The holiday and work program

The program consists of 2 parts: a holiday part and a working part.

Holiday
Runs 'N Roses is located on a beautiful spot. You will be able to explore it's area the way you want it: with organized activities or by yourself. You can go trekking in the rain forest, explore caves (with and without bats), experience the river by long-tail boat, bamboo-raft, tube or swimming, walk the trails in the area by yourself, or go mountain-biking. You can even go horseback riding!

Or what about a cooking lesson, where you can learn to make the dishes of the real Thai cuisine? If you wish to relax you just stay in your room. The rooms have a garden, a river in front of your porch, a nice area to sit and plenty of privacy.

You name it: we've got it. And if we don't we can try to organize it ! You will have a great time at Runs 'N Roses.

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:
