   A longtail boat trip

 

Sometimes the man in front has to jump out to steer the boat in the right direction.A longtail boat is "the true Thai river transport." Local people use these boats as a means of transport and travel in areas unreachable by cars. We organized a full day trip with one of the local people who will take his wooden boats to travel the rivers in the area.

You will be taken to one of the many rivers near Runs 'N Roses. There you will find a longtail boat waiting for you and you will go upstream. During the trip there will be some breaks to look around, swim, enjoy the scenery. Lunch will be taken at beautiful spot. Beaches that can only be reached by river.

When you arrive there you can take your time to relax, to swim and to enjoy the 'silence' of the jungle.

Halfway through the afternoon you will go back with the longtail boat (downstream, so without the engine) and you will be transported back to the starting point and from there back to Runs 'N Roses.

During this trip you can have encounters with animals, such as: birds (from eagles to sun-birds and many kingfishers), turtles, monkeys (gibbon-area), monitors (big lizards), an occasional snake, many butterflies and dragonflies, and so on.

Runs 'N Roses is set up to support the Thai Child Development Foundation financially.
Most foundations have a lot of "overhead", such as salaries for staff, office rent, supplies, daily life costs, transport to and from projects and so on. The concept of Runs 'N Roses supporting the TCDF prevents that 50% of the given donations to TCDF
would be spent on overhead. By staying in one of the bungalows or guest rooms of Runs 'N Roses, you help TCDF
in a constructive and lasting way. This will benefit all children involved with the foundation.

Runs 'N Roses cooperates with:
