Gecko TravelGecko Travel is for those who wish to discover the real South East Asia, away from the well-trodden tourist trails and high-rise resorts. Whether you dream of the jungles and islands of Thailand, the remote Central Highlands of Laos or the wonders of Angkor Wat, we have the tour for you.

Our tours take you off the beaten track to trek, raft, canoe/kayak, snorkel on coral reefs, stay in tribal villages, picnic by spectacular waterfalls and hang out in hammocks. Small group sizes (<9) reflect our respect for the local cultures.

We happily tailor tours for groups, clubs, individuals or families with a particular interest - eg bird-watching, cycling or cooking.
