impact. It also supports community engagement through partnerships with Thai artisans and cultural programs. The property blends modern environmental practices with traditional design, offering guests a thoughtful experience rooted in both responsibility and heritage.

Attendees should plan to depart their home country 1–2 days before the program begins, depending on their location. Complimentary airport transfers will be provided only from Krabi International Airport (KBV) to the Varana Hotel on September 6 and 7.

The main program concludes on the evening of September 12.  Complimentary transfers will be available from The Sukhothai Bangkok to both Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) and Don Mueang Airport (DMK) on September 13 only.

Attendees participating in a post-trip will have their return transfers coordinated directly by the tour operator.

Please note: Transfers outside the provided dates or to/from alternate locations must be arranged independently and will be at the attendee’s own expense.

September 13–16
