Event Description:
Bangkok, one of the largest and most renowned cities in Thailand is on our horizon as we move on from Mumbai for the 15th installment of Destination Saturdays. Concluding our short visit to India, we will depart from Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport and make our way east towards Bangkok, aka “Venice of the East” and“Sin City of Asia,” known worldwide for its ornate shrines, floating markets, vibrant street life, hot climate and friendly people. This destination is guaranteed to be one of the best yet!

Some describe it as career mode for the world traveller at heart, while others say we’ve set out to finish what Amelia Earhart started.
